Location: Work

I applied some products in the morning, but I knew I was gonna have an important meeting later in the day, so I kept some products for later, shortly before that meeting. In the morning, nothing much happened, I don’t really go all out for human contacts because of the ackward situation at work. I went out to have lunch and I applied IO / IH and MX297 on top of the morning’s products in the car on my way back. I think I found myself an incredibly strong feel-good product, happiness self-effect was great and intense. Even when I was thinking about the fact I’ll lose my job in a week, I was smiling, feeling good and joking with myself about these frigging frockers. When I got my first whiff, I instantly raised my head high and very straight, I felt slighlty boozy, but so damn good. I would desbribe the effect as uplifting, like that James Brown song. It was the first time, I think, I used MX297 together with IH and IO.

When I returned to my office, a new guy I really don’t like said to the bosses’ yes-man that he could smell perfume, but he said it in a very arrogant way. Was he talking about me, maybe, maybe not, but that’s the first time I get this kind of comment. This happened like 30 minutes after the further addition of products. I mean that cuckshocker can go jerk himself off with a handful of wood screws, but I am still curious. I personally find that MX297 and IO smell stronger than say, IH or IG, but maybe it’s just my mind playing tricks on me. Was he talking about my cover scent of Encre Noire, hard to say.

I had my meeting like 30 minutes later with another department’s boss, call him R, which happens to be a guy I would like to work with, I have talked about him a few times in preceeding posts. If you remember the situation, I am being let go by my actual boss in a week. The object of this meeting was to let R know about the results of some work I happened to do for him last week. That unexpected ‘special mission’ I got. This went well, then I closed the conference room door and told him I had another subject to discuss with him. He seemed puzzled at first as to why I was closing the door. I basically informed him that I was being let go next week by my department. He looked surprised and, like everbody I’ve told this yet, does not seem to understand the heck why. The feel-good mix, plus the IG, helped me remain solid, composed and somewhat happy-go-lucky while talking about it. I told him about the job description I would see fit for myself in his department, partly a new position that does not yet exist, and partly a position that is occupied by one of my arch-enemies right now, altough that douchebag (oui, un sac de douche!) is currently on paternity leave. Knowing that scumbag, he’s a snake looking out to become the boss instead of his boss, no matter where he is, so maybe there is already some tension between those two, who knows? R was happy to see that I would like to work in his department and asked me the permission to talk to my actual boss about it. I said why not. He also asked me why I did not apply to fill that position in his department two years ago when internal applications were requested for it. I told him that in retrospect, that’s what I should have done, but I was happy with my job in the other department at that time. This had caused the other scumbag to apply then, and he was transferred in that department, which was a good thing because that snake was once my colleague in my department (Me being a calm person, I almost ripped his head off on one occasion, I mean the walls were shaking and people could hear me yell at the other end of the building)! He was so stupid that he wasn’t a threat to me there however, it was like being in competition with an amoeba… but a brown-nosing protected amoeba, which I found out later, of course. I shook R’s hand firmly and thanked him for his time. He told me he’s sad to see me go because we had a few side projects going on together and that he enjoys my performance, attitude and work ethics very much.

I am sending some job applications around in the meantime, of course… So…

I am looking for the best job interview mix, any suggestions? In a few days, I will have A314 oil, IJ, P75 (12.5 mcg), P97 (12.5 mcg) and CTTM2 added to the armoury of products that you can see below, so you can include those in your suggestions. This would be for a professional technical kind of job in a production plant, by the way.

122

I am sorry to hear about your job. From your collection I would suggest A314/IS/IH.

I think this combo would be hard to mess up. I think you should contact mobo on this one and see what he suggests.

Well good luck and I will say a prayer everything works out.

Oh I forgot to ask what is S.A Jasmine? I have also been looking into Molecule 1(ISO Super I believe) and molecule 2

123

Thanks for your support and help Justintime.

What dosage do you recommend for that mix and which points of applications, knowing my IH is 2X and IS 2X? A314 is the new mystery batch.

S.A. Jasmine stands for Swiss Arabian Jasmine.

PRODUCTS:
Ammo (2X strength) (9h30 AM)
Hedione X 3 dabs behind sideburns and behind neck (9h30 AM)
L’Air du Desert Marocain No.2 (Tauer) X 3 dabs, each side of neck and left wrist (4h00 PM)

Location: Home

I have tried yet another new cologne in my quest for cover scents. It is called l’Air du Desert Marocain No.2, by Tauer. The name is french for ‘Air of the Moroccan Desert’. The bottle, is well… artsy kitschy for my taste, think of a blue pentagon wearing Abe Lincoln’s hat… Upon application, the fragrance is almost unbearable to toxic. I get notes of coal tar, terpene, turpentine and a spice explosion. This is very excessively pungent and chemical until drydown. I got the palate freezing effect instantly. Almost like sniffing camphor, chloroform or ether. When the toxic chemical spill effect disappears, you are left with a middle-eastern spice market kind of aura, I’m thinking strong caraway or cumin. After drydown, a strong note of freshly-cut cedar comes through, almost like those cedar “soap-on-a-rope” from days of old, and strong, very raw and pungent vetiver is omnipresent. A hint of synthetic ambergris makes nothing to make the perfume softer, that note is interesting but a bit overbearing when combined with the other components.

After 1 hour, the etheric nature of the fragrance remains, the cedar too and a strong note of leather comes out of nowhere. A faint unsweet tone of vanilla is also perceptible. But this is nowhere sweet like Eau des Baux. Luckily, the tar and turpentine notes are long gone by that time. Spice notes get also weaker after like 3 hours. There is a light smell of mold somewhere in there: go to your local public library, pick up the oldest looking book you can find on the shelves, open it up and sniff a page, I get a hint of that, I am not sure if that Dead Sea Scrolls note was intended by the perfumer, but it could add an Indiana Jones’ office dimension to the psyche of this fragrance for some people. After 5-6 hours, most notes are gone except the vetiver, the light unsweet vanilla and the camphor notes, although much lighter, all this with an earthy aftertaste, or it could be the desert sand, lol. After 8 hours, only light vetiver and dying camphor are left.

Due to the etheric effect of the fragrance, you will get the dry mouth syndrome, I guess that goes with the whole desert theme. Keep some water at hand, because you will be thirsty. This thirstiness is chemically induced, I swear there’s no placebo effect there. It does not only make you thirsty, it dries up your nose as well as the back of your throat. One thing sure, it cleans up your sinuses like Vicks Vaporub. I never breathed that easily in years.

The scent in manly, machomachoman as hell, no question about that, the question is, do I enjoy it? I honestly don’t know. An efficient cover scent? Heck yes, this will cover anything, probably even a garlic breath! The sillage? Incredible. But do I want to be the walking forest / spice market / tar pit / etcetera? Will it attract ladies? Not sure. I fail to see in which setting this fragrance would be right for me. Definitely never at work. It’s at no cost a clubbing fragrance. In bed, man, you’d have to apply this an hour in advance or else the pretty poor girl would choke. I would rate this fragrance as austere, I think that’s a word in english too, if not, let’s say, bloody serious, “no fun”.

I would be open to try ADDM again on its own, in public, just to see the effects on people. I will definitely try and layer ADDM it with Encre Noire, this will would add good sweetness and darkness to this sunny desert fragrance. I would adjust the ratio so as to have more EN than ADDM of course so as not to make it overbearing, the stuff is strong. This is my first try of a Tauer product and I am not seduced.

125

IH I would wear this one on your elbow or wrists o it effects them more than you.

IS I like to wear in my hair but on the neck might be OK. I wear on the neck when I want a confidence mood boost so it may go well on your neck.

A314 you could try on wrists or elbows so it effects your target more. I usually wear on that little piece of skin in front of the ear and smear it down my jawline for self effects. That could work well for you to so you are confident.

So I think the IS on your neck with the A314 on that piece of skin smeared down the jawline might go well so you are confident and should go well.

The IH you definitely want to hit the interviewer with it from wrists or elbow.

126

Thanks Just for the great advice.

One stupid question however. I will be wearing a long-sleeved shirt for the interview, of course, so wearing the product on elbow or arm, under the sleeve adjusted tight around my wrists, will it diffuse enough?

Also, any hint on the quantity of each product I should use and how many drops of A314 (new) I should apply? I would usually experiment myself, but I’ll have very little time between the moment my order comes in and my actual first interview, so some advice on this would be appreciated, altough I understand no one has a crystal ball :wink:.

127

A314 I would try 2 drops if it is the Rev32 if it is one of the other 2 from what I see 3 drops works well I don’t have those yet.

IH you could try putting on the wrists or back of hand might be OK. If not the neck area would have to do. I would think a half spray to behind each hand might be ok. You might be able to do a full spray. I see the IH and IS are 2X. The IH when combined with A314 at 2 sprays of regular goes a long way.

IS if you have to wear the IH on your neck you could move this to your hair. IS washes out easy later on. If you can wear on your neck I would think 3 half sprays 1 left 1 right and 1 throat would work good. I just wouldn’t go over 2 prays total because it is 2X.

128

Hooray, can’t believe my order actually arrived! Delivery was lightning fast on DHL side between the pickup and my door. Order preparation took forever this time on AD side, but I am confident this was exceptional.

My signature was updated with my new products: A314 (Royale V1, batch 4I177211), IJ, CTTM, P75 (12.5 mcg), P97 (12.5 mcg) and TAC (5mcg version). I am starting on A314 solo tomorrow morning. First try ever.

129

I had inquired with support and with A314 being released, back orders filled etc everything was tied up. I waited a good bit for my first of the few lot that I received, but it all sorted out. That was the longest it had taken and I do agree, exceptional. The support staff DEEA and Makaelia were fantastic as always.

Hey where did you get your SA Jasmine from? I have Hedione from the Perfumer’s Apprentice, good stuff!!

130

Yes, I am aware of the special problems that occured, it wasn’t a vent or a rant, more of a “yeeeeees finally!!!”, lol.

Regarding S.A. Jasmine, I’ll answer you through PM, my dear.

PRODUCTS:
A314 (Royale V1, batch 4I177211) X 2 drops, one to each jaw line (7h30AM)

Location: Work and home

First impression of A314 solo try, I took a sniff from the cap to evaluate the scent. I am not getting sandalwood yet. I get some volatile note giving me a light palate freezing effect. I used to burn tons of sandalwood incense a few years ago, and I didn’t get that at first. It did smell a bit soapy as I read before, not horrible, but this could use a cover scent, I think. There is a hint of menthol also. However, after the drydown, the scent might resemble sandalwood, but it’s quite faint and my nose seems saturated by the initial burst.

I felt a boost of confidence after the application. Nothing like “I am the king of the world” but still, a nice feeling. I did not have lots of human contacts on that, it was my second-to-last work day at this place and I am trying to close as much things as I can. In the afternoon, I had an impromptu meeting with male coworker F and female coworker E. I wanted to present them some observations I made in the morning after a visit to a supplier. They listened with interest and took notes of my recommendations. Ms. E is usually very hard to convince and she’ll argue til the next day that we are already doing things right. It did not happen this time. I took the time to tell her about the fact I was being let go. Mr. F already knows about this. She, like most people, couldn’t believe it. Altough our meeting was over, we all chatted until the end of the shift.

At home, my girlfriend was acting different than usual. Even in the middle of the supper routine with the kids, she would stare at me, taking poses and smiling. I know this doesn’t count as a hit (lol), but I rarely get this until later in the evening.

I will definitely try A314 again. Does it live up to the legend and expectations? Not yet, but it’s a bit early to judge.

132

I think when you got home that was a hit a subtle as it may have been. Very nice report.

This was my last day at work.

Great news since there are a few bastages I will never have to see again…

But sad news to have to say goodbye to lots of great people and to a job I did enjoy very much, apart from the presence of the aforementionned snakes.

I tend to get emotional in such circumstances and this was no exception. It was long hard day in which I tried to meet everyone and talk a bit. This shows me that mones are no magical potions. In certain situations, they prove almost useless. I mean, Instant Shine won’t make everyone laugh at your best friend’s funeral. That’s what I mean. I must admit it was the second time around I ever used A314, and maybe the mix or dosages I chose were a bit out of whack, but I was looking for solidity, alpha vibe softened by TAC, IS effect on me and happiness in others. Many persons who did not know until then that I was leaving, and others who knew already, were very sad to see me go and did not understand why. They all had good words for me, but their sadness was contagious. I was so looking forward to all of it being over. Sadly, I don’t have results to bring, like I said, no magical potions…

I moved on and I continued testing however since I had a job interview the next day :slight_smile: (results coming soon).

The silver lining: Conjurator’s journal

Chin up Conjurator!!!

I have a strong feeling you had to let go of this position which opens you up for something that suites you all the better. Those people will remember you and they will speak amazingly well of you for your next position.

When one door closes, another one…usually better looking and better suited opens up.

like the “Best Exotic Marigold Hotel” quote…Everything will be alright in the end, and if it isn’t, it is not the end!" :slight_smile:

…as for reports, I’m rather behind myself…I’ll get to writing…

Location: Job interview, house, daycare

I am finally picking up the sandalwood out of A314, only after the drydown though.

I had a job interview yesterday for what I would not hesitate to call “the dream job”. This was supposed to be my last work day at the other place, but I took a day of vacation and finished the day before. I arrived 5 minutes before time at the security guard’s desk. He gave me some papers to fill up and invited me to sit in the waiting room until the interview persons were ready. I filled up the paper and I was bloody calm and composed, with a light happy-go-lucky vibe. I cracked one or two jokes with the guard.

I must credit our colleague Justintime for his mix suggestion on this interview, altough I took some liberties on the dosage! I couldn’t resist adding hedione also, the HR person who had called me on the phone to schedule the interview was a young lady with a yummy yum yum teeny voice.

After 10 minutes, the security guard showed me the way to the interview room. I was greeted by a man in his 40s, the HR director and man in his late 50s, the plant director. There was no yummy-voiced HR girl to be seen, sadly, she must have been only an intern or something. I shook their hands, firmly establishing good eye contact, and I repeated each name aloud. I took off my jacket and I sat on the chair. I was maybe 3 feet away from both men around a table. I made sure to speak with my hands a lot while avoid any contact between my hands and my face (because of the IH). I could not wear the IH near my elbows, as I usually do, because I was wearing a long-sleeved shirt.

It was a very informal type on interview. They were basically making me talk all the time, with some subquestions on their part. I so much fit the profile they are looking for, it’s almost ridiculous for me to not already be working there. I am not the only candidate, but I am confident. The HR guy was smiling a lot, talking with energy and seemed like an all-around good guy to have a beer with. The plant director was more of the poker face / wooden face type of guy, but he totally failed to intimidate me, if that was his goal. Every answer I gave was solid and spot on. I couldn’t stop finding new reasons to make me more interesting of a candidate for the job that they offer. Each answer came naturally, with authenticity in my voice. To some answers, they were surprised by the honesty, some candidate might have wanted to BS on those. I don’t take it as an IH after-effect though, I’m that type of straight-to-the-point guy, that’s it :slight_smile:. Each time I answered something, the poker guy would frown, lower his eyebrows and listen with attention giving me the soul-scanning look while remaining bloody serious. He tried to hide it, but he was impressed. The other guy was more likely to show his interest.

I didn’t really get any unwanted IH effect, I think, but I definitely got the Shine and A314 effects. When I told them how I see teamwork and what type of leadership I am capable of, they seemed pleaseantly surprised. Definitely not the answer they usually hear, but it came through as refreshing. The interview lasted for… one hour and half. They had scheduled 45 minutes per person. When they realized what time it was, they had to cut short, but the HR guy said it was worth it. I shook their hands and confirmed my interest for the job. On my way out, while I was walking back to the security office, the ‘next candidate’ was coming in. He was wearing a black leather coat rock-concert style (oooof). Bad decision! Good for me, though. Since the interviewers were well dressed… When in Rome, don’t act a frigging Spartan! And this is a professional type of job, for Chrysler’s sake, you’re not out to see Voivod! I’ll keep my fingers crossed, but I was feeling bloody confident. Bryan Adam’s Cloud No. 9 was on the car radio, usually not my type of a song, but I was signing along, just happy to see the sun shine so bright! I am feeling much better than the day before.

After that, something went haywire…

I went to get the boys at the daycare at the end of the afternoon and I arrived right at the moment when they were getting all the older kids ready to go outside with winter clothes and all. It was like being caged inside a box full of Minions, yes, the yellow ones. My older boy was there, so I picked him up right away. I went upstairs to get my younger boy also. When I came back down, they were already preparing a class of younger ones as well, and the older ones were still getting ready. It was like being trapped in box full of Bad Minions, this time, yes, the purple ones! I suddenly started to feel very irritated. There was a 4 y.o. screaming his lungs out and disrespecting the woman in charge. He was mimicking the bacon & eggs in the frying pan and screaming, screaming, screaming loud, hysterically. I look angrily at that boy while managing to put the winter clothes on my young one. I just needed to get out. NOW! I was feeling like David Banner getting the white eyes! I took the boys back home and I hit the road for an hour and a half drive. I was so aggressive on the road as opposed to being so calm in the first part of the day during my interview. But from that point, I would have ripped the head of anyone standing in my way. This asocial aggressive feeling lasted for at least fourty minutes. Is this some kind of delayed effect due to the fact it’s an oil and not a spray of A314? Is it a sign of A314 OD? Can it be a cumulative effect of the previous days doses (I showered each day and thouroughly cleaned application points). Why haven’t I got this effect before at same dosage (see post #130)?

After that, something wonderful happened…

Finally, it all morphed into something different, the anger disappeared and was replaced with a crazy confidence in the future and pure WORKABLE focus (totally unlike P13…, if you remember my report on that). I was driving and thinking about what I’ll need to achieve in the job I don’t yet have, in which order I would perform each step, which new ideas I would bring into the place. I would call this the “hit-by-a-muse” phase. I never got this effect before using A314. Altough post #132 doesn’t really count due to the special sad circumstances, post #130 was nowhere near that either. That’s pure potency, but I must try and reproduce it first. If I OD’ed (see preceeding paragraph), is there also a positive effect to the OD? Is it possible that after three days, the A314 finally kicked in inside me? Did my body suddenly understood those molecules? In this phase, I really felt like the fricking king of the world ready to become the boss in two years time! I was also very concentrated on the road, with focus at full throttle on the vehicules around me and acute reflexes.

Please note that I did not add any mones at anytime. I was still running on my morning application.

When I came back home, much later in the evening, I was easily disturbed by the kids, and relatively impatient. Not agressive. Not with my kids: never. But short of temper, and eager for them to go to bed, let’s say.

This means I still have to tame the A314 beast. There is some definite potential in this product but I still have to reproduce those results. I am not crazy about the irritability/impatience phase though, it was temporary, but potentially problematic .

I find after a few hours, the musky scent of A314 seems to come through, this might be one of the cons. I’ll confirm this in a next solo try. Also, I never came across the “akuto” scent yet, I was looking forward to discover it with A314, but alas, I’ll have to try another occasion.

Please feel free to share thoughts or theories.

136

Do you think the Hedion could have put this into overdrive?

I’ve been testing mixes then adding Hedione to give them some extra Sillage and legs. It may be that as the day wore on and you were out of your interview you started to move around a bit more, confined space (car before school… Building up to intense fight or flight reaction)…bad hit…just a theory.

I’d say try the combo again, leave the Hedione out and (maybe just stay home for the test lol :slight_smile:)

I am no chemist… Just wondering like you are.

137

That’s not crazy at all, Lillian :slight_smile:. I got the good, the ugly and the wonderful. I just hope the good and wonderful are possible without the bad. I’ll have to experience more. It would be the first time hedione gives me something bad, but it’s not at all impossible since I’m only beggining to test A314.

138

Not saying Hedione=bad…just too much in this case. Keep in mind I don’t have any experience with A314 yet.

The way I think about it, it’s one of the only products that is made to an oil for slow release…Hedione is also an oil and in my experience boosts the outcome of whatever mone I’ve tested. I usually add it with something I’ve successfully tested to get just a little more.

My theory is while you were in the car you got a good buildup going of A314, in the school (irritation & bedlam) you probably got a fair bit of adrenaline going…after that…wonderful focus. You see clearly, think clearly…adrenaline still kind of high but dissipating, having been released from the “stressor” (children’s school)

Just some thoughts…

139

Conjurator, I think your reaction was very normal when you picked up your boys. When I use A314, IG, or P75, I become all business, no nonsense. The way I see it, you encountered a situation that was beyond your control and seemed very childish. It’s sometimes difficult to be compassionate when you’re in executive mode. Consider your statement, “There was a 4 y.o. screaming his lungs out and disrespecting the woman in charge.” If I had on A314 and had been in that situation, you bet I’ll be ready to rip off anyone’s head who stood in my way. That’s how I sometimes feel when I wear status mones. No amount of IShine or IO can save me. Apparently, you too!

It’s also no surprise that you felt better driving alone and thinking about your potential next job. Problem solving and goal setting is much better suited for A314. So I think your dosage was appropriate for the intended goal - impress the managers at the job interview. I would think that A314 isn’t appropriate when managing children.

Hope you get the job!

140

Thanks HankBuddy. Like Spock would say, this is highly logical! And full of promises.

I often get the kids to daycare in the morning, but it’s almost never me who goes in the afternoon to take them back. I’m not used to such acoustic assaults, lol. Normal routine will resume once I get the job, hehe.
