Dolly Posted July 2, 2012 Posted July 2, 2012 So, we were talking about a fruity PE....YES, I did it.....will it covers cops? OH YES it does! I put an assload of EoW on straight, dried it down, and covered....no cops! currently getting ready to add some EoW to one of the bottles to see if it works good that way as well..... The name is SOOOOOOO appropriate...."hot and sticky"....well, yes, it is! Here is what I asked for......mostly pineapple, sweet orange (like mandarin), and pink grapefruit.....with a drop of dark honey, just to make it a little "sticky" smelling. This is an absolutely drop-dead gorgeous, absolutely perfect summer scent! Exactly what I wanted!!!! I mean, dead-on! Mara, you are an absolute ARTIST! I love it! Two more bottles will bee ordered shortly!!!
Dolly Posted July 2, 2012 Author Posted July 2, 2012 Ok, so wet, it smells mostly like fresh pineapple, with a dash of honey.......as it is developing, I am getting some grapefruit peeking through, and orange.....always with that deep sticky honey in the background......wow, I am loving this one for summer.....
cinnamonmel Posted July 2, 2012 Posted July 2, 2012 Now that is something I'd never have thought of but it sounds good!
Dolly Posted July 2, 2012 Author Posted July 2, 2012 (edited) Yay!!! Thanks, Dolly!!! No, thank YOU! I love it! And cinnamonmel, I thought of it for a cops cover.....everybody was talking about different fruit combos for OCCO versions, so I decided to request a PE...... Edited July 2, 2012 by Dolly
Dolly Posted July 2, 2012 Author Posted July 2, 2012 I have to say, though.....I almost peed my pants laughing at the name......I told my man, and he told me he wants to smell my hot and sticky when he gets home....LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL
Potion Master Posted July 2, 2012 Posted July 2, 2012 LOL! Tell them your "working title" for the scent when you described it to me!
Dolly Posted July 2, 2012 Author Posted July 2, 2012 LOL! Tell them your "working title" for the scent when you described it to me! In the OCCO Fruits thread, and to Mara, I said maybe we could call it "Dolly's Citrass Salad" (I think Calii actually coined the phrase), but I didn't think Mara could put that on a label! When I told my man that little tidbit, he started laughing so hard that he could hardly speak....I told him it was because he always tells me that perfumes have "ass" in them......LOL
Dolly Posted July 2, 2012 Author Posted July 2, 2012 My man is excited partly because he knows I tend toward the "darker side" with perfumes, and he likes it when I can sometimes lighter.....just for a change.....
Dolly Posted July 2, 2012 Author Posted July 2, 2012 Now, it is mostly oranges and honey with a teensy bit of pineapple.....still a bit of a grapefruit "tang" poking thorough.....OMG this is delicious! And this is covering a HEAVY cops load!!!
Dolly Posted July 2, 2012 Author Posted July 2, 2012 OK, as an EXPERIMENT only, I took a 5 ml bottle....added half EoW, half Hot and Sticky.....will allow it to sit for 24 hours and then test.....this way, we will all TOTALLY know the cops-covering potential of this baby!!! It smells luscious right now, covering straight up cops.....I am loving it......even though it is not normally my "style" of perfume.

And, yes......I know that 50-50 is not the normal ratio.....that is why I did it in a small bottle.....just testing the ability of it to cover......
Beccah Posted July 2, 2012 Posted July 2, 2012 Now, it is mostly oranges and honey with a teensy bit of pineapple.....still a bit of a grapefruit "tang" poking thorough.....OMG this is delicious! And this is covering a HEAVY cops load!!! Hehe, you said tang.. Hmm, this may be the answer to the question of a grapefruit scent that can take an OCCO load of cops. You're a mad pheromone genius, Dolly
Gabylicious Posted July 2, 2012 Posted July 2, 2012 Dolly, your PE sounds amazing! And that label is really awesome!!! The sticky part sound really tempting... What do you get the most, the pinneaple or the grapefruit? I've noticed scents that include honey last longer on me...in your opinion, does the dark honey in your PE makes it last longer?

What do you get the most, the pinneaple or the grapefruit? I've noticed scents that include honey last longer on me...in your opinion, does the dark honey in your PE makes it last longer? I get mostly pineapple when wet......mostly sweet orange when dry.....the grapefruit just kind of pops in and out.....the honey actually keeps it from being too bright, I think.....citrus gets really bright on me, so that is why I wanted the honey......
Gabylicious Posted July 2, 2012 Posted July 2, 2012 Thanks, hun! Sounds very tempting and I like what you say about the honey taming the citruses....and that label is irresistibly cute..I might get a bottle, I think I will.... .

missdarlyncherie Posted July 3, 2012 Posted July 3, 2012 OH I LOVE THIS LABEL!!!! I hope there is some left by the time I can order...(damn those truck repairs Michael made me get...safe on the road? Hahrumph!)
tyvey Posted July 3, 2012 Posted July 3, 2012 The pineapple and mandarin orange combo sounds LUSCIOUS ...
Dolly Posted July 3, 2012 Author Posted July 3, 2012 The pineapple and mandarin orange combo sounds LUSCIOUS ... Oh tyvey, it is......Mara made it smell EXACTLY like I envisioned! She is a genius!
Synergist Posted July 3, 2012 Posted July 3, 2012 This sounds lovely! When can I order it? I want to get it boosted with as strong a load of EoW as it can take!
Dolly Posted July 3, 2012 Author Posted July 3, 2012 I would assume when the new releases become available.....
Synergist Posted July 3, 2012 Posted July 3, 2012 Ok, so what you're saying is... it's back to more stalking for me
ElizabethOSP Posted July 3, 2012 Posted July 3, 2012 This really does sound yummy!!! Wonder if Mara is going to offer some smaller bottles again...?
Dolly Posted July 3, 2012 Author Posted July 3, 2012 My man really liked it......he said that it doesn't smell overly "prissy" or "girly", which he kind of expected when I told him the notes.....he said it smelled more like a grown-up lady fruit scent (I would assume because of the honey)......he couldn't stop smelling me.....and I couldn't stop smelling myself! Actually, I can still smell remnants of it this morning.......
JJL Posted July 3, 2012 Posted July 3, 2012 Hi Dolly, It sounds delicious and naughty ..... will it be available to others for purchase
Dolly Posted July 3, 2012 Author Posted July 3, 2012 Hi Dolly, It sounds delicious and naughty ..... will it be available to others for purchase As far as I know.....I got 2 bottles initially, and have requested 2 more.....after that, I guess the remainder will be up for grabs!
Dolly Posted July 3, 2012 Author Posted July 3, 2012 OK.....test of cops load......as I said yesterday, to test the covering ability, I mixed a 5ml bottle 50/50 with EoW. Let sit for 24 hrs (ok, well actually about 22 hrs). Applied....wet, it smells more like grapefruit than pineapple.....I can detect a HINT of cops.....and I do mean just a hint.....let's see what happens when it dries down....

Applied....wet, it smells more like grapefruit than pineapple.....I can detect a HINT of cops.....and I do mean just a hint.....let's see what happens when it dries down.... OK, no stinky! This one should handle an OCCO load of cops with no issues......like I said, I went over that amount JUST to test it.....at 50/50, holds up well, although the cops make the grapefruit and orange more prominent than the pineapple until dry down.....upon dry down, I am getting the fruits balanced so much so that I can almost not distinguish the individual notes, unless I concentrate and THINK about the different fruits used.......it is just a lovely citrus "mesh" if that makes sense! LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE IT!
Synergist Posted July 3, 2012 Posted July 3, 2012 Great! You are getting me excited about ordering a cops boosted bottle!
Potion Master Posted July 3, 2012 Posted July 3, 2012 I only made enough for 2 more bottles after Dolly's 2, but I can make more!
Dolly Posted July 3, 2012 Author Posted July 3, 2012 (edited) I only made enough for 2 more bottles after Dolly's 2, but I can make more! Seems like there is a demand Miss Mara! You may want to make more! The cop-covering ability of this one is great! I need at LEAST 2 more bottles...... Edited July 3, 2012 by Dolly
luna65 Posted July 3, 2012 Posted July 3, 2012 I know I'd like one! Hopefully there's enough of us to make it worth the effort.
LadyVictoria Posted July 3, 2012 Posted July 3, 2012 Jealous that I can't wear honey, this sounds amazing! I adore the label!
Dolly Posted July 3, 2012 Author Posted July 3, 2012 Jealous that I can't wear honey, this sounds amazing! I adore the label! Not much honey.....just a teensy bit.....
