    Welcome to the forum!! We have a great bunch of people on here! Any questions you might have...they can answer!! The sampler is fantastic...there are a wide variety of perfumes (scents) and also phero (combos)....the trading post is a wonderful place to find samples for less and I would recommend getting all that you can to give you a better idea of how notes combine to form the different perfumes! Keep an open mind...some that I thought I would love from the notes...I like and others that I knew I wouldn't care for..I love!! Best wishes as you begin your journey!!
  2. Welcome to the Forum!! Please forgive me for being late....this is a fantastic group of people on here who are willing and having the knowledge to help in any way!! I am fairly new so the words of wisdom I will give to you are to have an open mind about different notes and perfumes that you would normally not go for. Some of the ones I thought I would love...I like...and some of the ones I thought I would not like...I love!! Best wishes on your new endeavor!!
  3. I was relieved in the end I did not win because I would have had to give up a lot of things I was planning on ordering...yes, I am loving the trading post!!! I bought a lot! Managed to get an X Appeal, some sold out phero enhanced fragrances, as well as some that were on my list of fragrances I wanted! Goddesslynne also had an UN Drop Your Guard...I was very happy to get that! I don't like auctions either..I have a hard time waiting on things, especially these perfumes!! lol Recieved my parcel today and I am in love with both New and LP White!!
  4. It went for 406.99! Up until the last few minutes it was at 315.00...I stepped away to answer the phone and when I got back it was over and the winning bid was 406.99!! I'm going to start looking at the trade boards more now. Heather got me set up for it today. If all goes ok, goddesslynne has a Backstage Pass w/PP 3/4 full bottle for sale and I'm getting that. Yes....for sure I will be stalking!!!
  5. LOLOL...reading your post you sound exactly like me! At least now I know I'm not the only one driving them nuts.. I try so hard to wait on orders to come before placing another, but then something I want gets moved to Artfire and bam-another order! I must have 30-40 sheets of paper in front of my computer with my wishlist and want list and need list, revised at least 100 times. Now my collection is getting big enough that I have a few things to choose from. I just got my shipping notice-woohooo!!!!!!! I have been a little down about not winning the ebay collection, but this makes up for it!!! Can't wait to try it all!!!! Thanks LoveStruck55...I'm excited for me too!
  6. I haven't gotten a shipping notice yet.. It should be any day now, though I hope!! I also got a Blush from Artfire and X Appeal invoiced the same day so maybe that put me back further in the line. It is sheer torture waiting for orders to come..lol...did you do a review yet of the LP White? how did it differ from what you were expecting? I'm glad your daughter liked it!! I live with my parents right now and my mom and I are always "going shopping" in each other's creams, perfumes, clothes, etc..
  7. I tried to go back and edit to include your quote and I couldn't do it...I will have to check out Tobacco Berry. I was so afraid of missing out on La Sylphide...placed my order very quickly..I also got an All Hallows Eve Virgin..gonna have it boosted. I got the last All Hallows Eve w/Lumina back in March and I love it!! I wanted to have a backup.. Congrats on scoring a La Sylphide, Olderbutwiser!!
  8. I invested in two!! There were only 3 left before I placed my order so only 1 left now..if any! I am so happy this came back for me to snatch up..the notes sound wonderful and I have heard great things about LFM!!
  9. Thanks for letting us know ComingUpRoses!! It was on my list to get before and I waited too long and missed it! Happy, Happy Happy now!!! I hate to place another order before my current order ships...it is due to be sent out any day..but I don't want to miss this again!
  10. I keep keep keep checking my emails for that message...Cataluna has sent you a package!! Olderbutwiser and cchristys, enjoy your new goodies!!! Hopefully mine will be shipped soon since it was placed on the 9th. Can't wait to know how my Love Potion White smells....grrrrrr, this is torture!!! lolol
  11. I have been on this site so much I have it almost memorized!! lol If I had put this much effort into my studies I would have graduated from college with a 4.0! My apartment needs cleaning, the laundry needs washing..meanwhile I am on this computer reading about pheromones and checking lists to see if anything has disappeared or been added. I have commercial perfumes out the ying yang and still I can't get enough of Mara's...I keep smelling my arms when I have one on..they are like addictive. What I love most is the fact that they don't contain all of those chemicals. I'm so wanting to live more naturally and get away from all of that stuff. I can't wait either to see what LP White is like..the notes sound fabulous! I really need to try some more of my samples so I can write reviews..I am stuck on Gypsum White and wear it constantly (I am a creature of habit). That will be my goal this week..to try at least 3 new and write a review of them...
  12. This is one of my favorites! I can't stop wearing it long enough to test or wear anything else..lol I finished my sampler and stuck a swab down in and scraped it so I would have it to smell until my order arrived (I know I'm nuts!) and I have already used half of my bottle since Monday...there is something in it which I can't get enough of and I don't know what it is because from everything I have read...it all seems to combine very nicely with nothing majorly standing out! If I knew what contributed to its wet smell I would get a PE with that in it....I am not familiar with some of the notes...does anyone else know if there is one or more notes which are standing out when wet? One of the florals perhaps?
  13. I got one of the two bottles yesterday...I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw it...and then thought about it and was going to get the other one....there was still one left a little after 11am...I emailed Mara because I wanted to see if X Appeal was still available too so she could invoice me...and when I checked again after sending it...it was gone! lol I am happy that you were able to get one Olderbutwiser...I felt a little guilty about taking both of them because I know so many of us love it and it has been sold out. I can't wait to try it!! I am no longer going to wait...I feel bad about making a 30.00 purchase, but I have already lost several things by waiting until I'm able to place a bigger order. Everyone else knows so much about layering fragrances and what pheros to use...I hope the day will come when I actually feel knowledgeable about all of this..lol
  14. Welcome to the forum! I am sorry that you are having to go through this...from the posts it seems like several of us have gone through the same thing. I am fairly new, so I wouldn't want to recommend anything, just to tell you that these ladies/men on the forum have a great deal of knowledge and are very caring people. I have been in my personal hell with my ex and escaped it 5 years ago...life is so much more wonderful when they are not in it! Mine sucked the life out of me too and I am just now getting my mojo back...it is hard while you're going through it, but the reward of freedom makes it so worth it!! I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers and send some positive vibes your way!!

    hello

    Welcome to the forum!! The Spring sets are fabulous...on my list for my next order and I can't wait to get them!! ....I am a newbie so my order Monday was for the women's and men's sampler...I am loving the Sneaky Clean, X Appeal (which disappeared before I could snag one...I'm so upset about this!!) and my sniffie of Spells 2013 Love Immortal..I haven't even tried them all yet so I'm sure there are more..I really love the Ambrosial Summer and Love Salad Mara boosted for me...everything is just so fantabulous!!!
  16. OMG! I have been without cable, home phone and internet for a week and the world has gone mad! lol Three perfumes I have been stalking are now gone! Now I will have to regroup and replan my next order! Mara...sorry for the delay in thanking you for my order which arrived Monday! What a wonderful surprise to get everything in this order...I thought I was going to have to wait for my most recent! My perfumes you boosted smell delicious..and so do my goodies! I loved the two extra special ones! Both are actually on my list of top ten sold outs to watch for in case they showed up again somewhere (yes, I frequent the sold outs like a true LPnatic! ) bravo!! All of my little sacks/boxes were so beautiful with their perfumes that I hated to open them and mess them up...from the bottom of my heart I thank you!!! My only complaint...now I am going to have to place another order to have something new to look forward to!! lolol You're a great businesswoman...you know us well!!!! I feel like Al Pacino in the Godfather 3 when he says..."just when I think I'm out...they pull me back in"....that is so me..just when I think I will be content...I get my order and begin wanting more...and more...and more!!!! I really missed the boards this past week...thank God it's all working again!
  17. This one sounds fantabulous! I have been wanting a perfume with PP and I missed my chance to get Sweet Chic on Artfire by one day (I kept watching it for weeks and it sold the night before I placed my order so I got a FB of Totem Lamb right away! I can't wait to to know how it smells and also to test out PP my next outing!!
  18. When I found LPMP I was looking primarily for relationship pheros to use with my fiance. However, I ran across Un-Levitation and it sounded like something that would benefit me greatly. Un-Levitation is a formula of Open Windows with some DHEAS thrown in to give you that little extra boost of happy! Mind you I am a very skeptical person, so although I was hoping for it to work as the despription says, I was doubting that pheros could actually lift one's mood and help a person socially. I can tell you now, without doubt, that it works!! It works so well that even my mom and dad are now using it too!! Due to my RA I am home most days so I tend to get down. Not being able to use my hands leaves me with few activities I am able to do to help out. Un-Levitation definitely has lifted my spirits and put a spring back in my step!! Everyone in the house seems to get along better, talking more with each other and smiling!! I would 100% recommend un-Levitation if you are looking for something to help you get your "mojo" back and feel uplifted and happy...in fact, I would recommend any of LPMP's products as I have tried several now and they are all outstanding!!
  19. yea, I found that out the hard way! lol I got my DHEAS in a spray so I just do one small squirt on my neck of it. Thanks for letting me know Stacy..any info is appreciated as I am new to all of this...
  20. thanks for answering... ...and thank you for putting my two answers in one post...I tried to do it, but I'm not computer savy and I was creating a mess..lol I feel like a big goof for answering my own questions...next time I will search a little more before asking..anyway, I appreciate your help Halo...
  21. I also was debating between those two on my first order. I went with the DHEAS. I felt like it would be more versatile with the other phero combos and also because I ordered an un-Levitation. I can't compare the two, but I can tell you I love my DHEAS! It gives that little something extra to the un-Levitation. In fact everyone in the house is now on Levitation w/DHEAS and I must say it's great!! Our moods have picked up..we are a lot more happy and have the motivation to get things done. We argue less...Sorry to get off topic...anyway-DHEAS lives up to its word for me!!
  22. I am planning some PEs in the near future and while searching for info on notes for fragrances I came across this page...it lists all of the different categories of notes, what falls under them and it allows you to click on the name beside of each note pic for more in depth info....I bookmarked it and found it extremely helpful, especially for newbies like me... http://www.fragrantica.com/notes I do have four questions about PEs....1) Is there any way to add a 5th fragrance note if we are willing to pay extra? 2) If we order two PEs together and want them boosted, is it possible to split the boost between the two? 3) Is Lumina available for a boost? It is on some lists and not on others. 4) I had read on the forum about a phero blend called Focus Potion. Is this available? I had some questions above about PEs and while searching through the forum I found some answers, so instead of deleting the questions for which I found answers, I decided to post the answer here in case others wanted to know the same... 1) Is there any way to add a 5th fragrance note if we are willing to pay extra? Found the answer to another one of my questions... 4) I had read on the forum about a phero blend called Focus Potion. Is this available?
  23. Well, I placed my second order today! Spent an hour putting things in and taking things out and changing things around trying to get everything I wanted without breaking the bank! lol Still didn't get everything I wanted..some things will have to wait, but I'm happy with the end result.... 2 Gypsum White (one roll on and one spray)...I absolutely love this! I have almost used up my sample. Wore it for Easter dinner w/the whole family and everyone was commenting how good I smelled and they were all over me with kindness and smiles!! Women's and Men's Newbie Sampler Gamboge with Levitation (roll on) X Appeal w/Sexology sample (I wanted a fb of this, but it wasn't in my budget, so at least I have a little that I can use until next order) Crayon Sampler Set (I only ordered the 3 with pheromones my 1st order. I came to LPMP only looking for pheros and fragrances with them, but after smelling all of the great samples I got, I am now falling in love with it all so I had to get a full set...plus they come in that great crayon box I saw!! ) Plus...thanks to missdarlyncherie, I am getting a whole lotta samples from my list of "want to try"!!!!! Oh, Happy Day!! ************************** My next order I am already looking at X Appeal w/Sexology fb, Sneaky Clean fb, Flying Potion (hope it's still available!), and our fabulous Spring Collection for April and May...who can resist all of those cutie animal pics? and I'm sure the fragrances that go with each of them are fantastic!! I'd love to do a couple of PEs when I'm more familiar with notes of fragrances...I love clean, light scents so the idea of some spa scents with ginger, white tea, white flowers and citrus intrigues me!! We will see how that develops!! Now I just have to find a way to pay for all of this!!!! lolol
  24. hey! Yes, NRs are up! Hooray! I forgot to give my forum name to her so just replied to her with it. Will you email me or do I email you....Im so excited and thanks again...I will return your good deed in some way....
  25. Vladmyra...I am so sorry I am just responding to your post. I did not realize it until today when I was thinking about a PE for myself and trying to decide which pheros to use. When I read your post it was as if you were describing me!! I have AS (Asperger's Syndrome) and although I don't seem uncomfortable in social situations (because I have learned to act), they are actually very draining for me! I am more content staying home and it doesn't bother me to do it for days on end when I'm not working. I could tell you about how AS affects me, but you did it so well that there would me nothing more for me to say!! lol If this is what Lumina does for you, then Thank God I have found the Holy Grail! I received my AHE and tried it sparingly for the scent. I like the scent, but it's not one I would use every day-especially in the summer. I guess the name AHE is a very clue as to when this fragrance should be used! I am thinking about a PE with a little more subtle smell. It would probably seem on the generic side to most, but I have to be careful with fragrances which are out there. Everything smells strongly to me and if it has something I have an aversion to, I can pick it up right away and I can't stand to be near it. So far the fragrances I have tried at LPMP have been great, but I am still looking for that one scent I can use daily as a staple. It really means a lot to me that you took the time to write all of that. I didn't find out until a few days ago about following posts to get updates. When I read your post I was thinking you might have AS too. I don't always tell people about it because some react negatively as if I have cooties.. lol When I have my PE done I will let you know and hopefully they might make a few extras and you can try one. I need to do some more reading on it and decide which ingredients so it may be a month or two before it's done. Right now I'm looking towards NR!!! So excited!!
