  1. Hey welcome! It is great to see you here. I have a feeling you will really enjoy the scents here. (I hear the Tonka Tobacum is incredible smelling! )
  2. I can't wait to read how this one works! If I hadn't just made up my own phero blend I'd give this one a try. Hopefully I'll still get the chance.
  3. Alriiiiiight! That is very good to know! I know that it smells incredible on a woman. I have a friend who'd borrowed this and even though the relationship is entirely platonic I was following her around because the EIC smelled so good on her.
  4. 'Traditional with a wink and an evil little grin.' Oh yeah, that describes this! Un always reminds me (in spirit anyway) of Old Spice or one of those 'old' aftershaves. I like Un quite a bit but this one just reminds me for some reason of of straight razors and knickerbockers. I guess I'd call it retro but in a different way from Un. I know, goofy but as long as it smells good...
  5. This is a bit overdue but I've been busy. I was warned. This really is some powerful stuff. I blasted myself with about 5 sprays of Evil In Carnation (hair and shirt) and let it dry down about 5 minutes before entering the meeting. It is held at a coffee shop type place where you can get coffee, pastries, sandwiches and such. I walk in and I'm standing in line. Two women in front of me (probably mid 40's) keep looking back and smiling. Then they strike up a conversation. About the weather, my coat, my glasses, etc. Pretty much anything they could. They didn't want to stop talking to order. So I get up to the counter and the girl behind the counter DIHL'd me. (I'd forgotten this was boosted with Wanted Man). Brought my drink around the counter instead of handing it to me. (???) Leaned in when she gave me my lemonade and told me to have a great night (I think she was trying to smell me.) The meeting itself was chaos. We are in a room that is only about 12'-16' or so. My Carnation/phero cloud filled the room and everyone was talking over everyone else, everyone was making me the center of attention, I got two invites to dinner (seriously!) It was wild. Just total pandemonium which is actually uncommon for this group. There is normally much more focus and direction. I didn't mind all the attention, however. Oh and for the record, I did get 3 specific complements on my cologne. None of the women thought they could wear it when I asked. They all thought it was too masculine. Another friend of mine thought it was fantastic and did wear it so I do believe it is a true unisex scent. I do have a certain woman that I'm hoping will find me irresistable when wearing this (the impetus for me buying it in the first place) and if what I've seen is any indication I think Evil in Carnation will be just the ticket to opening a door to getting to know her better. I have to mention, I didn't think about it the first time I'd worn it but especially after this dried down (yes, bathing in it made the scent last considerably longer- a good thing) I was reminded of a barbershop circa 1900 or so. Not that I'd know what that smelled like (at least not from this incarnation) but I just 'remembered' the smell as if it was from an aftershave or something from that time. Anyone know if Carnations were used in something like aftershave or cologne from that era? Just curious because it struck me as being odd (but good). I liked this one right out of the gate but it has grown on me even more (and not just because of the reactions I've gotten) because it smells fantastic!
  6. Glad you like it as much as I do! I still find it amazing how different the reactions I get between men and women are when wearing this. I love it and a certain woman I am getting to know better also loves it so that is the important thing to me. Mara and Danna are geniuses at getting my rough idea and turning it into something so much more than I could have hoped for.
  7. I'd thought about just getting a regular oil based bottle of this and putting a bit into the spray version. The scent of the spray is plenty strong at first but fades quickly so I am going to try it a few times and see what I think before doing anything else yet. It does smell very good. Gonna wear it tonight to a meeting where I'm surrounded by women (unfortunately most are married) to see what kinds of reactions I get.
  8. I'll give that a try. My only concern is the androstenone buildup that can occur on clothes and hair (even after washing). I ran into that problem while wearing Ammo from AD until I stopped putting it on clothes. If nothing else, I know from experience that adding a bit of DPG will make it last longer. Thanks!
  9. Well, I got my Evil In Carnation back today. She decided that she loved the scent but it just doesn't last for her. I noticed that as well. It is the beta spray (100%) alcohol boosted with Wanted Man and it doesn't seem to last more than an hour or two on either of us. I will probably put some unscented DPG in this to see if it improves the wear time.
  10. I actually really like it. The scent is very unique but I think (and my friend agreed) that it is a true unisex scent. I LOVE the carnation and how it combined with the tobacco. I felt very upbeat and outgoing when I was wearing this. I have worn pheros before and know how the 'Wanted Man' blend affects me from wearing Sorcerer. My mood was really the work of the scent more than the phero blend. I can still smell the carnation but the black spices have come out more (it has been about 5 hours since applying).
  11. you warned me. My friend smelled this on me and she now has my bottle! Even knowing that it was boosted with 'Wanted Man'. She didn't care, she just wanted to wear it. I guess that is a compliment.

    Just got a sample vial of this (saw it under the men's section and the ingredients sounded interesting) and I put a couple of swipes onto my index finger to judge the scent. Now, I believe that a guy could get away with wearing this for a night out (I don't think it'd be work appropriate). I wanted to make sure that was posted so if any guys are curious who read the review. I do think that a guy could wear this. Having said that, if I smelled this on a woman I'd follow her to the ends of the earth. Yeah, I like it that much. The next serious relationship I have, I am going to be giving this as a gift in the hopes she'd wear it. In the name of science, I'll try wearing this but I think I'll be too busy smelling myself to notice anyone elses reactions.
  13. Okay, I was lucky enough to pick up 2 of the 5ml bottles of this one on sale. I say lucky enough because wow, this is dangerous (a literal qoute from a woman I know). I got this today and had to give it a try. I really have to believe that the name scared people away. On me, the sandalwood REALLY comes out strongly for about the first hour. Then I get mostly green for the next 2 hours or so with the sandalwood taking a supporting role. Then the sandalwood comes back and the tobacco starts to come out. This is a very balanced, very masculine scent. I decided to roll on a little to each side of my neck and a bit to the tops of my hands and rubbed it around. Then I went to see if my usual test subjects gave it a thumbs up or thumbs down. I went over to the receptionist in my office building and before I could say anything but hello I heard, 'ohmygodisthatyou?' My scent trail caught up with me and she caught wind of my scent. 'Uh, good or bad?' Loved her response, 'Bad, I have a boyfriend.' This led to a conversation about how 'Maniac' made her think of being totally ravished and wanting to be ravaged. She was totally jealous because her boyfriend won't even try anything but Aqua Di Gio and I always smell great. She always talks about having a boyfriend yet WOW can she flirt with me (especially when I smell good). I've never bothered to try and take things further than flirting, however. During the conversation one of the other tenants came over and and told me my cologne was dangerous. She flat out told me never to wear it to the office complex again. I was supposed to save it for when I was on a 3rd date. Huh? (Yeah, when I am not phero'd up or if I'm not rocking some great cologne, these women aren't nearly so forward.) The scent this stuff just reminds me of a suave, powerful man with absolutely no redeeming qualities who is only interested in having his way with a woman. In spirit this reminds me of Boddice Ripper's darker twin. Very nice and Very masculine but not exactly appropriate for daytime. Bring on the night.
  14. I'd gotten a sniffie of this one and decided to try it out a few days ago so this review is overdue (sorry!) On me the mahogany really comes out and smells very masculine yet happy and not too serious. It sounds odd but to me this is a very happy, upbeat scent. I went about my day and every once in a while I'd catch a wiff of this and think, 'wow, what smells so good?' Then I'd remember that it was me. The scent kept sneaking up on me. I'd forget I had it on and I'd catch a sniff. Put me in a good mood all day. By the end of the day I'd classified this in my mind as a masculine yet flirty kind of scent. Appropriate for daytime but still fun for nighttime. Thumbs up!

    Thanks! Uh, so how do we go about this? (new at the whole process)
  17. I used to work in an industrial environment and the guys I worked with always reminded me of 8th grade boys stuck in adult bodies. The mentality was unbelievable. Thankfully, I've moved on from there so now I can wear/smell however I choose.

    That would be awesome! What would you want for it?
  19. Alriiiiiight! That's good to know. I can't wait for it to get here so I can try it out!

    Is this one ever coming back? Speaking as someone 'in the business' This sounds perfect just for its magical intent.
  23. Hehehe, If I hadn't just bought something entirely inappropriate (Evil in Carnation) I'd already be saving up to by another one or six of this one. I can't believe how much I like it.
  24. This has pretty much become my daily scent since I've gotten this. Oh sure, I've cheated by wearing something else but I have gotten so many consistent compliments from this (not to mention the fact that I love the scent) that I just can't stop wearing it. I love how the vanilla stays with this one throughout but after a few hours the tobacco and tonka really step forward. Today I was talking with the receptionist in my office building. I turn to leave and as I am walking away I hear her tell the woman next to her, 'Oh he smells so good.' The other woman replied, 'Uh, huh!' WOOHOO!
