Anyone mixing Realm and mones?

[Spanky]

I just

tried 1:1 Realm and TE, with a few drops musk. Didn't mask enough, so I went about 2:1 Realm to TE, covering with

AE.
This is strong, but I like the smell. Too much? Any other success stories with Realm mixes?

Realm fades quickly and is on the

weak side scent-wise compared to many colognes. Like you said, a 1:1 or 2:1 mix doesn't cover TE well enough. An

hour after application you're left with the cat pee smell...

Personally I find TE too diluted for mixing.

That is, for optimal strength, I have to use so much TE the cologne is too weak to cover it. Due to its higher

concentration of 'mones, NPA makes a far better mix component. 1:4 or 1:5 (NPA to cologne) works well and thus

leaves the cologne scent/strength pretty much intact. TE is more suited for dabbing than mixing.

One way of

increasing Realm's scent and lasting power is to add complementary EOs. I like to mix clove and cedar EOs in Realm.

It actually smells much better too.

Thanks! That is very useful info.

I will have to track down some eo's. And get some NPA...

The Realm gift set comes with a

body spray which tends to last longer for me.
