Has anyone kept this long enough to see how it ages?

I ordered a bottle and later received a sample in a trade. They're both good, but the older one ... weowza ! Yummy!!!

Anyone tried SWS at the airport?

mine is always oil. I have no problem with dispersion since I live in a tropical climate.

LalaDinky, Are there any pheros you use in spray?

Thanks, Luna! I hope it works on me like it does on you!!!

Just got my vial. Holy Smokes, this is YUMMY!

For the ladies that have worn it ... what effects have you noticed from both self-effects and others? (If any fellas know of ladies wearing it, do share.)

I knew immediately when the labels were posted by Mara that this month was going to be special ( seems like I think that each time). This month IS fantastic. If you're a tactile person, this month's shipment will delight before you even get into your order (fragrance reviews to follow later). From the special bag they're in to the lasered labels. Needless to say, it heightened the anticipatory excitement ... sort of like foreplay, but for perfumes. Not only was my nose excited, but so were my fingers!

OMG! Perfect Match is just that: PERFECT! So far I have only tried it in The Promise, but I have a bottle of Bonded/Perfect Match on the way that I found on the trade pages, but I can attest to the fact that this phero really works. I just wrote a review of my experience of it in The Promise thread, but also wanted to share on this thread.

 

Please, please, please, if you have not tried this phero, do so.

 

This morning I woke up to coffee, a bouquet of Iris, Weigela and Mountain Laurel, that are all in bloom in our backyard, with a bottle of The Promise next to it and my husband sitting there all smiles....I'm like, "What is going on?" Apparently he had gone down to the P.O. to get the mail early morning and there was the pkg from Romance of Yesteryear with The Promise amongst the mail. He said, he wanted to surprise me, so he opened it not knowing I had ordered it for one of our daughter's who is getting married in the spring. He said he already smelled it and that "This one, is Perfect!" I didn't have the heart to tell him that I had ordered it for our Heather, so I put some on figuring I could order more.

 

Well....perfect it is and perfect it was. I was literally crying because it truly helped create a magical morning for us. I will continue to wear this for my beloved husband who has always somehow managed to keep his promises to me and his family all these years, has helped make our dreams come true, AND if our daughter's fiancé is half the man/father that he is she'll do just fine.

Great story!! Gushing with you!!

If you're crazy so am I. MM and Carbon Black are my favs from this release set.

 

I love the fresh, airy, cool scent. A bit fresh a bit floral. A very happy unobtrusive scent. I want one more bottle ideally boosted with something.

 

In feel only, this reminds me of another scent, Rainbow Falls. RF had different notes but it was another feel good, o'happy day type of scent.

 

This is a light happy floral. An airy, outdoorsy and good natured scent.

That's a perfect description, StacyK! I've been trying to find the words, but was so distracted by my own reaction that I was at a loss for words. When I mentioned the mouth watering ... I meant it LITERALLY. The reaction doesn't linger, but it happens every time. Maybe it's some unidentified Pavlovian type response.

I love this one and keep finding myself going back to it. I have an unusual reaction to it and have no idea why, but would love to get some input on it. It makes my mouth water!! If it were a foody scent I would understand. When it first happened I thought it was odd, but it happens consistently every time and is coupled by a sensory based feel of nirvana. The nirvana feeling only lasts a moment or two but is really good while it lasts. Crazy response and it's fantastic!

Any ideas on what causes it?

Many thanks, Luna! That was very helpful ... both the info and link!!

I'm getting ready do some traveling for several weeks. Of course, I want my LP's with me and would love some helpful tips on packing to prevent leakage. (Or any other tips you think would be helpful .)

I've mostly set aside trial vials and trial sprays (both rolls-ons I converted to purse size sprays and sprays decanted to travel size). Being fairly new, I haven't run out of anything yet and don't know how much I'll need, so I'm sure I'm over-packing. My concern is something leaking and phero bombing in route or just smelling crazy strong while trying to schlep luggage via plane, bus and car. (Total travel time is about 20 hours.)

So far, I'm wrapping cap/bottle seams with plumbing tape, then in paper, then small plastic envelop (the ones we get with trials and sniffies). I'm sure I'll pack the envelopes in more paper followed by food saver sealed bag.

Does anyone know 1 - if there's a volume restriction for perfumes? 2 - if the means of packing will suffice? 3 - how do trial vials and small spray bottles with perfumes and pheros do with the pressure from a plane?

Oh, just had another thought/question. Has anyone tried freeing their perfumes? Just thinking the freezing my help prevent leakage. Probably not ideal for the sprays. On second thought ... it may not be such a good idea.

So grateful to have the forum family for questions. Thanks for your help!!

^^ I have not tried it with this, but I have found PS to be layerable with almost everything, It does work to smooth out some scents with pointy edges.

I have found that to be true too. I also like Caramel Musk for pointy edges. Really love the things a sweet fragrance can do to mellow a scent that starts standing too strong with my chemistry - especially when it's a scent I love!!! Those two have really helped expand what I can wear. And, of course, it surprises me how much cycle can play a roll in how things react with my skin. Crazy! But, fun seeing what I can wear this week that wasn't happening last week

 

Thank ya' dear :-) most happy to leave the science behind it in the hands of those more capable. Yes, so *happy* OW works for me!

 

...emoticons aren't working else I would have peppered up this note something lovely lol. Guess I exceeded my quota for today :-D

That's fantastic!! I just got a bottle of OW roll-on myself and have started enjoying it.

The other night, I couldn't sleep and had a bit of a cold. I know staying away from pheros is recommended with bugs, but I had nothing to lose. So, I grabbed my Gotcha ... and sprayed away. OH, it was heaven in 5 minutes!! Whatever it was that had my system revved up had melted away. Oh, the peace came with the calm. And, the wrestlessness - GONE!

I have no idea why it worked or if it would work again in that situation, but I won't hesitate to use it if it does! Gotcha brought the peaceful love feeling!!

Thanks for the suggestions, QG, Snoopy & Luna!!

 

I love The Big Easy with Teddy BB. If you can find any on the trade pages - grab it! It has an herbal scent which is calming and relaxing.

 

ETA: Not sure if you've seen this http://lovepotion.invisionzone.com/index.php?showtopic=719 it kinda' relates to this topic.

I have not seen this thread. Thanks for sharing. It makes me want to try one even more now!

I've heard that men's pheros can have benefits for women. I also remember reading some cautions in some of the men's threads about some blends were NOT good for women but that several could be used and often were.

This has me really curious to try them. Can the wonderfully helpful forum family make recommendations . . . as well as let me know which should not be used by the ladies?

Thanks! . . . Oh, also, any good unisex phero enhanced fragrances?

I ended up getting this in oil but plan on taking about half of it and converting to a spray. I bought a big bottle of perfumers alcohol last year and just ordered a couple of atomizers. I think this would be great with a swipe of oil and one walk through spray.

Hi greenergal - what ratio recipe do you use when you convert your phero enhanced oils to spray?

This scent is beautifully indescribable at the moment except to say it's the first scent I've fallen in lovewith out of the vial ... and then discovered it was sold out. I'll be doing my first ISO for this lovely!

This has been my phero of choice this week. Really enjoying the happy feeling without the vulnerable. Nice!

I was just in the Topper thread when the discussion touched on a-nol crashes and how a few people can get them if using it too many consecutive days. Does that happen with DHEAS? What about the chances of OD? I'm waiting on my bottle of Topper, but am considering getting a bottle of UN DHEAS too.

Love LP's and pheros. This has to be the grown-up version of being a kid in a candy store!!

Hehehe...they are, aren't they?!

 

I don't have all the little nuances of this one and H&S sorted out yet b/c they're still new to my collection. H&S feels more feminine and a bit softer, where TH seems more androgynous and neutral on/to me. TH doesn't, oddly, feel more intimate than S&H. It's, hmm, more chipper(?) and out going. Where as I feel H&S is also "friendly", it's more of a subtle "draw people in" kind of vibe.

 

Just typing out my thoughts...I'm liking both of these quite a bit lately

Thanks for the comparison. I came to the TH thread to see if there was feedback on the different feel of the two. That helps a lot ... and has me adding H&S to the ole' shopping list.

 

Dom and Leather don't have cops. Dom is minus Est, too, which I'm a fan of in the BI. I think Topper lightens the 2 (Dom & Leather) but they still have a "get down to business" vibe at work - but I think it definitely lightens things and keeps either from being too serious - on me at least

 

 

CT has a higher concentration of a-nol in it than TMI so if you had good luck with that - and it wasn't too much a-nol all together - the TMI shouldn't be a problem. The higher concentration of b-nol in TMI may lend to those moments of over-thinking for your friend as, for me, I can become introspective while wearing it. But if you have it buffered with the Topper you should do well

 

(I'm a bit of a molecule nerd...in case you were wondering )

 

I have not actually, that I can recall, ever worn Topper solo! I'm in shock a bit at this realization....I shall have to try it just so I can say I have!

 

Whoo, I tried TMI tonight. Not sure I've done that before. It makes me a bit intense. So it will be really interesting to see if Topper makes it fun and chatty!!!

Curious, NuTrix (aka:Marvelous Molecule Nerd) ... what about Topper and Leather? Have you tried that combo? It would seem to create a fun vibe but be good keeping things in check with people who tend to push a good thing too far - make sense? Just curious.

Pheros experimenting is such fun!

Would TMI work with Topper? Wondering if the lower anol in TMI would be a better fit than TC's higher anol percentage? I have an outing next weekend with a friend who randomly has moments of over-thinking and thought this might help keep the flow fun and upbeat. I've had good luck with her while wearing TC, but wanted a little Topper for sparkle. (Plus, my new bottle of Topper will likely be here by then and I really want to test drive it.)

Or would it be too much anol for either?

I've seen several people mention the sparkle, but how you described it here made things click. (I love LP learning curve ah ha moments Now I think I can better determine when to use it. I foresee dheas in my next order. I like to SPARKLE !!! Lol

Not that PM doesn't work well on it's own, but I've used Topper to boost it's mood.

 

To be honest, there isn't anything I haven't "Topped" at some point or another. Sometimes it's as little as 1 spray to my hair or blouse for a little lift That's how I've used it with PM. My hubs responds well to bonding blends like that one and Gotcha! But like mentioned above, if you went crazy on adding sprays it could be a step in the opposite direction of cuddling, lol, it could be too giddy for your intent since both PM and Gotcha! already have a-nol & DHEAS in them. I don't mind the playful vibe either though. A couple/few sprays have been really good with Cuddle Bunny & Sexology for me too. Lots of blends already have a-nol, so I got the single DHEAS for when I want to add some sparkle with less of the giddy/happy a-nol response. It's all part of the learning curve and finding what works for you

Thanks for the review. It's nice reading a guy's perspective.
