Potion Master Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 Sugared Black Pepper *A mixture of natural pepper EOs from around the globe, smoothed with soft white sugars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quietguy Posted October 9, 2014 Share Posted October 9, 2014 (edited) This is a great scent - even with the "sugared" it is a very strong (& good!) pepper scent. Once it dries down it is a little softer but given my experience with the sugared line I was surprised how much the pepper jumped out at first. ETA: You can layer this with combinations of: Sugared Egyptian Musk, Green Tea, Oak Moss, & Woods Edited October 12, 2014 by quietguy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoveStruck Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 This one is SO cool... I haven't tried layering it yet but by itself it is one of "those" scents that I can't stop huffing! It's like a photo that I can't look away from - I don't LOVE the smell on me alone, but I keep going back to it and trying to figure out what to pair it with. QG do report back on how the EM works... I love black pepper (on food) so I have no doubt that adding this little gem to SOMETHING is going to make a killer scent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tyvey Posted October 19, 2014 Share Posted October 19, 2014 SUDDENLY THE WORLD SEEMS SUCH A PERFECT PLACE SUDDENLY IT MOVES WITH SUCH A PERFECT GRACE SUDDENLY MY LIFE DOESN'T SEEM SUCH A WASTE NOW THAT I HAVE TRIED SUGARED BLACK PEPPER AND THERE'S NO MOUNTAIN TOO HIGH, NO RIVER TOO WIDE SUGARED BLACK PEPPER BE ALWAYS THERE BY MY SIDE STORM CLOUDS MAY GATHER AND STARS MAY COLLIDE BUT I'LL LOVE YOU UNTIL THE END OF TIME I have an unhealthy love of black pepper. I put it on everything, including sweets (try it on strawberries, melons and especially ice cream!). More than once friends have gotten me peppermills as gifts (including a portable one). I don't know what I've been doing with my life before ordering sugared black pepper. I put it on and shouted YUMMY and swooned. I may be a little punchy with fatigue but this is definitely true love.

LoveStruck Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 I feel so weird being drawn to wear this... I mean who would have thought it'd be nice to smell like black pepper? Still clueless as to what to pair it with - I know I put black pepper on just about every kind of FOOD but there's got to be something that would just make this a magical pairing.

Wanderlust Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 Our mate's nephew in Scotland is a chef. He got me hooked on strawberries with pepper. I would love to pair those two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can't necessarily think of it in such a literal fashion - what pepper does is add a quality which is very interesting, IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great point Luna. I love black pepper so much that I immediately identified it... but when I (covered the label) and asked two friends they couldn't ID the sugared version. Naturally, when I said "It's black pepper!" THEN suddenly they got it. So yes, it is unusual and I don't have to walk around with a nametag that says "...it's black pepper" to inform those that smell me! I like orange and even cherry with black pepper. Thanks Halo I have both Sugared Orange & Cherry so I'm game to try both those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eggers Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 Ylang Ylang & Black Pepper is awesome, too. And Mandarin + BP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoveStruck Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 (edited) Ylang Ylang & Black Pepper is awesome, too. And Mandarin + BP. Now Ylang-Ylang is a switch! Up to now I've just looked at fruit combos but this makes total sense Eggers. And I think I have sugared Y-Y and STILL haven't layered it!

Eggers Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 I haven't done it with the sugared line, but I do it with essential oils in a diffuser, and OH MAN!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoveStruck Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 I haven't done it with the sugared line, but I do it with essential oils in a diffuser, and OH MAN!!! ok give up the recipe... So Y-Y EO & cracked black pepper floating on the top!? I gotta try this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eggers Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 I do about 3-4 drops of ylang ylang eo & just one drop of black pepper essential oil, floated on water in a candle-lit essential oil burner. That's it. Let the candle burn for about half an hour (make sure there's enough water in the reservoir, or it'll burn dry & ruin the nice smell). Good stuff! Try the same kind of thing with Mandarin eo & black pepper. The same kind of proportions. It's nommy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoveStruck Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 I don't think I've ever seen a black pepper EO... Need to google (and just WATCH it come up at some shop with dozens of other things I can't "live" without!) I do have to try this tincture though... Something besides all the pastry/bakery scents in my diffuser that are too easy to default to (lack of creative courage) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eggers Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 Just don't use the Black Pepper EO on your skin! It can be pretty irritating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
