luna65 Posted July 12, 2019 Author Share Posted July 12, 2019 Cops and Robbers was raspberry jelly donut and coffee, Undercover Lover was the raspberry cheesecake one. Okay so citrus and honey - would a lighter honey work in terms of not making it too totally raging sex bomb? LOL I still think that's a faboo idea though, because it's such a great combination - especially if it were, say, akin to Dolly's Hot & Sticky (maybe with a smidge of lime instead of grapefruit). I guess you're right about Titillating Temptress being an OCCO Mocha, although it didn't work on me (*sad kitteh face*). I guess I'm thinking of something like Sungold Mocha but all chocolate, like both light and sweet types. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kayla Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 (edited) I agree with having no spices in the coffee OCCO. I would love a sweet, creamy coffee, like LP Latte, but without the patchouli. I am in for a chocolate/vanilla, creamy pumpkin, definitely butterscotch/vanilla, lavender buttercream, and pretty much anything sweet and creamy. I am loving all of these ideas! ETA - I am also curious about the bourbon/raspberry one and hoping if a citrusy OCCO is made that the honey would be a lighter one and would love just citrus notes without other fruits (voting for the tangerine that you had mentioned above instead of pineapple). I love that you open this up for a discussion with everyone. I can't wait to see what you create, @Potion Master!

Eve Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 Oh! How long has this been being discussed! I have to get off my phone and to a proper keyboard ASAP!!! But, Incase I don’t. Lemon buttercream yes. True Cherry blended with cedar, vetiver and maybe vanilla or tonka? Last year the sandalwood musk was incredible. Dreamsicle also appeals to me. Cupcake dreamsicle how’s that?

Potion Master Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 @luna65 Unfortunately, I do not have any of the light sweet honey right now.

Eastwood22 Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 (edited) 6 hours ago, Potion Master said: citrus notes on MOST people are extremely fragile, esp lemon which burns off most people's skin in about 20 mins. So you have to consider what will be left after that. So, when doing a citrus OCCO, it's going to wear more successfully with a heavier note underneath. Lemon Buttercream would work well, as would a honeyed citrus. Lavender is also a very thin note, which is why I teamed it with the amber last year. I know everyone is asking for at least a mixed citrus, and I can def do that, but think about what you'd prefer as a base note. Tangerine and/or Pineapple will also bolster Lemon (and Grapefruit) and make it last longer. ... Liebchen is Lavender Buttercream - always a favorite to me - and easier to pull off as an OCCO than a delicate lavender. ... I could do a creamy pumpkin one, I like that idea! .... Hildy, when you say green, do you mean more like a ferny masculine/unisex kind of green? Because a fern or fergiere would go well with leather, but I can't really picture it with a pale green stemmy kind of scent. What are you imagining? .... Eastwood, did you try Ellie's Elephant Snacks? ... Ok, so - votes? I am going to do 8 of them, like last year. In the 5ml bottles and in sets of trials. They will be released at the same time as the sale again too. A couple of last years flew off the shelves and maybe does anyone want more of any of those? I think it was the sandalwood one that sold out the fastest. Your explaination of lemon burning off quickest, makes sense to me now, as I can never get "enough lemon." Lemon Fairy Cake yes, but Sugared wasn't "Lemon-y" enough. If you do a Lemon Buttercream, make sure you do enough that @Eve and I aren't begging/posting ISO's on a few months! Same with the Liebchen Lav Buttercream, don't cause a stampede. It could be like the running of the bulls. People could die. I know I said mixed citrus, but last years Pineapple OCCO was so perfect, why not a re-brew-ish? I really love that one. I also liked the Pallas idea. I love Pallas and have at least two back ups, but I also dislike most rose on it's own. It needs fruit! So if you did a Pallas type I would hope it would lean more grapefruit (& tangerine) but not if it's creation eliminated a strong pineapple OCCO. Regarding orange/tangerine, If I had to pick between Deliciae and Dreamsicle I'd more likely go Dreamsicle because half-melted frozen dairy treats are better than cupcakes. And Deliciae does not last as long, I understand why now. Totally down with a pumpkin OCCO. I once asked my man if he thought Pumpkin Spice Cake smelled too much like vagina. He looked at me like I had completely lost my mind and said "I'm thinking maybe you've never actually smelled vagina. It smells nothing like pumpkin cake." There's a good chance I was out of my mind tired at that time, and there weren't ANY cops in that bottle. I digress.... The Sandalwood Musk was awesome, you should make one like that again. I don't know if I'd buy another bottle, but I'm very glad for the one I have. You could also make some kind of Sandalwood Amber or warm amber OCCO. Has anyone nominated fig and amber, like Toujours Belle? A Sandalwood, Fig, and Amber OCCO could be smokin' hot. Regarding "green," I got some Sugared Green Musk from Bella and could not stop huffing it off the back of my hand last night. I don't really do green or claim to understand musks so I'll just shush on this.... I also second Creamy Coffee. If you do a BUTTERSCOTCH CARAMEL, please please please don't add any oatmeal or flour or almond. Unless it's the oats that make it butterscotch, I don't know how one would make real butterscotch. If it's an essential ingredient, it's not for me. I think I could otherwise rock that butterscotch all day, everyday, but those notes would really hurt my feelings. Not really my feelings, but still. Those notes go dusty on me. Dusty Vagina is a very bad time and not the image I'm trying to put out to the world or my lovely man. I will buy any trial sets but would go FB on the Lemon BC, Lav BC, Pumpkin and (possibly) Butterscotch. Maybe Pineapple again, plus any citrus you make. Not floral (Pallas excluded), would have to slather trials of the rest to decide. I love Honey'd LP, but Sugared Honeycomb hates my skin, so honey could go either way, same with chocolate. I think all those others would keep me enthralled so I'd pass on FB's of honey or chocolate. (But Eve needs a Wild Cherry OCCO!) I have the OCCO: Coco Cocoa and rarely reach for it but I had to have it. Maybe it's because I have 1000 other scents? Or that I find BBM and OCCO White more intoxicating? I do reach for OCCO Ambrosia all the time, but most likely because I keep extra bottle in my bathroom. I'm rambling. I like that you want to make us happy @Potion Master! Isn't it too soon for you to be mixing up goodies, though? Regarding the Elephant Snacks, we liked it but it wasn't just so. I'm talking straight Reese's. But wanting an idea of something isn't the same as wearing it IRL, right?

oceanjewel Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 Adding my vote for Lemon Buttercream, Mocha, and @Hildegerd‘s idea for a green/unisex OCCO (thinking that one would pair well with most of the unisex scents I like) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eve Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 (edited) Coffee? I thought the coffee was nixed. Had to read back more carefully. So yes to coffee. But, an even higher YES to a version of the red wine chocolate coffee combo like in the sugar scrub. I have used 99% up (and I got two tubs of it!). I know the coffee was mainly the actual coffee granules in the scrub than a scent note, but that stuff was FABULOUS! .... or just coffee. You know me and my adoration of food and beverage aromas PM. ...speaking of coffee, off to brew coffee, feed the fur kids, shoot the dog (insulin haha) and all that stuff. @Potion Master I was up late unraveling the Cherie Currie mystery and now I’m behind because I slept in!!!

The lavender buttercream. I’d be good with any herbal lavender used not just that one. I need more of the body butter too! See I’m dreaming of a darker mocha coffee. Like Luna’s Sungold or the one recently that I loved but can’t wear cuz of the Dominance. Super creamy ones never work on me. And to me mocha implies darker and not as light, creamy and sweet.

I would definitely wear a coffee with cream or a coffee with mocha, but definitely wouldn't go for one with wine or spices in it (just using the coffee one as an example). I also love the lavender buttercream idea, because Midnight Lavender was a darker/more intense lavender that I wear by itself instead of layered.

Eve Posted July 13, 2019 Share Posted July 13, 2019 Simple for layering is great! Coffee on its own etc. I’d LOVE any type of rebrew for Wild Cherry, non pheroed would be the most versatile. As much as I love chocolate, I continue to have difficulties wearing many fragrances that are chocolate. I’d never say I didn’t want to try another. I know for me it might not work out, though. Wild Cherry was an exception, could not ask for a more perfect scent! Even though the chocolate in it was present, it was not the star. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Potion Master Posted July 13, 2019 Share Posted July 13, 2019 @Hildegerd - I really love your ideas, they would make fab complex perfumes or PEs, but I fear too complex then for OCCOs. How do you all feel about me doing a musky/dusty/herbal type one that would be layerable with the kind of scents Hildy is talking about? Maybe something like sandalwood/sage/myrrh and like a dot of cardomom or chai? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eastwood22 Posted July 14, 2019 Share Posted July 14, 2019 (edited) I also prefer them as layerable rather than stand alone, I also feel like I could wear any of them alone already. I just enjoy mixing things up, but there's no reason I couldn't wear OCCO White or Pineapple alone as they are. None of them are overly simple. I also realize that wasn't the question.... Midnight Lavender is the only one I do wear alone, because it has its own indomitable vibe. Mostly I wear it with Tickle Tickle, though, because that's a Lavender that will not allow it's thunder to be stolen. I'm with Hildy on the OCCO to layer over a fougere. My vision is more about mixing some sweaty OCCO off of my body onto some sweaty fougere on my man, but that is still a type of layering. 22 hours ago, Potion Master said: sandalwood/sage/myrrh and like a dot of cardomom or chai? That sounds lovely. I'd prob layer that with something with a lot of oakmoss or even Sugared Sandalwood. I like Sugared Sandalwood alone, but like to add a little warmth, that kind of OCCO could be a killer combo. Obviously I'm only guessing at the moment.

I chose them last year, based on the areas I felt were being attacked by the current regime. But all I can focus on this year is the issue at the border, so I thought I would ask for help choosing. This is from last year: Quote A portion of all sales from this set will be donated to the following charities: ACLU NAACP The Trevor Project Planned Parenthood The Human Rights Campaign The Southern Poverty Law Center Natural Resources Defense Council The National Immigrant Justice Center A total of eight charities for each of the eight OCCO varieties. In addition, we are giving you the option to join in the donation. You will see the option when you buy your bottles "1/6 oz Bottle + 1.00", this means you would like to add an extra dollar for charity. We have chosen these eight charities because they are actively working to repair the damage which the current administration has done with regard to human and civil rights, the rights of women, minorities, immigrants and the LGBT+ community, and Mother Nature herself.
