April 21st
After much anticipation, Act II of our Moxie Burlesque Revue is now open to the public! Created by Melissa of Lathers N Lights and illustrated by our very own Rafaella Ryon, our second stage performance promises to be even better than the last.
Belle La DonnaShe's
funny, sassy, and just a little bit lewd. Behind Belle LaDonna's killer
full figured curves lies a wicked sense of humour and a heart of gold.
Her blend is a deceptively sweet whisper of creamy lavender milk
tempered by vanilla orchid and gardenia...pretty and feminine.
Chastity BlazeSweet
Chastity is sure to tempt with her dark eyes and jet black curls,
evoking pure animal magnetism in her practised belly dance. Her
movements are the whisper of skirts, the wind of a whirling veil and
softly...the chime of bells. Dark, juicy cherry, plum, and berries
tempered with spices, musk, vanilla, and velvety sandalwood.
Dolly MixtureTough
rockabilly exterior with a candy sweet center, Dolly Mixture leaves
broken hearts behind in every city. Don't let those white blonde curls
and smear of girlish pink lipstick fool you--she's got lips that lie
and boots that will walk all over you. Bubbly and sweet just like her
fragrance of lemon, lime, orange, raspberry, and currants sprinkled
with sugar crystals.
Honey SinclairThis
dark skinned queen of the rink can do it with her skates on and never
break a sweat. A true original rollergirl, Honey Sinclair glides across
the stage effortlessly. She spins and twirls, beauty in motion blurred.
As her song ends, she allows one quick but brilliant smile. A golden
goddess redolent with notes of toasted honey, milk, and nectar of a
dozen flowers.
Jade FoxPrepare
to be dazzled by our jewel from the East, the stunning Jade Fox. She
glides across the stage in traditional white makeup and patterned
kimono of most exotic silk. Her dance is grace, personified. The
ancient art of the Geisha comes to life in this floral oriental blend
of sparkling green tea, powdery jasmine, ginger, and rice milk.
We have also introduced whipped scrubs and body butter to the general catalogue! Check out our new sections for delectable goodies...guaranteed to smell good enough to eat! Though we strongly advise against it. There's more on the horizon here at Moxie...stay tuned!
April 9th
Just a short update this time around to whet your appetites while we complete a full line of new products to launch quite soon. Unfortunately this means that some of our current products will be discontinued to make room for the new arrivals. As of next update, we will no longer carry glycerin soaps by Annika. Stock up on your favourites while you can! Due to customer demand, we have also updated our shipping rates for perfume purchases. This is especially beneficial to our many American shoppers! As ever we strive to listen to all customer input, so if you have any questions or suggestions, feel free to use our contact link.
This month we welcome five new fragrances from our friends at Lathers N Lights.
Almond MarzipanA blend of sweet, rich, thick honey with tiny hints of light chocolate and luscious sweet
almonds. Slight notes of cinnamon and coconut are tucked into a fabulous thick vanilla crème!
Chai TeaThis highly aromatic spiced tea is a very complex
mixture of spicy cinnamon bark, cloves, ginger, cardamom and nutmeg in
a body of fresh green tea with bottom notes of rich and creamy milk.
Cupid's KissAll things sweet simply must be found in Cupid's
Kiss...frosted sugar cookies, fluffy marshmallow, and sweet pink
cupcakes, along with notes of sugar-coated coconut and wisps of cotton
candy form the sweetest scent for your sweetie.
Sugared VioletsA beautiful blend of sugar-dipped violets, vanilla musk,
and hints of Chambord. Sweet and not too heavy on floral notes.
Tahitian DaiquiriTake a summer vacation at any time or place with this
luscious tropical cocktail of coconut, pineapple, mango, papaya, and
cherry. We are now also offering natural deodorant crystals in the general catalogue. The salts and minerals absorb odours at the source, and are totally irritant-free.

This month marks the beginning of a new limited edition fragrance collection, the Moxie Burlesque Revue! We've signed on a host of guest perfumers who will be creating burlesque themed scents over the course of the next few months. Our first set is a collection from Jojoelle as illustrated by our new Moxie resident artist, Rafaella Ryon. Rafaella is an incredibly talented artist hailing from Brazil, and we are so lucky to have her on board.
Our perfumes have no alcohol content. Instead, they are diluted with natural oils that sink into the skin, leaving a fragrance that will last all day. Five new blends make up our first Revue act.
Dixie Leigh
Bold and intoxicating, yet soft and subtle, this tassel twirler is glamorous and suggestively flamboyant. Heavy-lidded eyes draw you in, smouldering with promise of things to come. Her dance is frantic, a whirl of royal blue, imperial violet and long blonde hair. She is poetry in motion, breathtaking to behold. Bergamot, apricots, and marigolds are accented with vanilla absolute, soft musk and sweet amber, with a touch of Mysore sandalwood.
Lucy Button
Sophisticated and velvety vanilla liquor meets Italian amaretto and pink sugared Satsuma mandarins for this sensuous fan dancer. Flicking her trademark fans with effortless abandon, her girlish smile gleams enticingly as she parades across the stage. You can almost feel Lucy's graceful coral feathers as she struts past you with a fabulous sparkle.
Miss Fortune
Captivating hoop dancer and quite the cute temptress, Miss Fortune will pull you in with her bold curves and sexy stilettos! She is a harlequin vision of green and gold, body a blur and hoops spinning round and round. Her dance is one of delight, reckless and free. Notes of vanilla orchid, sensual amber, and dark chocolate truffles, infused with orange blossom water.
Ruby Savage
Tantalizing fire dancer Ruby is fierce and fiery, her eyes alight with flames. Her twirling torches reach a fever pitch, mezmerizing all who dare to look upon her. This Savage queen is the essence of sparkling ginger and soft heliotrope blossoms, always ending her night with a tart ruby red grapefruit martini and a twist of sugared lime.
Sidney Deville
Dark. Mysterious. Hot. She's a seductive snake charmer, her every move keeping you enthralled. As she concludes her dance she exits soft as a whisper, and it's only by her scent that you know she was ever there at all. Notes of Indonesian sandalwood, Egyptian musk, amber, and black pepper, with supporting notes of cedarwood, patchouli, bergamot, galbanum, citrus, spices, and ambergris.
There are also five new general catalogue scents from Jojoelle in our fragrance category.

Drama Queen
A mouth-watering explosion of juicy watermelon, mandarin orange, passion fruit, golden marigolds, green apples, water hyacinth and fresh crushed green leaves with middle notes of tuberose, wild roses and lilies. Tempered with luscious drydown notes of creamy vanilla, caramel, precious woods and patchouli. |
|
Jadis
Simmering, sultry and earthy blend of patchouli, frankincense, myrrh, sandalwood, vanilla, musk, and a hint of rose. |
|
Pink Vanilla
Swirly, girly, and oh so sweet pink sugar coupled with a dollop of vanilla cream! |
|
Tahitian Passion
A rich and tropical blend containing tart and fruity top notes of pineapple, lemongrass, and coconut, brought together by the sheer beauty of the Tahitian tiare flower. | Vanilla Ambre
Silky Vanille Ambre subtly melds with your own personal scent, creating a
new captivating you behind. Very complex blend of four vanillas and
three ambers.
Please note that our Possets exclusive, Sugar Puss, is currently out of stock. However, more will be available shortly. Our african black soap, Naturel, is also currently out of stock.
There's loads more on the horizon here at Moxie. Check back soon, and have a fabulous month!
January 8th
Happy new year, friends! It's been a stellar time for us so far, and here it is only eight days into 2008. Our Possets exclusive, Sugar Puss, has been met with such positive reviews, thanks to everyone who has tried it and left feedback. We love hearing from you! This month Moxie unveils a new limited run exclusive from Heaven and Earth Essentials, plus four new general catalogue blends.
BLISSEDA man had given all other bliss,
And all his worldly worth for this,
To waste his whole heart in one kiss
Upon her perfect lips.
The rush of new, blind, faithful love; Buttercream accord, Mysore sandalwood, cocoa absolute, carnation, Egyptian musk accord, neroli, yuzu, and irish cream.
VOODOO PUNANI
It's why pretty women drink free martinis and fat old men buy Lamborghinis. It's got grip, it's got power, it's the only reason why men buy flowers. An intoxicating blend containing buttercream, sandalwood, and saffron.
BLACK CAT
Soft, beautiful, and nothing but trouble. Don't let her cross your path! Black Cat is smooth, aged patchouli with sandalwood, orange blossom, and buttercream. Subtle and sexy, for day or night.
HEART LOLLIPOP
You can learn a lot from a lollipop. This cute little candy is packed with fruity fun! Spun sugar with candy floss, buttercream and a splash of sandalwood.
TORTURED PUMPKIN
Who says pumpkin is for Autumn? We're sweet and spicy all year round. Delectable toasted pumpkin with marshmallow, maple sugar, vanilla sugar and brown sugar. Poor pumpkin. But what a way to go!
Check out our soaps section for a sale on all our handmade glycerin soaps (cause what is new year's without a sale?!) and if you're feeling chatty, head on over to etailerbuzz.com, run by our own lovely webmistress Joni. Moxie will be sponsoring a contest kicking off over there very soon, for the chance to win a little bit of spendy money for the website. Free money! Who says you can't get something for nothing? That's all for this month, but next month...well you'll just have to wait and see. Have a lovely January!
-Moxie
