~PUBLICITY~

Edgar Allan Poe perhaps best captures goth sentiments: "From childhood's hour I have not been As others were--I have not seen As others saw." (Alone 1875)

For those of us who see not only the vase and the two faces of standard perception, but also cannot help but experience Otherworldliness, there is The Goth Rosary. What is a rosary but an object that, through bodily contact, allows us to undergo a magical transformation and enter the land of spirit. The Goth Rosary offers the next, necessary step for those who are so inclined--entrance to that shadowy realm of Otherworldliness. The land that nurtures the gothik.

Nice designs, plus site also has the unusual pic in the gallery where she's used a cemetery statue as a model for her wares. Cute key rings and dirto cheapo.

Cheers!

I received my Jasmine GothRosary and it is beautiful. It's the best thing because I don't have to wear perfume, it smells so sweet. I really love my purchase and I wear it all the time!

Review Of My Samhain Fragrance On MakeUpAlley!
Fragrances -> 2 Grrrls -> Goth Rosary -> Samhain
Reviewed by prsleanansidhe on 9/4/2003 8:14:00 PM (Rated 5 Lipsticks!)
This is a wonderful product. The smell is divine...redhots, pumpkin pie, with a dash of an "earthy" smell. AntiSally has an entire collection of unique scents that are *exactly* as she describes them on her site gothrosary.com. Perfect for anyone looking for something different to wear, something special for Halloween, or aromatherapy for goths. Exquisite.

CANDLES!~~I love Goth Rosary. I love AntiSally, she is the epitome of customer service with a smile. In particular, the Shadows and Samhain scents are very nice. Now she's offering candles in her scents. Buy some, damn it! www.gothrosary.com Support small, independent businesses with quality products - say f off to Yankee Candles! ~Lia

~*~*~

LOTION~~i recieved the lotions yesterday - thank you SO much!!! i'm so so so in love with them, they are amazing!!!! not only do they smell incredible, they make my skin SO soft!!!!
thank you thank you!!!!
love your newest convert,
stacy
P.S. seriously.. i've never had such awesome lotion! the scent is perfect - not too strong not too light! don't think i'm nuts if you see another order from me in the next day or two.. i'm addicted... ;)

~*~*~

SERVICE & FRAGRANCE~~I just wanted to say that I am thoroughly pleased with everything I have purchased from gothrosary.com. When I walk through a store and smell the horrific and stifiling odors that women are buying up in hoards, I'd like to die gagging! Your fragrances are like a breath of fresh air. They are pure and yet, so nostalgic. Every funeral, every gravesite, every crisp fall night...I can tie one of your scents to it. You have an uncanny ability to make PERFECT scents. I congratulate you on your success. It is well deserved. Not to mention your personal touch to every order. The candy and the little treats as a thank you, they aren't needed but very much appreciated. Your products speak for themselves. Thank you for your time.
Sincerely,
Jessica

~*~*~

ROSARY GOODS~~I ordered a choker/rosary from you around Christmas time. I must tell you, I wear it every day and I love it! Thank you so much, it was delivered fast just as I asked :). It was also nicely packaged, and I loved the candies, thank you! It was a pleasure to do business with you. Oh, and I adding you to my website in the links section & on the splash page so maybe you'll also get a few orders from my friends!
Talk to you later.
Jaymei

~*~*~

ROSARY GOODS & SERVICE~~ The products and amazing service keep me coming back... (I'm gonna look around and probably order something this weekend... I'm so bad...) Someone saw the choker today and asked where I got it. I handed them a card and they asked for another for their friend. She was obsessing over it, lol!
Luv Ya,
-Sneaky

~*~*~

SERVICE, FRAGRANCE, CONDITIONER & MIST~~Recieved the Samhain conditioner and body mist today (shipped so quickly!) Needless to say, I am very pleased. I've yet to be disappointed.
Thank you so much for your quality products and quality business! Your loyal customer,
Zoe

~*~*~

FRAGRANCES, SCENT SAMPLE PACK, CONDITIONER, WASH & MIST~~I have purchased (most convieniently btw) your samples line and then I decided I liked your Nocturnal so much, I decided I would try out the products.... I only got the mist, one wash, and two conditioners, as I have very long hair and conditioning is a pain.... Anyways, the day they arrived I immediately went to take a shower and try them all out... Now usually I use Herbal essences line for my bathing needs, and with Nocturnal being put into a water based line, as it leads me to believe from the package, I will admit I was skeptical that it might wash away with my shower water and fade a lot... !WRONG! I was absolutely entoxicated with the scent all throughout my shower.... When I got out and used the mist, I preceeded to toss every single shampoo bottle and body spray I own, into a box to give away to someone whom i could care less about how they smelled *evil grin*.. I was absolutely sold on your line!! But thats not all, I am also a cook at a local diner, and I have trouble keeping a scent with me throughout the day, as the foods overpower them... Oils were once my only means of keeping a scent with me, but no more! Your products stayed with me all day long, even as I awoke the next day i still smelled the scent... I cannot describe in words how enchanted I am with everything i recieved.. Everyone I came across that day gave rave compliments, and I babbled on about the whole line, I probably made people think I'm a motormouth...lol... Anyways, I know you have to be very busy since you are the apothecarial genius behind everything, but I just had to send you this email with the utmost praise and tell you, you are a GODSEND to my dark lifestyle, as are your products.. I will definitely be buying from you every time I get the chance... If there's anything I could to to show my appreciation, I would, gladly...
Big Hugs and much love be blessed upon you,
-Arydion, a new loyal customer :)

PRODUCTS, SCENT SAMPLE PACK, CHOKER, LOTION~~You should know that another lovely goth creature sent me your sample pack... such a fabulous idea! Without that, I probably would have never explored your creations. I had fun with the samples; I spread them out in a place of honor and selected a different one to wear every day based on the descriptions... some smell very different on a person than they do in the packets. I have at least 4 other scents I will be buying from you in the future. I also like the animal safe, etc. product. I feel good spending my cash on your creations rather than wandering down to bath and body works, which what I usually do to spoil myself a little! Also, I just got a brilliant package from the Mistress of _Morbid Outlook_ today which included one of your chokers (and more candy!!!)... I won the voodoo art contest and got a huge box of goth goodies from her. The choker and a bottle of your hand lotion were amongst the highlights. Thanks again, and I am am happy to support the efforts of another creative goth!

FRAGRANCE~~I have been wearing Tea and Sympathy to work since I received my order last week, and have gotten several compliments from my very vanilla co-workers. It is fabulous, as are Nocturnal and Dead on Chocolate, which made my husband comment: "Mmm..." No more department store perfume counters for me! Your product is the most unique offering in fragrance I've ever come across.
Katie

~*~*~

SCENT SAMPLES~~Received the scent strips yesterday, and placed an order for the full line of Crypt scent skin care products today. I could smell the wonderful difference between the fragrances. I encourage you to keep up the good work!!! :)

~*~*~

FRAGRANCE & WASH~~I wanted to tell you I really like Can't Wait Demeter. I even like the pun. It first smelled really berry to me when I opened it, but when I washed with it, the scent became more spicy and reminded me of fall. It's great! You are awesome. Thank you so much! :) I love your products. :)

~*~*~

ROSARY~~I couldn't believe how wonderful your site was when I stumbled across it looking for Rosaries on Google. Your services are everything I never knew I needed. I've always wanted a Rosary with a real Celtic feel to it but all the ready made "Irish-esque" Rosaries I found online never quite felt right to me. Your vision has made it possible to create one out of components I choose! You even have the perfect box to hold it in. I'm very excited about all this and can't wait to see it! My mind is now swimming with ideas for other Rosaries.

~*~*~

ROSARY~~I opened the box this morning and it's great! Thanks again for everything you did. I'll be getting in touch soon for more stuff. I have another Rosary idea and I'll be trying out your scent sampler!
Love & Hugs to you,
J

HOLY HANDKIE~~Hi AntiSally, I haven't logged onto to your website in awhile, I know "shame on me!!!!!" Hey AntiSally, James and I are Byzantine Catholics, in short, we are part of the Roman Catholic Church. I read with sorrow what "Saint Michael" said in regards to you mocking "Roman Catholicism" and I know "Saint Michael" and I more than likely read the same Bible and it does say still to this day, "Judge not! Lest thou be judged!" Spoken by Christ himself! I'm not a Theologian, don't want to be, but I am still a loyal customer of your products and yes, I'll be ordering again soon! Maybe "Saint Michael" should buy all of your Holy Hankies himself if he finds your products offensive! Your products are still great and I'm glad I logged on, had to let you know there are Catholics out here in the world that do not find your items in bad taste! By the way, have a Happy Valentines Day!!! Yours always, Scott and James.

~*~*~

FRAGRANCE~~I have received my items in the mail, and as usual they are just wonderful! The scent smells so much better than it did on the sample card... I just love it! I keep smelling my wrists and hair surreptitiously. Thanks again.
I remain your faithful customer,
m.

~*~*~

SERVICE, WASH & CONDITIONER~~Just wanted to let you know I got my order and am ASTOUNDED at how great everything is (and all of the fun gifts you threw in!) I used the shampoo/body wash and conditioner today and my hair looks fabulous and smells even better. I haven't had time to try the sample yet but I can't wait to, and I will pass them along to some other scent junkie. Your prices are great - I'm trying verrrry hard to restrain myself from buying more things, but wanted to let you know I will definitely be shopping with you in the future and will be singing your praises left and right! Thanks again,
Alli

~*~*~

PRODUCTS & SERVICE~~I received my shipment last night. I could not believe how fast you shipped my items. I love the mist sprays. I sprayed myself at 7:00am and it is now 2:47pm and I still smell great. I am using Nocturnal in my car and I am wearing Shadows (and I have gotten some really great comments today from a couple of young men). The little extras you included in the shipping goes way above normal business practices. I am impressed. I will buy again soon and I am telling everyone I know about your fabulous products and incredible service. And I mean INCREDIBLE. Thank you Antisally!!
Lisa

~*~*~

ROSARY~~The bracelet made it here safely yesterday! it's absolutely wonderful! i've already gotten many comments on it, and i'm spreading your name around like the Black Plauge. ;> thank you so much, and i'll definately be ordering again in the near future! much love,
_Valerie

~*~*~

FRAGRANCE~~I love, love LOVE the Crypt fragrance. It's so beautiful and evocative. I have worn it each day since I received the package (very quickly by the way!). I will be ordering more fragrance from you in the future.
Thanks again!!
Jesse

ROSARY~~My Goth Rosary arrived in yesterday's mail, and I am wearing it today with its new talisman attached. Thanks so much! It is perfect & is one of my favorite pieces of jewelry.. I'll be wearing it almost every day :)

CONDITIONER~~Hi AntiSally - I received three more of your delicious hair conditioners yesterday. I can't tell you how happy I am that I found this product. It is truly my "Holy Grail Conditioner". Thank you so much.(and my hair thanks you too!)
Hugs, Lynda

~*~*~

SERVICE~~I just wanted to say, "Thank you!!!" Everything is gorgeous and it was so nicely packaged...I'm in love!
Have a great weekend...
Leslie :)

~*~*~

FRAGRANCE & SCENMT SAMPLE PACK~~I am in love with most of your fragrances! I bought the sample card package and they were most wonderful. Im really looking forward to getting these lovely, dark, and sophisticated fragrances. I really liked Samhain, which might be one of your "foodier" scents. Also, the cannabis note in Heathen really cracks me up. Sincerely,
Kim

~*~*~

PRODUCTS & SERVICE~~You have come to my attention thru internet friends and you are highly recommended for your personal touches, excellent customer service and quality goods. The pleasure was mine, I am truly looking forward to recieving your shipment, based on your service alone, you can expect repeat business.
I do truly appreciate you!
Enjoy the rest of your weekend!
Lindsey

~*~*~

ROSARY~~The Jasmine Rosary arrived this weekend, and I just wanted to say - it's lovely! And it smells wonderful, too! So, thanks again for another beautiful and unique rosary - you're the best!
:)annie

~*~*~

SCENT SAMPLE PACK~~I received my samples today, and OH MY GODDESS I am in luv! My favorite is SAMHAIN, but I love NOCTURNAL and DERVISH too. I am definitely ordering. I have to say that your creations are delicious , Antisally. As soon as the mail arrived today, I let all my friends know and they all came over just to whiff these odiferous delights, and immediately wanted to know how to order. My best friend is definitely placing an order. Anyway thank you so much for the great service and the most original scents I've ever had the pleasure of sniffing!
Nikki

~*~*~

FRAGRANCE~~The smells really are original - and they seem to have such an eerie natural quality, reminiscent of the way spending some time in a certain situation (leaves, cinnamon candy, smoke, rain, incense, excitement, tea, wind, other people's perfumes blending in the air) will permeate one's clothing, hair, and body with layers of notes. The way they're blended makes them complex, and they take on - I don't know, they seem to absorb other notes from "around."
I must admit that your getting into this was a good call, good instincts, and it's making some people's lives better - because of the theme going on, maybe more than a few chronically depressed or traumatized folks, too. Transforming alienation into real fun.

~*~*~

ROSARY & SCENT SAMPLE PACK & FRAGRANCE~~I had thought this letter needed to be hand-written in honor of the personal care you take in your business, but since sitting and writing out a letter is nearly impossible in my life you get an e-mail. I purchased a rosary bracelet in October. Beautiful work. It arrived in time to me to get pictures done with it (for my church directory). All who see it compliment and I pass the word along. I intent to have a collection of rosary items.
When I purchased my bracelet, I also got the fragrance testers. I love several and then came back to buy the Samhain mist. Mmmmm. Gramma even loves it. ("What you got on that smells so good?") But I do lament why I didn't know about you BEFORE I bought the $50 strawberry/ raspberry/ greens swill that is marketed by a pop tartlet! I could have bought 5 bottles of Fairy Wings!!!
Thank you also for having products that are safe to use. I prefer products that are chemical-free. You must have angel wings attached.
Yours,
Andrea

~*~*~

LOTION< CONDITIONER & FRAGRANCE~~It's been a couple of weeks since I got my order from you, but I just wanted to say a belated thanks! Oh how I'm loving my Wicked lotion...it's so damn delicious...and I want to eat my Vanilla Hell conditioner!
Thanks again!
Lisa

~*~*~

SERVICE & CONDITIONER~~I just wanted to say thank you for your great communication, fast shipping, and wonderful products.
I used Graveyard hair conditioner this morning and my normally dry/curly/processed hair is soft and tangle free. I can't stop touching it : ).
I look foward to trying other products very soon!
Thanks,
Debbie

~*~*~

ROSARY GOODS~~I am just... I have no words. The rosary is more beautiful than I could have imagined... thank you so much! I honestly had tears in my eyes when I opened the file and had to show the picture to Ben and Mum right away! I think the silver and white have an almost ethereal beauty together... and the bracelet is so delicate...They're just perfect. I love them all. Thank you, thank you!
I'm honestly speachless, Sally. It's just beautiful.
Thank you,
-Laura

~*~*~

ROSARY~~I absolutely love the skull Rosary!!! It's perfect! Ever since I was little I've been intrigued by Rosaries. I liked the way they looked, how the beads felt in my hands and there was just something mystical about them. I loved the normal ones but you have opened up a whole new world. Like I said before, you are everything I never knew Ineeded! Thank you.

~*~*~

SERVICE~~I just wanted to let you know that I received your package today! (thank you so much! everything came beautifully packaged and intact! I am so happy and thank you for all the little extras - the sticker and the sweets)
Thank you for your excellent customer service and those personal touches - you have a repeat customer here!

~*~*~

SKULL COMB, KEEPSAKE BOX, MIST~~I got the order of the skull comb, keepsake box and Dervish mist today and am pleased as always! The box is VERY impressive(Remember way back when you were first going to carry them and I said I was getting one?), it has so much detail. The people that paint them are talented.
The comb is cute, and the spray is spectacular like the others I've tried. :)
Much thanks for another batch of fun stuff!
~Jessica

~*~*~

CONDITIONER & SERVICE~~Just wanted to let you know I've been enjoying the two condtioners I got from you a few days ago! They have a really nice consistency and are easy to comb through my hair (which is long and finely textured).
I also really like the ingredients that you use in your products which is why I was drawn to them in the first place. I've been trying to avoid harsh detergents in my hair care products and soaps because they dry out my skin and hair.
So thanks again for great products and great service! I also just posted a little review on a forum.
Thanks again,
Lisa

~*~*~

I just recieved my fragrance, shampoo, and conditioner, and like everything else I have recieved from you so far, the product is TOP quality and is just simply amazing! Your work and service, the crafts you offer are a true dark gift to the Gothic community, and I truely LOVE and appreciate all you do! Thank you for making such wonderful dark products!

~*~*~

The order came yesterday... thank you! I was suprised by theshampoo/bodywash. It's REALLY nice and works so much better with theconditioner than what I was using! *fluffs her hair like she's in a tvcommercial* ;) I adore being enveloped in scent... hurrah forlayering!The rosary is stunningly beautiful, and the bracelet is so delicateand lovely... thank you so much, Sally. They're perfect. The firstthing I did was clip the keychain to my bag! *laughs*I love that the rosary is big enough for me to wear. It wasn't,originally... it's just so ethereal and lovely!But I'm really loving the bracelet... it's just so... ME! :D I don'tthink I shall ever take it off. :) You're so amazing!My Mum has blatantly stolen my Dervish conditioner and I think I feela joint-order coming on...Sick of me yet? ;)Oooh, and thank you for the blue poof! It's been ages since I had anew one and I'm feeling very spoilt!all my love,-L
