Sunnycowgirl Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 Hello, I'm new here, and for the last few days I spent reading the mb, and reading til my head is spinning, and I'm so glad that I did scribble down a few notes. But here's the scoop, I'm back to dating, after a horrible abusive marriage, and then following a horrible two yr divorce, and then dating off and on, but nothing real serious. But my ex college boyfriend is back in the picture, after being apart for 20 yrs, he found me on facebook, and decided after marrying the girl his mother adored, and not me, he wants to see if there is anything after all these years. So here's my dilemma, I want to wear something that will wow him. I asked him what his favorite perfume was and he said it was sweet tropical, coconut, vanilla, victoria secret scents. Anyone have any ideas what I should wear? Gotcha or Perfect Match. My girl friend is letting me borrow a few of her VS scents for our first meeting this weekend, but for the second meeting what should I wear? Any ideas? I'm not a girly girl, I work in a bakery, and live on a cattle ranch, so I'm more of a leather scent, a little sass, mixed in with wildflowers. We were quite sexually active back then, and we partied quite a bit, thinking that's why his mother dislikes me so much as she think I was a bad influence to him but we were 25 yrs old. I just want something that will help put all those feeling behind him, and open up the communication, and of course make him want me regardless to what his mother says or thinks. Expecting a miracle aren't I. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midnight Requiem Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 (edited) Welcome! My first thought reading tropic, coconut, and vanilla was LP: Tropique, which has tropical vanilla, honeydew, cantaloupe, coconut cream, magnolia, apricots, patchouli, honey, amber, and patchouli. Despite the presence of amber and patchouli, on me it dries down to a very soft coconut-magnolia tropical scent. It also contains a dose of copulins too! The opening up communication part makes me think something with beta-androstenol like Gotcha or Perfect Match as you already said. I'm still new so maybe the veteran members here might have more helpful advice. Good luck! Edited January 20, 2016 by Midnight Requiem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brookejones Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 (edited) Yay Sunny! Welcome to the forum! I am going to defer to the vets on here for advice because I have a lot to learn myself. My favorite tropical is OCCO Ambrosia but I am sure there are many great ones here. That is a great story about your college sweetheart! Love it! I wish you lots of luck on your date :-) Edited January 20, 2016 by brookejones Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quietguy Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 (edited) Welcome to the forum. I will have to leave the ladies to make scent and pheromone recommendations but I will say good luck! Edited January 20, 2016 by quietguy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bella15 Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 Welcome!!! I would go with Gotcha, that sounds perfect for this situation.. as far as scents: LP Original is the ultimate sweet vanilla Tropical Musk LP Tropique Good luck, whatever you choose! I tried reconnecting with an old flame, I hope you have better success than I did! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

halo0073 Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 Hi Sunny, Glad you made it! I am Heather who helped you yesterday. After hearing more about your needs I have to agree Gotcha and Perfect Match are the pheros I would suggest. I am going to link you to the Perfumerie with tropical scents as the category. http://www.lovepotionperfume.com/perfumerie/filter/tropical/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Cat Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 Welcome to the forum! Just echoing what everyone else has said -- I think Gotcha and PM are great choices, as well as the scent recommendations you've gotten. And down the road, when Private Editions open up again, it might be fun to ask Mara to design something for you that is both in line with what your guy likes AND reflects who you are. Good luck and keep us posted! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expecting a miracle aren't I. Welcome. As far as getting over a rotten marriage, starting over, getting your groove back e t. You are not alone here. It's actually a good place to be. Scent wise, if you are going by what he said, I try " Tropical Musk". It's the closest thing to what you described. LP Tropique would be a runner up. You should get some samples. Also get a samples of Beth Blushing Milkmaid (it's full of cops, coconut & cream) you can add a swipe or two to whatever scent you have. You should try a sample of an OCCO I suggest Pink or White to start. Just be careful, don't over do couplins in public. Pheros are really a personalized & situational thing. Perfect Match or Gotcha may be what you are looking for in this case. They are very bonding. Or you can flip the whole thing entirely and Do something with LFM or LFN, be the queen bee. I'm not that familiar with VS scents, I know a lot of those are Pink scents, I'm not aware of any tropical but I bet if there is one our " Hearts" knows it.

SirenSong Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 Welcome, sunnycowgirl! I have both LP Tropique and Tropical Musk. I loooovvveee Tropique. Good luck reconnecting with your ex.

Sunnycowgirl Posted January 25, 2016 Author Share Posted January 25, 2016 Thanks gals, we didn't meet up this weekend. I went to a concert friday night, and saturday we were suppose to meet but I got the flu bug saturday morning so we decided to wait another weekend. I was a long 5 hr drive home today, still felt nauseated and yucky. So we decided to wait another weekend. I ordered tropique, gotcha, and summertime blues so I'll have something to play with when we do meet up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reincarnated Posted February 16, 2016 Share Posted February 16, 2016 Welcome to the forum, sunny! Based on the scent description alone, maybe Tantalize from the new releases would work. I'm waiting for my sample, orchids vanilla smoked sugarcane and myrrh... could be really luscious... I'm not a very girly girl type either, but I do Latin Dance so I can see where I would like to cast some glamour on the guys I dance with... Perhaps it would serve to cast a spell in your case. I'd get a sample. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sunnycowgirl Posted February 18, 2016 Author Share Posted February 18, 2016 Thanks quiet guy...I'm out of the groove. It doesn't help that he's 3 hrs away, works as a farm manager, coaches, refs, and drives a race car, meanwhile I bake, live on a ranch, and ride and show horses. But he's willing to take time to pencil me in, so there is hope, right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
