Well i'm

planing to get some SOE. but i can't decide on which kind, scented or unscented? How is the scented one?

If i

get unscented i could get some fierce and use that as a cover smell.

But if the scented smell is as good as

Chikara, i think i'll give it a try.

I've never tryed SOE before so idk which to choose

I prefer the unscented as you can

choose a variety of covers, e.g., a quality cologne. Nevertheless, scented SOE is a pleasant sweet woody smell,

evocative of sandalwood oil. It will blend well with colognes containing sandalwood, clove and other woody Asian

spice and tree oils. It's too weak to work as a cover for 'none heavy products such as NPA or TE.

It smells

much better than Chikara to my nose, but then I find Chikara too sweet and girly-boy for my taste. Reminds me of a

cheapo body wash.

Correct me if im wrong, and your

opinions matter, at least to me.
But do you feel "scent" of scent of eros resembles the scent of semen but just

more refined and sweeter?
Hope there are not some secret ingredients in the concontion that the makers have not

told us about! it would be a real pity to waste so many millions of potential lives in the manufacture of a

perfume/pheronone!

LOL That's a good one.

Perhaps you enjoy a different diet than me but they smell as different as grass and smoked salmon. Semen smells

earthy and extremely bitter. But I've never sniffed any semen other than my own so I'm not an expert.

You didn't happen to somehow

get a "customized" bottle from Fran1 (http://www.pherolibrary.com/forum/showthread.php?t=9925) I hope.

:D

I've read things on the Net claiming that pheromone products were made from corpses but not from seminal

fluids. Anyway, I think JVK has more integrity than to do what you're suggesting. Besides, how would you get the

volume necessary for large scale production? Milking machines? :sick:

As for the smell, I'm just the

opposite of Gegogi. I like the smell of Chikara but find the musk in the scented SOE too strong. I prefer the

unscented SOE instead. I also noticed that when I first got both versions of SOE, my boss would get the sniffles

around me when I wore the scented one to work but had no nasal problems with the unscented SOE.

Bottom line,

it's a matter of personal preference, just like regular cologne.

I like the scent of unscented SoE.

Scented one is too strong.

I think you can get both a scented

and unscented gel pack in the sample packs. But you may have to ask for the "woman's" set for one of them.

I an

see arguments for both versions. The scent of the scented version is nice, but then again you may not like it. The

"unscented" version will give you more flexibility as to a cover scent of your choice and avoid "conflict" with

other scented products.

For those of us who prefer simple "grab and go" solutions the scented versions make

sense.

I was just about to order some scented-SOE gel packs. I was planning to wear it over a dab

or two of npa. Sounds like that might be a bad idea, right ?

I'm not sure, but if you found

the scent didn't cover the NPA you could also spray some cologne over it.

The SOE gels are far too weak to

cover NPA, especially after dry-down.

too weak to cover NPA, especially after dry-down. so does npa always have to be covered with a regular

cologne ?

I like the scented-SOE but I'm confused about how I can wear it with npa.. (?) If I need to use

another cologne won't that mask the soe-scent too ?

You'll probably want a little

something "extra" to cover.

something in particular ?

I'd think that very few

colognes don't clash horribly with scented SOE. It's pretty assertive. Which is why I started using the

unscented.

Yes, don't wear it alone.

Either you try

it with the NPA (a couple of dabs might not cause much of a problem) or you find a cover scent that blends well (I

personally haven't found that cover scent, but I think others have mentioned Aqua Di Gio and L'eau D'Issey in the

past - try a cologne-related search).

I know you said you like it, but are you hell-bent on the scented SOE?

Unscented would be much easier (IMO).

the unscented now (usually with npa & L'eau D'Issey). I just liked the SOE scent sample, but I don't think I'll

order it if I can't wear it with npa.

you can wear the scented

soe with npa but you will most likely need to use a cologne as cover on top of it. IMO the soe scent fades rather

quickly.

you could always get the scented soe and add cologne as cover when you wear npa.

Well

I got my order today and the freebie pack that came with it had the SOE gel pack busted. No big deal as it was onl

$.01, but the pack smelled way stronger (and to me better) than the liquid version. The scent is pretty much the

same but the gel pack is way stronger- the scent is still filling up my room.
My preference is to buy the

unscented- which by the way I ordered and it is bigger than the one I bought previously (also doesn't have a black

cap- looks like the scented version). The unscented allows you to wear any cologne.
