Is anyone else sitting on their hands until the sale starts? 😆

Plans so far

OCCOs:

Mocha

Orange Droolious

Raspberry Rhapsody 

Buttercream Lemon

may add Sandalwood, Sage, and Myrrh and OCCO: White to the list

YESSSS ! I am literally driving myself mad with it...no joke, I have like spreadsheets going, kinda like ' Here's my order if THIS scent will be included on the free list & I'm in time to claim it, here's a list if they don't have that scent but if they have this other scent, etc, etc...because I am ordering like 5 of the new OCCO's & I want to coordinate different scents with them 🤣 My original plan was  to set aside $100 for the sale. Then, the new OCCO list came out, I'm like okay, I'll up that to $150. Nope, now I'm up to $250 🤣 With spreadsheets & all kinds of different lists. I feel like I'm losing it, lol. But it's also so exciting ! Your OCCO list is badass, btw ! I'm doing orange & the raspberry too, plus Lavender Buttercream, Butterscotch & cherry. Among other things.

Absolutely! I have been resisting ordering early all day. Last year, I panic ordered before the sale, then realized that I should have waited. I am contemplating getting a full set because I like everything except for possibly the Resinate because of the patchouli. Unsniffed, I think that Butterscotch is my favorite.  I am thinking about a bottle of OCCO Ambrosia, too because I don't have a bottle of the 2018 one - just a sample. 

I knew the sale was coming & still ordered 3 bottles in the past month & I'm kicking myself now, so I feel ya on that

If you'd like to see the notes, they are now posted here:

https://luvpotionperfume.com/shop/21642631/new-releases

 

They will be up on the new site within a day or two.

 

A portion of all sales from this set will be donated to the following charities:

ACLU
NAACP
Feeding America
The Trevor Project
Planned Parenthood
The Human Rights Campaign

Native American Rights Fund
The Southern Poverty Law Center
Natural Resources Defense Council
The National Immigrant Justice Center

 

A total of 10 charities for each of the 10 OCCO varieties. As such, we are giving you the option to join us and add $1 to the price of your bottle if you wish. When you see this option, "***+ Donate" it means you are opting to add a dollar per bottle (or bottle's worth of perfume) for charity.

 

Additionally there will be a separate Auction running concurrent with the sale to benefit the charity, RAICES.

Thank you for joining us in donating!

 

 

 

Great charities ! Love this. And the notes sound amaaaaazing.... I thought that I finally narrowed it down to two of those, at least for now, til I read the notes. Now I realize that I do in fact need 5 of them ASAP.

Thanks for all your suggestions! I will start with a tiny swipe in ,my cleavage and see how it goes from there. 

That's a good point! I'm in my 20s so I'll be careful . 

One of the things I like about pheros and LPs is that they help bring out different facets of myself. (Like I FEEL different wearing LP Pink than I do wearing LP Red, or something with SWS, for instance.)  So maybe cops will help bring out my inner vamp. 

 

😆 I hear you! I love the freedom of being single. Ooh, OCCO White sounds like it would layer beautifully with almost anything...although I'm worried that if the OCCO smells too good I will be tempted to put on more!

I am definitely enjoying being single ! But....I may be ready for some casual fun, lol. So let's just say that these new OCCO's are just in time, at least I hope. And yes, the vanilla OCCO is my favorite, & there were a few times where I may have over - slathered

Is there any way to wear cops more for self effects or for an extra sparkle without of coming off as full on sexual?  I'd like a more slinky vibe but "LET'S HAVE SEX" in big neon letters is not congruent with my personality (I'm more of a LFM girl), and I want to avoid some of the incidents described in this thread! Maybe a tiny dot of a phero-enhanced fragrance?  Would that be closer to "natural cops" levels instead of "do me now" cops levels? Everyone seems to be having so much fun with the OCCOs and I want to at least TRY cops!  I'm single right now though, so no one to use cops for besides myself. 

Since I swore off dating for the past couple of years ( until I learn how to choose my men better 🤣 ) that's how I primarily wear my OCCO 's & anything with cops. I love to pair a small bit of OCCO White with sooo many things. A bit on my wrists or cleavage. Never had any issues ! Definitely hits, though.

Look for ones with a light Spring honey. Most people who can’t wear regular heavier smuttier honeys can do those. Mara doesn’t have that note available at the moment so look for older releases with it. I can be pretty sensitive to the smutty honeys and have definitely experienced the cat pee phenomenon as well and that Light spring honey note has never let me down or given me any of those issues. 

That is great to know, thank you so much for the suggestion ! I'll look for those in the future, when they are available

Honey usually smells like cat pee on me ?? I hate that so bad because I like honey scents on the bottle, but my skin just doesn't get that love back. The only exception to that is when it's blended with very heavy fruits.... Drive By Shooting was delicious on me & I believe that it has honey. Same With Super Happy Funtime. But honey forward scents are a no go for me

I bought a bottle of Eow - the plain stuff - wow I can hardly wear it- but I do - I read in another post just a dot above the pubic bone front and back as a  guide 

I got a HoneyedLP with gotcha - has a very strong odor 

and I got RedLace also has the odor

 

but I am wondering if  I am too sensitive to the odor and the guys like it 

You may have a sensitive nose, because I definitely cannot smell them in the Red Lace, but I do in my OCCO White, while wet...but it dries down to a delicious, rich vanilla, at least to my nose ! I have a trial of Tsunome ( EoW in a banana / cocoa butter scent ) that I cannot detect any off smell, even wet, just a beautiful, tropical scent. I had trials in OCCO's Red & Pink too with no cops smell ( not to my nose, anyway ) & I have a trial of Black that I don't use because the scent is not for me, but again, no cops detected there either

I know nothing about OCCO's - what should I know  - do they need a second layer of cover? are they as strong as EoW?

OCCO's are strongly scented, so they are copulins, but with a rich scent, to cover them. They still need dry down time, but they are basically cops + cover scents in one bottle. They are great !!

It's three times as strong as the phero-enhanced perfumes - like the UNs.

Oh, NICE !! That is badass ! I am definitely going to try that option for the sale & future orders... Idk why I always assumed that it was 1/3 like the others ? Thank you so much for replying 😃

This is probably a really dumb question & I hope it's okay to ask it here ( I didn't want to bug Mara with this when she's so busy preparing for the sale ) but when you choose the option to add a phero to a perfume on the site, is the ratio the same as the perfumes that contain a phero ( Red Lace, for example ) or is it different ? I'm just curious because I never chose this option & I'm strongly considering it for the sale.

I'm sorry. Not true. We had a malfunction on the website a couple weeks ago with that world wide hack. We lost the drop down entirely and it had to be added back from scratch. The programmer didn't know which ones shouldn't be on the list. I didn't even know they had gotten to that job until I saw your email @StrawberryKitten  Thank you for that. I messaged them to update the list. Sorry kids! 

Ah, I was wondering if it was something along those lines....thank you for clearing that up ! There are still so many great pheros & those amazing new OCCO's to look forward to, so yay, regardless !!

If I get an answer, I'll let you guys know right away !

I know! I have a bottle, but may stock up during the sale if it's not going to be permanent. 

I also asked her about the drop down options on the new site ( the adding a phero option ) because they include Bang, SS4W, & Gotcha. I hit one with SS4W to see what would happen & it said in stock ? I may cry from excitement if those are back. Or spritz on some Lace & do a little dance, lol

BANG is back in stock!!!

https://luvpotionperfume.com/listing/518160590/bang-unscented-pheromone-blend-for-women

I literally just emailed Mara about that to see if it was a mistake ? I may literally die from excitement if it's really back, I missed out on it !

OMGGGGG like 5 of those are screaming my name !!! And as always, those labels are TDF

What a cool idea! I only wish I could smell this combo... Will have to consider that the next time I order another Pink. Thanks for the recommendation!!

Let us know how you like it ! It's probably my fave Lace pairing, aside from LP Red Lace

I forgot until recently how much I love LP Pink. I added my almost full bottle to my UN Lace spray, when it got down to around 1/3 full, & I've been spraying it on lately, enjoying the cloud of Pink Lace.....they're the perfect couple

The sale will have it’s own thread. Trust me it needs it. She just posts the rules first so people can start getting familiar with them before the actual sale goes up which is always NUTS!

I can't even imagine how crazy it gets, lol. But so exciting !! Thanks so much for replying !

I was looking for it last night but I didnt see it.....

It's under the sale section, it may look confusing at first because I think the date says 2014 ? But she edited the very first post on there for the upcoming sale. It's a huge post that explains the rules clearly

I saw it & have been reading it off & on all day, so that I can get it through my ADD brain & not drive y'all insane with questions, lol. When it said that the list of items will be available, does that mean in the same post or another thread entirely, in that section ?

I'm just dying to see which OCCO's made the cut ! I was thinking of ordering mostly permanent collection items but idk now, these OCCO's are killing me with excitement !! I'm thinking now that I may end up with mostly OCCO's for the sale order, cause it isn't like the permanent collection is going anywhere. Especially if the Lavender Buttercream from the FB poll made the cut, & if Body Paint is on the list because that is sounding good with a phero. Okay, I need to calm the hell down because I'm getting way too ahead of myself here. This sale in taking over my brain ( in a very pleasant, albeit frantic way )

I am going GAGA waiting for the August Sale.... is anyone else on the edge of your seat?  My list keeps changing  adding, subtracting, adding again 

It feels like I have been waiting for a million years 

YES, on all counts, lol. I am about to glue my hands to something, so that I can stop ordering. I ordered LP Original last week + a trial of Cougar, which I love, but got a sniffie of Cougar Panther, remembered I love that & ordered a FB the other night, lol. I keep yelling at myself like, damn, that could have been another free bottle, but I literally cannot stop ! I'm addicted to LPMP, what can I say ? I still plan on an order where I'll get 2 or 3 free bottles though, so it's all good. And the OCCO's are screaming my name lately, especially the choc - cherry. 

For the sale, Original Love Potion, Love Potion Red, OCCO Red, & Cougar. Who am I kidding, I'm sure I'll add to that by then. I loooove my Red Lace, but I'm craving an un - boosted Love Potion Red to pair with OCCO Red & my UN - LFM this fall ( possibly for a delicious man that I hope to be spending some time with by then, shhhh ). And I'm tired of knocking scented Cougar off of my list & then regretting it, so I need to finally keep her in my cart this time. 

Just now, Potion Master said:

 

I will post the rules a week before the sale starts so everyone has time to familiarize themselves with them without stress. If you have 4 bottles in your cart right now, the sale would earn you an additional 2 free bottles from a long list of available choices. The sale will be on for 2 weeks this year. I am aiming for Aug 1st thru the 15th.

Oh, that sounds AMAZING !! I may wait, then & thank you so much for the reply ! You are spoiling us like crazy, first the flash sale, then this, lol. Cannot wait 😃

Can anyone give me an idea of how the summer sale works ? I started ordering like right after last year's, so I have no clue how it works, & I was planning an order for next week, because I recently fell in love with my trial of original Love Potion, after it aged a bit, so I have about 4 things in my cart...would it be worth waiting for the sale, or should I place that order with the regular 10 percent discount & then place another during the sale ? I'm fine with either, I can never have too many potions 🤣 Just trying to figure this out & plan accordingly 😏

Wild Cherry OCCO would be incredible.  I could only hope for it!  I realized just now  many of the notes I listed are also in Wild Cherry description.  

Can I conjure up all of my personalities in order to second, third, fourth, fifth, etc, etc...this ?? Because an OCCO on the order of what Wild Cherry was would DEFINITELY be something that I would be all over like it was Charlie Hunnam...
