  1. I have been wearing this today, and it may just be that we're getting close to Christmas but I swear this makes me think of figgy pudding. Probably the boysenberry in it is making me drool for mincemeat pies and cookies. I loved this already, but now I'm thinking it'll be delicious to smell like this all through the holidays.

  2. I need a bottle of 'Red' for the upcoming holiday season. Plus I'm wanting to try some LAM after reading that people feel fabulous wearing it. I want 'Swimming With Sharks' for work, unscented 'CuddleBunny' for whomping men over the head with, and maybe 'Mellonia's Secret' because I've had my eye on that for ages and just never got it. Need to go back and read up on some of the men's pheros because it seems there was one that worked on women for fostering camaraderie and relaxed group dynamics. Maybe it was 'Intellectual Man'...

  3. This is definitely "fall in a bottle" but it is so incredibly strong on me...I don't know if I could wear it, maybe just a dab. It may be the dragon's blood - it's not cheap, of course - but I think it's amping on me to the point where it's doing that whole "craft store" thing.....

     

    Agreed, it is really strong at first, so I can apply only the merest dab. However, that seems to fade fairly soon and I can apply another smidgen, which I don't mind. I had done that late this afternoon, walked in a co-worker's office, and she blurted out "Have you been burning candles?" I love it though, and am planning for a full bottle.

  4. I absolutely love this! It is sugared anise. All of you who don't like the usual licorice scent will probably like this. The only problem I'm having with it is it is pretty light. I'm slathering it on every couple of hours just to be able to enjoy it. My sample is going to be gone lickety-split.

  5. Drat, I forgot to get a sample of this in my order the other day. Oh well, I'm sure I'll be ordering the Halloween scents so I'll get it then.

     

    Am I the only one on this forum who actually is in Mississippi?

  6. The more I have worn this this past week, the more I like it. It is a sugary sweet wine, a lot like a combination of 'Pink' and 'Vamp Cabernet' I've used regularly. You can not judge this if you only sniff it in the sample; the result after melding with your skin is entirely different. I think I'm going to dump the rest of this sample in my hair mist so I can enjoy walking around in a yummy cloud of this.

  7. MUSCADINE GRAPE ~ Fertility, increases mental prowess, money attracting.

    POMEGRANATE ~ Divination, luck, wishes granted, wealth, fertility.

    LIME ~ Healing, love, protection.

    HAZELNUT ~ Intuition, wisdom, protection, fertility.

    WALNUT ~ Leaves promote fertility, carry nuts to delay pregnancy. Wishes granted, strengthens the heart, enhancement of mental powers. Dark earthly powers.

    GINGER ~ Fiery and fortifying, induces passion. Intensifies love spells and success spells. Love, money, success, power. Ginger increases sensitivity in the erogenous zones.

    MARSHMALLOW ROOT ~ Fertility, happiness, creativity, increase in psychic awareness, intuition, love, protection, exorcism. Gently commanding and persuading.

    BALSAMIC AMBER ~ Fertility, love, luck, riches.

     

    I had been ignoring this one because I didn't like it in the sample vial. But I got brave and tried massaging a bit of this into my scalp it is wonderful. I'm surrounded in a sweet, fruity cloud of fragrance now. I get a little bit of greeny herbalness from it, but since there is really no greenery in it that is probably the result of the lime with the other ingredients. I get a bit of a sense of sweet wine from the muscadines which makes it more grown-up than kiddie Kool-Aid.

  8. Both Swimming with Sharks and Dominance seem to be for "commanding respect" type reactions. But Dominance seems more aggressive and intimidating, and Swimming with Sharks seems more conciliatory and "nice but don't push me". Does that make sense, and is that the feel you guys get from them? If not, could you expound on what you think about Swimming with Sharks? There is not already a thread here for that; I searched and found mentions of it in other threads but not an in-depth discussion of it.
