  1. Thanks Tink! I edited bc I wasn't sure that part made much sense (that I had expressed correctly), but that was my thought at the time. I'm also in a 'healing' phase. Let me know what you find out, definitely interested! As much as this scent-wise does not work for me, I'm going to keep at least 1 FB bc I felt it was comforting scent for me. Did you notice any feeling when wearing?
  2. From bottle and wet on skin, get the cherry slurpee note others noted. Agree with others that on dry-down, loses the sweet slurpiness and pure cherry comes thru. I haven't had opportunity to layer with a lot yet, but have layered with a few things and brings exactly what I'd expect: a sweet cherry note. This isn't piercy or stabby, but also not 'rounded' as it's a bright cherry on me. I agree with Dolly in that after a bit it does 'mature' and is less bright, more dimensional. Stays as a true cherry though, doesn't morph out of that.
  3. I agree Rose and Tink, wonder what other scent could maybe 'calm down' the sandalwood? I love it as an incense, and love the magickal properties of it (along with all notes in this) - just wondering if there could be a scent or essential oil to 'calm' it or make it 'play nice' to make it more rounded.
  4. I agree Tink. I'm really hoping that I can find a way to tame this bc I like the intent of the notes. But the sandalwood almost smelled like it was burned, or at least slightly toasted.
  5. Xev, am I so glad you're in this forum. You definitely have so much great knowlege (echoing others here). You always do your research and provide such great info. Good thread!!
  6. I didn't see notes in thread, so pasted below - directly copied from LP description on ArtFire: VIOLET ~ Love, faithfulness, modesty; calming, balancing, healing, protection, draws luck & fortune, lust. PAPAYA ~ Love, protection. Health of body and mind, clarity. Magnification of devotion. PASSION FRUIT ~ Friendship, love. TANGERINE ~ Strong 'magnet' to attract men; eternal love, marriage, fruitfulness, thoughtfulness, happiness, tribute. SUGAR ~ Attracts love, luck, sweetness and riches. Lust inducing. VANILLA ~ Aphrodisiac, inspires happiness, playfulness, sexual arousal, lust, vitalizing. CHOCOLATE ~ Lightens emotions, evokes feelings of love. VETIVER ~ Enhances perception of beauty. Love, sensuality, money, luck, hex-breaking. Ok, with notes posted. Here is review. I got a FB because of the notes, having no idea how it would play on my skin given varying reviews. But I was attracted to notes and intent. Decided to test tonight (for scent) and "pleasant surprise" keeps coming to mind as part of the description. At first, it is a fruity 'blast'. But after about 10 to 20 min dry-down the notes blend together wonderfully. It's a mood and confidence booster too, w/out any pheros. Intent only as noted in thread. I'm a foodie scent girl, and for me this is not a floral scent. The violet is present and other notes mix together nicely. As a top note, I sniff a "true chocolate" on my skin but it doesn't overtake the other notes. This is complex, beautiful, strong and subtle at the same time. I am not describing it well but liken it to when movies are called 'sleepers' - i.e. something that for whatever reason may have been overlooked prior, but when tried, discover it's something great. Of course only if you like the notes.
  7. I think pinning the tutorials and warnings and some other knowledgeable threads is great idea so that all have ample access to the info, notice and awareness..
  8. Everyone stopped guessing already?? I already can't wait to try them all - and for sure 2 have FBs written all over them for me - esp the one @ beauty and sleep, budget willing with the phero samples I want to try.... LP is improving my budgeting skills. @Luna - thanks for heads up on Celebutante, I had no idea but had heard @ it on threads. Does anyone know how the UN samples are usually sold - i.e. is it like the sugar layerable dealio - certain amt for each sample size but bonus if order a certain #? Or is it difft each year?
  9. So I scored some vamp cabernet during sale. And (again) going against my own 'rule' of wearing 3x prior to posting review. But here it is anyway - tested this last night. Wet on skin - overpowering dark feeling, heavy on the resin Dry down - first few huffs, did not like at all. Then it started growing on me. I didn't 'get' the cherry like others. My skin amped the honey and screamed out the sandalwood like a madwoman. Resinous sandalwood on me. No wine notes came thru either. That said, there's also something comforting @ scent, but not sure I could wear around others bc the way my skin morphs this. I love the honey in this one, stays true and does not go powdery but my skin latches unto the sandalwood in major way. Will prob put a FB up for swap though as have 2. I want to play with this more to see if I can blend w/ something else to tame it. In interim, will enjoy on occassion as like the comfy/ cozy feeling it gives. This could def be a good dark/ sexy for someone who can pull that off or who doesn't amp smokey resinous sandalwood. ETA: Just wanted to add, when I say my skin amped the sandalwood, I mean in most major amp my skin has ever done. Smokey resinous dark sandalwood amp. I def can't wear around others.
  10. Thanks Dolly - sorry if that came across as reactive - work people have been all snippy/snappy on my ass lately so feel like I'm always apologizing for random s* just bc some ppl (actually just 1 person) are a*holes. They need to get a grip. I'd give them some LPs to lighten their moods, but not sharing my LP loves with the likes of them.
  11. I'm with StacyK - more guesses- this is fun. I wonder if coquette is Blatant invitation instead of what I thought prior?? Where is BANG - will there be BANG scented?? Will Audacious or Celebutante (spelling?) be making re-appearances? How much will it cost to get all samples in spray - or is that even possible. Holy cow, just hope I can figure out how to budget once they are available. (goes to stare at my pretty LP bottles and samples, finally understanding the thread references to 'my precioussss') ETA: corrected some minor grammar stuff (technical/ professional term)
  12. Oh, this could be fun Game... wish I knew how to link to the pics... I agree with MDC though, think you nailed it. The DOM one I think is DOM but could be LFN bc of Noire Living Doll -- oh that is hard, maybe LACE also agree with LFM but felt like LACE could be more doll-like. Coquette - agree SS4W but perhaps LFN, also Cougar.... hmmmm So fun to think about.
  13. Good info, have played with that a bit myself but not enough. Not sure why when I love them both a lot. I think everyone says not all blends give selfies to everyone or it's harder to find sweet spot w/ certain ones for some ppl. I'd recommend trying again, I love Topper a lot. But I'm also having problems finding sweet spot with LACE, which I know you love. So interesting how chemistry is so difft. I have gotten hits from Lace for sure, but no selfies. I am determined to find sweet spot with that one though. Or if not, will wear for the hits.
  14. Totally agree - sorry I thought that's what the thread was about - i.e. any combos that people found were good for them or they had info on. I wouldnt necessarily have thought of those on my own, eventually yes / maybe - but thought it was cool that ppl shared their favorite layerings. Even the simple ones.
  15. So the 2 I saw recently in threads and want to try SOON are: 1. OCCO Pink (or Ambrosia) under UNCougar/Cougar Potion with Topper on top. Maroon and OBW posted this information. I can't wait to try this one. 2. Any LAM, UnLevitation, and Topper. Found in thread, I think Judy O mentioned this combo along with others. Lots of ANOL -- wooooot
  16. I've also copied 2 'formulas' from threads into a word document where I'm gathering phero and other info. But not sure if I should post bc they aren't mine. I'd give credit of course but wouldn't want anyone to be upset or anything. I'm looking for other mixes and results too, so will also check out that thread. Tis that time of season - phero madness/ happiness. And my 1st glimpse of it! SQUEEE
  17. Awesome news - gives more time for LP and budget planning.
  18. Holy amazing! Labels and names amazing! I can't wait to try them all. New phero too!! Let the madness/ happiness begin.
  19. Thanks Donsie and QG!! For now, I'm obsessed, keeping eyes out for pheromas.
  20. Yay - QG, yes I was trying to show my 'stealthiness' - ala ninja.
  21. Wow, guess I am post-arama woman on this thread as I was so excited @ it. I'd edit above post but thought this could need a bump w pheromas coming around. And thread won't bump when you edit I think. So... If you can get both, get both. They are difft. Love them. For selfies both are uplifting. Around others (limited testing) def friendly responses, no rock star responses but just started test driving. And haven't tried some of the combos in the Topper thread (heehee, WILL try though). Just started test driving both of these in past couple of weeks. I think Topper is a stronger mood booster and while DHEAS is a lighter one, a tad bit more 'sparkly'. Both are freakin' awesome. For practical purposes, if you want to take break from ANOL then DHEAS can be go-to. Or if you have other blends that have ANOL, then you can have DHEAS. But if you're using another type of phero (congruent with ANOL) or non-scented phero, you can 'top' with 'TOPPER' for extra boosters. With pheromas soooo close, I'd def recommend trying both. I have FB of DHEAS (finally) and decant ot Topper - totally love both, want to always have both. ETA: I just re-read this post and started laughing. I think I had just sprayed 5x with Topper. I should read and edits prior to saving my posts, but leaving as is for a laugh. Post is hyper but I wasn't feeling hyper, just feeling GOOD.
  22. ETA: Just saw this, I sooo have to try this formula now! I got happy just thinking @ that combo. Anyone try this combo and/or Maroon's mix (Cougar plus OCCO plus topper)? If so, did you use UnCougar or Reg Cougar or both (hee)? Want stories. Also curious @ other 'mad scientist' mixes in general. So much to play with, but in general says topper can be used with all pheros (except for maybe calming ones as noted in thread by Luna and Halo).
  23. Started test driving recently, haven't had opp to test on others yet, will soon. But OVER THE MOON with this one - love love it. Selfies right from first spray. I just gof a few decants in sprays, the rest of my UNs are RB oils. So I spritzed myself like 5 times before I realized I might be phero-bombing myself. Anyhow, adore it for selfies alone. Def must always have this one. Love DHEAS too, it's just a difft mix and the ANOL in this lifted my mood (booster) along with the DHEAS. ADORE. Will post back when have interesting stories. Good happy sauce. Also felt uplifted. Getting my UNs in sprays could be dangerous for me. ETA: tried to amend my 1st post w/ the info below but somehow eneded up w/ 2 posts - sorry all.
