Lovin Lindee's Pinky Sweet. It doesn't roar carnation, for me it's more of a steady purr and I'm finding it mixes so nicely with LP Pink, OCCO Pink, or over Cougar. With the Flora Royal I'm getting a lot of clove. I like putting this one on after I've been outside in the yard....it's refreshing/bracing, yet light.

After last night I am going to have to say that if I had to have one phero to have to choose, that Cougar would be it, because I have certainly found my sweet spot with this one. My "magic" formula for last nite: OCCO Pink: a lollipop and wrist pulse points, small of back, and swipe up each arm, followed by UNCougar oil to same spots, but a little heavier, then 4 sprays of Scented Cougar Potion over body/arms, etc. followed by a little of Pink and Sweety to wrists and neck. Anyways, went out with husband to see the Jimmie Vaughan show and what a night! Standing room only, but people were so great we ended up sharing a table and when we weren't dancing we were soaking up the incredible performance. Jimmie spent a good hour after the initial show jamming on stage with some great local artists, including our buddy Greg Piccolo on sax. We were like 6 feet away from the stage at that point. Lots of eye contact, big smiles. Earlier that night we met a lady and her husband who knew Jimmie and she told me as we connected more, that there might be a chance to meet and greet him after, but to keep it under my hat....Afterwards people were buying shirts, etc. and we were sitting talking to some buddies when we realized the crowd had thinned out....I got up to go look for the lady I had met and to ask the door man if there really was going to be an opportunity to get autographs, etc. He said Jimmie was already back on his bus, but his manager happened to be standing there chatting with him and asked me what would I like to do.....I said an autograph would be great, so I handed him a piece of paper and pen thinking how lucky I was to have him get that for me. But then he says, "Come with me." and puts his arm thru mine and escorts me to where the bus is and up the stairs. I go inside, there are a couple people sitting there talking/chillin....Jimmy immediately gets up, comes over, talks to me, gives me his autograph, has his manager take a few pics of us, we chat a bit, he gives me a hug/kiss, I say good bye and his manager escorts me back down the stairs and back to my husband who's chatting with some other musicians and the lady(who gives me a wink) and her husband. All I can say is Wow. An incredible performance, a class act, and a total gentleman who treated me like royalty and totally unexpected. Wow.

Picked up my LPMP package today and was blown away by the evident time, care and generosity that was put into everything. Thank you everyone and thanks for combining my orders. I now know to make a list thruout the month of what I want/need and then place one order. I must say that I was heart-touched by the bottle of Ishtar's Star that you sent. After reading about this fragrance in your sold out archives, I hardly feel worthy of wearing it, (see, I can actually be humble sometimes, lol). Thank you for thinking of me and including that surprise. LPMP rocks and that's just what I plan to do tonight too, when I go see the Jimmy Vaughan concert at the Knickerbocker. Since I always have to try everythiing on at once when they first arrive, now I have to go re-shower and pick my potion for the night, lol. xoxo

If it wasn't sold out I would beg/pay Mara to make some spray.....but I don't think she's gonna do a re-brew. Maybe if we ALL beg, lol.

Hey, Blackcat! I hear ya about a liitle goes a long way...although I put on quite a bit of this when I wear it as alll perfumes fade on me rather quickly for some reason. Always have, so I usually have to reapply ( I check in with others first to see). I have it in oil, but wondering if I could make a spray out of it? I recall reading something somewhere on the forum about that.... Anonymous: Sounds like you had fun too! So perfect for Ladie's night out. I love swiping this on my friends and watching them relax and have fun. My husband loves the fragrance as well. For me, laughter in a bottle with a bonding undertone. Perfect.

So happy to be able to get my bottle(s) of this. It's fast becoming one of my all around scents/pheros. It's been helpful to me as well as a couple of my friends that I've shared a tiny bit with. Most noticeably was the first time I used it was when my husband and I attended our oldest son's new band's concert. He was the keyboardist for many years with Physical Graffitti, a Led Zeppelin tribute band and now is in a band called Vinyl Revolution. This was a fun night where everyone, friends, family of all ages got together and for me, the sexology in XAppeal was great. My husband loves the scent and it really seems to help with deeper bonding with others, even tho I know that Treasured Hearts, Heart and Soul are used more for that, I haven't tried them yet. I plan to at some point. Anyways, the next time I wore XAppeal was during an afternoon of helping a colleague who is retiring to Italy to inventory her herbs, make tea blends and to see clients that afternoon at her shop. I have my own office, but I also see clients at different locations. One of my clients can be very overbearing and controlling and it's hard for her to see her own stuff sometimes, yet she's a wonderfully strong woman. She came to see me that day and was preparing for a reunion with her daughter and family that evening after a time of separation for various reasons. She was also having some issues with her man. She became much more open/vulnerable with me that day during her chart reading. I had my little vial of XAppeal with me and decided to share a swipe with her on her wrists. Hugs and she went on her way, and I on mine. I had more clients to see that day and was meeting a a few friends later to watch the Kentucky Derby over dinner in Newport. I put on some more XAppeal followed by Cougar later that night and cannot begin to tell you how much fun I had that afternoon and evening. It was a group of very professional, intelligent women, some of which I just met that night, some older friends, but I never laughed so hard. We ate, rooted for "our" horse (yippee, California Chrome WON) and then went to one of the ladies house after to sit and talk some more. Deep, deep talk about everything, our men, our children, etc. with much bawdy laughter and silliness, like a pajama party on steroids....Women just having a great time and feeling good about themselves. Anyways, in the meantime my client whom tried the XAppeal texted me that her little reunion with daughter, friends and man went extremely well and she was happy as a clam..... I drove home.....had to use the highbeams on my jag as one of the low beams were out and cop pulls me over.....he seemed confused, them slowly smiled, then told me to get my light fixed and let me go, he he. It's weird.....but you can tell when the pheros work, cuz people get this vague, puzzled look about them like they are temporarily lost and then something shifts and clicks in.... Good thing, cuz I didn't need to get a ticket at 3:00 am... altho snuggly hubby at 3 am was another story, lol.

Upon reflection, I'm thinking Kangaroo is too much like those raspberry/crème granola bar thingies for me, but I really like the MLH phero for a nice kind of "staying on task" kind of vibe. I'll use up my sample tho in order to get that MLH effect. Geez, Nutrix....hope you're on the mend....

Off to Newport soon to see clients, so I thought I'd better post my review of Agent XXX before I forget. Yesterday, I started out with Bulgari BLVII layered over a bit of OCCO Blue to which I added a tad of XAppeal later on....nice. I was planning on re-showering and wearing Tickle Tickle with Gotcha to go out dancing, but Agent XXX arrived on the scene (thanks StacyK) and I could not resist trying some on the tops of my hands and wrists. Immediate hit/tingle to the spine. This to me smells like how I wish LP Red would smell on me. The sample of LP Red I have just doesn't work for me, but somehow AgentXXX does. Anyways, I went dancing with my husband with the intent of waiting to use more of AgentXXX's assistance when we returned home, lol. It was a very upbeat yet mellow, happy, everyone in a good mood, chatty kind of night. Of course it helped that we were with a group of people whom we've danced with for many years and the band, Johnny and the East Coast Rockers are old friends. My husband and their pianist jam together time to time. Perhaps it was the full moon energy helping as well, but we had a blast. People kept coming by our table, touching my arm, sharing news/stories, the waitress was warm and attentive. I had ONE drink only, but it felt like 3....my usual key lime martini, but I think maybe the phero amped it somehow. Yet, it was a wonderful buzz and there seemed to be a glamour like aura to the whole night. We danced energetically and effortlessly and everyone around us did as well.....it was like sprinkling energetic fairy dust on people as we danced by...smiles, laughter. as people got caught away in the vibe. Hard to describe, but wonderful. When we came home I did a lollipop of AgentXX and pulse points, and swipes up the arm. I think I may have overdid it tho......cuz it was like we were in a haze....my husband would start to be pretty insistant and me responsive and then we'd drift out to sea and float for a bit, then we'd start up again and float away again.....This stuff is something. I'm sure I'll be using it again. Thanks Agent XXX.

I think either one would be great. I want to try both, lol!

".....can't wait to see what LFM will do to him." You GO, girl, lol!

Hi, Maroon: Just found your post....I know whatcha mean about having your pic taken.....I HATE it, lol, but I bet the photo shoot goes awesome for you if you do it. Once I figure out how to upload pics/post I will post a couple of my girl....I have to down Google Chrome to do that and I don't use/like Google. Occo Ambrosia sounds wonderful.....My OCCO White/Pink/Blue are coming this week, but BV sent me some OCCO Blue that I got yesterday. I'm thinking that maybe the OCCO Pink would also work under CP, but definitely will have to try out the Ambrosia.

Welcome girlfriday.....You're in good company.

.

A Scorpio Full Moon coming soon and the coyotes are howling as I type this. Sounds about right for LFN, eh? Maroon, did you get yours yet and have you tried it? I have this in Unbridled. Taking me some getting used to, but I like it.

Lol. Timing was good for me as it will tide me over til my big LPMP order arrives. Plus I got Agent XXX on the way from StacyK. He he. Starting to feel like Christmas. Didn't get shipping notice yet but Mara was awesome and checked for me yesterday and said it would be going out today. Keeping my fingers crossed for both of us.

Just received sample of Tickle Tickle with Gotcha as one of the extras BV sent me from over at the trading post (Thanks BV). Haven't tried it yet, but will soon.

Just got a sample of this today from amongst the wonderful xtras BV sent me on the Trading Post (many thanks, BV) and I agree, NuTrix, it's very different. While wet, I initially got Balsam/Redwood and then immediately Almond/Pear which remained upon drydown. Then the Raspberry came a bit forward, but it somehow melts back together with a nice creaminess. It's nice! I put this on tonite around dinner time and the family seems quite mellow/helpful, perhaps owing to the Mother's Little Helper....Not familiar with this phero yet, so need to testdrive it a tad more, but so far it seems to lend a calming, yet focused feeling.

Thanks, Coming Up Roses! I'll get the hang of it yet!

Yes, they are awesome. I'm still new and learning how/what to order and it's amazing how John/Mara/Halo keep track of everybody's stuff. Thanks you guys.

Yes, they are super busy for sure, but Mara was kind enough to check on my order(s) and mine's going out 2maro! Yippee!!

HA! Actually, that would be my two 4WD Dodge Ram trucks (one with a plow) a big red dumptruck, a horse trailer, an ATV, two motorcycles and my beloved 2004 S-Type Silver Jaguar (which I plan on driving while wearing Suzy Q's Snow Leopard over UNCougar and some OCCO White (if my order ever gets here) LOL!

Thanks, ComingUpRoses! I still don't know how to do response quotes, but at least I have an Avi now (thanks to Mara/Heather), he he.

Hahaha

Mara, could I order a bottle of Snow Leopard please? Thanks.

Ah geez, now I want one. Could you please put me down for 1 bottle of snow leopard, Mara? Im hopeless, lol. Seriously, how could anyone resist this after reading Lady V 's review?
