OK, so what are we all ordering/considering?
hedgehog replied to Dolly's topic in New Release Chat and Info
@Vixy mixy š®! In the best way possible. We need pictures, haha. Enjoy your collection! I bet there are lots of old and "new" favorites in there. You have plenty of time to use them, and as long as they bring you joy, that's what matters. -
This is really lovely. Very balanced: the juicy sweetness of the papaya, the creamy coconut and sandalwood, and the magnolia in the foreground. I donāt always love water accords (especially in commercial perfumes, where it goes straight to my sinuses), but Maraās aquatic notes are always well blended into the scent and part of the overall āstoryā as opposed to being a jack in the box that punches me in the nose. This is a lazy afternoon in a tropical garden. Maybe itās the creaminess, but thereās something a little gracefully languid about it. Iām imagining a woman in one of those massive summer hats and chic sunglasses lounging with an icy drink.

Realized I never reviewed this. This smells like an oatmeal raisin cookie without the raisins. Its not fluffy like a cake, definitely fresh baked oatmeal raisin cookies! Itās one of those cookies that are chewy and buttery and melt in your mouth in a pool of spiced sweetness. Itās not quite as creamy and a little different, but I think if you like CrĆØme Cake, you would like this too.

@citrineI also picked up a bottle of Odalisque virgin! The most delicious sounding scents always come with BI and Bang! š Iām glad I was able to snag a virgin one so I can slather withoutā¦unintended consequences, haha. I realized that I prefer having phero enhanced scents to UNs - simpler and less stuff to carry! So I have some Luxurious, Liebchen, Yazmina, PCMP, and my trusty Sensual Harmony coming. And some TVs and Threebies. Now my wishlist is cleared outā¦until PEs come out! -
Your Potion Ideas for Sale Private Editions!
hedgehog replied to luna65's topic in SPECIALS for Forum Members!
Ooh, this sounds good. I love a good creamy sexy AF vanilla, and LPMP's vanilla drydown is incredible. I don't know what that super creamy buttery vanilla note is in the drydown of LP Pink/Fraise Citron, but it's so good that I sometimes surreptitiously sniff my cleavage, haha. I feel like my "scent education" hasn't progressed far enough where I feel ready to make a PE (still haven't figured out musk, resins, or the less instantly recognizable flowers like orchid, orange blossom, etc) but I'm looking forward to everyone else's creations! -

Definitely picking up some PCMP and probably Odalisque too - can't decide whether to get pheroed or virgin. Everything else, I'll figure out when the time comes, haha. -
My bottle of Oleander got a bit overlooked until now - Iām always jumping between certain scents I get periodically obsessed with so sometimes bottles get forgotten! This is very light and neutral - I donāt know if Iām noseblind to something or if itās just really light and unobtrusive. This could easily be mistaken for soap or just a general natural ācleanā vibe. Not the more in-your-face laundry kind of clean, but more subtle and natural, like clean air. You could 100% get away with this even in workplaces that discourage perfume. This and Gossamer Threads are the ultimate āstealth pheroā scents for me. They donāt feel like perfume at all, but the scent still leaves the desired impression. In this case: clean, fresh, and pleasant.

This is definitely a masculine leaning scent. But something about it just feels so cool and fresh, like the refreshing feeling after a shower when you're all clean and the water evaporating off your skin keeps you nice and cool. I don't know if I could pull it off in public, but I like wearing it at home on hot days while drinking ice water. I'm always astonished by the range of "musk" smells. How can musk be the masculine, cologney musk in LP#9 AND the soft, vanilla-y fuzzy musk in Gossamer Threads AND the silky, humid musk of Lady Victoria's Sweet Little Pussycat AND the clean, woody musk of Ebil-ish??? I know different musks are different molecules, but when I see "musk" I never know what to expect!

New Releases: Pherotine Collection 2023!
hedgehog replied to Potion Master's topic in New Release Chat and Info
Gorgeous labels and I love the concept and quote. We need that energy right now! Looking forward to reading the descriptions and notes! -
SWS for sure! I think LFM is fantastic once you're settled in a role and is great for some specific people, but SWS can't be beat for all-purpose professionalism and networking, especially in large groups. My policy is to start with SWS, then later switching in to LFM for one-on-ones or smaller group meetings with the team, depending on how they respond.

Finally got around to testing this. I tend to have issues with travel shock, so I think I put this away to avoid temptation and just now came across it again! This is definitely reminiscent of Warm and Toasty, but somehow even Warmer and Toastier! I think the cinnamon helps gives that feeling of extra toastiness. It's sooo buttery - I love how mouthwateringly delicious LP's foodie notes are. I can practically taste it!
-
Maybe Gotcha has more beta-nol?
-
Yes, that's it! Or if you're lazy like me and dont' want to decant the fragrance out, you can just wait until you use up 1/3.
-
I wanted to love this one, the notes seem right up my alley, but this one screams MAPLE SYRUP on me. Maybe I need to revisit this...
-
You can always phero-enhance your own scents too-- just pry the roller off the top of a normal scent and add in about 2/3 of a pherotine, and pop the roller back on - tada!

BUSTED!
hedgehog replied to Artemis's topic in General questions, advice and comments about pheromones
Yep, there are articles and studies saying otherwise, but I see proof that pheros work every day! And the fact that your man guessed it exactly is pretty amazing. Almost like he knew on a subconscious level. -
@Vika Oh no, hope the phero girl accident wasn't too bad! Good point though ... I keep my copped scents in another section of my "collection' to avoid any....incidents.

I wear LP Red everywhere, lol. But I tend to have to a more unapproachable vibe (just the way I walk and carry myself, I think?) so I don't get any inappropriate responses, just occasionally people who follow me like ducklings or hover in my vicinity. I think a lot of the LPs are really versatile when it comes to pheros! I think Perfect Match and Leather would be fine, as long as they're congruent with what YOU feel when you smell LP Red. I actually am the opposite of Vika - I like mixing them pheros in a fragrance or getting the phero enhanced scents. To me it's a lot easier to keep track of (one bottle instead of 2!) and its' easier to keep track of how much of the phero you're wearing. The scent is also a good reminder of what phero you have on and when it might be time to reapply. Overall: UN pheros is best for flexibility, phero-enhanced is best for simplicity. I do keep some Pherotines of my favorite pheros, but I find that I almost always reach for my phero-enhanced scents.

@Vika I think we like the same scents! I got a bottle of this in the sale too, and I think I saw that you liked Sensual Harmony? You might like Gogo too if you havenāt already tried it! I get a sweet, clean musk vibe from it even though I donāt think musk is a note. This is such a versatile scent-sweet but clean, perfect for both summer and winter. Some of my favorite LPs are the ones that are foodie but still are perfumey, if that makes sense. This is a great example- definitely caramel, but no one is asking me where the caramels are.

@RosesArePink It's not just you - Gotcha is like a gravitational field for men! They will magically just place themselves in your vicinity. During the height of Covid, when everyone was wearing a mask and distancing, I had to go to a library to use a computer for conferencing because my home internet was having some issues. I sat in the very back of the library, far, far away from everyone else, so I wouldn't bother anyone. A guy literally came all the way across the library, past dozens of computers, to sit right next to me. I don't think you could even see me from the entrance! I don't think he ever spoke to me, so it's not like he consciously came over to talk to me. But it's like he subconsciously wandered over to me. Mind control! š

Yay! So glad you had a better experience the second time! I will say that LFM can make me a little sad in a detached, alienated way if I'm worn down and it's during certain times of month. So maybe that could be what was happening as well? But the other 99% of the time it's AMAZING.

Me too - they shipped out so fast! Special thanks to Kimi to making sure it was shipped to the right address!
