This is another one that I'm always like, 'why don't I wear this more'? I think it goes along with my hoarding my own LPs from myself.... anyhow glad to see others are loving it. Topper really is a great topper - and I feel it lightens my mood, perhaps my aura. (?) All in a positive way. It has kind of a sweet scent to it, in the UN even, which def subsides on dry down.

Welcome OceanDreams!! I have cougar in scented and in UN. Both are great, but lately I've been drawn more to the scented as I think I get more selfies and hits from the scented. It's such an amazing blend, wore it last night and today - actually, and made me realize I should wear it more often.

I've noticed that when this ages, it's warmer, less tart, and less 'berry like'. It's a really smoother pink scent. So for those who may think the berries are too upfront, this info may help. I also feel like sample sizes age quicker, bc it's a smaller batch to mellow out. It covers cops really well, have had a couple of bottles boosted with EOW, and though I can smell the EOW when it's wet, that scent goes away after it dries down.

Hi, I'm not sure how much more to add here; only to echo what others have said. My personal results have varied between the Uns and the scented. I just posted in a separate thread about titration (though I sucked at Chemistry, it's a lesson I learned well in labs); that just a smidge over can change results; just as a smidge under. And all of our body chemistries are different from both each other; and even on ourselves on different days. I can share my personal experience: UnLeather: I don't have it in scented and usually only wear for motivation and/or workouts; so wear the Un with great results. Cougar: I prefer the scented (bc OMG smells awesome and I feel it ups the selfies) and haven't found my sweet spot with the UN, but I still wear the UN LFN: I only have like 1 scented; so I wear the UN and 'self scent' with some LPs; great selfies and hits Topper: Same selfies and hits with scented and Un (the un has a scent for me; but admit I wear this as a topper, so usually always wearing with some scent). NOCO vs. OCCO: I prefer the OCCOs unless I am mixing a NOCO with a phero (which I've done only once with knowing my sweet spot with the Un) Popularity Potion: I only have this in the Un. And my sweet spot here is very small, too much and I feel anxious, but just the right amount and, gorgeous. Enjoy the fun and the journey! My personal recommend is to test every phero at home 1st, but I almost always experience selfies while others don't, so again, to echo others, YMMV.

Hi Blackcat!This is such a morpher right? But in such a good way each time! I haven't work it around others bc I tend to slather this one, but I agree it's amazing.

I have this scented with totem bat and unscented; and I was / kinda still am very much conservative with pheros. That said, just my personal experience, is LFN is the sh*it. With anything if you overdo it, you may feel like a 'weirdo' or whatever; but start off with what makes you feel comfortable. I like to test pheros by myself first, so I can also test how they make me feel, regardless of hits. One of my favorite reviews (themes) on the sister/ cousin phero of LFM has to do with sharing experiences of feeling like a carpet swan. Which, for me, I didn't get it at all; until I did a swipe too much of LFM. The scented pheros are great bc they are more 'goof proof'. And LFN was easier for me to hit my sweet spot vs. LFM. I did overdo it once and flipped my own bitch switch. Anyhow, I understand wanting to be cautious (I have been and always am), but LFN gives such great confidence (and can motivate you to clean). Have fun testing and consider testing at home and working your way up, noting your sweet spot. I sucked at Chemistry classes; but always remember the premise of titration - that a drop over or under could change results. That's not a scary thing, sharing bc it's something I think of when it comes to pheros. They do work, it's a matter of personal chemistry and balance with that. And also- have fun with it some.

I am soo trying hard to be 'good' ... adding Nox to my list though. I love Teddy BB for sleeping (don't use it very often) as I don't want to burn out on it, but looking forward to trying this based on reviews and of course, notes notes notes.

Hi Rose, have you thought of a spell potion to diffuse the negative feelings? You're obviously more knowledgeable and gifted in that area, and I know you asked about pheros, but my mind immediately went to a spell potion. Like hex deflection or perhaps quarrel mender? Or even harmonious self (so that her behavior doesn't dig into you or whatever) I understand we can't change people, and I also understand that sometimes even if a friend acts like a 'frenemy' there is an underlying friendship with value. If I have any other ideas, will post.

Yikes, sorry to hear Dolly, read the post ; hope things get better for you soon!!

I've been ok with Teddy BB for that tom; but anything with EST like Lumina or LFM can make me weepy. LFN can trigger my bitch switch, but that can happen with me and LFN regardless of cycle. I have noticed to be more careful around my tom with LFN though bc my 'sweet spot' is so much smaller. I haven't noticed any diff with any other pheros, but I also haven't really been tracking them each time.

Isn't it though? I was literally slapping myself for not wearing this like ALL the time - wth? It's so indulgent, gorgeous, yet also fun and flirty. I haven't layered OCCO white with OCCO pink yet, but I'm sure it would be amazing. I don't have a FB, only maybe 1 or 2 samples,so it's moved to the top of my list now.

OMG, I'm trying soo hard to be 'good' but if it's better than the sugared egyptian musk (which reminds me of skin musk and has major phero properties); will have to figure out how to try this new one... thanks Dolly! Did you start your soap yet? I've been away from the forum for awhile, so may have missed any soap updates.

Oooh is this like the one you compared to the good vintage skin musk (but way better than that even)? I have a FB spray of egyptian musk and love it; this must be vunderbar.

A week or so ago, I wanted to wear OCCO white, so I reached for my sample; swiped myself with the wand and swooned over the scent. Quite soon I noticed it had more of a sweet scent to it; so I actually checked the label and it was OCCO pink. OMG - what is wrong that I don't wear OCCO pink more often? I should be slathering myself, daily. I love OCCO white too, but OCCO pink has more sweetness and a sugary warmth to it. OCCO white also has a warmth to it, but maybe not as bright and perky (is that the right word to use?) Anyhooooo - for anyone wondering about the OCCOs these 2 are so wonderful, and I'm happy they are part of the permanent collection. And that they are available in handy samples so I can take them with me in my 'on the go LP kit'. Because you never know when you might need a dab of OCCO. ETA: stoopid grammar

I went FB on this last year, I love it so much I hoard from myself since it's sold out and I have just the 1 FB. All of that said, it has been my only venture into the CB phero - which for whatever reason I thought wouldn't 'work' for me. I have a whole new appreciation for CB - perhaps another reason I hoard this since it my only scent (or unscent) with CB. I havent tested much/ if any around others, but good selfies - uplifting and yes, cuddly. But not too cuddy - like lazy cuddly. A good balance for sure.

Love the labels and sooo want to try some of this, will have to restrain myself. Can't wait to see all of the notes!

Swooning over everything - the labels, the new additions to permanent collection, the yummy drink ideas. Total SWOON.

I'm somehow in love with this. And I just checked- selling out fast unless the inventory isn't updated. If you want this, you'll want to get it now. I'm head over heels... and this is not a pink scent, but omg - in love. ETA: like others have said, cannot smell cops at all. I dont have any reactions from others as havve only worn solo, but happily (not) surprised how wonderful this is. ETA: I think this stuff also helps me sleep , like almost every single time it knocks me out. This is a good thing bc I've been wound up and it's hard to relax. So I don't think it would have that effect unless I *needed* it to or whatever. Also on drydown - the magickal 'poofie goodness' is appley (but not spikey or candied) and what must be the dragonsblood.

Adding journals to my list, though not sure which one yet. All so pretty!

ooh - what? grab bags and OCCO SLF -- where have I been???

I'm not sure Im getting the medicinal either, but will try this again this weekend probably. I like this one a lot, not able to detect many notes - the sweeter side seems to pop at first for a few seconds, dries down quickly into some poofie magickal mixture of wonder. I like this one and want to test more..... or MOAAARRREE.

I really like this one. I get the fruit - kind of a mini blast of it, then it rounds out. It's not overly sweet, it's tart like others have noted. It seems to have less staying power for me than usual scents, but still love it. And it does cover cops - for those who might wonder. I'm enjoying the heck out of this one. ETA: and I think I've fallen in love with the label too.

Thanks Dolly - when I can, will HAVE to try this when I can. Skin Musk has been one of the best musks ever, and have felt similar effects with the sugared egyptian musk. And you're right - to find the 'original' of the skin musk is either time consuming and/ or over priced. Is this also a skin scent or does it have throw - or both? Odd question maybe, but the original BB Skin Musk seemed to have both.

Hi KrazyKat, I noticed you said your skin is dry - is it possible that your skin is absorbing everything prior to 'blooming'? Was just thinking this as I read through the posts -- have you tried ongoing (daily) moisturizing to hydrate the skin so the scent will 'sit on top' more? I love Eggers method!!

Sounds gorgeous. How close is this to Sugared Egyptian Musk and the (gasp) spray Skin Musk? I read above, but wasn't quite sure. Huge fan of both, and for some reason the original Bonne Bell Skin Musk (spray) has always resonated and worked well for me. Of course I had to spray a lot, but had phero effects - selfies and hits.
