Rose Blackthorn

Thank you for the heads up on this Storemy! Looks like they were meant to belong to Miss Hazel though. That's ok, there are plenty of scents at LP to lust after. Miss Hazel if you ever do decide to get rid of one vial I'd be happy to buy one. I definitely believe you on the aging too Luna. Oils are notorious for getting better as they age. Kinda like LP ladies and the gentlemen too!

Congratulations Honeycake! Enjoy your Witch Hazel status!

Wow!!! I know this is an ancient thread, but I just HAD to read about the notorious Jouir De! OMG! I LMAO so hard that after a while I had to use my asthma inhaler because I couldn't breathe!!! If out of nothing else but pure (somewhat morbid) curiosity, I would LOVE to try this scent. I so regret having missed the opportunity. I actually do well with Civet although I know for many people it all just turns to feces. So far, I have been one of the lucky ones. Out of commercial fragrances, my signature scent is the original Guerlaine Shalimar and that has Civet in it. Also, by Guerlaine, the infamous Jicky, which caused a scandal when it was first released even prior to Shalimar. People back then said it smelled like ofal <sp> in a barn. Obviously animalic and very dirty because of the Civet. I was curious about Jicky so managed to find and buy a sample vial online. I tried it on cautiously expecting horrible things. But lo and behold, it was rather soft and pretty and my skin just drank it all up! What a let down. I am certain that the original contained genuine Civet and that is VERY tough stuff as some of you know and takes an expert perfumer's skilled hand and a wearer with very unique skin chemistry to make it morph into something beautiful. I can totally do Civet well, so if any of you have any Jouir De left ( hah! right!) I would be more than happy to buy it from you. Hey, I might end up smelling as if I rolled around in a nasty barn yard too, but it's the curiosity thing with me always. I really am like a cat I guess and look where that gets them sometimes! LOL!!!

 

Congrats! Pretty soon you'll be whatever comes after Sexologist lol

 

 

You are already cool : )

 

 

HURRRRRRYYY

Aww, thank you Lady Victoria and right back atcha! And look! I am now a Disgruntled Elf!!! LOL! Yaaaaay!!! Happy me and hey, disgruntles elves need love and LPs too!

I've tried OCCO SLF several times now, trying to sort out my feelings about it, and apparently I just have a somewhat ambivalent reaction.

 

I LOVED the description of this, and I am always drawn to the honey, amber musk combo. When I put this on, I do get a hint of the cherry smell others have mentioned--a very sour cherry on me. It is not a pleasant scent. It is not what I think of as a musky scent, or a honeyed scent, or an ambered scent. My nose registers it as sharp and sour and something to draw back from.

 

That being said--I find the scent COMPELLING. I can't stop sniffing, even though each time my nose prickles and I kind of draw back. But then I'm immediately pressing nose to elbow crook again.

 

The scent does not register with my conscious brain as sexy. And yet--I find the self effects hitting immediately. Not in a I-want-to-f**k-everything-not-nailed-down way. More in a dreamy, languid, I just want to lie around and revel in the sensuousness of being in this body. I feel confident but not charged up. Just very, very quietly pleased with myself.

 

I wore this in public for the first time yesterday. I have a friend who is an art photographer who occasionally uses me as a model, and yesterday was our first time doing a nude--outdoors, no less! I was scrambling through my LP collection, wishing my sale package had already arrived, trying to find the perfect scent to match the mood of what we were doing. And this was the only possibility that came to mind.

 

About halfway through the drive, she commented on how good I smelled and, as we talked, said she really needed to get back to wearing perfume! And I have to say--when it came time to take off my clothes and stand naked in somebody's garden, listening to traffic whizz by on the road just beyond the stand of trees, I felt perfectly comfortable and relaxed. No worries about the camera, either! I just did the poses, and reveled in feeling the grass pressed beneath me, the breeze moving over me.

 

All of which leads me to conclude--even though I am in not in love with the way this smells, I am going to want a full bottle. Too useful a tool to pass up!

BlackCat, I love the way you have described this. I get a similar reaction to the scent and effects. "Dreamy and languid" is such an apt description to me. As for the scent, I agree with you on that too. I feel COMPELLED to sniff it. Constantly curious about how it is transforming. It definitely will NOT be ignored!

OCCO SLF is a quintessence of smelling sexy for me. Can't wear it too often as sweet scents wear me down after a while, but it is great and gets me tons of compliments from people. SLF is also quite strong so I have to watch myself not to overapply it.

Today I'm wearing it with my LFM unscented.

 

At start OCCO SLF is soft ambery and slightly powdery honey on me. After an hour or so it deepens and gets this wonderful humid hue to it that I can't quite describe. Somehow reminds me of flower garden smell after rain, but it's still rich honey&amber. Probably it's musk acting that way, even though I don't perceive musks as humidity in any other scent. Coworker told me once that I smelled like an exotic flower with this fragrance, and I kind of understand where that is coming from even though flowers there are mostly a feel, not a real scent.

 

One of my favs for sure

Fleur, you have managed to pin down in one perfect word, the thing that I have been unable to describe. Blackcat felt you nailed it too. The word, HUMID! This is a word that I feel sums up the smell of copulins for me. A certain kind of dampness to them, I have to say that I do not get any of the cherry scent people have spoken of, but perhaps a hint of the powder. It is not overpoweringly powdery to me, just a hint. It is a gently sweet smell on my skin, and yes, I have gotten the whole incensey smell that people have mentioned. I love it, just love it. Now here is the *really* strange thing about SLF and I have not experienced this with any of the other copulin enhanced scents yet. The Cops simply push aside the other scents involved and rule the show completely until like maybe 10 to 12 hours have passed, at which point the sweet amber and honey and muskiness finally come to the surface. Not that the Cops relent mind you, they simply quiet down enough to let the other ingredients shine. It absolutely mystifies me! And I mean that in a GOOD way. It takes very, very little of this stuff and on me, it has incredible staying power. A bit of it clung around the neck of my robe and now days later, it simply smells like a beautiful, soft, exotic, sweet incense. Summing up my impression? It lends pure FASCINATION to my senses. I adore it. It's not the prettiest scent by any means, but it most definitely has an almost hypnotic effect on me. As Blackcat said. Compelling!

Hi everyone, I have a question that I have been wondering about for some time. Not sure if this has ever been addressed here, but here goes:

Now I know that copulins need your body's heat to release if I am understanding right, BUT can you use something such as Open Windows to apply to a piece of mail you are sending to someone via USPS/snail mail to encourage a postive response, open up communication and a positive reception or would it all just go flat and do nothing? I know that it does sort of stain because I have tested it out on a piece of scap paper, but thought I could apply a bit to the glossy surface of a greeting card. I would love to hear your thoughts on this!

I so wanted LP Red to work for me, but as much as I love cinnamon in food or as a home scent, I just can't wear it on my skin. ( Amps like CRAZY! I have the same prob with certain Vanillas). Good ideas here. I have a trial vial from years ago that I had sort of written off. Maybe I can play with it and blend with something else to quiet that cinnamon right on down. MAYBE... just maybe, some Phero Girl with it?

Wow, the scent and effects sound lovely. Is this one still available?

OMG!!! Yikes!!! I am overwhelmed by the awesome choices. I am limited, so will have to use some self restraint. : ( I HATE self restraint at times like this!!! ) It's a total blowtorch!!!

That really does sound nice! Very thoughtful! Hope you both enjoy it to the fullest. ( nudge wink )

I have decided I will include further excerpts from the appropriate story.

 

I would compare this to The Smoking Bun somewhat except it is darker and deeper and more mysterious; it's a worn soft leather with various scents deep in its folds and soooooo sexy, omg I've been huffing myself silly since I put it on. I have a warm glow in regards to my role in helping to come up with this one because I love it!

 

from Russian To Conclusions: an Agent Null adventure

by Julian Lune

 

Agent Null looked slightly askance at the clientele of La Bete Noire, it was a thoroughly Bohemian establishment to be sure, he just didn't expect so many types of activity would be occurring within its shabby walls. But Katerina had summoned him thus and he knew the price of ignoring such an invitation would be painful.

 

The air was thick with smoke and the smells of coffee and various liqueurs, a poetry reading was in progress. Kat assumed the stage in her leather regalia as always. She held up a hand until silence spread out among the attendees. She knocked back a shot of vodka and began.

 

Your stupid world, she read

so gray and vacuous

so tremendously dull

the evil in its banality chokes me

it renders me like a fly

in sticky sugar water, glutton of its own stupidity.

 

She snapped her notebook shut and glared down at the crowd. They were quick to applaud. She joined Null at his table.

 

"What do you think?" she asked, taking a familiar black box from one of her many pockets, then bent forward for a light.

 

"I think it's bleak and dark, much like your worldview."

 

She nodded, exhaling through her nose. "Diplomatic, but also truthful."

 

Null sipped from a demitasse of thick Turkish coffee and waved a hand in front of his face, which did little to dispel any of the ambient odors. "Can we talk here, Kat?"

 

She shrugged. "I despise Fleming's, they are all so smug there. It is stupid!"

 

"But you belong there as much as anyone."

 

"Feh! But it is not so secret, the thing."

 

"No?"

 

She glared at him and Null did not take particular offense, it was her normal expression. "You are knowing the dancing?"

 

He smiled. "Various sorts, yes."

 

"I am mole for smugglers cell in Prague, my target is learning ballroom dancing."

 

Null couldn't help it, he snickered, and Kat snatched the cup from his hand. A bit of the coffee spilled onto his skin and its bitterness held an interestingly sweet edge, which rivaled the smoke from Kat's Sobranie for aromatic dominance.

 

"This is not funny, pretty boy. I had no time for silly feminine rituals as a child, Father was training us in the family business."

 

And Null mused how interesting it was that this was the only family he knew of who specialized in espionage.

 

"Doesn't Pov know how to dance?"

 

"He says I am having the two left feet, so I kicked him."

 

Null took back his cup and poured another serving. "Of course you did."

OMG Luna! This is AWESOME! I love, love, LOVE it!

Not at all. There is no reason to feel guilty. The pheros will only lend you some leverage. Ultimately people have minds and wills of their own and the pheroes are NOT going to sway their will. I am in a relationship, but of course I am attracted to other people. Attraction is one thing, acting on that attraction is another thing entirely and that is a huge threshold to cross. I simply don't believe that the pheroes can push people to do anything that they are not on some level willing to do anyway.

And as people have quite rightly pointed out already, making yourself more attractive through using pheroes is absolutely no different than other more conventional methods that are used to make us more attractive. And yes, selfishly, I mostly want to feel good myself. At this point in time that is my primary motivation for using them. I want to feel better, happier, lighter. If they make me seem more attractive in the process, then that is a nice extra! But like all of the other things, the makeup, the clothes, the fragrance, jewelry, etc. I do those things mostly for ME. I spritz a little of my fave perfume on my pillow every night. That is for ME because I love it. Please don't feel guilty. Enjoy the results. The people who are responding to you are enjoying them too.

Rose, I think phero's and cops can affect people in different ways. I know I have felt bitchy whenever I wear one that has B-Nol in it, so now I try to stay clear of those blends unless I want the inner bitch to come out...

 

Sometimes, it can just be the time of the month that using EoW can have that effect... Maybe wait a few days and try this one again and see if you get the same response...

I thought I was past the monthly cycle thing DolphinDolls, but who can say what kind of hormonal strangeness continues to vex people? Maybe it did bring out a hint o' Birch Goddess. I Will proceed with caution and pay clear attention to what happens.

Yeah, women who are still having their normal cycles can get bitchy with cops at certain points in their cycle. I personally have never had the over-bitchiness (hell, I am kind of a bitch anyway, so who can tell....LOLOLOLOL)......now I am in full-blown meno, and have't run across any current issues either.

 

I say try it again in a few days to a week and see what happens. Also, you may try applying less.

LOL Dolly! Most of us have that potential and while I am mostly nice, I can go there in a big way, but this came out of nowhere, or so it seemed. Like you, pretty sure I am mostly, if not all the way done with the memo. I did not think I went too crazy with it, BUT I love the scent so much, I put a dad on each wrist, between my breasts and behind each ear. I will admit that I could smell it clearly so maybe for me, that was too much. Will have to try starting off lightly next time and see how it goes. Perhaps I can find my happy medium that way.

@dolly you are definitely not a bitch. you just don't suffer fools/foolishness. if that's being a bitch we should all be bitches with a capital F.

 

@roseb that's never happened to me but I see others have....or, is it possible it was something else, like, were you just hungry?? I don't mean to trivialize, I'm asking seriously.

No worries Tyvey, I don't think it sounded as if you were trivializing it at all. With these things, you really do need to consider all factors and truthfully I can not recall if I was hungry at that time. Thank you for bringing that up though, since when I do experiment from this point on that will be something I try to factor in with respect to potentially odd self effects.

@Rose, you may be sensitive, or you may have just applied to much. This is easier to do with the OCCOs/Pherogirl because these LPs are specifically designed to hide the smell of them. It's easy not to realize actually how much you just applied. You coudl try again with a little dot of the offending LP on your wrist & no where else. A. it will be easier to wash off if it's bothersome & B. it won't be so close to your nose.

Thanks Beccah, the potential sensitivity was a concern for me as well and am hoping that just using less will be sufficient as opposed to not using them at all. I know it is odd to say with so many people expressing feelings about the coupling "funk factor" of cops , but they really do seem to make magic with my skin and turn into something that at least I perceive as smelling beautiful. Hopefully, less will remedy the problem assuming it was the OCCO that flipped my switch. Crossing my fingers! Thanks for all of your thoughtful insight everyone!

Well, it's official. It would seem that I should have been reincarnated as a woman with lots and lots of $$$$$$. Alas, that is not the case, but WOW.. these are making me WANT!!! Mara, congratulations on these. Brilliant! Especially "Shut up and get a job!" LMAO!!

OMG! These labels rock! And the potion descriptions sound yummy. Very nicely done!

Another thing is that sometime we have to be cautious of the people that have the biggest open reactions to pheromones. Some of these people have less of social filter and may be more irrational or a lil crazy than they let on.

Yes!!! I admit I can be paranoid about people and outside of it simply being inappropriate , this is the reason I will experiment with my Copulin based stuff and other sexy stuff only when I know I am going to be home or will wait for my partner and wear them lightly when I am out with him. For me, I guess I just figure, "Hey, crazy people have libidos too!!! And many are clinically hypersexual!!" And yes Loki, as you point out, they do not always wear their "crazy" on their sleeve. Perhaps I am overly cautious, but better safe than sorry.

Hi everyone, I realize that this is an old thread but I figure that here at LP, EOW is always a relevent topic, so here goes: As for me, I really do like the odd smell of the cops. To me they smell almost... resiny? I don't even know if it is my olfactory perception of the smell, or the way it reacts with my skin chemistry, but ANYWAY..

I had an experience recently and am wondering what the hell THAT was all about. I was home alone and wasn;t going to have to go out so I figured it would be a perfect time to experiment w/ trying the OCCO Gold trial vial I got. I put some on, it was the usual, LOVED it when it dried down, which for some reason seemed to take longer than usual. I love, love, love this OCCO, but here's the rub:

Out of nowhere, all alone feeling fine I suddenly found myself feeling VERY irritable and BITCHY!!! I am wondering if this is yet another hormonal surprise that menopause is serving up in terms of mood stuff, but it did NOT feel like that kind of mood swing thing. What I am now wondering is, can EOW/Cops cause this kind of self effect? I mean seriously, I got irritable with a warm, fuzzy, adorable kitten for wanting to snuggle too close to me!!! WTF??? I let cats walk all over me both figuratively and literally, so how could I get annoyed over that? Heaven knows they and the pheros can be unpredictable, but has anyone else ever experienced anything like this?

Just to clarify, I did have a reaction such as this one once before that I can recall on Pherogirl. I so hope it's not true because I do love the scent. I would greatly appreciate anyone's imput on this. Thanks! BTW, the sweet kitten couldn't have cared less and is snuggling with me even as I type.

I was just wondering can a social mone play off of the wearer as sexual? I wore a purely social mone with no cops and I was called beautiful about 1.2 million times from about 1.2 million men. I was also fawned over, but mostly almost exclusively by men both straight and gay. I literally had a fanboy/base creation moment with this phero that blew me away. It literally sucked the men into my orbit. I was just standing there.

 

Now with cops blend LP's and otherwise it is rare to get a guy to say something to me no matter how little. They will look and notice, but the social/nonsexual mone really magnetized them and they would not stop talking to me.

 

Women would give me DIHLs, but the men really seemed to be affected.

 

 

I think that's cool! I have suspected as much of the social ones, thinking that people might find you attractive in a way that was non-threatening and not blatantly sexual and would ergo, be unafraid to get closer and get to know you and be attracted? Even without the presence of the cops which seem to come on too strong for many, men can tend to find me difficult to approach (damned if I know why) and this sounds like what you are describing Honeycake. Perhaps better to draw them in with the social and then once you are alone with them, pull out the heavier ammo. Fluffy is right. Happy DOES = Sexy!!!

I have never had a problem with this, but I do protect mine really well. But when in doubt, you are right to ask and it was a good question.

I used to make the mistake of when I would get an LP pkg. in the mail, I would be so excited that I would try on whatever I ordered plus a bit of the trial sizes and smellies all at once in various places. SUCH a bad idea for me! These days, I exercise my self restraint and try to give a product a good test run, maybe a couple of days or so, see what if any self effects I get, what effects they might have on others and make a clear mental note of the reactions before moving on to something else. If anything, these days it takes me a bit of time to get around to all of them, but I find for me, it's much better that way.

I am still experimenting with pheros so I am not really sure, but I do know that I LOVE the blend of Open Windows and DHEAs in Levitation. It really is remarkable stuff. It does what I need it to do emotionally. If I need to cry,rant, get it all out, then that is what it helps me do. If I have already cleared myself of whatever is bothering me, then it just makes me really happy and sort of buoyant <sp> . The first time I used it, I went from giddy, positively euphoric, to my emotional floodgates bursting and realizing some really incredible and simple truths about things in my life, collapsed from exhaustion and woke up an hour or so later feeling just AMAZING!!! All this in one little bottle, but of course this is just my experience with it. After the storm, it has all been very happy feeling with this blend for me.

Hi Blackcat and welcome! LOVE your avatar! I saw that cute little devil on Facebook around Hallow's last year and fell in love with that adorable critter. I WANT ONE!

Congrats mover uppers! I too hope to achieve cool status some day.

OMG!!! Just got around to trying OCCO GOLD and all I can say is " Ohhhhh... honey, HONEY! Yes.. YESSSS!!!" LOL! First let me say that I am a total hoe for honey. When I first put this one on, it smelled very close to Phero Girl to me. which I also love, but PG is smuttier on my skin. The cops on this one took longer to die down on me than usual for some reason. Like maybe a 2 hours? Strange. I was at home anyway, so no biggie. Once this dried down totally though, it came through on me as DIVINE honey that really popped, totally amped (YAY) mixed w/ something like marshmallow? I have to say also that this one has some amazing staying power! I put this on yesterday afternoon after showering and it is over 24 hours later and i can *still* smell it! I absolutely adore it and am in honey heaven. If you dislike honey, then you have been fairly warned. As for my opinion... YUMMY!

Welcome Fleur! You will love it here! : )
