hhoooboy… sometimes you just feel the need to experiment… this is one of my “Ferran Adria” experimental combinations that occur to me when I think of my Summer in Catalonia, exploring the Barri Gotic in all of its mysterious strangeness, then walking over to the old cathedral during mass… the swinging censers wafting out great clouds of perfumed smoke as the priest chants… some mixes are downright mystical and there’s no proper explanation for what we mean by mystical… the initiating question was, what happens when a purposive, down to business item like p106 is nested in a complex formation of feminine and communication pheromones, and a good brothy layer of -rone is in there to flesh it out (and a wee squirtlette of TAF is in there too, maybe like 15 mu for the whole tube)… so… one squirt, we’re probably looking in the 10-15 mu range of various goodies… and off to Starbux to deal with the morning crowd… who are normally obnoxiously yappy on their cells and to one another… grab my grub, settle in with the paper, let the place fill up while I read the latest infuriating scandals du jour… the Vibe of the place has gotten very quiet, very intro… almost a velvety introspective kind of quiet, not like the stunned or shut down quiet you sometimes encounter, but like a meditative quiet, the inner mousewheels have stopped squeaking, people are hanging out with their deeper selves… there is a noticeable absence of trivia and ego… even the rougher tougher guys, the undercover cops who work at the precinct station right up the street are in the flow… I’m thinking, this IS interesting stuff, it rather combines a useful level of focus with a good level of psychic integration… where the -nols left to their own devices can overexpand and diffuse consciousness, the p106+rone seems to keep the herd together, the boundaries are recognized but the right hemisphere is definitely available… next to try this on a delightful yoga teacher who, well, you know…
So everyone was drinking in the tacitus cool-aid! Crazy!
Not unlike being in a sitting meditation, Zen or thereabouts… quite contemplative in a good way… deeply present w/o being spaced or distracted ![]()
It’s actually a very interesting and unique experience. While I’ve had similar to a few people, never has my signature effected an entire StarBucks. Even when I lord over my regular places like the Flying Saucer, I like to move around and have my signature effect people that I am in the vicinity of. WOW though! How big would you say this Buckystars was sir and what in that mix do you think created such a wide berth of exposure? Where they tacitus scented with EO’s or…?
This is a small Sbux even by NYC standards… maybe 300 sq ft total ? Guessing… there’s no way I could have that impact on a normal sized store… remember you have to think in terms of cubic feet which makes a larger store vastly larger, air volume wise…
The p106 had 6% chocolatini… also had juiced it up with Montale Black Oud... which is one humdinger of a sexy sexuous fragrance, dark rose and oud…
u really like TAL and EST, don’t ya ![]()
Yeah I had a sneaking suspicion there was some OUD in there somewhere. I get amazing silage with OUD from just about anywhere. I usually get really pure stuff from overseas and make my own scents. The Montale Black Oud is well received and quite good. Personally I have not worn it, but have smelled it. Very nice.
As in regards to cubic feet you kind sir are right on, but like when have you not been? I’m intrigued if you are going to be able to replicate these results. This type of research is fascinating to me, even though myself get quite caught up in the sex-influences of mones, I think many members fail to see the implications of something like this. It’s why I harp on Ishine as the best stand-alone for instant attraction. The young guys miss it though completely.
You have to always be awake to human situation… too many times we lump things together using a word like “sex” which forces an infinity of somewhat connected, but often significantly dissimilar points of experienced reality… the more you get into direct contact with the human psyche the more complex it appears… there are some aspects that are formulaic and there are some aspects that are unique and will never be repeated in your life… as we get older and have more experience with these formulas, we can begin to improvise like a seasoned jazz musician… there are subtleties that maybe you remembered when you mixed 3 things together that brought out something in the moment or a hidden side in somebody… like I’m finding all these interesting spins off of p106 because I never had that as a major ingredient for a long time… just like i went through a p86 phase and a p96 phase, they’re on the back burner for the moment but I might wonder what would happen if I added a really authoritarian note like P80 to P86+P96… would I turn into Mussolini or Clint Eastwood… you never know where the road leads… there’s always an adventure in front of you…
Montale’s Black Oudh is one of my favorite fragrances, and I’m actually wearing it right now. I was wondering, did you physically mix the fragrance in with the pheromones, or did you simply apply over it. If it’s the former, any tips on how best to do this?
In this case it is mixed lightly… about 1 part oudh to 9 parts phero juice… a real purist would apply this precious fragrance over the phero spray… I needed a minor disguise as some of the phero notes do have a noticeable signature
