Queen of Swords

It's the phero I'm a bit worried about. It's not as intense as Sexpionage, but still...

It wouldn't be the worst thing in the world if I wore this outside now would it? At least if I layered it with, I don't know, LFM?

OMG!! WANT!!!!

 

Glitter Kissed

We all like a little bling and glam around the holidays…the shiny objects tempting us from store windows and the pages of catalogs and computer screens…the yards of tinsel and lights and tons of brightly-colored ornaments going on sale in the stores three months ahead of time…a coating of frost and snow making even the most dreary vista an enchanted crystalline landscape. So the LPMP house elves wanted you to feel a nice warm glow with some razzle-dazzle to it! Enjoy our delicious gingersnap scent: ginger and a crisp-baked gingersnap accord combined with warm hazelnut, fluffy marshmallow and the richness of brown sugar. Best of all, we've included a glistening swirl of gold mica, so be sure to shake it up and get your glitter on!

GINGER (BREAD) ~ 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.

BROWN SUGAR ~ Attracts love, luck, sweetness and riches. Lust inducing, wishes granted.

HAZELNUT ~ Intuition, wisdom, protection, fertility.

HOLIDAY SPICES ~ Luck, health, prosperity, money.

Contains golden mica - shake it up!

I'm officially on my way to poverty even if I buy the sampler pack first.

Layered with Because the Night w/LFN and a touch of Heart & Soul, it does make meeting and talking to people easier. I swear one of these days I'll start a new thread on phero layering.

Not everyone responds to the same phero blend in the same way, 'course it be true that men are controlling themselves around you in while you're wearing non-SWS blends order to be, uhm, gentlemen, so it might take time before you get what you're looking for.

I seem to have had good luck with Velvet Kisses w/Cuddle Bunny in the singular, even though I prefer the sense of self control I get with Leather and Dominance (or even LFM), and have a habit of layering it with them instead of using it as something to get hits, it seems to soften the affects of the Alpha blends (not like I'd wear it with SWS, but who knows, it might work for some people).

I went to bed with this on, I think the pher

I wore this one to bed again last night.... This one for some reason is so great to sleep in

I went to bed with this thing on, and somehow it works. Not that it helped me get up earlier, but at least I got to sleep earlier. I may need an unscented version of this sooner than I originally thought.

Blends like Leather, Dominance, and LFM do tend to help me focus more, my guess is that Iron Hand, Velvet Glove capabilities requires the ability to be less influenced by distractions, thus be more sleep-friendly.

I just hope Glitter Kissed has real glitter in it.

Me too, but it's really thanks to LPMP that I've finally given in to desserty foodyness. Floral scents are highly overrated anyway-unless they're paired with yummy things.

Anything with honey is nice, but I'm speaking as an unreasonable rabid convert.

Something like Egg, Sugared Honeycomb, or one of the cakey ones might work for you, but no guarantees.

It doesn't give me a headache, but I still soften it with sugary scents to tone it down.

Hmm, do you have experience with blends like Open Windows, LACE, or Leather? It could be the A-nol. However, I've had a negative experience with Goddess of the Blue Moon due to the perfume itself and only had success after getting an unscented bottle of LFM. YMMV.

After some more experimentation layering it with VK again, I'm starting to think I'll be using Leather less often. Hell I'm sure Dominance would be great with LACE, if layered right. Yes, you have to be careful about dosages due to A-Nol, and I don't believe every blend with Est in it should be used with Dominance, far from it, but I like having control over Est levels.

I heard you can get cops out of your hair with clarifying shampoo.

Yep, I was right, this is MUCH better when cop'd.

Also, this is great when layered with Velvet Kisses with Cuddle Bunny, it softens the fragrance while strengthening VK's foodie elements. This isn't weird at all, since Leather is full of Est.

I hope this won't sell out too quickly.

Whatever is in Leather and Dominance seems to calm me down a bit. I haven't tried A1 yet, though maybe Androstenone has similarities.

I have at least one ex-friend who thought I should change, and we never even got involved. I'm more pissed off at myself now really over it these days, and the fact the friendship would dissolve was probably inevitable given what he wanted out of those types of things back then.

Sorry, threads like these bring back memories.

Ouch! Changing yourself does not mean you will get the person you want to be with.

Well you can try and accomplish the task, but it's only short-term and you more often than not end up pissed off, bitter and resentful at each other sometime later. : P

If the relationship is truly broken, he's been seeing himself as a caregiver then there isn't very much you can do. I'm sorry to be this direct.

Also true.

Hi there sweetie.....I have a strong opinion on this and being as I am known as "she who has no tact", I am just going to have to lay it out there, and I hope you don't get offended.

 

The blends that you say made him "dismissive" of you are the ones that would normally garner a sexual response, as most of them contain copulins, and some contain a lot of them. Maybe because of the issues in your relationship, he is not wanting to be sexual, so the sex signals in the copulins are putting him off. If you want to bond with him, and the socials make him open up, go with the socials and do not push the sex issue. Use the socials and TALK. Really bond.

 

This may make some people here upset, and I know this is not what you want to hear, but I am going to say it anyway......HAVING SEX WILL NOT FIX A BROKEN RELATIONSHIP! It will not help you re-bond. Seriously. Re-bond emotionally and intellectually. Then, if sex happens, it will happen. It sounds like he is totally averse to sex right now, and I wouldn't push him. I am 45, and that is one thing that I have learned, and it is fact. If the relationship is truly broken, you may encourage him to have sex with you, but that does not mean that your relationship will be fixed.....in fact, it could make things worse by complicating things and confusing him further.

 

I would go strictly with socials and have a good time together over your vacation. Talk, laugh, and enjoy each other's company. If sex happens, let it happen naturally.

You should write an advice column.

Mara said she made enough of nearly everything for two months, so it's not something I'll lose sleep over.

Update:

Phero-wise, it seems it might have been a good thing that I took a break from sampling it for awhile, the effects are milder, I don't feel as spacey, I do feel sexy and in a good mood. This is now better for me than Open Windows. I'll try it a few more times however just to be sure.

At first I was apprehensive about this due to the use of water accord, but it's surprisingly softer on me than I expected, more tropical and coconutty. Hopefully I won't feel like doing anything anti-social with this phero blend this time around. I'd probably buy this unscented should I ever get around to purchasing this one, though.
