Synergist

I ordered a full bottle of this unsniffed, thinking it would be right up my alley. Unfortunately it doesn't seem to work on me, I've tried it a bunch of times now and each time it just goes kind of plastic and artificial and soapy. This is the same thing that happened to me with Summertime Blue so I am feeling pretty certain at this point that blueberries just don't work on my skin. I really wanted this to work but I just don't think it's going to for me. Onto the trade thread it goes!

Welcome! Best of luck with your adventure

Ooooh Ebil Ginger Cookies in a spray - now that's an awesome idea!!

Goddess of the Blue Moon!!

I've been thinking for a while that the inside of my bag seems to smell really nice, and wondering if maybe I had accidentally sprayed something in there. Turns out the lid fell off my trial vial of ATOS and the contents have leaked throughout my bag. Yet, I really don't mind one bit! What a gorgeous smell.

I really think Empathy potion (Heart 2 Heart) would work well. Great for calm, accepting discussions.

If you don't have many yet I would vote White because it is more versatile in my opinion

Yes ma'am, I'll get right on it!

I just love the versatility of all the colours. Now that I have the whole set, I can pretty much add them to any other potion I'm wearing depending on what scent it is. If I wear Goddess of the Blue Moon, I add OCCO Blue, if I wear Pink Sugar I add OCCO Pink, if I wear Stealing Heaven I add OCCO Green, if I wear anything fruity I add OCCO Ambrosia, and so on. There is one to layer with every potion!

I've only worn this a couple of times now - it arrived JUST before the new Empathy & Harmony came out, and I am kicking myself as, had I known, I would have ordered a bottle of that instead!! (But I guess it won't hurt to have both now will it ) So far I feel like this potion is helping in some way, although at this limited stage of testing my notes here are just guesses. I have felt that I am more open with it in conversations with others, or that it has helped us reach that close, deep stage of a conversation quicker and more comfortably. I was talking with C1 today about some deeply personal things and it all felt very comfortable - like it was perfectly normal to discuss these things with each other and there was no need for embarrassment or awkwardness. When I was talking with Nelson yesterday, much of the time I was in tears but I still felt like I could hold my head high. There was nothing weird or wrong about having emotions, they were just what they were and I could discuss and analyse them without shame. In both cases the other person seemed to be feeling and acting the same way. This is a surprise hit with C1 in a way I never would have expected. Wearing this the last few times I talked with him, I felt really happy just talking and I realised I had dropped some of the anxiety I normally felt about needing to impress him or try to turn the conversation in a flirty direction. I was just content to leave it to be what it was and not make it more. This may prove to be a good "getting over him/her" potion. The real test will be if this works with Ellen. I don't want to be without this when I do finally confront her.

I wore this yesterday and was in the car for a long drive into town and back with Larry, and then hanging around at a shopping centre for a few hours. I was in a bit of a crabby mood because I was hungry and tired and had a lot on my mind, but he seemed to be in the best mood all day. He seemed extra jovial, joking around with the people who got in the lift with us, the people who served us at the cafe, and so on. He kept playfully trying to get me out of my mood, and was extra nice to me. These kinds of moods with him are rare, and I wonder if Open Windows played a role or if it was just a coincidence. Certainly my behaviour alone wasn't conducive to the mood, so it is likely OW had something to do with it!

I really want to try this. It sounds so beautiful.

Welcome!

I think possibly the effect of pheromones changes over the wear. Like the kind of reaction you could expect immediately is different to the one hour mark, two hour mark, etc. So for some blends like L2K the particular reaction at the one or two hour mark might be more of note or stronger for some reason. I don't think this is the case with most blends, but it may be for some of them.

Passion in Pink comes to mind - but this sounds like an awesome combo as well!!

Ooh! Is it like this??

I know PM will be, but sadly I feel Portmanteau won't...

YES lol that poor little pop-up gets a lot of abuse... even though he is just doing his job... I always swear at him

I may need to get a bottle of Empathy & Harmony. I don't know if I can wait until I have more things to place in a bigger order.

Do you think the bully also has to want to be or feel nice?

Oh this thread is too long to follow. Every day I come back a few new pages have been added! By the time I read anything and try to reply to it my post will be redundant!

Ok. I need this one. Need.

I am a tearful laugher. It doesn't take much laughing for my eyes to tear up, and if I'm really laughing I look like I'm sobbing! It's actually quite embarrassing! And yay, I ranked up! Witch avi this time

So this one has mica in it? Is it in the samples as well or just the full bottle? I don't remember seeing mica in my sample, maybe I need to take a closer look...

This was nice enough in the vial, a very complex and rich floral. But on my skin within a few minutes it goes nasty, with the amber and resins taking over and some kind of musk coming through that turns to cat pee on me. Not surprising as several of the notes I see listed in this are ones I know don't work for me.
