VibeXS Review

[girlfriday]

I got my box of goodies last week and tore the box open like a mad woman. My first order consisted of Vibe XS and Desire Me Plus spray, both in Sweet Sensations. This was only the second time I'd smelled pheromones and the first time I'd smelled copulins (in Desire Me Plus). I'll talk about the Desire Me Plus in another thread, but let's just say the smell of the cops caught me off guard. I only had 15 minutes before I had to pick up my daughter, so I figured I'd better start with something a little less offensive. I knew the cops in Desire Me would require some time to dry down, so no go on that one.

I had some pink sugar perfume oil, so I put that on first and let it dry for 5 minutes. Then I put on 1 spritz of the Vibe XS. I applied it to the front of my neck, and then used my wrists to rub it in the top part of my chest and then around my wrists. It was a bit strong, but not offensive.

The initial self-effects included a giddy kind of rush. It made me a little tickly, but it died down in maybe 15 minutes.

I live in a highrise, so I was hoping someone would get on the elevator so I could test this stuff. Sure enough a guy - maybe in his late 30's - got on right after me. Before he got on the elevator I could hear him telling a woman, "I love you!" But as soon as he stepped foot in there with me it was a SERIOUS deer in the headlights moment. He says, "Hello beautiful!" And I smile and say hello back.

For 10+ flights he stood in my direction and just stared at me. (I was turned so that he was looking at my side profile.) I wanted to bust out laughing, so I know I had this crazy goofy look on my face. And when the elevator door opened, he stuttered out the words, "Have a good day!" The really funny thing is that I had just seen this guy in the laundry room earlier and he didn't say a word. So yeah... that was a pretty hardcore hit.

I picked up my daughter and we took a stroll to the grocery store. I didn't notice anything out of the ordinary. Then I got on the self serve line and there were two women ahead of me. One of them was talking on her cell in Spanish. So when a line opened up, she didn't notice. After a few more seconds of gabbing, I start waving at her and saying "Mira, mira!" as I pointed to the empty line. ('Mira' means 'look.')

Now this was HIGHLY unusual for me. I know a bit of Spanish, but I never use it here. It just flew right out of my mouth before I could catch myself! And that's when I began to understand the disinhibition factor that Vibe XS gives. I thought it would be something I would feel coming on, but I swear the words just popped out before I even knew what was happening.

After we left the grocery store, my daughter and I are walking home talking about something silly. All of sudden the disinhibition thing kicks in again. I'm like, "blah, blah, blah, ass wipe, blah, blah, blah." So my daughter (11 years old) says, "Ass wipe! What?" And we both look at each like WTF just happened??? This girl NEVER cusses in front of me. And the very day I'm wearing Vibe around her, she lets one go. I laughed, but she was so embarrassed saying, "Oh my gosh, I'm so sorry mommy! I didn't mean to do that!" I know... I know... you just got sucked into mommy's little social experiment.

I plan on trying it out again this week. I work from home, so I don't have a workplace setting to experiment. But I have a few places where I can test it. More to come!

Great report on Vibe! I haven't grasped how vibe works yet as it seems to fluctuate based on my mood.

[girlfriday]

Thanks fdesa! I'm still trying to master my sweet spot with it, but it does seem to make me feel less inhibited. I need to throw caution to the wind and try 2 sprays. Weeeee!

[girlfriday]

So I tried Vibe again. But this time I got a little daring and decided to add one of the samples Steve included with my order. One of them was PSEL (the female version of PSE) and the other was FantasyXS. I reached into the bag and grabbed the PSEL. (Porn Star Experience with nerdy glasses -- YEAH! That's how I roll.)

I started with a layer of Pink Sugar perfume oil. Added 1 spray of Vibe and 1 spray of PSEL.

Holy shite... does PSEL have cops in it? I was due to walk out the door to get my kid in T-minus 5 minutes. As soon as I sprayed it on, I was like "Oh no!" It reminded me of Desire Me Plus spray. I turned on the fan hoping... PRAYING that this stuff would dry down in record time. Remember, I live in a high rise, which means I have to get on an elevator. Cops that haven't dried down in an elevator??? I didn't even want to imagine it.

Instead I had to live it. I had to get on the elevator with this intense smell blooming (or should I say booming) from my neck. Of course when the elevator door opens there are 3 people already inside. I get on.

I could smell it. Oh goodness, I could really smell it. The elevator stops and another man gets on. Oh jeez... why??? Why didn't I just wash it off before I left? Why didn't I just put on some more cover up?

I. don't. know. Maybe I got caught like a deer in my own headlights. Either way, I'm wigging out thinking these people could smell me clouding the elevator up.

Anyway, I make it downstairs. The bus is taking forever and I start leaning on the back of a bench. A lady comes over and plops right on my bench. Mind you, there are 7 other benches available with no one sitting on them. It seems rather unusual that she would come sit on my bench. We chat for a bit and then the school bus comes. I could still smell the PSEL, but not as badly. I could also smell the Vibe, even though I have the Sweet Sensations scent. The Vibe smells musky on me, with a hint of smell good, after the dry down. The combo is kicking up through the warm air like a hungry barracuda. Seriously. I can feel it circling my head.

I decide to take another trip to the grocery store to test things out. They're building a new mall 10 minutes from my apartment, so there are a lot of construction workers near the grocery store at this time. Once I got close to that area, I noticed this scrumptious looking honey headed across the street. I walk a bit faster so I can be ahead of him, hopefully giving him a whiff of my pher-goddessness. Daughter and I are debating where to get a snack from when scrumptious honey comes up beside me (by now we're at the corner). He walks out to the middle of the street, lingers there for a second, and then comes back to the corner where we're standing. Tee, hee, hee! Cloud-napped!

He then walks out two more paces, turns around, looks at me and nods his head like, "Hi..." I return the secret head nod. By then daughter decides she wants a bagel and we head in the opposite direction.

After the bagel, I get to the grocery store and there's this cute younger guy walking around with his girlfriend. As soon as I come up close to pass them in the aisle, I could tell the guy caught the pher-cloud. He literally looked like deer in the headlights. I mean it was a textbook moment. Meanwhile, she's looking at me like she wants to choke me, lol! (Mind you, I'm looking like nerdy mom, and these two were at least 15 years younger than me.) We passed them in another aisle and the exact same thing happened again. I wish I could've taken a picture of this guys face.

Other than that, no other hits.

I did notice that this combo made me feel more aggressive. I felt like I was the queen. I walked like I was the queen. And the disinhibition thing made me really chatty, but it in a queen bee kind of way. I even noticed I was making eye contact more. Perhaps that's why scrumptious honey from the construction site was in my zone. I gave him a loooong eye-to-eye gaze as he was crossing the street. It was different than just Vibe alone, that's for sure. And I'm not normally this tiger-ish when my kid is with me. That's specifically why I wore my nerdy glasses. Nerdy eye wear or not, I felt like I could've pounced on somebody.

I need to try this combo again, but with some better cover scents and in a bar scene. So far, I enjoyed it. I'm still a total newbie-bot to the whole pheromone scene, but I see why the guys combo up everything.

Great reports on vibe! I find vibe helps others notice / remember you. Have you tried vibe combined with any other xs products ? I like 2 sprays flirt combined with 1 spray vibe-- seems to amp up the flirt factor plus make you more memorable. I also like 1 spray desire me + 1 spray vibe-- sexy and memorable !

[Morgaine]

I wore Vibe (2 sprays) for the first time yesterday while I was at work. I also wore 2 sprays of Flirt, plus 1 Connections on my wrists. I should say that I have previously worn Flirt and Connections together before, and have worn both plus Bliss and Loveboat. I have loved all the various combinations I've tried so far with these products, but Vibe added a new element in that I haven't experienced before.

I felt very confident, and much more at ease with myself and particularly in relation to interactions with others. This was a big deal to me- I am not confident around people at all. I also felt people seemed to automatically show me a greater level of respect and almost deference (for want of a better word) than usual. Not that I'm not usually respected, but it was like I gave off an aura of really knowing what I was doing, and people were very very appreciative of any help I gave them. I was working with one person who intimidates me a bit, and who I find it very hard to say anything to, or even be around, but I started conversations with her, and noticed that she seemed really happy to be talking to me. Every time I responded to something she said she'd get really eager to engage with me, and moved further towards me than she normally would. I'd definitely recommend Vibe either alone or in combination at work.

Ooooh... thank you Chitown -- and Morgaine. I hadn't even thought of combining Vibe with Flirt. (I don't have Connections, yet.) That sounds like it could be a great combo for a new class I'm starting. 'Memorable' is a very good description for Vibe. And like Morgaine said, it also give me more confidence. Every time I wear it I find myself being more bold than usual. And I know it's the Vibe because it always shocks the hell out of me when I say certain things while wearing it.

Thanks ladies!

*Scribbles notes furiously....* Very excited to try Vibe! Must restrain myself and test just 1 product at a time until I get a feel for each, but liking the idea of Vibe and Flirt already...So many options and only so many hours in the day! I want to try this one out on Sat afternoon....still stalking my tracking #

[Morgaine]

My current favourite combo to wear to work: 1 vibe to neck, 1 Tease to chest, 1 Love Boat to wrists, plus sometimes 1 Flirt to back of neck/hair/clothes.

Vibe is an essential aspect of what this mix does for me, because it brings the self-confidence, and draws others in strongly, and really helps to up the overall positive "vibe". It's definitely making me very welcome at work lately.

Morgaine... I love your combo suggestions! I ordered Love Boat yesterday, and I have Vibe, Tease and Flirt. When you say it makes you feel welcome at work, can you give a couple of examples. Do you feel more relaxed? Do you feel like people are showing you more respect? Less bickering?

I think I remember reading in one of your posts that you're introverted by nature. I'm not necessarily introverted, but I think I can lean in that direction sometimes. I tend to sit back and listen to people, which can be seen as introverted. Do you think this combo loosens you up a bit more?

Thanks for your help!

[Morgaine]

Well, there's no bickering at my workplaces (I have 2 separate ones). But what I've seen is that it makes me feel much more self-confident, much more relaxed around people, and definitely gives off an aura that encourages an increase in affection, friendliness and respect from others. It really seems to increase the "presence" you have wherever you are- like people are automatically more aware of and interested in you. I am definitely a natural introvert, and am not a practical, confident or socially comfortable personality at all. But with this, everything that doesn't come easily to me seems easier somehow. I just seem unconcerned, and have more faith in myself, so others do too.

I really like wearing this with upbeat social/feminine blends the most. Because it can go various ways, depending on your mood and what you wear it with- for example if you were not feeling social, and wore it alone, then it might give you an interesting aura, but not invite people in. Add some Flirt and/or Tease, and the combination becomes more inviting than any one blend alone.

Give it a go Girlfriday, I really think you'll love it- it's now become one of the most important blends I own.

[NuTrix]

Loving all this info!

Dummy me! I made a thread in the Unisex section for this one, forgetting all about this thread in the Women's!

So excited to try these combos once I've gotten more of a feel for this one!

[girlfriday]

Lol... actually that was my fault for making it in the Women's section instead of Unisexy! Heading over to read your review...

[Morgaine]

I've been wearing some Vibe again lately after an age of not wearing it at all. I usually am also wearing something like Flirt, Love Boat or Tease. My recent experiences wearing Vibe around shopping centres have really reminded me that this blend helps you to make a strong positive impression on people. It adds a bit of extra magnetism on top of whatever any other blends are doing for me. People seem very keen to be extra helpful and solicitous.
