    @Potion MasterLiving Doll w/Cuddle Bunny would be a wonderful rebrew or start for a reimagining. Just don’t amp up the floral or add chocolate, please. There’s no current CB that I would call a “me” scent, but I would buy this one and spritz liberally, for sure. It’s a crisp apple, not foodie, just bright and fresh. Scentwise, or vibe wise, I’d wear it in the morning to start the day off cheerful, like with Lumina. We have the sexy LP candy apple, but Gravenstein with the chocolate didn’t work for me and this Apple is perfect. Crisp apple + oakmoss + CB = perfection.
    The coffee hasn’t kicked in but if it had, I’s have a much more convincing explanation on why it would be a great rebrew/remix.  

     

    Oooh I don't think I ever tried Living Doll. Tease, though, was one of my favorite apple scents that I would love to have again 🤤

  2. Give me a phero'd up Carbon Black to bathe in 😍

    On second thought, don't, and my precious hoarded bottles will be my little secret 🤣

    So I vote Tantalize instead to get my orchid fix 😁

     

  3. Mmmm. I scooped this up for the boy because I adored the original North Pole, and comparing the two, the newer version is a little lighter and sweeter to my nose - perhaps the age of the other one gives it more depth, but they're still delicious.

    I could have sworn that I had a bottle of the 2010 version and not just a trial vial... must go hunting for someone with a bottle. But in the meantime, I'm going to convince the boything to wear this so I can nom on him :666:

  4. Spot on review, JudyO! I love how this one is definitively a "night scent" (and I too have 4:00 pm somehow as the distinguishing mark!) and yet it's so subtle that I can wear it in many settings that other dark sexy stuff would be wayyy too much for. I also agree this one has a phero effect on me all on its own.

     

    Speaking of which -- is anybody pairing it regularly with a phero? If so, what do you like?

    Gotcha! for me.

  5. After all the research I've done for this set, it kind of alarms me that I feel like I need goats now.

     

    It alarms me even more that my Dad agrees with me.

    Urban farming! Goats and chickens! And you can take the goats on walks! OMG I was in downtown PDX and I saw a guy walking his pig. It was adorable. He kept getting mad at people that wanted to take pictures of it.

  6. That's a good question. The Carbon Black hasn't worked for me yet, but if it loves you, Gotcha! may be a good combo. Foodie lover that I am, I would pair with Atomic Mandarin and Vermillion! :)

    I've been pairing Carbon Black with Gotcha! just because I adore the scent and it works pretty well for me. Been wearing it around my crush/guyfriend and he's been pretty chatty affectionate, almost pushy chatty, like if I don't answer his questions immediately he pouts. It's kinda cute though :P

  7. The long drydown on me is a soft orchid-honey. Mmmm.

     

    The entire time I've been wearing this the scent is really elusive and coy. Whenever I try to smell it off of my skin I can hardly smell anything, but when I give up I get these delicious wafts of scent that I can't follow.

  8. I get a more delicate orchid and scent in general, as well.

     

    At first my skin seems to pull the honey out more, and then it recedes and becomes more of the sugar and oakmoss with the orchid floating delicately in the background, and then finally it becomes this gorgeous orchid musk skin scent. Like at first application I'm thrown into the throes of passion of a darkly delicate wild thing, which is the honey stage, and then sweetens into the afterglow of the sugar and oakmoss, and afterwards is lying languidly in black sheets covered in crushed orchid petals. With how soft the orchid is on me I imagine more black lace than black velvet, but either way Mara did an incredible job on this one.

    I think I may have found a signature scent with this one!

  9. Oh em gee I'm running to check the mailbox just to see if I've gotten my sampler in yet because none of my roommates have checked the mail in a while. I need to smell this naow.

     

    Edit: Squeee! It was there! First thing I did was put some on and yummm. The first thing I smell is actually the honey. Wet on my skin is this decadent honey - musky - orchid scent which is sinful and oh soo good. I need bottles of this.

  10. Had some amazing results with this the other day.

     

    I was wearing a drop from the UN sample droppers (which I love, by the way - I feel like I can control the amount more and I have a way to measure how much I'm using) when I went out shopping with my mom to test it, but didn't seem to have too much of an effect at one drop.

     

    At the end of the day my TG texts, asking if I want to hang out. I tell him I'm busy at the time but I'll let him know when I get back home. Get back, make plans to go see a movie with him, and put two more drops on, letting it dry down but not covering with anything.

     

    Went to the movie, and he's not a very affectionate person in public, which is fine, but I notice him leaning towards me in his seat out of the corner of my eye. I don't think much of it as I'm leaning towards him, but then I straighten up and move away to see. He moves just a little *more* towards me! Interesting...

     

    So then we get back to his place and get ready for bed, and he pulls me into this huge hug and says, "I really missed you. It's been two weeks and I missed you." I had gone to visit a friend for a couple of days a couple weeks before, and the weekend after I got back he had been sick, but I wasn't expecting him to be counting! What shocked me is him saying he missed me - which he's never done while sober. And so we cuddle, which leads to *ahem,* and then afterwards instead of passing out we laid in bed talking for an hour, sharing things, like places we want to travel to, things we used to like doing but lost time for, casual conversation that still brings us a little closer. And it's so *easy,* and comfortable. We're never like that.

     

    During the night I woke up several times to him nuzzling and kissing my neck, where I spread more of the TH out, and pulling me really close to him like he wants to be as close as he possibly can. And when I get up in the morning to go to work, he gave me the saddest look and said he wished I could stay and we'd hide away from the world.

     

    Maybe absence really does make the heart grow fonder, but he's definitely never been like this before, and I'm really hoping to test this out more on him! Craving permanence and commitment? Yes! I'll take it! So glad I tried it <3
