Association for Chemical Reception Sciences"!

NaughtieGirl that was a

very interesting article. We'll be driving to Florida (20 hours) at the end of June. I'll have to try the

Cinnamon and Peppermint and let you know how it goes. Perhaps I can get some air fresheners too.

The CountessI think long car rides are excellent for aromatherapy and mone

experimentation. Small enclosed space, proximity and captive audience. It is also a situation in which it is easy to

guage the other person's mood/attitude.

It is exactly in such a situation that I became convinced that I like

PI/w alot. Fifteen hours of him happily chatting along endless stretches of highway (including traffic jams) is not

a coincidence! And I'm a pretty sceptical person.

I would have to agree

NaughtieGirl. I'm looking forward to it. We've made the trip every year for the past 4 years but this time I'll

have my mones on. I think it will make for a much pleasant ride. I'll remember to up the PI/w just to be on the

safe side. I like the captive audience comment because that's about what it's all about.

BTW have you had

favorable results with your significant other yet? Or are you still in the experimenting phase of things. I'd swear

by PCC though to get things started.

Were you asking me? Yes, it's

coming along nicely as you can tell by the "car ride comment". I reapplied PI/w at every pitstop! Every 3 to 4

hours.

I might have to back off from the EW. Once it made him very agitated. Then a couple of weeks later when I

tried it again and when I sat down on the couch he said "Wow, vanilla!" That surprised me because I wear VS warm

vanilla body splash on a regular basis, so why would he comment on it. So i'm attributing that to the "special

ingredient". He went to take a hot tub and I went to bed. For me it was just a "Did I mix it right as far as smell

goes?"-Test. We had already had a very pleasant evening the night before!

The next day he commented on how

poorly he slept. How agitated he felt, agitated dreams, waking up etc. :angel: Poor guy!

NaughtieGirl yes I was

asking you and thanks for the reply. When I first starting experimenting with EW I had trouble also. But now it

works great in my mix. Also you may want to try just one drop in some scented lotion and see how that goes. I have

some in my Sweet Pea lotion and also my Maja lotion and I can't smell it at all.

The last thing you want is for

your sweetie to get agitated and have restless sleep. If you do apply anything like EW in your lotion etc I'd wait

about an hour before actually going to bed that way it's not that intense. If there's still a problem I'd back

off from it altogether at least for now.

Yes, I'll have to be cautious with it. Just pushing the -nol for closeness might end up being sufficient.

I

checked out madini.com. What puzzles me is how they can offer all the EO's at the same price for 3 ml. Or did I

read too fast and missed something? :think:

A site I particularly like, and that was recommended by KoolKing is

Snowdriftfarms.com. They list the Latin name of the EO, its origin, how it was expressed etc. According to my EO

book a serious site should do that.
:lol: Listen to me, talking as if I know so much about EO's! Actually I'm

very new at it. Just read Mindy Green's book last night.
