No they're not available in sample size.
Hmm, Tears of Joy, it sounds like you and I have the same kind of vanilla-reaction thingie, so I'm thinking I should avoid the White. This post has been edited by luna65: Sep 25 2009, 03:14 AM -------------------- ...swing on the spiral

It may not be the vanilla per se but if it's a buttery type of vanilla, for example, then the dairy notes may not be playing nice. I know that happens to me sometimes with certain dairy accords. BBM did not like me at all. But other vanillas usually play nice, unless they're paired with honey or amber and then sometimes not. It's a very tricky thing, this scentual compatibility.

Right, so now I wonder what's in OCCO White that's not in BBM, because the former did not work on me while the latter is absolutely gorgeous.......

Hmmm in my case it's the other way around. The OCCO just turns foul on me (actually, it turns sour... like milk does
 ). BBM stays kinda ok but not as gorgeous as it starts out and it fades really quickly too...

It is one of the Vanillas. About a sour milk smell - the cops do that. Did you allow it to dry down without rubbing it or washing it off? I find when I rub on the cops before they dry, it ends up smelling like burning car tires on me.

I'm about to go thrift shoppin with my best friend and ex fiance, Eddie. We've been playin the Ramones and Gnarls Barkley(awesome gettin ready music), and I decided I'd give my OCCO RED a spin....
Its SSSSSSOOOOOOOOOOOOO YUMMMYYYYY..... I smell like an Etenmann's Cinnamon frosted crunch cake with copulins! My mood is boosted and I feel like a trouble maker. The smell IS gorgeous-must now get LP Red. But DAMN-This is GOOD! I'm all happy and feel like a sex goddess. Of course, i must behave. I texted my man and told him I miss him, which I do, but I'm ready to go run amok with Eddie. We've come full circle into friendship again, and as I've stated in my journal, I'm so glad for that. We can even talk about the opposite sex and the other one having a partner now-it's ok. So/He's rolling those big green eyes that I've known for 12 years in impaitence as I write-guess I better go. But What a lovely aroma and incredible-delictable mood boosting scent this is! I'm makeup free, with an old school tee and jean shorts on and I feel hotter than a Victoria's Secret Model. Hows that for Effecincy(yeah, I know, spell wizard.) Anyway-I'll be back later all. Gonna go smell great and enjoy the company of a boy that I've literally been through it all with and still managed to come out on top with-for it all I'm greatful. Talk to ya later! Much LOVE-Lori

I am SOOOOO ADDICTED to the scent of OCCO Black.....DAMN! It blends with my skin chemistry perfectly and blooms just when it needs to.....please ladies, don't ever stop making this scent!! I love LP Black, but Black Shield is like LP Black without the sticky sweet vanilla undertone......it is just dark, black, and UTTERLY SEXY.

Dearest DJac -
The OCCO Gold arrived today. You are my hero - this is better than Sugared Honeycomb or Pherogirl. Warm, lucious - dirty. It's sexier than any LP I've huffed before - If I could get LP gold with a musk undertone -I would hoard and swim/bathe/drink it. This would be my all purpose fav under nearly everything.... What an awesome scent... -------------------- All my best -

After Djac so generously blessed me w/ the red. A while back. I've played w/ the Red, love the Red! My only complaint is that when I put it on, I always end up showering it off. Due to the fact that the TT can't keep his hands off of me...& everything that leads to. Also, that I am in the mood too!-Be blessed ladies-

My three OCCOs came this week...first reactions:
OCCO White: Very yummy vanilla. I would say it's in the same family as Beth's Blushing Milkmaid, but they aren't the same scent. I'm always on the lookout for a pure vanilla, and a couple dabs of this and I'm good to go. Also great for layering...I layered a few dabs of this with Southern Gothic 2009 and it was fantastic. OCCO Blue: On me, this was the lightest of the three I tried, and also my fave. It's a soft powdery scent, but it smells like it came from nature rather than the baby powder aisle. I can smell the white and blue sugar now and then. Totally non-floral. I can see wearing this alone. I'll have to experiment to see what it layers well with. OCCO Red: Powerful, creamy cinnamon. An edible scent with great throw. Unfortunately it is not congruent with my personality. At all. I just have to admit I can't do cinnamon scents and move on. This will probably go up on my trading post next week. This post has been edited by Michele20: Oct 4 2009, 10:04 PM |

I tested Occo PINK today! Its Verrry nice, reminds me of LP pink 2009 almost to a "T".
Unforunately, I dont catch any whisps of lemon(I was sorta hopin for a pink lemonade scent here), but- I'm not dissapointed! I LOVE LP PINK! ALOT! Vanilla, pink sugar cotton candy-and not even a whiff of cops! Crazy!!! I adore it, just like most of the OCCO's I've tried so far. I NEED GREEN --if anyone doesnt like it, I dont have a trade post but my email is in my profile--I'm tryin to get it a few bucks off before I buy it full price. Same goes for GOLD--I own the rest...except blue, which I hear is a near dupe of Cuddle Bunny. Let Me know-I'll pay ya! As for Pink-I'm lovin it!-For a pink Lemonade? I'll try Ann's-or make make my own. Occo Pink is sweet candy, cakey, and perfect--verrrry sexy! |

I just got my bottle of RED...
Oh my gawd it's DELICIOUS!  Creamy vanilla and cinnamon everywhere... I'm in love  Wet on my skin I can smell the cops, but only if I sniff really hard, and it doesn't warp the smell too much. I could probably throw it on and head out the door without worrying. Now to see what my man thinks this weekend

I just tried White yesterday and it's really nice. I didn't know if I'd be able to smell it on me. It's a nice creamy note on me. Not so much vanilla though. Like a soft vanilla creme. Definitely nice with probably ANY blend. |

Well...
 he likes it. A lot. Lol.I wasn't able to spend much time with him because of his new crazy work hours... but I've seen him a few days this week and wore Red each day, either alone or layered. He's been... cough... rather frustrated. We'll be able to spend Halloween together, fortuantely  And of course he loves the smell! |
