It's a Tea party!

Field Reports & Anecdotal Experience Women's Journals

Day started out great, and then all went to hell. I lost something very valuable to me, and fact of the matter is, I’m probably not getting it back.

I said I’d test it the next time I got upset. One spray of IFM to my wrists and dabbed to chin and upper lip, but not much in the way of self-effects. I was about to cry when I applied, as I had been for a few hours, and went from that to aggravated and sullen. I slept poorly when I tried to sleep it off. Very restless. I didn’t expect it to work too well in the first place, as I’m actually very torn up about it. Other people could get hurt because of my idiocy and absence of mind.

On a side note, I’ve lost weight since I started using pheromones. About five pounds, which is noticeable on me, as I’m only 5’4" and now less than 120lbs. Most of my fat is in my butt. I have stick arms and a little waist. Damn it, I’ve been trying to gain. I understood it better after I came home and went straight for the kitchen to eat myself happy. I’m indulging less because I’m in a better mood lately.

Instant Shine causes a “crash” for me. After the initial effects wear off, I go from energetic to exhausted. It’s like caffeine or sugar, except you annoy others less.

Well, Panda Bear is back :slight_smile: He’s been around for the last three days, and I’ve been wearing IHx2 and ISto-gox2 for two out of three days. I think he prefers me in MX135. He speaks to me differently than he does the others (who, granted, are all guys), but I noticed less attentiveness and touchiness. There was some, but not as much.

Yesterday, I wore just one more spray of IHx2, and he definitely responded to the extra Honesty. I found out a few things, but it quickly escalated to TMI, which I don’t think would have happened if I had been wearing MX135. I’ve worn IHx10 around him with up to four or five sprays of MX135, and he had talked to me like a guy would talk to a girl, not like a guy would talk to a guy.

The same day, I had a really lengthy discussion about perfumes with one female friend/acquaintance. We started really getting into it. She’s very tomboyish, and I would have never expected her to be so into something so girly :stuck_out_tongue: so that was interesting. Also, can I just say that I don’t like any VS fragrances at all? Meh.

64

lol–that is so funny because I am tom-boyish too but I loveeeee perfume, purses and shoes; particularly stilettos…Whats even funnier is I rarely wear the shoes or carry the purses, I think I’m confused :confused: lol but I almost always wear perfume. That started when I was like 5 years old and drenched myself in one of my mom’s bottles of Beautiful.

65

Heh, I can definitely relate. Every once in a while I go crazy and buy a bunch of girly things, like shoes and dresses. I wear the high-heels once and realize once more why I hate the little bastards. “Oh yeah. The excruciating pain. I remember now.” I have 3 year old dresses in my closet that I haven’t worn once :o

I’m basically a boy with tits, so I don’t know why I let myself do it. My younger sister can shop my parents’ life’s savings away in an hour flat, and I still have stuff I wore when I was her age (early high school). I went to the mall in a pair of jeans with an enormous 8-inch rip in the seat just today. I’m an authentic dirt bag :stuck_out_tongue: At least I smell expensive :roll_eyes:

For a while, I was against wearing perfume. I liked smelling like myself. Apparently I don’t stink, at least… Cheshire was saying I smell like these synthetic lavender dryer sheets his friend had. LOL, he bought a box so his clothes will all smell like me, and then he started asking about Pink Sugar, which I assaulted him with the last time I saw him. Hahaha, what a creep. He’s lucky I love his stinkin’ guts :stuck_out_tongue:

66

Ha-ha I think you are my long lost twin–I do the exact same thing, I have dresses and skirts in my closet right now with the tags still on them. My mom says that I’m an anatomically incorrect boy. She even got my chromosomes check to make sure I was double x–no lie. Being “girly” takes extra effort and I’m too lazy for all the primping. I’ma jeans and sweat shirt type of gal although I am tryin to break myself from that. Operative word being try :smiley:

67

Well being girly is quite a bit of work… nails (fingers and toes), hair, eyebrows, makeup, clothes, shoes, attitude… psh. It’s so much easier to go around like a guy. I mean, they have to deal with us, which I think is a pretty equivalent exchange for the menstruation and primping :stuck_out_tongue: but… well you know.
Your mother seriously did that? Wow, that wouldn’t have made me feel awful at all sarcasm
I like being “one of the guys,” but it’s hardest when you’re looking for a relationship… the ones that end up being attracted to me are usually just after someone who’s low maintenance that can take a “joke” (AKA scathing insult).

68

Ahh yes, love mommy dearest to death for insisting on that test lol I like being one of the guys too as they tend to be more relaxed around me…But its kinda to close for comfort at times as no holds are barred when it comes to them discussing females. And I too attract the guys lookin for a low maintaince chick only for them to realize that they’d rather have a miss priss with my personality. Strange I tell ya…

69

I have been reading the interchange between you and I have to say I wish you both lived a lot closer. I have a female friend who would probably be your triplet. Unfortunately she also lives very distant to me. She was probably one of the best people I have ever met and is still a love of my life. She has been my best friend since I was 5 years old. I would marry her in a heartbeat if I could.

Aw, that’s a very sweet story… it’s amazing how strongly someone can ensnare us, isn’t it? I’m a little afraid of love; it’s definitely a double-edged sword sort of thing. Except… without violence… more or less.
I know a lot of girls who are basically “anatomically incorrect boys.” Many of them are on the nerdier side and play video games. We don’t attract a lot of attention while out and about because we don’t look “clean cut,” but yes… they are some great people, and I’m very happy to know them. Most are genuinely pretty, but it’s a raw beauty… they are overlooked in the same way an unpolished diamond is, I’d suppose. Potentially breathtaking once you take the time to examine a bit further, but paling visually to someone of equal value who’s cut and set.
You gotta be careful though. There’s a big difference between someone who neglects herself because of poor self-esteem, and someone who just doesn’t think primping herself is time well spent. Take a care.
I’ve read a few of your other posts, and you seem like a very selfless, generous guy. It’s just a matter of finding someone who sees and appreciates it, whether they paint their nails or not :roll_eyes: :stuck_out_tongue:

RAWR!
So, since last I reported, I’ve come upon a few more pheromone products… my stash now consists of:

Instant Honesty x2
Instant Shine x2
(and a normal-strength TOGO)
Instant Sexiness TOGO
Instant Female Magic TOGO
Turn Up the Heat TOGO
MX135
–and from Love Potions:
Cuddle Bunny scented
Super Sexy for women scented
Synchronicity

:smiley: That’s exciting. I feel like I’m building up my own arsenal.

Cuddle Bunny wet is really amazing. I thought it wouldn’t be my cup of tea, and I’d prefer to cover it up, but it really is superb. Unfortunately, it dries down very light…

Super Sexy is delicious. It smells like overly sweet, yet spicy maple syrup on me. Very edible with great throw.

I’ve tried SS and CB only once each. I’ll report on them all later :stuck_out_tongue:

72

Hmmm I heard Tater likes maple syrup with biscuits…

Lately I’ve been experimenting with just using a single drop of pheros on my upper lip for self effects. Shine is like a shot of caffeine, so I like it for this… I don’t spray pheros in the middle of the day, because the smell would be too overpowering for those around me during dry down; if I was in a different environment, it wouldn’t matter so much. If I don’t reapply Shine though, I crash… I’ve fallen asleep in the middle of the day half the times I’ve used it. While I’m driving, I drift towards the other lane without realizing. LOL not good…

What I’m really interested in trying is Turn Up the Heat applied in the same way (a drop or two to the upper lip, as most ladies use it), not for me, but for the guy I’ll be smooching :o Maybe it’ll effect him as well, but only once he gets close? That’s my theory anyway. Don’t wanna be giving out aggressive vibes in the meantime…

I’ve gotten over the ditziness I first experienced with MX135, so that’s great, because I really love the feel of it. I don’t so much get the superstar thing from it though. It’s definitely upbeat, but I feel like a southern belle… more ladylike, sweeter, and received accordingly :stuck_out_tongue: My voice is softer, my mannerisms are more girlish, and guys light up to see they made me laugh.

Unfortunately I keep switching between liking and hating the chocolatini. It’s no good for warm weather, not only because it’s totally overbearing, but because it’s more of a fall/winter fragrance by nature. Same with most other scents I like… I’m hoping Pink Sugar and LP perfumes will be able to serve as my spring/summer scents.

I’ve been using Shine for the past few days, and I really do love it. I’m using 2-3 times as much as I did while testing from the to-go sizes, and man… I love laughing, and I laugh too much already, but this stuff just sends me into fits :smiley:

I was running very late this morning, and did not have a chance to blow-dry my unruly hair, so while I weighed it down with enough product that it didn’t really frizz, my curls were sticking up in all sorts of directions. I looked somewhat ridiculous, but no one seemed to think so… I actually got compliments for some unfathomable reason.
I wore something like ISx4 and MX135x2, all to the chest and spread with wrists.

Also, I should probably start signing the reps I give… All but one I’ve gotten so far have had names attached :roll_eyes:

74

He might like it, but I think he’d be more upset that it doesn’t taste quite the same… :smiley: :roll_eyes: Better stick to the real stuff :stuck_out_tongue:

75

Don’t know if Tater feels the same way about hotcakes… maybe he would like Bath & Body’s Hotcakes lipcolor/gloss on some of his female friends. It really smells like a stack of hotcakes with butter and syrup. Yum! Tastes lightly like it, too. Pheros AND foody lips??? Wow!!

Tealeaves - My first 2 bottles of MX135 had a wonderful chocolatey smell and I couldn’t figure out why people were saying they didn’t like it. Well, I just started using my newest bottle and it SMELLS COMPLETELY DIFFERENT!!! Now it smells like what was being described in other posts… choco-amaretto-y. I don’t like it as much as the other smell. LOVED the other smell!!! I hope Jasmin sees this and can tell us what changed. :o Maybe there can be a change in the chocolatini scent or a new chocolate scent offered.:smiley:

Homage to MX135

Hi Twin :slight_smile:

I do the same thing with my IShine, I figured since I have to wash my hands a million times a day, applying it to the wrists was jus a waste of product. I use Ishine more so for the self effects then to effect others so I spray my face with a lil extra dab under the nose and of course chest shots. I don’t crash when it wears off tho, I tend to mellow out and fall back into myself.

I agree the MX135 scent is a little to heavy. I used some pink sugar oil and sprayed some cotton candy fantasy body spray I got at family dollar (for a dollar heh) That combo lightens it up significantly, its not so over powering. Could definitely be a spring time scent–summer, I’m not so sure as I like the more cleanier and lighter scents for summer time. I’m still working my way thro the ditsy effects. Its not so much pronounced but its there, I feel like I’m “slow” but the Ishine allows me to laugh at myself so its win-win lol

77

I don’t know. I probably crash because I never sleep anymore. These past few weeks, I’ve been getting from 2-5 hours of sleep per night… I sleep on the weekends. Hehe.

I’ve just stopped applying to my wrists altogether. When I spray to my chest, I usually spread it around with my wrists, but that’s it. I don’t notice anything significant from wrist application, but I’m usually wearing long sleeves anyway.

Hm, you mean Pink Sugar couldn’t work as a summer scent? Yeah, I don’t know. It’s really strong and all that, but I just like it so much :roll_eyes: I’m more worried about the scent getting musty, like with chocolatini. If I heat up even marginally while wearing MX135, people five yards away are sniffing the air. The throw is insane.

For summer, I like Scandalous Intentions from LP so far. It has a foody undertone, which I always prefer in a perfume, but it’s floral and lighter… Oh, and can’t forget Cuddle Bunny. Gawd that stuff smells good :smiley: I also ordered Zzzap!, which has peppermint and cucumber and other refreshing things, in anticipation of the hot days to come.

Yeah, I definitely like Shine and MX135 together… I get more of that “superstar” feeling people keep mentioning :cool: MX135 alone, for me, is straight-up feminine, which is pretty much what I wanted out of pheromones. I just wish I wasn’t restricted to the chocolatini…

78

OOOH…Puhleeeze…stop saying HOTCAKES!!!

79

Why Bella? Don’t you like the word HOTCAKES? Do you have something against HOTCAKES? Or are you just allergic to HOTCAKES? :stuck_out_tongue: :smiley: :smiley:

Sorry - couldn’t resist!!:roll_eyes:

80

Alright you guys, enough with the hotcakes :stuck_out_tongue: You’re making me hungry!

Update! I finally got some EoW… or EW, rather :roll_eyes:
I was all prepared for the stink of my life, but it didn’t smell too awful in the bottle… so I was like, alright cool, and tried a little half-drop applied to my wrists. Spread it around a bit…
Oh god :open_mouth:
I had to smother it TWICE with Pink Sugar before the funk went away.

UGH

At least I won’t need that much… The bottle is pretty tiny, but I’m young and have never been on BCP.

In all honesty, I don’t need this stuff at all. I don’t plan on getting intimate with anyone anytime soon… Just consider me a mad scientist. I like messing with things :smiley: So I’ll be testing it over the next few weeks.

With the EW, I got ten Scent of Eros For Women gel packets, two Perception gel packets, and two Edge For Women gel packets.

Cuddle Bunny is strange. It smells great, so I’m getting a big bottle regardless, but I don’t know how the pheromones work for me here.

I’m afraid of IS/A and Super Sexy from LP. Let’s just say I like the soft effects of MX135 better :roll_eyes: I’m less vicious :stuck_out_tongue:

Also, I kinda gave up on the EST. I have found “other places” that would sell it, but… well I think my collection is extensive enough for right now. I’m still kinda new to all of this after all :smiley:

81

Ah, I kept forgetting to report…

Okay, so it has been kinda hot this past week, and my room doesn’t get a lot of air circulation, so it will sometimes be 10 degrees hotter in my room than outside (plus all sorts of nasty humidity). I’d been leaving the window open and the ceiling fan on. During this time, I had slept awfully, whether the window was open or not, and whether the fan was on or not. On the worst night, I just couldn’t fall asleep for the life of me. I got an hour half-awareness (semi-sleep?) before waking up and lying in bed for another three hours, waiting for the light of day. It was odd, as this hasn’t happened in months, but I wrote it off as being the heat… until this continued happening around low 70s temp range.

The other night, before going to bed, I had applied Cuddle Bunny to the tops of my hands, and Synchronicity to my wrists, just to enjoy the perfume. At first, while laying in bed, I had my hands under the covers away from my face for about 20 minutes. I was as jumpy and paranoid as I used to be. Common thoughts were “what was that noise?” and images of my spooks coming up to me etc. On a scale from 1-10, content to terrified, I was an average of about 7. Then I had Cuddle Bunny to my nose for about a half hour or so with almost the same feelings throughout, but I was only sniffing the CB for the lovely smell at the time. Wondering on the influence of pheromones, I shifted my hands so that my wrists were to my nose (I like the scent of Synchro, but I’m not exactly crazy about it), and definitely noticed a difference. Content to terrified, I was an average of 4.5 I’d say. I noticed a significant decrease in negative thoughts, and felt like I was being silly for not relaxing.

As I was drifting to sleep, I felt a sudden jolt of panic when a bird or a cat outside made a steady, nonthreatening noise. When I snapped my eyes open, I realized my nose was to the tops of my hands again. Holding your wrists to your nose as you sleep isn’t comfortable, and I had shifted. Once I huffed my wrists for a while, I was able to drift off for good, and sleep well.

The next day, I sprayed my pillow with some Instant Honesty, and have been sleeping normally ever since. What I think happened was that leaving my window open and the fan on allowed the errant pheromones that have bounced off my head etc. when I spray to, for the most part, escape my room. The high heat and humidity got them into the air, and then they circulated out.

So basically, I have been sleeping like a normal human being again :stuck_out_tongue:

This didn’t exactly explain why Cuddle Bunny, which is heavy in the lovey phero EST, did almost nothing. I think it’s because EST isn’t a protective vibe. It asks for protection. Synchro has trust and respect pheros, meant to make the other person feel safe with you. Any thoughts on this?

(In short: Pheromones make me less of a weirdo :slight_smile: Comfort pheros help me sleep better, but other pheros do little in that regard.)

Also, I’ve really put a damper on my social life lately. I’m just not in the mood for other people. Sooo… that’s why I haven’t reported on that. I just need to step back and chill for a while.

No problems with cattiness or arrogance lately. I think I’ve finally learned to control my behavior… hehe. Should’ve done that a looong time ago :stuck_out_tongue: Gonna have to put a hold on MX135 until fall though… :frowning: I suppose I can use a smidgen under my nose for self-effects, but it’s too strong of a perfume for the weather at this point. Boo.
