I'll do 2 sprays and cover with Cool Water or Fierce. I'll report back here what I see. If it works, it doesn't really matter that I think it stinks.

Just wanted to make sure you got the PM I sent regarding a message from Paradise 7.

Jaycee, I hope you read that part of Snoopy's response. It's quite accurate about DG. It's more of an intimate getting to know someone mix. If you're expecting instant hot sexual attraction, you may not get it with DG.

Thanks for the reminder Tisha...That's golden advice for clearing your sense of smell.

Hey Renny (and Tisha!) I'm not sure why everyone is saying that I'm name calling, unless you're referring to the word "Dude." If that's the issue, I apologize. If that's NOT it, please me me know...

I get that he's offering his "review," I just question some of the narrative. Silly Kitty's post is a partial indicator (to me, at least) that not everything he's stated is quite as he's painted it. When I read a review I can't help but take into account the author's honesty as a whole.

I'd like to point out that it is also generally useful that a reviewer actually understand the intent of the product before writing a review. Of course, I realize that won't stop people from writing their reviews, but it would come in handy!

I am annoyed that he flings opinions (and assumptions) as facts and that's totally acceptable for a review here. Jaycee wrote over and over that DG was "copulins, pure copulins" as fact. He didn't say anything like "sure feels like pure copulins to me." In reality, pure copulins is not something anyone would sell to spray directly on the skin, I would think...

It would be great if you would consider that there be guidelines for reviews regarding the separation of facts and opinions. But that's just humble my o...

I'm using my Pendragon scented Down, Girl! today at a relatives house and it has been a sanity saver. Normally these particular female relatives are prone to histrionics; will find the cloud in any silver lining, etc. Basically they have undiagnosed forms of depression (yeah, been trying for years to get them the right kind of help but they don't want it).

With Down, Girl! they still complain but they are more matter of fact and not so 'the world is ending'. They may not be downright cheerful but they are much less difficult to be around. I've also noticed more of a lets all do this together mentality from Down, Girl!. I like how instead of them sitting and complaining about what they need to do, everyone pitches in while complaining. Hey, at least they are doing something! :shy: For the record I've worn this around them several times now and haven't noticed any rebound effect from it. When I leave they go back to their normal way of being. Some medicines and other compounds can make a person with depression issues swing from pretty happy to suicidal when they are removed from the medicine, etc. This doesn't seem to have that affect (I was worried about it so I have been very careful).

Oh, I could sort of vaguely smell the copulins through the Pendragon but only because I knew what to smell for. Disappeared within 5 minutes into the cologne scent. I honestly feel that if I didn't know what I was smelling, I'd never have noticed.

I apologized to Diane earlier today for this overly harsh and cruel review. I sent back the money that she refunded to me and I will be keeping the 2 bottles and 1 sample.

I told her that I didn't think that her pheromones are as bad as I said in this review and that I regret using the words I used. I will try these again and post another review.

She asked me to fully retract this review and so that is what I'm doing here.

My bad Robby, I was not accusing you of anything...I was just saying hello and making a wry comment to lighten the mood. It was confusing in hindsight. You have every right to question a fellow members expertise or experience. That's really the only way to seperate wheat from chaff. Someone who knows their stuff isn't going to balk at some tough questions.

When I see an angry post (you did say you were pissed), I try to throw a little oil on the water to keep things from boiling over. I probably should've spent a bit more time thinking before I posted.

Thanks for the clarification, Renny! Pissed was probably too strong a word from me, I was more like annoyed. I noticed a few things that I'd wished I'd stated more clearly myself, such as DG smelling only like feet, I did notice that it also has some of the same characteristics as Snoop and Tezza23 mentioned.

I'll try to slow down before I post.

Let's get back on topic...

For me, I feel that women are overall just generally friendlier when I'm wearing Down Girl. The only time I got the opposite reaction was when I wore Wolf and DG together. That was a rough day. But, I had two separate occasions this week when women who were strangers gave me free stuff for no apparent reason. In both instances the women were pretty hot and there were plenty of other men they could have picked. Both times I was wearing DG and Men at Play.

A couple of weeks ago, the mail had come and with it, my order from Diane. She sent a small soap sample of DG and something called Smiles. I could smell the scent of the soaps strongly through the plastic bag. I stuck the small baggy in my pocket and headed to the store. I was looking at some salsa when a woman walked up to me and asked if I'd ever tried the salsa I was looking at. I said I hadn't, which was why I was standing there trying to make up my mind. She picked up two jars of salsa, shoved one into my hands and said in a way that shocked me "Let's be naughty together!" I blinked. "Are we still talkin' about salsa?" She smiled and winked. I walked away thinking "That was so odd! I'm not wearing anything today..." When I got home I remembered the soaps in my pocket. Was it a real hit? It felt like one of the most real hits I've had. At at the same time I also think "Naw! Couldn't be..." Anyway, just putting it out there...

Hey guys how do you order a certain scent when you are ordering something at Paradise 7?

Post: #20

When you are sent to the Paypal site to pay they have a box for instructions to the seller. I've given my list that way and there have been times where I forgot to use the Instruction box as I mentioned earlier in the thread, I would copy the email address from my Paypal confirmation of payment email along with my order number and tell Diane what I wanted that way.

I'd never heard of the scent Randonnée à pied before and that's become my personal fave.

My instructions usually look like this:

I'd like Down Girl unscented and FTL in Randonnée à pied scent, please!

BTW, I can never remember how to correctly write Randonnée à pied, so I usually copy and paste that directly from her site. (like I did just now!)
