People ship swaps in a padded mailer, usually with a couple of bags of tea or hard candies or stickers, etc. Wrap the imps in bubble wrap and tape up. Postage is usually about .54. Do not use those automated machines, because the PO charges extra for the thickness of the mailer and the machine doesn't add that.

Tiger Lily and Bliss did not work on me either. Kyoto, though, I like.

Want my Kyoto? I think you may have one or two imps already but your welcome to this one too if you'd like.

Thanks for the tips on the mailings too. If I go that route it's good info to have! :)

Alice sounds nice. I can't remember if it's on my list of stuff to try (which keeps growing).

Bliss is all chocolate. Like, really, all chocolate. Total hershey kiss out of the bottle, and then it turns into a chocolate scented candle. You know it's chocolate and you immediately THINK chocolate. But it's not chocolate. But...I left it on my hand. No nauseaking gak scent. Just a mild chocolate candle on my hand.

It seems like so much of what I try turns to baby powder on me. Different degrees of sweetness in the baby powder but they all seem to end up some varying form of baby powder at some point.

So far the ones that go on smelling like lemon pledge or cleaning supplies turn into something really nice on me. So it'll be worth getting over the lemon pledge thing.
