Sometimes it takes a village to seduce just one person!

That, Rose, is signature worthy!!!

Great to meet you Rose!! Sounds like we have things in common!! The addiction has already started and I'm super excited waiting for my package to arrive! I started with the thought that what I wanted was to liven things up from the outside, trying to bring those feelings to me but the more I read and the more I use LPMP, the more I realize that it starts within. And that is where the true cause and effect begins. the scents and pheros make me feel good and it just projects out from there. I'm feeling the fun start to come back.

MissHazel, thank you for giving your impressions. From the description, it sounded interesting but I wouldn't have expected the notes you picked up. Now I'm even more excited to try it!!! I hope it smells the same on me when it arrives!! And thanks to all that have imparted the wisdom of hoarding as necessary. I will plan on doing that as necessary - especially with the long shelf life they appear to have.

Thank you for all the great info on this blend. It brings to mind a different question though: After reading your post Luna65, I went back and noticed that this is a limited edition and you mentioned it being released a year ago. How long do limited editions stay around for? And if I end up really liking the OCCO SLF, should I stock up now while I can? I like the idea that it has aged and therefore is what it will be but I would be sad to think I found something good and then I run out forever more.

There's some that did nothing for me right off the bat, like BALLS!

I find that sometimes there's a little difference for bottles just arrived in the mail

from trades (and thus have aged) and letting them hang out a bit and maybe let my nose

get used to them and appreciate them more.

 

however, for those fresh off the line like BALLS! I definitely noticed a difference after it had aged for several months.

Storm,I am in the let steep camp and always try several times,at least!! ...I still shudder at how close I came to not trying LP Red/OCCO Red again Oh and I didn't even like OCCO White at first either,hmmm,or any of the honeys come to think about it...yikes

So it seems like at least some of them do get better with age. I had to laugh though because my first thought was "I should have some left in several months?". I'm lucky because the LP Red was awesome as soon as I opened the cap and I can only imagine how much better it could be if it actually lasted months but I may try out the OCCO SLF and its a little much at first I may let it sit awhile and see if my thoughts change. Good to know!!

I have a bottle of OCCO SLF coming and after reading about this in a few of the earlier comments I was just wondering: do you need to let the bottles "steep" or can you begin using them right away? It seems like some have had better thoughts after letting it sit for awhile and I was just wondering if that is preference, cops or no cops.

From one new poster to another, welcome! Everyone here really has so much experience and knowledge, before too long we should be well acquainted with the do's and don'ts.

Well it is based on a pear and apricot cannoli dessert...but it wears very summery on me. OMG I wore it today and I was just swooning all day. Because you like foodie AND fruity I think you would really like it.

 

I know that generally oils are best for warm weather and sprays are best for cold weather but I gotta tell you...when it gets as hot as it does in the summer I like to have a few sprays on hand. I relied on Rainbow Falls quite a bit last year (It's GGG but it was a light spray) and this year I got Dolly's Hot and Sticky in a spray. I can't afford all summer sprays but to have a few pick me up summer scents in spray is nice.

 

No matter how hot it gets though I still love to wear LP Red when I go out at night !!!!!

I agree that now and then I think I'll be switching with a spray but I can definitely say the Red carries because even when I put it on in the morning, a friend of mine could still smell it by end of day. Like you, I'll be wearing that stuff even when my face is peeling off in the parking lot!! I never would have pegged myself for foodie scents though but I guess it just goes to show that things change with time. If anyone knows of a true rich vanilla I might like, let me know. I love vanilla but more the true "flavor", not the sickly sweet or flowery kind!!

Hey welcome to the boards. Clever screen name. Are you a meteorologist?

Hi Raq On! Not a meteorologist. I worked as a paralegal and for the court until moving to Arizona. Now I work in the training department at a utility. Legal taught me a lot about playing with words!

I'm definitely adding the women's samples on the next order. Is it bad that I'm all ready to order again and haven't received the second yet?

Nice to meet a fellow desert lady, missdarlyncherie!! Maybe you can let me know what has worked well for you in the high heat since nine months of the year will be either quite warm to HOT. It's funny you mention the Ricotta Sonatta because I saw that name and thought I would check out what was in it and then got sidetracked. I wouldn't have suspected pear. The "ricotta" part made me think lasagna!!

If you would like to only sample some LP favorites you can go here:

I've got all but 2 of them in full bottles, lol. But it's a great way to sample without committing to fbs right off the bat, and since samples are usually $5 a pop, it's a great deal for a really delicious mix of flavors Oh...PS My whole point was that LP Black is one of them

Thanks NuTrix!!! I just looked at the link and that sounds like a perfect choice since it also has LP Pink which I've seen a lot of people like in the forums. Awesome that it includes some of the phero blends too for trying out. Does Mara ever have options to pick out your own samples as well? I thought I'd seen a post about that somewhere but it might have been old and it did seem like maybe there had been issues with it. In my first order, they were kind enough to include little samples and those were lovely. Some I definitely thought weren't me but others I could see liking very much. Sniffing all of them gave me a better idea of the individual scents so I can gage better when I read what's in the perfumes.

I looked at the LP Black when I first checked out the site and I wasn't quite sure if I would like it but I've seen so many say that they LOVE it and if I can layer with the Red, that sounds awesome!! It sounds right up my alley so I guess we will add that one too on my growing wishlist. I'll post a review of the 3 of Pears when I get it. I tried to find out more on that one but no one said too much so an additional thought can't hurt. When it hits 110,118 degrees, a nice fruity scent will either be lovely or rank when sweating profusely!!! I

j5382001, my first order was the LP Red and Compromising Positions. I absolutely adore the Red because it reminds me of sweet incense and I love darker spicy scents. I decided on the second because I love foodie smells. The second order I'm waiting for is my already evident hoarding of the Red because I can't get enough of that scent and I decided to try the 3 of Pears for something summer light (Arizona won't be pretty soon). The OCCO SLF rounds out the order as a little something different that I'm hopeful might add a little "umph". I've seen mixed reviews on the 3 of Pears so we'll see. And from the suggestions, I figure I will probably be adding some OCCO Red in the future if it is anything like what I have currently.

I'm just ready for some changes in my life and what better way than to leave a lovely trail wafting behind me. LOL

Thanks for the warm welcome! I can't wait to experiment with all the scents. I'm already anxiously awaiting my newest order. Can't wait to share!

Thanks Ladies!!

SpriteLeigh, I would cry if LP Red disappeared. It never seems to fail that as soon as I find something I LOVE, it gets discontinued and that stuff rocks! I wore LP Red to work one day and one of the firemen commented how he loved how I smelled and that it was so different. I'm sure ya'll will be seeing me frequently as I have no doubt that an monster addiction is currently in the making.

Thanks for the welcome!!! I've already spent a LOT of time looking because everything sounds so good!! I've got some OCCO SLF coming soon (along with more Red) because it sounded... interesting??? And these days, I could use a little interesting in my life. I definitely want to get some OCCO Red in the future but I'll have to wait until I pay off my credit card. I don't have too many vices but I have a feeling that this may be one that my other half doesn't need to know about. LOL

Hi Everyone!

I'm a newbie to the forum but have to say that I've read so many of the posts on here and have really loved listening to everyone. I've alternated from considering it research to cliffhangers as to how encounters have turned out for you gals!! I've been getting into pheromones for the past few years and I was absolutely delighted to find LPMP. Not only is the site awesome to read through but I appreciate the time it takes to create just the right balance of properties. Not too long ago, I received my first package with LP Red and Compromising Positions and the scents are amazing!!! I've already ordered more Red out of fear of running out and a friend of mine is already in love with it as much as I am!

Turning 40 this year was a wee bit hard as I don't feel that old and I find myself wanting to find that "pick-me-up" to kick start some confidence and sexiness back in (I work at a utility plant and mom of a 16 year old). Being a newbie, I'll probably have a lot of questions but promise not to bug unless I can't find the answer already posted somewhere.

With that being said, I hope I'll get to know you all and have a chance to share too in the future!!
