  1. Revisited elementary for men.It still smells really nice but strangely enough the tobacco note is much more prominent now.Still a fun scent to play with,its a very tobacco musk vibe to it now.Something you could probably see sherlock holmes wearing as he puffed away on his pipe while solving his next case.Tried using it as a cover for phero's but its a little on the mild side and didnt cover them very well so looks like my big bottle is most likely going to be LP Homme and he dad for men replacement when it comes out in september.As a scent,its definitely nice though(^_^) Looks like im going to need to revisit all my scents since they seem to be making minor changes to themselves.The joy of new discovery :P

  2. Lol,was playing with a strip of roberts attacked in the stacks and lp homme yesterday.Interestingly enough,the smells have changed a bit.Guess its the aging like fine wine ^_^ Either that or im storing them badly,lol. :P Interestingly enough attacked in the stacks seems to smell more musky and less vanilla now and lp homme has a more distinct coffee smell to it.Going to have to play with my toys more often to savor the transition.

  3. My mums quite likes her sample of this that i gave her.She says she saves it for nice occasions so that its not wasted.Ive smelt it on her a few times,its a pretty light musk with a bit of green.Think its moss or bamboo but i could be wrong since dont trust my perfume nose that much. :P Its a pretty pleasant scent that makes you smile when you smell it,it also seems to have a strangely calming feel to it.Feels a little like zen garden to me but a lot more subtle.Its a strong yet subtle scent which seems like it would be good in any environment. She hasnt noticed the pheromone effects but think she wears very little when she puts it on,either that or shes not sure what to look for(>_<) Overall its a pretty nice scent but my mum said she would like something a bit stronger on the musk so hopefully the vintage musk i ordered for her will fit the bill ^_^

  4. Hahaha... do you guys remember the days when we used to buy and hoard perfume because of its smell, not because of the picture on the label? What were we thinking?! :lol:

     

    Haha,no harm hoarding because of both the awesome smell and the awesome label. :P Everything Mara makes is awesome smelling anyway so the label is a perfectly viable selection option ^_^

  5. 1) I have moved up to TRIBBLE WRANGLER! WOOT!

     

    2) Meng123, I adore your Holmesian avatar!

     

    Haha,i didnt upload the avatar so im pretty sure i have Mara to thank for the awesome picture ^_^ It would make a great label,will definitely hoard it if it becomes one :P

  6. This one is almost sold out, and is not one I can make again as it was very complicated and blended over several weeks. Pity, as it has turned out to be a favorite of the PheroTruth crowd. I intend to make a replacement for it in the coming weeks though...something different but with the same type of appeal. Thematically, I know Meng will like the title and intent. ;) Wait and see!

     

    That is a pity since its a pretty nice scent.Since you say i will like the title and intent of the new one though,i will be waiting very very impatiently :P Looking forward to it since anything you come up with is sure to smell awesome ^_^

  7. Vintage Musk

    A "super-custom" crafted for a client who mourned the loss of a favorite scent that has been lost to us since the 1970's. With just a sniff from an old bottle, we crafted our version for her, and she declared it better than the original! This musk has only the tiniest touch of sweetness and can be worn by both sexes - our client and her husband both wear it. Rounded edges, soft and easy to wear like well-worn cotton...comfortable, natural and cozy. Crafted of a 'cool' sort of musk paired with a non-foody vanilla, rounded with a dash of powdered sugar and a few drops of soft sandalwood.

     

    OK, this is what I'm talkin' about!! I absolutely LOVE this!! The cool, cotton feel is so absolutely refreshing, but rich at the same time. The "cool" element of this musk is *almost* green, but not really. So hard to describe, but so completely perfect. It reminds me of something, but I can't quite put my finger on it. Sexy and familiar, like my lover's eyes. I want to bathe in this, and I might have to buy enough to do so!!

     

    That sounds amazing.Great review ^_^

  8. Oh they certainly do !!! ...they get richer and fuller,one of the joys of artesian creations :hearts09793:

    ...still have not found mine,but sure got distracted looking for it and trying others :lol:

     

    Thats really nice about them ^_^ Definitely looking forward to it happening to mine,although ill probably end up using up all of my favorites before i see that happen to them.Always fun to go treasure hunting,lots of hidden treasures tend to get unearthed :P

  9. Oh my gosh! I can't believe I forgot to post this! A while ago I gave my Dad my sample of LP Homme. I wasn't entirely sure he would wear it, but I thought he'd get a kick out if it. And then yesterday, while I visited with Mom & Dad, I whipped out some samples for Mom to have a sniff of, and Dad piped up to say: "I've been wearing mine, you know - the one you gave me."

    And my mom laughed and said, "No wonder that lady kept telling you that you smell good yesterday!" :) I guess the server at their regular restaurant commented a couple of times, but Mom couldn't smell it, and Dad forgot he was wearing it! :lol: Anyway, it's a win!

     

    Thats a great story.Definitely see LP Homme as a great scent for collecting compliments with(^_^)

  10. Brads days of summer is a very green and fresh scent with a nice sandalwood overtone to it.Its a pleasant and relaxing scent that is mild enough to be used for any purpose.Definitely a work friendly scent.It gives a summer vibe of wanting to be outdoors with the greens in it.Could see it as a useful multipurpose day scent.It smells nice but its dont think it is really one to wear if you want to stand out as it seems to be a quite subtle scent which is good for a day scent.(>_<)More testing is required to get a good feel for it though.

  11. Dad for men is definitely a nice manly musk.Its pretty strong on the musk and is balanced well by a touch of sandalwood and lavender.It smells the same on first application to the skin and after dry down unlike quite a few of the others ive tested.Its a pretty awesome scent and is quite addictive and relaxing.The musk,sandalwood and lavender seem to be the main notes of this scent and they compliment each other really well. ^_^ The other notes seem to be more as supporting notes since i cant really pick them out.This one makes for a great day scent that you could wear anywhere and anytime.I also think it would be a good work scent.The intellectual man pheromones in particular would be helpful in that aspect.From what ive tested, dad for men would be my go-to day scent even though my night scents have been dominated by LP homme and roberts attacked in the stacks.

  12. Pashazade is an interesting mysterious scent with a fair amount of middle eastern influence i think.It starts of pretty strong when its first put on,my skin seems to amp the cloves in it a lot(>_<)After dry down,it became a spicy powdery scent.It smelt a bit like incense to me but in a good way.Its actually not too bad as a scent but dont think ill be wearing it that often since it doesnt quite fit my tastes.Its a very unique scent though and would be good for catching attention.

  13. Yes, I think you're right about a pheromone addition. That would be totally unfair. The smell of this one already makes me weak in the knees! :lol: Do it!!!

     

    Haha,already have some unscented pheromones i can wear under it.Not sure whether my first full bottle will be this or LP Homme though since this smells so amazing(:-p)

     

    Gahhh...I know I have a sniffie of this somewhere,I remember liking it a lot,then getting distracted with a new one :lol: ...mmmmm,must find,will be aged into perfection...oh yeah a boost into this of any favorite blend would be stunning!

     

    That is cool about the aging.Will be interesting if the scents change over time(^_^)

     

    Yeah, I'm not sure what I expected this one to smell like - paper or something, maybe? I was happily surprised when I slopped it onto BF's arm. He was too. I'm forever putting perfume on him these days, even the girly ones - so he's used to being accosted with tester sticks, but when I went at him with this, he was all, "Hey! What's that one?" It really caught his attention. And mine.

     

    Its definitely a pleasant suprise.The name doesnt quite inspire the awesomeness of what it is(:-p)

  14. Teachers Pest works very, very well for inspiring more intimate activities. I stand by my initial review that it smells like sex.

     

    Lol,if it can do that from just the scent.It would be interesting what it could do paired with pheros(:-p)Its cool how mara can create intention in perfumes though.

  15. Brads days of summer today,its a very green scent with a nice sandalwood overtone.Its pleasant and relaxing and is mild enough to be a good day scent.My mum was spoilt by roberts attacked in the stacks so she said it smells not bad but nowhere near as good as that one,lol. :P Its an interesting scent and has a good outdoors summer vibe going for it with the greens and has a very fresh vibe to it.Although its nice,i think i have been spoilt by the other scents as well.The others are just that nice and this didnt really leave a lasting impression on me(>_<) With that,i have tested all the samples and can now look forward to enjoying playing with these amazing creations(^_^)

     

    My mum really likes her goddess of the blue moon too.She says its a nice pleasant musky scent.Havent smelt it on her so not really sure what it smells like though.

  16. Yay! Great review Meng, for one of my favorite mens scents. Although I wore it all myself and didn't share with any of the men...Masked Man is so sexy for both sexes!!

     

    Im sure it smells nice on you(^_^)Its definitely a good scent for both sexes.Although roberts attacked in the stacks and lp homme are still the sexiest ones for me :P

  17. Nice review Meng!...I wear a dab or two of this myself at times just because of that sweet smoke vibe,a favorite type of mine :D

     

    Haha,yup.Sweet smokey smells are nice(^_^)

     

    I think part of the fun of phero use is to create willing participants! :P

     

    Lol,true enough.I need to get out more and find some :P i have enough pheromones to sink a ship,lol

  18. Teachers pest is a very sexy musk.A perfect one to wear to start off a sensual vibe.It starts off with a musk that is heavy on the vanilla and has a similar vibe to masked man.Once it dries down,the tobacco note becomes more prominent and the vanilla note reduces creating a interesting balance and a nice smoky sweet musky smell which works very well.There are other notes but the vanilla and tobacco seems to be the main notes for me.Its a very pleasant musky scent with well balanced vanilla and tobacco to give it both a slightly manly and sensual vibe.Reckon it would be a good one for inspiring intimate activities(:-p) Although it seems mild enough for a day scent,i think it would be much better suited as a night scent.
