LadyVictoria Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 At first sniff I do get the Angelique Vibe, but this might be more Glistening Buttons or Angeliques Dark Twin. It's darker more buttery cocoa butter- and that is just sniffing the vial ya'll! I haven't tried on skin because I am riding the Fuzzy Wuzzy train!

BlueBear Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 Hmmm, this one wasn't even on my radar! I can't wait to try it. I like the idea of Angelique's dark twin! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LadyVictoria Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 (edited) I couldn't wait. I slathered this baby on. OMG! This is Halo's Angelique resurrected from the dead, Pet Semetary style! It's a bad ass motherfucker! Decadent, evilly sinfully creamy, ready to envelope your target in a blanket of thick deliciousness. I get no honey. It starts off very similar to Angelique and stays creamier, gets darker and richer. This is Halo's Angelique and Glistening Buttons battling it out in the steel cage!

NuTrix Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 OH! OH! OH! *eyes roll to back of head* WHAT IS THIS? OH! I knew I wanted a full bottle and I'm glad I ordered it because there is NO WAY this sample would have lasted! This IS slather worthy...NO NO MORE than slather worthy! *convulses with delight* Decadently delicious and room permeating upon initial application...the musk...THE MUSK! *shudders* hint of honey but the MUSK! OHSWEETGOODNESSME! Blather, blather, babble...I need to excuse myself until I can write a coherent review...oooooooohsweetgoodnessmeeeeee.......

SportyCurve5 Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 This has a vanilla, chocolate, musk vibe!! I had to get a bottle! Not my usual scent, but its tasty, and the BI was a plus!! I havent tested the BI phero, but the scent was yummy, I had to do it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luna65 Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 Yeah this is a dead ringer for Angelique, IMO, if perhaps somewhat less sweet. It's like a softer version of the mix. I wrote a poem based on the concept of the name: Behind those heavy ornate doors there is much decadence to be witnessed, from the sire for whom everyone bows down to the lowliest chambermaid, scrubbing that very same floor which foreheads have touched in reverence. And she observes a multitude of beauty as the women move to and fro, in the daily routines of their pampered lives. The seraglio standing stern as a fortress but inside is perfumed delight and soft surfaces. She delights in the glamour and glitter but even as the shadows lengthen and the music slithers like the hips of dancers for the sultan’s pleasure she wonders if one day she might be found as coveted a treasure as those who scarcely blink a kohl-rimmed eye to observe her careful labors.

NuTrix Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 Ok. Apologies for earlier incoherent babbling. Not sure exactly WHAT came over me. I have NOT been drinking tonight. I am still not sure exactly WHAT happened. I think I am ok now... It really does permeate the room upon application. Strong sweet, foody, cocoa butter creamy, vanilla honey goodness and the amber musky depths just sent me over the edge! I never smelled anything like it EVER! It has mellowed considerably to a sweet creamy deliciousness but I have not ceased to huff my arms since application. Is it the addition of the BI? BI has never scent me into the tizzy I experienced when I put on Odalisque. 1 inch strips to wrists, backs of hands, dab behind each ear and 1 inch strip between breasts. I have applied more BI than that and in combination with other pheros and never went mental like I just did with Odalisque! I am SO glad I got the full bottle of this. Maybe I shouldn't say so, because others will want it...yes, it's like THAT. Can I get a witness from my sistas?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bella15 Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 Beautiful poem, Luna!! Odalisque is definitely a keeper - it covers the BI perfectly, and it's soft, sweet, almost a skin-type scent on me. I think it will work perfectly! The honey is not dirty, the cocoa butter doesn't take over, there's no plasticky feel like I get from some vanillas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luna65 Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 Thanks y'all! I suspect everyone who loves Angelique will probably snag a bottle, I know I plan to! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luna65 Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 For me the primary difference is Angelique is sweeter and lasts longer; it has more of an intense gourmand character whereas Odalisque evolves into more of a sweetened skin scent, IMO.

katz Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 Holy Vanilla-creamy-yummy-BI covering-magic! This one can be dabbed as it carries so well, and be sure he will attach his nose to wherever it's applied. I almost had to pry the man off my chest so we could finish watching a show last night. Even there this morning, too...lovely soft hints of scent that make you crave more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueBear Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 I agree with the others!! This is a deep Angelique smell, like how that would smell if it came out of the skin. It's not very sweet, but that works for this. I don't know if it's a full bottle yet; I have to watch how the honey plays, but so far so good!! And I know and love BI. I forgot I was testing this when i went to the gym. I've decided BI and the gym don't work for me. It was packed, so I ended up on a treadmill right next to a dude, and he was doing some weird, weird mirroring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Invidiana Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 This is like Angelique slipped into a black velvet dress with a thigh-high leg slit. I actually get more cocoa than Angelique, and the musk is a warmer, sexier type. The way the honey sexes up the chocolate reminds me a bit of Deliciously Wicked though this is an entirely different scent. And--I don't know but does BI make me feel more confident or something? I swear the self-effects these supposedly "sexual" pheros have on me are the best thing ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowflake Posted November 22, 2012 Share Posted November 22, 2012 Oh, this is very close to Halo's Angelique. Hmm, it's vanilla cake with buttercream, simply delicious! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cinnamonmel Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 It has cocoa butter from Halo's, but it does do something different in the background, I've been finding Halo's a bit weird lately, my nose has gone hormonal- nuts. I'm not getting quite the same recoil factor from this but I'm going to have to try and sample this again when I am not so sensitive and weird.

Eggers Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 Hmm... Okay, it *is* that TOTM for me, so my sniffer may be off a bit, but at first sniff, there seems to be something a little earthy in this, something that reminds me of Luv Truffle. (Not that that's a horrible thing; I love Luv Truffle). I haven't tried it on my skin, yet, 'cause I've been working pretty solidly for the last 36 hours, and I've got 6 more to go before I'm finished and can sample freely. (I CANNOT WAIT!). I'd love to wear this tonight, since BF is taking me to the movies, (Twilight! ), but I think it's going to be a FW kind of movie experience.

Raq On Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 Hmmm, this one went on fine. Smelled like chocolate in the vial but I got other notes too. Put a few dots on wrist, chest and neck. Got vanilla and thought, "Yay I can wear this." but within 30 minutes the the honey and musk amped so strong I had to wash it off. It was if it kept getting stronger. The foody notes disappeared and all I could smell was musk/heavy perfume scent. Since honey is paired so much with musk and/or tonkin, I'm still not sure what amps so strong but I'm pretty sure it's the honey. The best way to describe it is sort of like heavy perfume/cat pee smell. I like the smell of honey scents like Phero girl, but I guess they just don't behave on my skin.

NuTrix Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 @ Raq On Oh no! That's so sad! I totally love this one, like eyes rolled to the back of head, huff mania love!

hearts Posted November 25, 2012 Share Posted November 25, 2012 Weird... Today I put this on and immediately think ... Mmmm... Smells like.... Hot chocolate? Yes, it's smells really chocolate-y at first. After about 10 min it's settling into a more "perfume" the musk and amber are peeking out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skayna Posted November 25, 2012 Share Posted November 25, 2012 Hello all! ) Very new to here! Im Donna! I received my order from LP about 5 days ago and have had the chance to try a few out! I have worn Odalisque twice! 1st time. The initial smell was extemely strong! dont think i was expecting but amazing it hits you hard and 8 hours later the smell is still going noticeably i loved this! at the end of a long night been able to smell the area and get a whiff of it put a smell on my face. Personally the initial smell wasnt completely to my taste as maybe a little too thick/sweet, i generally prefer lighter/fruitier smells, a tiny bit goes a long way, wich is amazing! however the smell that remains after 8 hours I LOVE, not too strong and still sweet but more subtle! i look forward to finding my perfect fragrance, fom what ive seen so far im sure i am Phero side. 1st night i wore it i put one spray on my left elbow crease, I definitely noticed a hit, not at first however people were definitely much more "oops i touched you" one guy approached me and while he ws talking to me actually kept grabbing my arm, and his spacial bubble was definitive extra close even every time i moved away! Another guy came up singing and asking my name and even when i walked away and conversation got awkward he was following me but almost as if he didnt know himself why..! it was a good night 2nd night, I repeated the same to see if i could see similar effects to judge the hit. lots of people kept coming over and just wanting to talk to me, im pretty sociable anyway however even a few people who normally dont spare me a second glance went out of thee way to join in the conversation and ask question or two. Not as obvious a hit then again the setting was a night out but surrounded by work people! I definitely felt people wanted to be in my company more. Anyhow! thought id share as i spend hours searching reviews before i buy something! Blessings D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just Ducky Posted November 25, 2012 Share Posted November 25, 2012 Hi, Donna! Welcome to the forum!

ETA: I have to deal with some budget restrictions at the moment, but I'll try to get an unphero'd version of this cop'd if and when I can, though I feel like focusing on a completely virgin version of this first.

luna65 Posted November 26, 2012 Share Posted November 26, 2012 I bought a virgin bottle simply because I already have so much Blatant Invitation that I really don't need anymore, plus I just love the scent since I am a big fan of halo's Angelique (and have been hoarding my one bottle).

Eggers Posted December 1, 2012 Share Posted December 1, 2012 Wore this for the first time last night, and OH MY! is it lovely. The scent doesn't last very long. Initially it's pretty and creamy, and it has almost a caramel smell to it. Then after an hour or so it fades so much that in order to smell it I need to put my nose right against my skin - tough when you're wearing it on your torso! But I do love this. It's soft and sweet, but not overly so. And the phero blend/cops are virtually undetectable, even after the scent fades. I will wear this often. Curiously though, there was very little reaction from BF, even though I was curled up with him all night. But then again, he's all geared up for a show he's playing tonight in which he'll be playing three new original tunes, and he's been *extremely* distracted/preoccupied with that. Still, it was kind of a bummer. Generally, the first time I wear a phero blend I try not to make any overtures toward him myself, so that I can see what kind of effect the phero might have on him. I suppose I'll have to give Odalisk/BI another whirl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NuTrix Posted December 1, 2012 Share Posted December 1, 2012 Oh Eggers! I have the fade quick problem with Fuzzy Wuzzy like that I love this one and am lucky it lasts and lasts! I would say use lotion first so your skin doesn't eat it up but I did that with FW and still...POOF! gone. Does anyone know: Has anyone ordered the spray? If we order the sprays, are they @ 1000mcg per bottle? Like the x1? I haven't ordered a fragrance in a spray form yet but I'm thinking I would like to Thanks!
