Cougarrific

Sorry -- I deleted this bc I posted it in the wrong topic.

I wore the scented version yesterday paired with Abby Normal's Dessicated Brains and promised myself that I would keep i mind that I am wearing TMI and not reveal all my secrets. This stuff hit me hard, but very stealthily -- I don't know what I was expecting, really, but Holy Sh*t, my friend and I chat chat chatted away for 2 hours straight. I felt so upbeat and comfortable and trusting and though I did not reveal my deep dark secrets, I did just barely hang onto them! I also noticed that the non-stop converstaion flowed both ways, not just with my friend, but with others that came into my sphere yesterday morning. Love it!!

So excited -- just ordered FBs of scented Cougar Potion, UN Open Windows and UN Cuddle Bunny and got freebies of FB Cauldron Cake and FB Spiced Cider Pudding. This along with my Luna's Miss Autumn and LP Red, I am going to be smelling so delectable all Fall and Winter!!! I can also see myself pairing all of these with the UNs that I ordered, plus the UN Lace and UN Heart and Soul that I already have on hand -- with the occasional UN Bang! layered underneath. Next Up: ... honestly, I don't even know what is next up. Too much stuff that I want!! Every time I place an order, it is an agonizing selection process that always ends with the promise of "next time". lol! UN Treasured Hearts for sure, I know that much.

I love LP Red soooo much -- but my BF says I smell like head shop everytime I wear it around him. Breaks my heart bc I love this stuff and I really thought he would love it, too.

Congrats! So happy for you! (I know I haven't been commenting, but I've been following your story!).

I don't know what I was thinking! -- this is nothing like GW! lol! This is heady, daydream-y, very floral, naturally sweet, -- this is like lying on the cool grass in the shade in a flower garden thinking of boys and lemonade. I love it!! and the H&S is PERFECT with this scent -- this is such a mood lifter for me.

Okay, Dolly's bottle that she had boosted with BI -- I recently won that in her auction. (I'm assuming it's the same bottle. lol!) Sometime in between her last post in this thread and placing it up for auction, she added 10 drops of cops to the bottle. Anyway, I finally had the guts and the opportunity to wear this out today -- I went out to lunch by myself and I wore this G-String BI X (the X is for the extra cops added). The hits were pretty cool, one stands out: a man at another table looked at me and then looked back to make more eye contact and say hello. He then slowly shifted in his seat so that he was turned towards me and had to practically talk over his shoulder to his lunch partner. ha! My self-effects were ... amazing. Within minutes of putting this stuff on, I felt GORGEOUS and SEXY and in a very good mood! I was putting on makeup and thought, "Damn! I'm gorgeous!" and i definitely walked with a lot of swagger to the restaurant! And my thoughts were very sexually oriented. I could not stop thinking about sex. I told BF that I am going to wear this the next time i'm with him and I want him to guage his reaction -- normally, I do not tell him the phero i'm wearing and then later we'll discuss any effects, but this time, I'm telling him up front so he can be aware of his sexual response and guage if it is more intense than normal? Because with me, yes the hell it is! (good grief, I cannot wait to wear this with him!!!! yowza!) And it smells extremely sexy in a hot, bothered, sweaty kind of way. Not classy sexy at all -- more like ... making out in the booth at the diner after having been to the bar and picking up this hot guy and who cares what his name really is, I'm just calling him Steve, mascara smudging, hair messed, bra strap falling down my shoulder and legs opening a little wider when he puts his hand on my thigh and the waitress having attitude at our PDA but who gives a shit what she thinks? this is HOT! This is the dirtiest honey with leather and musk. This is sneaking out of his apartment the next morning before he wakes up and smelling last night all over you on the cab ride home -- and smiling at every little memory of the night before!

When I first read the description of this one I was interested, but i wasn't all that excited. However, this stuff wears fantastically well on my skin! It is a berry shortcake-y scent. Black raspberry shortcake and it is soooo yummy. After a while, the cake wanes and the berries come forward without being too sweet and without being too sticky. The lime is a perfect accent. Lasts a long time on me, as well. Love it! And, the Bang! had the predictable effect on the BF. This is on my list of FBs to order.

Report on your findings, please! I'm curious how this works for you.

Tried this again and again with the lemon amped to infinity and beyond. So, with nothing to lose, I mixed this with Phero Girl, one-to-one, and that SMELLED DELICIOUS, if a little sticky-sweet. It also tamed the lemon and brought the maple forward.

Shipping Notice!! heck yeah -- come to me Gotcha! Should be able to pick up on Saturday -- can't wait!

Treasured Hearts is MAGIC -- at least with my boyfriend! I wore this (in Terra Mater) with three dots of cops and he could not take his eyes off me -- was so very affectionate, kept his hand on my knee while in the car, kept glancing at me, was very lovey and considerate of me. Now, he's normally a considerate and respectful person with an affectionately playful side -- but this time there was an added dimension of loving/adoring behavior towards me. it was awesome! and the lovemaking (all that loving adoring affection led to the bedroom!) -- OMG. sooo slow and sensual and bonding. And all night, he kept pulling me closer to him in his sleep. I was loving every minute of it. I've tested this blend, the Terra Mater w/ TH and cops, twice now and have had the same reaction both times. Just the TH alone draws out of him more intimate and tender behavior that isn't necessarily sexual. I love Treasured Hearts!!! Oh, also, I notice in myself that I'm way more loving towards him -- rubbing his neck, holding his hand, looking into his eyes more, etc. I feel like I want him to be comfortable and secure and know how much I appreciate him and I find myself being physically affectionate and feeling ... marshmallowy soft towards him. I am normally an affectionate person, but this turns it into a deeper moment somehow.

Terra Mater is a surprisingly great cover for cops. I dotted some cops on my wrists and at my cleavage, waited ten mins or so, then put on a normal amount of perfume. i could not smell the cops at all! And, the Terra Mater smelled ... deeper (?). But not heavy, or musty. Smelled sexier, but still like Terra Mater. LOVED IT!. and had the most amazing response from the BF -- he could not take his eyes off me! and was very affectionate, but with a sexy undertone. (Whew! i need something cold to drink... lol )

I placed this order yesterday -YESTERDAY!- and this morning, I'm sitting here with my coffee ... and plotting my next order. This is beyond bad, ya'll.

I thought i would love this one, but I cannot wear it at all. I think it must be stirring some long-buried scent memory for me bc it is physically repulsive to me -- instant and overwhelming nausea and headache. Had to wash it off and keep washing until it was completely gone. I sniffed it in the vial again today and shook my head. Can't do it. So weird, because I love chocolate and coffee. I really thought this would be a slam-dunk for me.

After receiving and testing the June NR sampler .. and having to factor in the upcoming August Sale and wanting to save some money back for that ... and finding two items on the trade boards that I want ... I finally placed my order for fbs of: Tropique Terra Mater Gotcha! UN This was wildly pared down -- had to put off the Flutterby (*wince*) and the Teddy BB (*grimace*) and the Cougar Potion (*whimper*). Also gave up Incandesence and scented Cuddle Bunny -- yep, I was prepared to place a BIG order ...and then read about the upcoming August Sale. And, I also know I probably won't be able to resist the July NR sampler, as I am sooo hungry for summer scents.

Now that I have placed my order and secured for myself a FB of this, i can write the review. lol! As a matter of fact, I kept logging in to make sure that no one else had started raving about it and starting some sort of buying furor. lol! My love for this was a complete surprise -- as a matter of fact, in reading the descriptions, this is the one about which I thought, "meh." I waited until I had tried all the others in my sample pkg before trying this one, and I only tried it just so I could say I had. In the bottle, total "meh." On my skin -- at first, so fresh and green, like fresh cut rose stems (I can practically see the thorns!) and so wonderful I don't want to stop sniffing. then it morphs into something not really awesome for about two minutes, and after that .... I'm in heaven. I love this. It is fresh and grounded, not pointy at all. I wish I could describe it better. I wear two drops of it every day, trying to both enjoy and preserve it. I notice the effects of the TH on both my BF and my son. Son is smoothed out, calmer and BF is affectionate in a very intimate (not necessarily sexual) way -- he sticks to me like glue, very touchy-feely, and seems emotionally closer, somehow. Lovemaking was unhurried, not urgent, and very bonding. I can see myself becoming immune to TH bc I will not want to stop wearing this scent. I thought about asking after a virgin blend, but I don't want to upset the balance of anything that is in it -- the phero may be adding something to the scent and my experience of it. i love it too much as it is to risk changing it at all.

This got a big two thumbs up from BF! -- and I like it, too! haha! Very summery to me. I love melons, and this blend is so pretty with the creamy coconut and vanilla sitting under the melon. My impression is that it's more juicy than fruity, if that makes any sense. FB on this one, especially after the BF endorsement.

I can't wear this one long enough to see if Gotcha! is having an effect on anyone, including myself. I have had it on a few times now, and the patch is so strong to me (me, who has trouble smelling patch at all!) that i have to go wash it off. And then, the patch lingers on my skin, having worked its way into my pores, and smells like horrible incense to me. I'm surprised bc I had thought I would love this one from the description. But then, this month's NRs are turning out to be full of surprises for me. In order to give Gotcha! a good go, I'm going to order it UN.

I got this as a freebie (buy two get one free) from Black Cat. Taking it for a test drive this morning -- and I can't wait to wear it this Fall. It reminds me of camping/Ohio/autumn/pancakes. Outside, right now, I am seeing bright blue summer skies and it's 90 degrees -- but in my mind's eye, i am wearing a beautiful, cozy sweater and kicking through leaves and sniffing the smoke from the first fires in fireplaces since last February. This scent is amazing!

Quiet Guys warns of wearing pheros around people with low social filters -- and alcohol is probably the best filter-lowerer out there! Those guys all like/want her (on some level), then they drink and the high-school boy pay-attention-to-me-I-want-you-but-don't-know-what-to-do-about-it behavior comes out -- especially likely to happen when they are in their "pack". I'm glad it was just a phone call, I think that kind of situation could have gotten out of hand if she were there in person. However, I would like to make it clear that I do not blame anyone but the boys for their behavior -- pheros or not, alcohol or not, we are all responsible for our own behavior.

To me, this is a softer version of Gypsum White -- softer, sweeter, more sheer. The dry down is marvelous and the scent holds, not morphing much except to sweeten a bit. Truly lovely. I missed out on a fb of Gypsum -- not making that mistake with this one!

Hear, hear!

Thanks for the suggestions! Spraying closer to my skin is not something that had occurred to me -- i kept trying to move the atomizer further away from me! lol! (d'oh!)

I do just have the UN, though my first experience with lace was in the White Gypsum -- marvellous self effects with that one. happy, lighthearted, a little giggly -- very nice. This last time, I felt a little 'over happy' if that makes any sense. With Lace, for me, LESS IS MORE.
