  1. I ordered a bottle of this last week, can't wait to try it out! And I went with this instead of Topper because to much A-nol is bad for me. I really need to try something heavy in B-nol.

     

    Will report back later :)

     

    I'm the same, I have to go light on alpha androstenol. But too much beta androstenol is equally scary, maybe even more so because it has such an emotional component in it for me. The key to all of them is moderation!

  2. Ok, I'm definitely in the camp of not using pheromones with kids, but my 13 yr.old really gets to me at times. Taking him shoe shopping today promised to be a chore, that I was avoiding at all costs. So I bit the bullet & slathered myself in the magic juice. Damn! This stuff is magic with him, but I remember how sweet he was to me when I was pregnant with his brother. I'm thinking if you have to be around teenage boys, hit them with something Est heavy. My son was so much better behaved in the store & very sweet to me.

     

    That's so interesting and good to know! I wonder why that would be so? Maybe brings out the early stages of the protective male in them?

  3. I'm so sad about the BodaciouS Musk which disappeared so fast. I've bought just a small bottle, but when I received it today, I liked it much more than I even expected. I'd love to get a rebrew of this wonderful musk!

     

    Same - my 5ml bottle will not last me long enough. But it looks like any on the trade thread will be in high demand and so they will be a ) overpriced and b ) snatched up quickly :(

  4. I have to admit I'm not too keen on this scent. It smelt a bit too masculine on me, I was afraid people would think I was wearing men's cologne or something. After a few hours it dried down and I just got the subtle oakmoss, which I wasn't too keen on either. I think I will wear this sample for intent rather than scent, and rethink my planned purchase of a full bottle.

  5. Well this is the embodiment of dark, sexy honey!! I have not worn honey scents much, and this inspires me to try them out some more. I can imagine this would layer beautifully with a lot of things, giving a sweet but dark edge. Very sexy and gloopy.

  6. I think this would be great for those who like mint, but I really can't stand mint. I don't even use a very minty toothpaste - I hate the "cold" feeling and the way it changes the taste of everything. This one is not for me.

  7. This one actually came out quite fruity and tangy to my nose. I hope as it dries down it will get a bit darker and more sensual, and I think it will!

     

    ETA: Ok, yep, there it is... a bit spicy and dark, but still with that kind of blackcurrant fruity undertone.... I like it!

  8. I get a dry, almost dusty musk from this. Somehow it doesn't sit nicely in my nose and immediately after sniffing it I got a bit of a third-eye headache. It does soften nicely on my skin though. May have to try this again later.

     

    Edit: Yep, definitely getting better on my skin. It's a lovely sweet soft musk now. I hope it doesn't do the headache thing next time, I think maybe I'm just prone to it at the moment.

  9. This one is a little too resinous and musky for me. It goes soapy after a while and the violet doesn't amp enough for my liking. I will say though, it does indeed smell very "purple"!

  10. Despite what I see in the other reviews here, this one actually works on me!! I just LOVE the violet, and it is nicely sweetened and made juicy with the berry. I think I still prefer Piia's violet, but this one is a very close runner-up. I just can't get enough violet!

  11. WTF? I was sure I just posted here. Anyway, I was saying this is very similar to BodaciouS Musk, which I love, and I probably wouldn't be able to tell the difference except this is maybe just a little heavier. I still love it though. Who ever knew I would love musks so much??

  12. Been wearing this slathered on my wrists all day and it has lasted really well. I keep enjoying a sniff of my wrists from time to time. I really love how it makes me enjoy the feeling of "warm" skin - like it draws attention to, or makes me notice, the heat coming out of my body, in a really nice way. I don't know if that makes sense at all!

     

    I'm a bit sad though looking over the trade threads that no one is offering any of this for sale, and Mara said she probably couldn't make anymore!! :(

  13. I'm very picky with musks as there are a few musks I simply can't wear as they go soapy or old lady on my skin. But this is unbelievably lovely. It is so soft and subtle, I feel I should bathe my skin in it and I would glow all over. It's gentle, warm skin smell, along the vein of Sneaky Clean, lightly floral and powdery. I think I could layer this with just about anything if I want to add an elegant, womanly edge to what I'm wearing.

  14. This smells really similar to Nectar de L'amour to me... checking the ingredient list I see the only one they have in common is mulberry, so maybe that is what stands out on my skin. I love the candied sweetness of the juicy berries and I'm not getting much peppermint or pine from it, which is great as I'm not so keen on those notes. I'll be keeping an eye out on the trade thread for more of this.
