I looove this scent, and it fits in with my current pumpkin marshmallow lifestyle. Thing is, there just aren't enough hours in the day, so I'm wearing this TO BED. I mean, I'm alone, so really just for sleeping. But I think it will be a good test to see what it smells like in the am. I'm thinking about adding in some EoW, and don't want to overshoot the mark. Could I add just 2 drops to a bottle? Or maybe 4? I know most people prob do 6-10, but I haven't been subtle about much lately, and I wouldn't have to worry I was overdoing it. Just curious. Any thoughts? What is the smallest amount one might add in to a good cover like Wicked, or something more sheer? Edit: I added cops as follows: 1) I filled an 8ml purse atomizer with 1/3 Wicked oil, 2 small drops EoW, and filled the rest with perfumer's alcohol 2) I added 6 small drops EoW to the rest of the Wicked oil bottle. I'm not a mathmetician, but I'd say that works out to be about 11 drops if it were a full bottle oil. I say small drops because I used a glass ml measuring dropper, not a pipette, which I believe would've been harder to control. I'm very happy with how it turned out. I like the effect of the cops in the alcohol, even though wide dispersal isn't my goal, it seemed to dry down a bit quicker.

I didn't, I've got him Mark's Girl Nip, Open Arms, and Bad Boy, and FB's ofTeddy Man 2 and Winner are coming his week, plus Year One and 1969 samples. Also Gargoyle Gargle coming from a trade. He's so picky, and there are so many to choose from: if he doesn't like something he gives sample back to me immediately, but he's kept River and Rain. I'll see what he puts on first when he gets home from his trip. I'd order it for him if he wants, I'd be happy to decant myself a wee bit.

You and Trey!

I'm considering taking 10ml of my BBM and mixing it with 20ml of perfumer's alcohol to make a small spray. I made one the other day with some Valoute Lavande and I'm very please with the result, and the bottle happens to fit in the same allotted slot in my giant wooden rollerball storage box! Other than being careful to spray real close and below neck and maybe below boobs, and letting it dry before getting dressed, is there any reason my future time traveling self would suddenly run into the room yelling "No! Don't do it!" and knock the bottle out of my hand?

Yesterday I was giving Boo Berry another run, and it smells divine at the 2-3 hr mark. I decided that I needed BBM on top of it from the gate and then it would smell perfect, just morphing a bit throughout the day. Now, I'm not an organized person and everything I own that I require on a daily basis has bluetooth trackers, but I know exactly where my BBM is supposed to be. And she wasn't there! And I actually said, outloud, "Beth? Where are you Beth?" So, um, yeah. BBM shall be served with most everything. And I did find her! Oh, I'm bumping this thread. Hasn't been touched in a while. I want to hear more Deer in the Headlights reactions!

I'm glad I have all these review to read. I've been doing great with putting on some Howl, Balm Bomb and Beautiful Dreamer on alternate nights, thought I'd give this little sniffle of NOX a try. Medicinal berries - yup. With that edge of headache feeling. But I'm going to wait it out and see how it smells in the am. I also like knowing that resins last longer in perfumes than the berries will, since I love amber and the like so very much. Hope it knocks me out!

Thanks Halo! Been trying to figure out what effects solo androstadienone would create. Someone gave me one, was it you or Bella? I thought I'd remember everything but of course i don't.

Stacy this is really useful info!

I love this! I keep huffing my arm. Thanks Stacy! It reminds me of something I used to wear when I was younger. And I don't mean younger like last week when I wore FP 2016, or two months ago when I sampled FP 2017, like back in 88 or 89 when I switched from YSL Opium to more natural any mysterious oils. Maybe the combo of the ylang ylang plus the grapefruit make it more floral and softly incense-y. It's like a younger more innocent ylang ylang than the ylang ylang's I use today? I got it for the heavy grapefruit reviews, but it's more subtle than I expected, maybe the marshmallow and licorice mellowed together over time to make this more of a powdery sweet Flying Potion? The scent I had on earlier was heavy in the nutmeg dept on me so the spice in this just seems perfect and more subtle. I can't really divide the notes so good in my mind because together they just create a scent memory. Like a "playing with runes or tarot cards in my room and not having a car or a telephone" feeling. Super glad I got this! Levitation is perfect for the feeling of it on me.

Luna, you're right! And I'm getting him a bottle, too, with reservations since he's not exactly high strung to begin with. From now on I'm just going to call Teddy BB "the knock out drops" so I keep it in proper perspective.

I am still a little gun shy regarding some "red" fruits, so the raspberry in this made me a bit nervous. Both apple and fig have sent me back into the shower, and sometimes I read notes I don't like as fruit, even if they're not. Like leather, for instance, it overwhelms me when it's still wet and my brain interprets it as cherry. Pineapple, coconut, apricot, and all the citrus fruits work for me. I've been enjoying the benefits of Balm Bomb, but decided to spritz on a bit of Howl before putting my kids to bed. They loved it! They were all over me. "Momma, give me another kiss! Momma I want to hug you again!" And then they got extra excited, "Momma smells like fruit! Momma smells like chocolate! Momma smells like fruit AND chocolate!" They really really loved it. My son prefers lavender based scents, anything that isn't lavender based is "just okay" to him, and she generally smells like a ginger cupcake with vanilla cream cheese icing, they are not new to the world of scent. And they were both crazy abut me in Howl. They made me stay in their room while they were drifting off to sleep, and here's the crazy part - THEY WENT TO SLEEP! With no fussing! I haven't yet figured out my best sleepy time scent, but Howl is definitely my putting-the-kids-to-bed top choice!

Cheesy, this sealed the deal for me. Poison was my jam back in '86! Has anyone put this on their man or smelled it on one? Any of you guys worn this?

I am ordering a trial of this for my man. He likes Liquid Shadow, but only after the chocolate dies down. I'm hoping that it's similar to Liquid Shadow without the coffee and cocoa. (Luna am I aiming in the right direction here?) There are too many scrumptious LP's to settle for one that isn't quite right. I'm noticing that he took his Open Arms to visit with his family for a week but left both bottles of Girl Nip behind. He's back to Decent Man status. Not Very Good Man yet though, he did not hang that shelf I asked him to hang before he left!

I was just sniffing around in my man's samples and came across Dark Desires and decided I was ordering him a bottle immediately. Sigh. Rebrew potential?

Lots of good info on here! Read http://lovepotion.invisionzone.com/index.php?showtopic=8852&hl= And this http://lovepotion.invisionzone.com/index.php?showtopic=557 And this http://lovepotion.invisionzone.com/index.php?showtopic=689 If Dolly writes anything in all caps, just do what she says. Tinker belle also gave me some great tips in the "what are we ordering/considering thread." Have fun and DON'T MIX YOUR PHERO's! Mods: I don't know why I'm quoting myself. Feel free to fix if you want.

I was born in 69, my parents were going to name me "Daughter of Love." Thankfully only my middle name is love.

"lot culture." You must be a head, who else would say "lot culture?" The reason I came onto this thread is because I believe this one is sold out? My man just text me from work, "Winner is a winner." Never mind, found it! Sometimes I have more luck googling than searching here or in store.

All good news! Maybe I'll take Gotcha for a spin later tonight.

I'm glad I made you ladies laugh. It's been a tense week with three varieties of drama. Life can be so rediculous that laughter really is the best medicine.

I am sure that they will love you and want to take care of you. Sounds like a potential hotbed of chivalry. Men who work hard physically almost always appreciate someone else working hard. My man did make a point of taking out the trash and starting a load of laundry before going to work. And when I visited him at his work he had so much Girl Nip on I kind of forgot what a bad man he had proven himself to be earlier. And then he kicked the other guy working sound out of the desk area and plugged me into the sound board so all was forgotten. I did buy a shelf today, though. Pretty sure he'll put it up.

But what did Mr. Perfect think?

Thank you Luna!

I was just trying to decide what to wear after my shower, teaching at 6 then meeting my man after. It will be Balm Bomb for teaching then BBM in the car. So glad this forum exists! I actually came on here looking for ideas for tonight, good thing my own good idea was on here already or it would've never occurred to me.

I was lucky enough to get a FB of this from NU. I almost want to ask why should would let this leave her house, but I'm guessing it's because she must be a VERY GOOD PERSON. I think of anything called Fuzzy Wizzy should have peach, so I'm glad I researched all notes. Lavender is always welcome in my home because when my son was still nursing, I would wear it, so now it instantly makes him happy. He's 11 and doesn't know why he loves it so much, but sometimes asks for me to put it on him and recently asked for his own bottle. But obviously I didn't choose this for him, just saying lavender is a winner on its own around here. After putting it on today (travel shock be dammed,) I decided that any man who doesn't fall for this combo must be a very bad man. Not just a too-lazy-to-put-up-a-shelf kind of bad man, but a VERY BAD MAN. Like you'd better have AAA because the man who doesn't love this will not come to get you when you have a flat tire kind of bad. Maybe even the kind of guy who gets fired for embezzlement or has a whole 'nother family somewhere bad. When I had my man smell me, he said "it's okay." That was confusing. So 1/2 hr later, I went back. "It's good, it's just not my favorite." Huh? I thought he was a good man. I told him that if he didn't like it, it meant he was a VERY BAD MAN. He tried to defend himself. "I've seen you smell better. What is that? Amber?" I just stared at him. "I guess I'm a bad man" I need to rethink this relationship.

I wish this was working for me but there are some sweet scents that when mixed with my natural skin oils add a suspicious "cat pee" scent. Aja mixed with peach or nectarine has done this on me. Now, I'm not getting that here, but it's like cat pee potential, or cat pee twice removed. Too many nice-girl flowers and I can't smell the tea, it's been two hours. I think it's just my body reminding me that I'm not really that nice, this scent is for nice girls, god bless them. I will keep searching for a scent with Mega Watt that will work for me. More and more, I think I just need all phero's unscented and then I can just smell however lucious I want on any given day.
