I spent a couple of days horsing around with Instant Shine, Instant Honesty, and Instant Openness, always topping off with some A314 and a cover (either Rochas Man or Pheros, the latter of which is as good as I remember it).
Frankly, the greatest effect was on me, as I was in a chatty, smiley mood the whole time, and my co-workers spewed their guts about all kinds of XXX-rated goings-on behind their wives’ backs. That was worth the purchase price alone.
But the real kicker was Turn Up The Heat. I wore some to a work dinner (with 3 sprays of IH and 2 sprays of IShine) a couple of nights ago, which was dangerous, but it was one spray spread over two wrists, and the restaurant was populated almost exclusively by Japanese employees and clientèle, so I figured it was worth the risk. Our cute-young-thing waitress kept squeezing in behind me, her head awkwardly hovering above me whenever we ordered anything, and she always addressed me at our table. The only smiling she did was when talking to me. I paid close attention, and all other tables got was her signature frown.
So I Turned Up The Heat again this morning for a brunch at a spot that employs really-hot-young-thing waitresses. Coincidentally, I instantly fell in love with a raven-haired beauty straight out of a Whitesnake video, complete with 80s outfit and 80s blank stare. It was my sister who pointed out that she passed our table countless times while we ate, and kept looking at me (and I was by far not the hottest guy in the room, this stomach band is too new to have worked its magic yet).
Alas, Turn Up The Heat alone does nothing for my mood, so now it is time to start combining it with one or more of the other elixirs to see how I can get the smiles while sustaining my own.
