Some Bliss XS trials...
07/04/3013
Tonight. 1 spray Bliss 8pm.
Had applied Love Potion BANG! at 11am. so residuals? Not entirely sure. Will test Bliss completely solo tomorrow.
Initial blast...ok, out of the bottle? I will have to scent this a bit more to completely cover the mones but that being said the mones were not unpleasant or stinky so much as I just noticed them because I recognize them when I smell them.
BOY does that alcohol fling it out! I sprayed the back of one hand and then rubbed the backs of both hands together. I got a hefty snootful and thought - WHOOO!
Environment: Dinner with a friend.
Got a giddy rush..kind of giggly that lasted for about 30 minutes (but not the same cooky silliness that sometimes happens at higher dosses of a-nol).
We were sitting at the bar...more interaction than at a table. Got great service, tag-team style form the bartenders - NICE! Couple to my left struck up conversation with us. When they left a fella took their place and I'm sure he would have tried to open convo with me if we had stayed longer.
This is just still too new for me to pick out too much yet. I would say I was in a chill good mood, but no where near so chill as to be slouching in my chair, drooling on myself at the edge of comatose. I'm still feeling pretty chill...but it could just be that I'm still full from dinner.

OK. I blew myself up with 3 full sprays...what the heck...I wasn't driving
1 split between wrists, 1 to torso and 1 to collarbone so I could get a good snoot full!
Didn't get knocked over. Was in a good mood, nothing over the top. Hubs and I spent the day out and about. Had a decent drive to get where we were going so hubby seemed also in good spirits and he was more talkative than usual.
It's rare for me NOT to be in good spirits so I don't know what I'd lay at the feet of BlissXS at this point.
NOTES:
Bliss didn't make me fuzzy headed or unfocused in my thinking or acting.
I did NOT become lethargic, lol.
I DO believe there was a mood boost...but it was a holiday and we were headed out for some fun already.
I did NOT feel hit by a truck BUT when we got back home we were both in the mood for a nap (normal for him - NOT normal for me) and we both slept for about an hour, from 6-7ish.
When I did finally go to bed later - like 1-1:30 - I was surprised I was ready for bed because a nap like that usually keeps me up until 3..4..5! AND THEN I slept in until 11:30
1 more thing...I usually shower in the evenings but since I had showered that day already I hadn't washed off the mones before bed like usual...residual sleepy time from Bliss perhaps? I could still smell the muskiness of it a bit before bed...which I actually liked, kept huffing app point on my wrists
It's only my 2nd wear, and I will try only 2 next time I go solo but I'm kind of "meh" so far. Not bad but nothing that stands out. It WAS more noticeable at 1 spray......buuuuuut then that was my very first exposure as well and that usually impacts me differently than something I've worn before..
To be fair, this is a unisex and a social, and all of my other uni-socials I wear in tandem with other blends to get the results I'm looking for so this may be the case with Bliss.
My beginning hypothesis is that less will be more. I will have to play a bit to find my sweet spot...can't be sleeping 10 hours every time I wear this, lol, and will definitely wash off at end of day before bed!

Solo Bliss yesterday. 2 sprays. 1 split between wrists and 1 to chest just below collarbone.
Environment: late lunch and mall with hubs for necessary shopping for family event & to update phones.
Background: Neither of us are "shoppers". We both like to know what we want before we get there, get in and get out, lol. So the idea is to find suit and dress for family function and get it done quickly. Same thing with phones. Checked out selection prior to store visit to make purchases go more smoothly...in theory...
Actuality: things NEVER go as planned
Lunch was good. Steakhouse. Bliss definitely makes hubs chatty. Good
Shopping for suit: Store's air system had been out prior to about an hour before we arrived...normally would irk hubs (he's always warm) instead...drove out other customers and we practically had store to ourselves, lol. Attendant was attentive and on spot: measurements taken... Jacket/check. Pants/check. Shirt, Tie/check. Peace - out!
Dress (different store): again, attendant spot on. Dress/check. Accessories/check. Peace - out!
Phones: HICCUP! Service: the people were great people and they truly bent over backwards and jumped threw hoops for us. It was an entertaining visit to say the least. Won't go into all the details but it took almost 2 HOURS and we walked out with lots of discounted items and free-bees. Now this is significant because something like this would have normally sent hubby into irreversible irritation mode...but he did not even remotely go there. He was chillaxed the entire time. Even went out for drinks when we were finished
I did however sleep late again today...9 hours easy. WTH? 7-8 yes, more than that? I even showered before bed so maybe I need to scrub the app spots harder
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Fast forward to now....
I had played with Bliss in tandem with other products but eventually just drifted away form it and eventually re-homed it for lack of attention :(
Now I have an arsenal of XS products and a better appreciation for their strength and behaviors and have re-purchased Bliss for another go round. I've lightly scented it with a fragranced oil called Pure Sugar and the remains of my XS sample of Le Chocolat -YUM!
I'm going to spray myself with a good 2 spritzes and will be back to report on effects. Looking mainly for selfies and we'll see how it hits the SO when he gets in tonight...I'm curious, it was a good blend to wear around him, let's see if it still is
Would love to know what you other ladies (and gents feel free to jump in as well...) are doing with it - stacking and/or situations you're finding it beneficial for. Looking for some zen currently and hoping this provides a bit...
