  1. Clean, calm, floral but not in a fluttery daisy or 'white' kind of way, you could wear this pretty much anywhere, a good everyday kind of scent. I'd be interested to sniff this on the boy...I think he'd like it.

  2. No, they are not the same but I had not tested moon of falling leaves, somehow having missed it yesterday when I did the testing and wrote my notes, however, I have retested on skin now and applied moon too, and now I have something else to smell with leaves, for a split second I had pineapple in the pumpkin one, then it was gone. They smell totally different so maybe I am just super sensitive to something in this that makes me think leaves!

     

    I would hope not to have put anyone off trying this, I am clearly a rogue case! No mistakes have been made!!

  3. Thanks for the advice. I may have to decant and mix with some dpg as perfumer's alcohol is apparently unavailable in the UK, or wait and order some at a later date from here. It does puzzle me as I have slathered on the Cougar Potion scented oil before, maybe the spray hits more? I don't know. Re my ex, he's a total passive aggressive commitmentphobe and a jerk so it may well have affected him 'positively', which is why he was more of a jerk, he doesn't want to feel attracted to me, and he hates anyone else wanting me too. ANYTHING I wear that has a sexual vibe makes him hostile, well more hostile. If I look dreadful and ill, he's horrible, if I look sexy, he's horrible, if i look run of the mill and in fairly good health he's about okay..

     

    I certainly don't want the boy to have further problems so I may just give it a miss around him. On one spray, the handsome Italian waiters at the cafe were hanging around outside grinning at me as I walked past, the chip-shop man gave my children lollies, I felt great, and I got home and looked in the mirror, and boy did i look like shit! My fringe looked really greasy, and messed up. Not quite the goddess I was channeling ha ha

  4. Not really what I would describe as spicy either! It smells like leaves, much actually, like another scent I had which I forget the name of from LP, and also like some other autumn leaf scents from another company. It's very strange indeed. I can't smell them in the vial since I checked now, or on me, so I think it is not a skin issue. It's not bad, it's just kinda off the wall compared to what everyone else says!

  5. I thought I would love this, sadly I don't.In the vial, minty lemony white floral. I love gardenia, I love mint. Something goes up to screech level in this on the white floral vibe, granted mint does it's best to hide it, but it's there, shrieking in the garden, ruining the party like a spoilt girl in a pretty dress who needs to be taken home..

    edit for repeat.repeat.haha

  6. I hate licorice scents (love the sweet, which is weird I know) but I received this by mistake, so here goes... It smells like chocolate covered licorice. It's not so awful. I was absolutely repulsed by white licorice so this is nowhere near as strong. It also faded very fast. So I wouldn't wear it, but then I wasn't expecting to.

  7. Well, I wore this for the boy's sleep over the other night. I had applied one spray earlier in the day which seemed to be having a fairly positive reaction from people I met (bar my ex who got downright nasty with me but he could tell I was getting ready to see someone so that could be why), but then I applied a second spray for the boy's arrival and he knew I had it so he asked to sniff it right away...

     

    I asked if it made him feel any differently and he said no. Cut to half an hour later and not only do I feel totally nauseous(which may have been unrelated but) I can barely keep my eyes open, and let's just say it was having a disastrous effect on him too.

     

    Could too much cougar cause male issues? Or sleepiness? He also said he was insanely tired for the time of evening and eventually suggested we just go to sleep. I slept terribly, but that could've been the fact I wasn't sleeping alone/sharing a bed with him for the first night.

     

    Oh yeah, the scent. It's kind of sweetly powder-y. It's in the same kind of vein as Jovan black musk although not so berryish, possibly Chantilly Black Lace also.

  8. I love this scent. LOVE IT. LOVE IT. I like this about as much as I like Perfect Match. These musk's are perfection on me. I have been sniffing my hand all day. Would there be any chance of getting this in an non-pheromone version too? I'd like this to wear A LOT, but I don't want to do the phero thing all the time. It was my kid's party today and I had onw of the mother's come over and speak briefly to me, and I told her pretty much right off I had to very quickly ring my sister, but then after we'd been speaking standing fairly close for a second she just started in on this huge story about moving house and schools and all that stuff, which was really nice, but I think I phero'd her as it was like she couldn't stop talking and she said she'd had a really really late night, so I felt kind of bad for messing with her mind!

     

    The scent is yum though. I also told the parents of my kid's school friend a totally dumb and not really that relevant story about my boy mistaking an ice cream van's music for my phone ringing, I'm blaming that on tmi too! I did manage not to mention that we were naked...see...TMI...it's clearly still working on me

  9. I only tested a teeny dot of this as I wasn't sure what phero was in it, but it was really reminded me of another blend, which I can't remember, not Dream Lover for sure. I liked it though. I think perhaps it had something in common to my nose with Haloes Angelique although they are not the same. Wow helpful review huh.

     

    In the spirit of being more helpful, I'm happy to mail out chocolate oranges from 'blighty' lol, ooh and for that matter I have Dream Lover if anyone wants to swap with me. I'll come back and update when i can make more sense!

  10. This smells like a butter scented version of bicarb based candy, here in the UK we have Love Hearts, this smells like Love Hearts, a hint of butter and some fizzy lemonade, as in Sprite, not real lemon-y type lemonade. I expected to loathe this, but it was kinda okay. Not something I'd wear but okay. I should point out I received the wrong sampler pack, I didn't expect to like this even a smidge.

  11. I can't help wondering if MY vial of this is wrongly labelled. It smells strongly like a dried leaves type scent? Nothing pumpkin or pineapple or tropical. It's a bit like an autumn candle (minus any smoke elements some have), but not the foody autumnal kind. This may be a totally screwy skin thing, or it's the wrong 'juice'.

  12. Well, for some reason I would never buy a banana scent, maybe in case it smelt like those foam banana sweets, but I got this as a mix up so I have had a tiny test and colour me surprised, I like it. It is indeed a banoffee pie flavoured coffee, maybe more banana-toffee filling and no pie but that's fine with me. Not sure the current boy would go for me in this but on a winter morning taking the kids to school i may just give this a day out :D

  13. I wore this for my date last night for some reason thinking it had supersexy in it... I love the scent, really love it. I didn't know it was listed as having leather either as that would've put me off totally, anyway...the effects. I put a fairly liberal (for me) amount on) I felt a bit dizzy and slightly nauseated. Did I feel stunning...not really. My date said how pretty I looked but then I also had way more make up on than normal. I felt a bit self conscious and not that happy. My date wasn't literally sniffing me like the day I had on Dolce Far Niente. I also had a moment where I think I kind of blanked out for a moment...don't think I would wear it again. Shame as the smell is delicious.

  14. Smells like clean fresh pineapple in the vial, unfortunately it's a combo of fabric softener and all-purpose cleaner on my skin.

     

     

    You and I must have similar skin, although I thought it was dryer sheets, but not my fave dryer sheets unfortunately.
