Ooo, thanks, NuTrix. I'm a bit of a foodie too ... though LP has made me appreciate florals much more! So many floral perfumes have sharp edges. LPs are so smooth it still surprises me every time. I keep smelling them to see if they will turn sharp, but time after time ... soothingly smooth!

I've ordered Gotcha and am waiting for my UN to arrive. Wondering if Ambrosial Summer would be a good cover? Which of the Crayons would also be a good match with Gotcha?

I'm still pretty new here, but after seeing this thread I started researching the molecule. Wow! It offers some pretty amazing benefits. Needless to say, I immediately ordered a fb of Gotcha.

I got this one in the UN oil. Excitement quickly faded when it didn't seem to work on me. In another thread (with another phero), I saw a comment about someone needing to really up the amount more with some pheros in order for that forum member to feel effects. Since other pheros seem to work best on me in spray form, I converted some FP into a spray to test it. It's in a tiny bottle I ordered for mixing UNs and scents, so the spray volume is probably pretty small. The effects definitely worked!! I used about 5-6 sprays in the air walking into each one before spraying the next and making sure one was a good face level mist. I'm amazed at how this late in the evening and this level of fatigue that I can remember the next three things I wanted to do without having a list! This is a good potion to keep on hand!!

Update: I needed to focus and get some multitasking items under way. After reading about going heavy on some pheros, I decided to give it a try with Focus. It seems converting to sprays work best for me, so without anything scented I converted the Focus to spray and used 5-6 sprays with the walk into the mist application being sure that one of the sprays would be at face level. Wow! It's late at night and I'm able to remember three things I need to do after this post. With this level of fatigue, that's VERY unusual. I'll copy this to the Focus Potion thread, but wanted to leave a note here since I commented about FP in the above.

I've had the same issue with TeddyBB and Focus. Maybe I need to use a much heavier amount and convert to spray. Good to know! Are the calming pheros less likely to cause an OD effect?

It's the same for me too, Misty. I just discovered LP's fragrances last month after ordering a couple of UNs and smelling the samples that came with them. It's opened a whole new playing field that has always been off limits until discovering LP! This forum has been wonderful too. Sometimes I'll try a fragrance that's still stronger than I can do. On another thread here, I learned how to convert to spray so I can still wear them. I'm a fragrance-wearing machine these days ... and I love it! Thank you to Mara and your team!!

Sooo nice to see others also stalking the calendar and anticipating the NR's!! ETA: Does Pavlov come to mind for anyone else?

I haven't tried SWS (thought it sounds like a good one for what you need), but have liked the effects of leather. It may be good to have more than one in case he responds better to one than another. Just suggestions. Good luck with your situation and let us know how things go.

I have been trying to determine what that little extra thing was with EST. This is it! Thanks for the info - I've been running that one through my head like a song from the radio ... over and over. Now, I can "stop the music" and enjoy the selfie.

Thanks, Halo and StacyK! I didnt't think about PP drawing attention, just the lowering of jealousy part. Staying low on the radar will be beneficial. Great tip. I can see TH will be the way to go. Many many thanks for your advice!

Thanks NuTrix and Eggers! Interesting, Misty. Haven't heard of that one. Keep us posted. You may have found a new use!

I keep seeing comments about pheros and November. What happens in November?

Loving Levitation! The other day, someone unintentionally, but permanently altered a project that I'd spent a lot of time getting ready to launch. Much of it I was able to correct and hopefully the parts that can't be corrected will still produce the desired results, but I was a bit steamed. He felt bad when he realized what he had done and I needed to tame the beast. So, I stepped out for a few minutes and started deep breaths of Levitation. 5 minutes later . . . can't say I was fully back to happy, but I was in a much better place and could fake that last 20%! This is FB on the next order, for sure!

I've seen it written before and will agree that fragrance is HUGE! I first tried SS4W in Sneaky Clean. It was not a fit for me personally. I did get hits, but the fragrance had sharp edges when I wore it. I've seen so many good things written about SS4W that I wanted to try it again, so when I heard the great reviews for Rocket Fuel ... well, I had to try it. WOW - big difference! I can't say how it will work with others, but the selfies are much nicer! And, I'm sure the Rocket Fuel will get good hits since SC did even though I was not a fan. Rocket Fuel and SS4W is very synergistic for me.

Thanks, StacyK!! Congrats on your crazies making the EX list. Unfortunately, these are blood. There's been talk about getting together soon, so wanted a chance to test drive some pheros before the when's and where's are decided. I have LFM and TH - love TH! There is a jealously component with one of them. Think TH would go well with Popularity? Or is that too much combining? Really appreciate the input. Great forum and advice!!

I loved this one out of the bottle. Some florals can get too strong and overbearing to me. Not this one. It's floral is perfectely balanced with the sugar. Initially, the sugar isn't noticable on me at all. After having worn it for several hours, the florals are barely noticable and the sugar remains but without being too sweet. This one is perfectly balanced from bottle to application to end of the day. Oh, and though it may seem an unlikely pair, I used it with Un Leather. I had an important meeting this afternoon and needed to come across as both strong and soft at the same time due to the dynamics of the meeting and people in attendance. It was the perfect match and the meeting went even better than planned.

"Your family sounds like assholes." I had to laugh. Don't hold back, Halo.:-) Ah ... there's truth there. Fortunately, my time with this side is kept to a minimum. AND, the other side is not only "salt of the earth" but the contrast ensures a higher level of appreciation for how amazing amazing the good side is and always has been. Thank you for your suggestions!

Had to share what happened today. I'm visiting my parents (who are seniors). They've both had some minor health stuff, but nothing major. Sometimes major inconveniences in their schedule from health things, but really nothing that can't be corrected. I have a background in health and have continued to stay current. Of course, when there's an issue, they come to me. Often, with diet changes, we've been able to make major differences (often in less than a week). BUT, until now, once they were feeling better they went back to the S.A.D. (Standard American Diet - ie, junk) Backing up to how this fits in with TC. I was trying to get a lot accomplished today and the coffee just wasn't getting the mental motor going. So, I wanted a little lift and decided to use TC. Getting back to the story ... Mom has gradually been coming around to the idea that if she wants permanent results, she's going to have to make permanent changes. BUT, she's continued to try to please Dad and his pallet - often at her own expense. After I put on the TC ... apparently it created a bit of a cloud. Mom informs me that she's put her foot down with dad and that his grumbling about only wanting to eat foods he likes . . . well, he's going to have to start eating ones he doesn't if he wants to feel better. This is HUGE! And, I had to leave the room to laugh as I imagined his expression. Now, to figure out how to keep the buzz going!

Fortunately, it's only one section of my family. The rest are great. With the "challenging" side ... if they perceive you as weak for any reason, then exploitation of weakness becomes sport. On the flip side, coming across as too strong makes you a threat and the games continue there too. So, trying to find that middle ground of too strong to challenge, but non-threatening. Wondering if SWS or Leather would be the best fit. Any thoughts or suggestions for which might be the best way to go?

I remember it being someone who seems to be in the same threads I read a lot ... and Shelly is often in the ones I read. So, could be.

I see what Luna, StacyK and Eggers mean with the socials being the way to go. I've got a few weeks before lift off, so I'll have time to experiment with which of those will work best with my chemistry. I always get tense when going through security. It still makes me uncomfortable when they take things out of my sight and rifle through it. Sometimes they wait until I'm there and go through it with me, but that hasn't happened every time. I try to keep things of value in pockets when traveling, so until I can get to the other side and make sure everything is still in the various pockets then I don't relax. Guess I have too many friends in the security field and hear just enough stories to be paranoid.

Thank you Luna! I remembered reading stories of helpful pheros, but couldn't remember which ones. Also remembered one person mentioning they were delayed by a security person with DIHL while they prolonged her time getting checked. I kind of had to chuckle because I tend to get checked often and thought nooooo, let's speed things up. Thank you again for your suggestions!

I've seen it mentioned a couple of times when reading other topics, but haven't found a topic dedicated to this one. When traveling via flight, which pheros do you find most beneficial?

I've seen mention of people getting selfies for the phero's and cops. Of course, I've gotten the expected selfies, but one that's surprised me is I get happy with cops. It's a real mood lifter for me. Do you get that kind of selfie when using cops? I love it and sometimes wear them places where I should stick with phero's because the self effects are so good. Side question: Love everyone's avatars. Where are you finding them? My profile's beginning to feel a bit naked.
