Ekscentra Posted March 30, 2016 Share Posted March 30, 2016 (edited) Aja has a very distinct, unique, nose catching scent. When I first started fiddling around with it, it was with other fragrances. It was that "something" that drew me in, made me keep sniffing - my brain trying to associate it with something else that I could compare or assimilate to. I think that's part of it's allure - it's familiar, but not...it's honey-like, but not - dirty, but not - sweet, but something else...It mesmerizes me! I think that HAS to be part of the attraction it creates on others as well It's exactly,the same effect you see with ambergris, beeswax or other animal scents. I noticed a subtle transformative effect layering it with clary sage. There's that little extra "something" beyond the scent itself. It might not even smell that different on the surface, but it's worlds apart. Testing Aja with my new work mix today. It seems to extend the range of Impi Red Dot and increase the longevity a bit too. Both of these things I've noticed from natural pheromonal scents, especially the animalics.

Ekscentra Posted April 2, 2016 Share Posted April 2, 2016 (edited) Aja seems to be even more versatile than cops for me. It doesn't get so sexual I can't wear it to work, but it seems to be easy to take things in that direction. It doesn't encourage strange reactions and it seems to combine well with anything. I haven't found something yet it doesn't work with. LAL's Nude Alpha Gel is at the top of my list, but full bottles of SS4M and Aja come right after that. This is some great stuff - I only wish I knew what it was. Edit: Aja's diffusion enhancement is terrifyingly powerful! Covered with Impi Red (which usually only projects 5-6 feet), I'm getting 20-30 feet diffusion in open spaces. I'm seeing a lot more on what it's adding to my work mix. Subtle, sensual stares from customers walking past. Everything I do becomes the greatest thing in the world. People feel privileged to get service from me, my bosses ask permission to get me to do my job, etc. I need to get a full bottle of this stuff!

NuTrix Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 my bosses ask permission to get me to do my job, etc. I need to get a full bottle of this stuff! HAHAHA! It IS a fascinating little number isn't it? I kept ordering the samples and then realized I was mixing it with so much it was silly NOT to get the FB. It is VERY versatile as far as combining - and it's sticky - the fragrance lasts and lasts, as in into the next day, and - for me - becomes sweeter over time. Really great stuff!

It is VERY versatile as far as combining - and it's sticky - the fragrance lasts and lasts, as in into the next day, and - for me - becomes sweeter over time. Really great stuff! I think of it as a work-safe cops alternative. I really feel I could pull this off anywhere. It doesn't get sweeter on my skin, but smooths out a bit compared to the beginning. It's right around my preferred limit for sweetness. I tend to prefer dry, green, harsh scents over anything. And just as you say that, I can smell it coming out nicely over 24 hours after the last application. It outlasts attars on my skin, which absolutely perplexes me! This does what I value animalics for and offers some of the benefits of ISO E Super (diffusion enhancement, namely). I still haven't tested any of the male LPMP offerings. Vintage Bandit EdT is tempting me too much at the moment, but I'm sure I'll get to it soon. Anything you might recommend? Vetiver, tobacco, oakmoss, galbanum, sandalwood, and almost any take on a leather accord are a few of my favorite scents. Animalics too, of course - the dirtier, the better! I don't want this thread to veer too off-topic, so... Have you noticed the transformative effects of layering Aja, NuTrix? The scent seems to add a whole new dimension to fragrances, similar to the "3D" effect of ambergris. I'm going to get tons of use out of this one, and not for the pheromonal qualities alone.

Beccah Posted April 4, 2016 Author Share Posted April 4, 2016 I got my first "selfie" from Aja over the weekend. I mean, I feel good when I wear it, regardless. However, I've met the first man that I've *actually* been physically attracted to since my divorce. I was wearing it around him & I couldn't think straight! Of course I love this scent on my skin, it has a quality to the sweetness that reminds of rock candy. It also keeps morphing so that your nose doesn't get used to it, & you only need the tiniest of dabs to get a good diffusion with it. I normally just do a thin swipe up one of my forearms & smoosh it onto the other forearm, the backs of my hands, & my tummy areas. But back to this selfie! Yeah, if we hadn't been in a public situation.... as Pam Poovey (Archer) says "sploosh!" I'm still attracted to him when I'm not wearing it, but I don't notice that he affects me like a horny school girl sans Aja. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have several men's that I liked too much not to make my own that have some notes you mentioned: Mark's Girl Nip 2016 w/Perfect Match Voracious w/Wanted Man (permanent) Dark Desires w/Heart Throb (that might only be found in the trade threads now though) LP Homme (permanent) Un for Men (permanent) Yes! Transformative. Aja changes everything I've combined it with. Because I know what it is, I pick it out from the fragrance - but it doesn't overpower while it is distinctly separate and yet complimentary at the same time. And it has ALWAYS outlasted everything I have paired it with. If you don't know Aja, then it simply seems, like you mentioned, another dimension of the fragrance. It also keeps morphing so that your nose doesn't get used to it, & you only need the tiniest of dabs to get a good diffusion with it. Yes, it definitely changes through the time I apply to the final finish - a gazillion hours later!

missdarlyncherie Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 I'm glad this thread was revived. I have completely abandoned what I once layered with everything! Aja truly makes almost every scent better. I had never considered it on a guy... Interesting! I am going to jump back in and try new combos with this one. Although I love it solo too...

I'll be sure to look into these. Sadly, I can't wear Androstadienone in any amount no matter how well it's buffered. That A1 depression kills me! :/ UN For Men is one I might have overlooked otherwise, and I'll have to see if I can find Dark Desires off someone. I can pick out Aja in a fragrance, less so in smaller amounts. Combining it with Lys Mediterranee yesterday, the two could hardly have blended better. Had I not known what Aja smelt like beforehand, I might have thought this was just part of the fragrance. It surprised me how well it combined with such a light scent. I'd thought it would dominate the florals, but instead it took a backseat to the rest of the scent. So it's more versatile still than I gave it credit for. ?✌ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

androstenol Posted April 16, 2016 Share Posted April 16, 2016 (edited) I love watching the newcomers discover Aja, reminds me of the excitement I felt when Mara first introduced it. Billi, due to your post I was just reminded of Supernatural w/ Aja and I hopped over there to post my second review. Aja is just MAGIC to me. I seem to be getting a bit high off it energetically, probably even more so than just from the scent. It's almost as though it adds to the spin of my chakras or that it behaves chakra-like on its own. It's a wild trip everytime I wear it, so I am careful as to time and place of application.

Billi.Jo94 Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 So husband said it smelled like doe deer pee when it was sprayed on my clothing but on my skin he likes it, it smells so lovely on me!

androstenol Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 Billi, if you go wayyyy back in this thread I have battled with a vinegar smell from this. It definitely seems to be pH sensitive. I'm guessing your clothes are being laundered in a soap which leaves them at a different pH value than your skin. I get best results applying to my torso/belly button area and letting it waft around me from there. Too close to my neck and I get the vinegar/pee smell again. I've even just applied to my legs. It's a fantastically complex substance. I've had the impression I was standing RIGHT in front of a beehive with it once. Oh, and sometimes I spray it to my back. I've switched to the spray and have less trouble than with the oil. Your mileage WILL vary !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

androstenol Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 Mara's recommendations are a great place to start. However, I would agree with that Calii where she shared in December 2013 that she wears it everywhere, even on clothes and sheets. I remember spritzing my sheets with it once, it was heavenly. These days I'm more conservative due to my new office job where I have to be careful about scent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ekscentra Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 Keep in mind that I'm a man, but I never get the vinegar associations. Lucky nose + body chemistry, I guess. The scent never turns on me. I get an animalic honey with a touch of sweetness and maybe a *slight* vinegar undertone. This vinegar side never becomes so prominent as to reduce my enjoyment of the scent. If anything, it goes a long way in rounding things out. The scent is mostly linear on me, and although I don't get many pheromone-like reactions on its own, it seems to enhance whatever I'm using it with.

Ekscentra Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 Oh, it most certainly is! I've had the chance to combine copulins with Aja on a few occasions. I've experienced no negative reactions and no conflict in the scents themselves (both layered and applied at separate app points). Although at least one of the posters in this thread had a negative reaction to this combination, I wouldn't write it off just yet. As always, YMMV.

Beccah Posted April 24, 2016 Author Share Posted April 24, 2016 (edited) I haven't had any negatives reactions to combining cops with Aja, just very strong reactions.

Ekscentra Posted April 26, 2016 Share Posted April 26, 2016 Animals really seem to like Epiandrosterone, DHEA(S), Alpha/Beta Androstenol, Estratetraenol, small amounts of Androsterone, and large amounts of Androstanone in my experience. Some can be averse to Androstenone, others respond about the same as usual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Midnight Requiem Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 This baby just goes... and goes... and goes... Wow at that longetivity. I swiped a stripe in my cleavage and experienced the same thing everyone else did. I woke up the next morning and immediately was hit by Aja! Honey scents always seem to last the longest on me (I remember the clothes I wore when trying SLF literally smelled like SLF for a whole 2 weeks while they were waiting for the laundry). It might be travel shock, but after a while on me, it definitely goes from sweet honey to a veryyyyyyyyyyy dirty honey that is reminiscent of cat pee... It does remind me a bit of SLF in the drydown, although SLF is a lot more floral while this is more pure honey. I love the way this smells in the bottle, and I also tried dabbing some on a cotton ball and sticking it in my bra, and that seemed to do the trick to prevent the really dirty drydown. Considering getting this in a spray or finally investing in a good scent locket... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WildVixen Posted September 16, 2016 Share Posted September 16, 2016 Has anyone had issues with attracting bees/wasps with Aja? I usually forgo really sweets scents this time of year (wasps like sweet smelling things in the fall), because I seem to be a magnet for insects with stingers and I hate to give more of a reason for me being chased around like I'm food.

Eggers Posted September 16, 2016 Share Posted September 16, 2016 I've never had an issue with it, no. In fact, I've never had an issue with bees or wasps while wearing LPs other than to have them fly close to check out my scent - figure out I'm not a flower - and then buzz off looking for some real food.

I had a problem w/ it last year, but not so much this year. I think the apartment managers finally did something about all the wasps' nests around here because there haven't been hardly any wasps around compared to last year. We have had an abundance of hummingbirds, which is very nice. I haven't noticed more mosquitos but they steer clear of me due to all the garlic, atm.

AzuraGrace Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 Starts off as a blast of honey with a streak of dirty. After sitting for a bit it becomes powdery. For its final act it settles into sweaty fruit. It's a lot like cops to me with selfies. Euphoric and sparkling.? Paired with A Touch of Cerise it changes it to ripe fruit that's been warmed by the sun and topped with a dusting of sugar.? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beccah Posted October 4, 2016 Author Share Posted October 4, 2016 I forgot how powerful Aja is. I had some on when I went to hang w/ my best guy friend (of 17 yrs).

I had completely forgotten that I had it on before I went to hang out with him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snoopyace Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 Ahahahaha! Gotta be careful with Aja. She doesn't mess around! Aja hits me harder (but in a slightly different way) than EoW does. I've also noticed that it affects my bride quite a bit. When I wear something boosted with a bit of EoW she gets a bit more interested and romantic with me. With Aja, she starts acting more jealous, like she thinks I've been up to something even though I have been VERY upfront about my phero/copulin use. It's interesting how the Aja really gets her jealous (which leads to her feeling the need to show me why she is the only woman I need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
