Quote:Shannon, which fragrances do you have on the docket that you think you would like to have a lavender scent incorporated, and from your existing research would you think it's more for a man attracting women, for a woman attracting men, or unisex?
At the moment, I am working on Paradise - a tropical themed scent, which is originally aimed at being unisex, but it's giving me fits. Every time I think I have it going the way I want it, it settles into something else in a day or two. I'm working on one that is code named SMWA, which is the fresh scent, which is also supposed to be unisex, but I have been accused by some of my female testers of making it masculine. And I'm working on one that's themed for a hint of warm cinnamon rolls, but that one is still very early in development. It will be a soft moderately light mostly masculine theme. There's another fresh fragrance aimed at men, which is probably going to be in the theme of Green Irish Tweed, although I am aiming to make mine better in some significant way. That's been on the back burner getting little attention for almost a year. Still relatively rough. There is also a gardenia based fragrance aimed at women, although that is currently just a concept in my head. And I have ideas swirling about in my head as to how to make Majestic Night classier, sexier, darker and more masculine than it already is as well. Maybe call that one Majestic Night Intensely Dark. Or maybe Intensely Dark Night. hehe. Majestic Night already smells very classy and sexy and masculine, but I think I can add a few more things and make it really trip out and turn into rape bait for women. If it ends up smelling the way I think it will, it will be so distinctively masculine, classy, distinguished, masterful and sexy that you might have her force you. James bond mixed with a billionaire and perhaps even a king. The most interesting man in the world. But I don't have time to work on that yet, because it's a complex formula and I have all this other stuff right now. Way more ideas than I have time to do something with.
ATM, in the works are the ones I mentioned first though. I am getting really frustrated with Paradise, though. No matter what I do, I just cannot get it to balance right, or grab me. And I'm not releasing it until it grabs me and I can be sure it will impress.
Quote:Just something I'm curious about, since from my personal experience I find myself more attracted to women who smell of lavender than those who don't (mainly from positive sexual experiences with women who smelt of lavender) and would like to know if it can work the other way around.
Scent/memory association can do the same thing equally well for both sexes, if not better for women since they have a more sensitive (or perhaps I should say, more consciously aware) sniffer than men do on average. Scent is the best way to get her attention, in a lot of cases. And since lavender is the scent most associated with soap - and therefore cleanliness - and it's even named after cleanliness (Latin root for "to wash" is "lavo") and many women love a clean man Lavender is a very popular scent for both genders. It will be a component in the scent I make that is in the theme of GIT.
