I am so happy you like it! Was worried when you didn't post! -
OK, so what are we all ordering/considering?

PINK ELF. . ..total gingerbread -
I wish I had gotten more than one bottle of this in the sale! This is so delicious! Right off the bat, it is pink, pink, pink but a tiny bit artificial smelling. Then, like Tyvey said, it is chewy but I get chewy gingerbread with almost a molasses base. Spicy, sweet and thick. After an hour, it toned down a lot and I get the spicy gingerbread, but that thickness has gone away along with most of the pink. I thought this would be really, really long wearing as strong as it was initially, but it seems to have burned off pretty quickly. I love scents like this for the fall. It reminds me of Philosophy's cinnamon bun shower gel from way back, not in the sense of being cinnamon smelling, but in the way that a foodie scent can be sexy and sophisticated vs. something for a young girl. This is the kind of scent I would wear just for me, but as I walked through the grocery store, heads will turn because its that distinct and noticeable. It's way to heavy for the 100 degree heat outside, but this is going to be amazing when the weather turns and I'm dreaming of hot cider again. WINNER! Makes me want to spend a lot more money on the sale to get another bottle of this!!!!

I got this as part of the sale and BOY! DO I LOVE THIS! Initially, I get bright fruit. I can't identify one fruit but more of a melange of the passion fruit, apricot and papaya with papaya being the strongest. Right under fruit is the powder spiciness of carnation with ginger. .. I love carnation's inherent spiciness but when it is coupled with ginger and nutmeg, it pretty much eclipses anything else. Nutmeg is right there, front and center. I want to think I can smell a bit of coffee, but I think the combo of woods like cedar, cypress and woody spices like nutmeg are more up front. It's really very sophisticated and mature. Very very different from many of the LPs I've picked up previously. It's very fall-like and crisp and grown up. Makes me want to walk around my office with stilettos and a pointer, wearing a pencil skirt with a perfectly coordinated blazer and a perfect french twist, whole calmly saying "you, run a report on this. . you, I need a chart that shows this. . and you, come here and pour me a martini." I wanted a scent that exuded authority and benevolent power. This may be it! ETA: At about an hour, it morphed again into a powdery spicy carnation with a definite green middle note. . powder on top, green on the periphery, and the spices under all of that. Very lovely and sophisticated and well blended.

Mark's Girl Nip 2014 w/ Perfect Match
johnsonlisa90012 replied to Beccah's topic in Men's Pheromone Fragrance Reviews
THIS JUST MOVED TO ETSY!!!! OH NO. . .It may be almost gone! I snagged an extra bottle. It's my fav on a man. -
I always go back to this. After I have played with all the other scents and combos and pheros...I come back to UNE. It's my holy grail. When I wear it, I smell deep, sexy honeycomb. . .not candy sweet but like you'd find in at a beekeepers. The amber is there, but its such a soft end note. I don't get much else because its absolutely perfect exactly the way it is. And when I wear it, I just feel exactly the me I was supposed to be. That's the best thing about this one for me.

Can you explain what a success potion is supposed to do? I got myself into a mess and not sure if I should use protection or success products?

I feel sporty and playful in this... all girl but willing to hit a few golf balls with the boys. For those times I want to hang out and be one of the guys without my scent shouting "I am a floral cupcake fairy girly girl" ... but there is no mistaking its a feminine scent. So I am thinking a work phero or treasured hearts. -
Oh Lord, this is amazing. I am not a foodie lover but this is so dense and delicious. So dense it is like Une in vanilla. Sweet and spicy. I am getting a second bottle and only wearing it when I want every single person I know to love me up in a single file line because this is the kind of smell that makes everyone want to give you bear hugs. This is goddess worthy.

Update: Drydown of about an hour or so turns into a nice warm vanilla sandalwood where spice goes back into base. Comforting like wearing your boyfriends fuzzy sweatshirt. I was initially concerned about all the spice but it mellowed into a whisper. Smelled different in the vial than on my skin, though both were lovely. I got a ton of compliments tonight! Compared against La Sylphide and LS is much drier smelling. This is juicier and sweeter and spicier initially. I want to let it rest. -

I don't. Sorry Tyvey! Sandalwood keeps this from being really foodie. I think this is potpourri ish today but we will see what it morphs into after settling. I hope vanilla comes back to the fore -

OCCO: Ambrosia w/ EOW cops
johnsonlisa90012 replied to LadyVictoria's topic in Women's Pheromones & Phero Fragrance Reviews
I love this. Was trying to decide if I liked this OCCO Ambrosia or the new Ambrosia of Eros best and I really think the syrupy fruit plus chocolate in this is mind blowing. Can anyone help me figure out a phero to boost with this? I'm thinking of splitting a boost between this and sensual harmony. Any suggestions? -
Just got this in the mail and I know it has to settle. Initially, I get vanilla frosting with spice, maybe nutmeg. Really soft sandalwood in the background. After about 10 minutes, the spice came to the forefront (definitely clove, maybe nutmeg). Mara, what is the spice? I feel like a mulled vanilla chai latte! YUM!

I got this in the mail today. I'm waiting to test it fully and will NOT report on it until you get yours. So excited!

Cutie Pie, I can't wait to see how this smells. I am tempted to buy another bottle now because it's a success potion. What exactly does that mean and how are you envisioning using it?
