  1. Welcome! Be careful that you don't end up like me-- I vowed only to make one purchase a month, but then decided buying from forum members "didn't count" and am afraid to look at my bank account.

    Soiled Dove

    Haha, resurrecting this thread! When I first applied this, it was a blast of tobacco and booze so strong it made my eyes water. After a while, the honey comes through. It's nice-- on me, sometimes honey scents come through as kind of fake and powdery, but with the tobacco it stays warm and sweet. I can definitely get the "rubbed up against a cowboy" vibe from it. It's really fun! I don't know if I've ever smelled a perfume that conjured up a theme as well as this one.
  3. Flower city! I don't know enough about flowers to say which are currently delighting my nose, but it is uplifting, feminine, and definitely nice on a day like today, when Michigan decided to nullify the past week of lovely weather with more snow.
  4. Just when I think I might catch up someday and have all the LPs I want.... Curses! They look absolutely lovely-- can't wait to read about them!
  5. Excellent, thanks! I'll just tell her to hang onto them for... a year or so?
  6. I've been building up quite a stash of LPs for my friend who will be visiting later this month (next weekend, in fact), since she seemed intrigued by the idea of pheromones but doesn't have much money to spare. In a couple months she'll be moving back up here for good, but that really has nothing to do with this question so I'm not sure why I'm mentioning it. Anyway, she just messaged me last night and told me that she just found out she was a month pregnant! This blew me away-- she's been having problems with her cycle and stuff all her life, and her sisters have had a lot of trouble getting pregnant as well. Also unrelated. Not sure why I'm rambling so much.. Um, so, is it safe to use pheromones while pregnant? Or should I tell her to hold off until she's given birth? I don't think there's anything dangerous about pheros, but pregnant women have to take a lot more precautions, so I thought I'd ask the experts.
  7. Oh my goodness I must have a bottle. Get here sooner, April!
  8. Actually, I may be the only one to agree with Pony! I was surprised to smell something kind of lemony, as it was not in the description-- "SweetTart" fits much better than anything I could have come up with. I do like it, though. Maybe it'll change on drydown, but if not, it's still nice.
  9. I really like this one! My boyfriend said he was iffy about it because it smells too much 'like perfume,' but I don't agree. The dill really comes out, as people have been saying, and there is a minty undertone, and hours after application, it's a delightful vanilla scent. A keeper for sure!
  10. I just may have to! But the list of things to buy is getting ever longer. Eek! I was thinking that a few months down the line, I might get Thief of Hearts amped with Treasured Hearts. Either that or G2... But I think it might be too spicy for G2. If that makes sense.
  11. On me, this smells kind of like an herbal soap, with an undertone of more mainstream perfuminess... It is comforting, but I get the feeling that my boyfriend wouldn't like it. Or maybe he would-- for some reason, this seems kind of masculine to me the more it dries down. Like an aftershave or cologne, maybe? I think it must be the basil and woods that do it. The drydown really mellows it out, but I still may have to amp another perfume with Treasured Hearts instead.
  12. On me, this scent is very floral. I think there's a hint of lemongrass in the back after drydown, but it's still definitely mostly flowers. It's a very spring-like, clean scent. I can see why it would be described as innocent.

    Thief of Hearts

    In fact, I think I like this one so much that I'm going to get a full bottle! I think I might like to amp it with a pheromone blend, but I can't really think of one that is congruent with the spicy, fruity scent... Any suggestions?
  14. It's strange-- I've tried LP Red and LP Pink, and could tell that they were related. This one, however, seems like a different sort of creature to my untrained nose. At first application, it's a light, shimmery, floral scent with some sort of aquatic note to it. It definitely smells like fresh growth, new beginnings. It's lovely. And the silver flakes are really fun! The fruit peeks out after a few minutes to join the party. It's an intriguing scent for sure. Edit: Well, the boyfriend has deemed this one too perfumey, so into my friend's present it goes!

    Thief of Hearts

    Delicious! When I first put Thief on, it was a watermelon explosion, like the BubbleYum I sometimes ate as a kid. But very quickly, it turned into a spicy, woodsy (but still sweet and with fruit in the background) scent instead.
  16. At first, this is all chocolate on me. After an hour or so, the roses come through, with a hint of the chocolate in the background adding sweetness. The amber lingers the longest on my skin. Beautiful!
  17. When I first put this on, I was worried, because there was kind of a... I'm not sure how to describe it... a sharp, almost chemical scent? It was like cotton candy gone bad. Might that be the pink sugar? Now, after a few minutes, it's softened a lot. There's some apricot peeking through, and the pink has mellowed and just become a soft blanket of sweetness and cotton candy over the amber vanilla base. Lovely!
  18. I really like this one! Very berry-scented, to the point where I don't get much else. I haven't noticed any effects from the Leather so far, but I'm thinking this one might have to be a bottle purchase.
  19. XD I guess you're right! I might have to. For science, you know. That's really interesting! I've heard such good things about Leather that I kind of thought it was a magic potion! I might still try it, but before that I'll go with my gut instinct and get a perfume laced with some Lace.
  20. I actually got this for a friend of mine (I'm making a nice LP sampler for when she visits me later this month), but couldn't resist trying it out first. I like it a lot more than I thought I would! On me, it's a soft, floral, plant-y smell, with a musky/powdery background. And surprisingly, my boyfriend liked it, too! He said, "It doesn't smell like perfume." I've been trying to stick to food-y scents to keep him happy, so this was a nice discovery. Now I have a dilemma: do I give it to my friend, or keep it for myself? :3 I'll probably give it to her-- I fear the Dominance pheros might clash with my not-dominant personality. Is that how it works? Or would it make timid old me a bit more assertive?
  21. Oh my! I did read a sticky-note post on the Androtics board (I didn't stay there for too long... I didn't care for the format) that mentioned work done by a Dolly, and I wondered if that was you... I am very late, but I'm sorry about what they did to you-- that's awful! Very helpful indeed! Thank you! I do prefer the LP method of being up-front about the intended effects of blends, but from what I can see, I prefer a lot about LP.
  22. Oh, okay, sorry-- I just noticed that a few LPs had Androtics blends in them, so I assumed... Thanks for the info! LOL, oopsie! Sorry to offend-- just something else to go in the file that shows that I have no idea what I'm talking about. Care to fill me in on the details of the feud? I know which side of the line I'm on already, but it sounds like it might be entertaining, or at least informative. (And sorry about your monitor!)
  23. Ohhhh, I didn't realize it was intentional! Haha, okay. I'd appreciate any help! I just got a bunch of enhanced LPs from SWBookworm-- so here are all of the Androtics pheros I have on hand: MX283 P74 with P83 P83 MX287 I believe that's it at the moment, but it seems like LP and Androtics have a relationship, so anything anyone could tell me would be helpful. <3

    Loco en La Luna

    Well, the sweet berry scent has come out of hiding (I couldn't smell it at all at first), but there is still a kind of soapy smell in the background, and it's still very faint on me. I'm kind of on the fence with this one now-- I might have to wear it to work tomorrow to see how it is all day.
