    Lioness

    this is gorgeous! at first i get the sweetness of the amber and it seems a bit typical, but then this wonderful almost woodsy smokiness comes out and gives this scent a twist that's truly unique and intoxicating. i'm loving this one and wish i'd tried it much, much sooner! it smells earthy, sexy, and confident. good stuff!
  2. I know May Day is listed as a women's fragrance, but I was wondering if that's just because the scent is more feminine. Would the pheros still work to calm a man? 'Cause my friend I'm putting together a big tin o' samples for is in dire need of some majorly calming scents/pheros and I was hoping May Day would help him out. He prefers girly scents, so if it's all flowery and what-not, that wouldn't be a problem. But...would it work?
  3. oh hell. good thing my birthday is coming up. i'm asking for LP gift certificates!
  4. i found it also covers the stank of copulins nicely
  5. this didn't remind me of suncatcher at all. i really didn't care for suncatcher, which was too bright and flowery for me and passed on to my mother-in-law who likes that sort of thing more than i. this, to me, is a soft, gorgeous floral which is sweetened and deepened by that magickal/mystical base of frankincense and myrrh. i'm a frank & myrrh whore, really, you could mix those with anything and i'd wear it and love it...but mixed with these florals, wow...it's really very lovely, soft, and pretty. the florals were a bit overpowering at first, but calmed down once they hit my skin and the frank & myrrh were amped and came out as calming, pacifying agents for the intense florals. gorgeousness!
  6. once i get this on my skin, that buttery/creamy smell that was making me want to eat it fades away...which is a good thing 'cause i don't want to want to eat myself all day AND i'm not particularly fond of super-foody scents. the lemon comes out more on my skin, still tempered by the buttery cream, and mixes with musk and nutmeg. still a sweet and sort of desserty scent, but the musk and lemon somehow make it more sexy and less foody. not nearly as fruity as i was expecting it to be, thanks to the musk and buttery cream. overall, this is a lovely blend of warm feeling things that makes me feel cozy and has me sniffing myself a lot to see how it changes as it dries into my skin. yum!
  7. yeah, tail is pretty. it was pretty faint on me, though. but still worked wonders. wore it out last saturday night and the bartender told me i looked gorgeous and that he loved my hair. he also gave me four free drinks and got me hammered over the course of the evening. lol. my husband's friend's sister who usually doesn't like me and is stand-offish toward me was super nice and friendly to me, too, and told me how pretty i looked as well. i didn't know copulins worked on girls... overall, i was impressed with the amount of attention and compliments i got that night. too bad my husband got so drunk he passed out the second his head hit the pillow and i got no nookie out of it. lol.

    Jungle Colada

    I really like this one, too. Mostly 'cause of the creaminess of the whole blend. Strawberry is pretty dominant on me as well, followed closely by mango (or some other melon). I do get the coconut in good measure, but it's not overpowering, which I'm thrilled about 'cause I hate when fruity blends are all coconut and I end smelling like suntan lotion Not the case at all with this one. A creamy, fruity, summery dream! I actually initially intended to give this sample to someone with a bunch of other samples as part of a bday pressie...but...I like it too much so I'm keeping it! I'll find another one they can have.
  9. nope. nothing like bacchanalia. think more of an exotic incense smell. kind of powdery and resiny with lemon notes and maybe even sweetgrass in there. just a lot of really exotic stuff mixed together for a very rich scent.
  10. i got a sample of Heart of Kapet body lotion with my order today and, num, it's really good stuff. i slathered it on after my post work-out shower this afternoon and hours later I am still smelling it strong. this is a really unique scent...kind of fruity, kind of incensey, kind of wine-ish. very much egyptian to me and very pretty, sensual, and good for the summer when it will be amped by skin warmed by the heat and sun. my hubby thought it was a soap i used and said, "i hope you have more of that, that smells great!" the scent kind of filled up the house when i slathered it all over my still moist and hot from the shower body. good stuff! and i love the texture of your lotion, too...it's not greasy and totally disappears into the skin...and is very heavily scented!
  11. hmm...that's a nice idea! soaking your whole body in pheros and cops and then having them wafting through the house was a nice atmosphere, i'm sure! i may have to try some custom scented fizzy bath salts myself!
  12. i've only smelled this in the vial and can't wait to get it on my skin. it smells quite tastey...like...LITERALLY tastey. as in...i might try to eat my skin off where i wear this scent. it's kind of buttery, sugary, fruity, sweetness. like dessert without the calories. will update once i've actually worn it.
  13. there's actually not any musk in it...i think it's the honeycomb that has that plasticy/play-doh effect on some people. awww...sorry to hear it didn't work out for you e.
  14. i guess i should have been tipped off by it being all wrapped up in it's own plastic bag. all the other pheros smell like pee, which i'm totally used to now so i didn't think this would be THAT different. shouldn't have inhaled quite so deeply on that whiff. wow! i'll have to experiment with this around strangers before i wear it around anyone i don't want thinking i stink.
  15. i've actually had really good luck with stone cougar. i had to ease up off how much i was wearing 'cause i tend to attract either WAY younger guys or guys my dad's age anyway, and SC was getting me checked out in very dirty and obvious ways by teen and pre-teen boys everywhere I went (often much to the dismay of the mothers they were in the company of!). So, yeah...backed up off the dosage a little bit and am still getting the looks, just not getting followed around like they're lost puppies and no longer getting the creepy if-i-weren't-with-my-mom-i'd-do-nasty-things-to-you-right-now stares. lol. i do notice it makes EVERYONE, male and female, just way friendlier toward me and even gets me unwarranted discounts at stores. yey pheros! plus, it makes ME feel younger and more attractive, and that's what really counts, right? how we feel about and carry ourselves...'cause if we're having a bad day where we feel butt ugly, we're just going to carry ourselves that way and no one's going to notice us. But when we're feeling young and hot and carry ourselves accordingly, people react accordingly.
  16. so i finally ordered a bottle of straight-up copulins after trying them in several mixed blends and loving the results. i guess i shouldn't have taken a good whiff straight from the bottle...but i am ever the curious girl, so i did. man! i remember reading somewhere that this is supposed to smell like a woman's underwear and/or crotch. all i have to say about this is...if this is what your underwear and/or crotch smell like...GET THEE TO AN OB/GYN!!!! THAT'S NOT NORMAL OR HEALTHY!! But hey, it works...and as long as it's blended with something else and i can't smell that stank, it's fine with me!
  17. My package came today!! Yey! I didn't expect my custom to be in with everything else, I thought it'd take a while longer and come later...but I'm thrilled it arrived today It's gorgeous! The scents I chose for this one were Dragon's Blood, heavy & sweet cream, and ripe & juicy plum. Wowza! I asked that Dragon's Blood be the predominant note, softened and smoothed by the cream, with the plum not overpowering...and that's EXACTLY what I got. I was worried it would maybe be a little too sweet, but, nope...it's perfect. This truly is a smooth, creamy Dragon's Blood scent with a ripe, juicy plum kick that's blends wonderfully with the DB. The whole thing is warm, comforting, sensual, purple-y goodness and I can't stop sniffing myself since I put it on. Awesome job, ladies...you never disappoint. I am thrilled, as always!

    Ego Boostier

    you guys are KILLING ME with these reviews my mail has been moving sooooo slow and my package can't get here fast enough. the only mail i've gotten all week has been bills and junk mail. ugh. and i usually get tons of letters and packages. quite depressing...especially when one is expecting some bottles and samples of lovely smellies. i don't want to have to hurt my postman...but if i have to...
  19. i'm glad i got the montly sampler and will at least get a sample of this. sounded a bit foody and super sweet for me, but the review sounds fab!
  20. WOO HOO! I just made $112 on Ebay...which means...I can buy MORE PERFUME!!! I'm thinking more versions of BAM, maybe an old favorite, and of course...gotta stick a custom in there! You think I should just start having paychecks made out to Mara and Dana and ebay earnings sent straight to Love Potion?
  21. it is really quite delicious and sexy, ladies...you'll love it! e.
  22. This reminds me of a softer, slightly more feminine version of "To Soothe a Broken Heart", which is one of my absolute faves. I guess it's the lavender/jasmine mix that makes them similar, but i still like To Soothe better because it's stronger and has more "kick" to it from the mosses. This was a nice, calming, soothing scent for sleep, though...and I laid down for a little nap this afternoon (after having to put my poor kittygirl to sleep ) and the scent was still all over my sheets and pillows and helped soothe me to sleep after the stressful afternoon. A good one for your bedtime arsenal, for sure!
  23. this is a pretty, candy sweet girly fragrance but it doesn't come across as too sweet like a kid's scent. there are some definite grown-up notes in there that make this elegant and just plain gorgeous. my only complaint is that it's too soft and really doesn't last long on me. when i first put this on it's perfect and i LOVE it, but within a couple hours, i am only getting a faint pink sweetness coming from my skin...like it's my own scent and i'm not even wearing a perfume. i wish this could be the same scent it is, but amped WAY stronger so it would last longer.
  24. i would split on a sandalwood/resin BAM and a pink sugars BAM. e.
