On its way to Baltimore along with a batch of padded envelopes from the ninety plus distro.
(Don't worry, I put it in a different mail bin from the rest)

Nice! Thanks.

Back to the green peas, I thought I caught a whiff of it/them in some spent grounds the other day. That aroma does have a way of getting into your head!

The smelly box goes out tomorrow. I'm adding two scents, #12 (coffee blossom) and #13 (coffee pulp)--siphoned a few drops of each from the official aromas in my stash and added them to some tiny vials I found online. The pic below should help identify them. Enjoy!

p.s. Just noticed that all replacement aromas are listed as out of stock at Espresso Parts until Feb. 2013: http://www.espressoparts.com/LENEZDUCAFE_RP

I believe the road show is in transit to me.  Holidays had us both a bit busy.

It's just so quiet, I expected more complaining!

Roadshow arrived today. The box smells like garden soil with faint whiffs of pine. If the schmells are anything like the box this will be interesting to work through.

Okay,  Worked through the whole set twice. Just wrote down all the schmell's without the numbers and placed the bottle on the smell.  It's actual pretty easy to not see the numbers. And the overlapping numbers are different colors so sorting them out afterwards is easy.  Besides the 6 bottles in the Le Nez Du Cafe set this was my first time through the set.

Finally getting the chance to post my comments on this road show offering. I have to admit that this was probably one of the most interesting road shows I have participated in. Myself and a couple of coworkers went through the vials and tested each scent. I really like the coffee blossom. There were also some pretty funky samples in the mix. I did find it odd the the green pea to be the most intense and lingering of all the smells. I never knew peas were so ... um ... fragrant.

I noticed today that I can no longer smell garden pea fragrance in my car!  (the magic ratio seems to be 7 car fresheners)
