Edge Essentials

[DryGin]

Just got my order of Edge

Essentials \"Arouser.\" Any suggestions re: how much to wear? Mixes? etc?

Thanks

[ToBeOrNotToBe]

Well, I\'ve

been using the same ammount that I used with the regular The Edge. 3, 4, 5 dabs... 1 spray (not more than this). To

be honest, I got some positive reactions that I never got with the regular Edge.

Knowing that there is no \"cat

piss\" smell helps me feel more confortable... perhaps that\'s the reason why I got some results with this Edge

Essentials and no reactions with The Edge.

[DryGin]

I\'ve never used

Regular Edge. Are you saying that one spray of edge essentials is = to 3-5 dabs of Edge?? I would think any more

than one spray of this (arouser) would make you stink anyway cause the oils smell so strongly. I mean stink as in

using too much cologne.

[Holmes]

Yeah, you\'re right.

I used 2 sprays of Arouser one time and I smelled like Louis XIV.

I like Heat much better.


Holmes

[bjf]

I have arouser and I

hate the stench. I smell awful until it fades. But it covers the none smell the rest of the way.

However, how

long does heat cover the none smell?

[Holmes]

In my experience, Heat

lasts long enough. No problems at all.

Just who or what is Arouser supposed to arouse? A female

skunk?


Holmes

[bjf]

Yea, it is terrible. I

wish I had read this post before I choose, because it is awful to smell and I stink like a skunk for about 10 to 15

minutes after I apply. I may just have to buy heat. WHat do you think of the smell?

[Holmes]

I love it! It\'s

kind of a fresh-yet-earthy patchouli scent, with slight citrus top.

It\'s vetiver and clary sage.



Holmes

[Bruce]

I like Heat a lot

better. In fact it is one of my regulars. Clean, citrusy outdoorsy kind of smell. Arouser has it\'s fan\'s

though. It smells like pachouli to me. I don\'t think I\'ve ever worn it though.

Bruce

[Holmes]

It\'s weird, but to

me they both smell like Patchouli in different ways.

To me, Arouser smells like Patchouli in the bottle,

but changes character as soon as I spray it on... /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif And it is

pungent (call it an \"OD Guard,\" I guess...).


Holmes

[ToBeOrNotToBe]

The Heat\'s

scent lasts several hours (more than 6 or 7 hours, I would say). It\'s quite nice.

[DrSmellThis]

I\'ve tended to

like arouser, as the cedar is so masculine smelling.

When you get a new batch, could you please test if there is a difference between a new batch

and an aged one? Nobody but you can make this test.

I liked Arouser very much when the first batch was new, but I

suspect it is aging and changing very fast.

Well i liked it too though, i used 2 sprayes of arouser at my school and

gotten really weird hits with it was cool though.But at least i didn\'t get any negative hits with it like i got

with regular edge.

DZorro,

[DryGin]

DrSmellThis: How much

do you use?? Have you had any good hits? Has anyone??

I

don\'t dislike the smell so much as it is just very strong. I don\'t want it to overwhelm the room or the

person or persons I am intending it to have and effect on. Also don\'t want to OD.

[Bruce]

MM,

We didn\'t

stock a whole lot for the first order, so it shouldn\'t be too long before we reorder, but that is a new product.

It hasn\'t been very long since it was manufactured. I can\'t imagine it has gone bad already.

Bruce

[bjf]

Does anyone have problems

getting consistent sprays from edge? It doesn\'t seem to spray the same amount all the time, I own a edge/w and

ege/m used, and edge arouser.

[Mtnjim]

I may be weird (..no

that\'s a given /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif ) but I use 2 dabs of Arouser to cover 2 dabs

of NPA and it seems to work well. I found much more than 2 dabs gave a \"scent OD\". I like the ceder scent in it

(but then again I like Sandlewood spray from Crabtree &amp; Evelyn.

[franki]

So, how is EE working

out for people?

Contrary to what most people think about it, I think EE Arouser smells not that bad.

/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif I haven\'t been around to use it a whole lot though, but I am

going to cause my supply of \"normal\" TE is slowly running out..

Yes. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif The fresh

clean scent blends so nicely with the -none that I don\'t notice it. I haven\'t worn it a lot, because I really

haven\'t worn -mones a lot lately, but I like to wear it when I go out to crowded places, along with a little PIw.

I don\'t think I\'ve worn it alone yet. I find there\'s more of a \'hover\' factor from the men around me

than if I don\'t wear it. They stand much closer than usual and are very attentive, and it\'s not due to the

crowd factor. This is similar to the reactions I got with TEw, but with EE Tango I\'m not self-conscious about the

stink from the -none, and I can enjoy the attention. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

I was about the

first to write about Arouser and Heat and I gave Arouser Kudos. But I think Arouser is going bad very fast. You

might have a fresh batch. At the moment, I\'m the only one who says that Arouser is going bad, so don\'t trust

me until somebody else reports the same.

The cat piss syndrome

is pretty funny actually. I don\'t know if there wasn\'t a mistake in the factory because nobody, and I mean

even girls, and heck even me own mother can\'t smell a thing, only alcohol

/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif And I\'m talking about unscented Edge at four dabs (wrists, neck

and pubic area) which should theoretically send all the dogs in the neighborhood chasing you

ive read so much about

this edge cat piss smell, i got mine yesterday and i cant smell cat piss. yeah it smeels very much alcoholy, but no

urine. and trust me i have an AMAZING sense of smell o_O

te/w made me so happy yesterday, even when i was mad it

didnt seem to affect me as much, just not such a deep bad feeling, it made everything have a silver lining! i didnt

think mones would make me so happy feeling /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

[bjf]

Wow, what you guys are

saying is really interesting. I never wanted to use my TE/m because it smelled like cat piss so much. Is it

possible women do not conciously smell none at a higher rate than males (1/4?). The same could go for the secret

ingredients too.

The more -none there is, the stinkier it gets. I think we\'re

just hearing from a few people who happen to not smell it. That doesn\'t mean everybody can\'t. Why do you think

guys get the \'stink look\'?

Thus saith a woman who can smell -none.

[Rakesh]

Well I dunno, my

female friends couldnt smell anything bad, and as I said even my mother (and mothers are supposed to be bad ass

pheromone detectors) said she only smells alcohol with maybe an acidic tail. Mind you, I opened the bottle of the

Edge in her face and asked her if she could smell anything.

[Gossamer_2701]

Try putting a

couple of drops on a piece of paper andlet it dry for about 10 min. Then give it a few light sniffs. That will let

you smellthe mones instead of the carrier.

[Elana]

I don\'t smell

anything other than alcohol, but I know that plenty of other women do smell the cat piss scent.

[franki]

Whew, I went out

tonight for the first time in 2004! (I really needed it!)

I got approached by a little 20-year-old blonde

hottie tonight in the club. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif

/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif

Could have been the EE Arouser, could have been my good

looks. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif Apart from that, I got plenty of other female attention as

well. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

[pico]

so how do the EE\'s

work? are they nice smelling edge? ie. they work like none with secret ingredients? or is the effect more subtle?

does it make girls chatty like nol?

[pico]

also what about mixing

EE\'s with the other mones such as none, nol, and rone ? does it mix well?

[CptKipling]

EE\'s are just

TE with an EO fragrance.

(that enough abbreviations to put anyone off!)

I think

so.

They seem to work best when talking to strangers on the street.

[DrSmellThis]

I use only 1-4

dabs max of Arouser, so the smell being too strong is never an issue. I agree that Heat is better standalone, but I

prefer Arouser for combining, since it\'s close to a pure cedar note, and since cedar is such an important EO for

its composition (although clary and vetiver are too in their own way).
