Well I went through most the sample bottles I got. 

Copulin figs..........   I love this scent.  Unfortunately I cant say I got a response.  I thought maybe I was using to much last time because Di mentioned these are different so I started with 1 dab and worked up to 10.  I notice on the high end a slight increase in attention.  I also noticed my husband responded only when I held my wrist right up to his nose and said smell this.  Could be diffusion.    His response was mild though.  He hovered more, paid more attention and decided be both could fit in the recliner.  No sexual hits though.    

Copulin white lotus.  Another lovely scent and this one has much better diffusion.  I wore 3 smudges.  One behind each ear and one split to wrists.  Now my best friend responds well to small amounts of copulins and I can pick up on if they are working by his behavior more then my husbands.  My husband is sexually attracted to me already so sometimes its harder to tell if its the cops or if his blood is just boiling naturally that day.  

I noticed a slight increase in flirtiness and innuendos from my BF.  No other noticeable response from other males or females.  


I decided the next day to try it with 4 drops of the plain unscented cover by 4 drops of the white lotus.  There is a very faint but pleasant scent of copulins.  Effect were the same as day before but my husband was rather frisky when I got home.  

Next day I decided to use just 2 smudges.  I again thought maybe I am using to much. Went to a Christmas party.  I brought the bottle of lotus and unscented with me just in case.  

It was very warm there to the point of mild discomfort so I know my body temp was up.

Everyone was having fun and mingling.  No response to the copulins though.  Next I ran to the bathroom and used 2 more dabs of lotus and two dabs of unscented.  It was hard to tell because everyone was rather festive already.  I did notice more attention though but no direct blatant hits that I am used to when using cops  

I got a little frustrated so I again went to the bathroom and this time I used 5 smudges of unscented covered by 5 smudges of lotus and Bam when I came out I noticed within 10 minutes people began to hover around me more and show more interest.  A few innuendos and one blatant come on.  My hubby also kept saying when we going home. Not because he wasn't having fun either

Now it could be the alcohol that was being consumed but not in every case.  We are all a bunch of health nuts and most of us dont drink heavily at all.  


I know Diane that you have mentioned dose doesn't play into it but for whatever reason be it my age or my natural hormones or maybe diffusion it makes a difference when I use it.  


Next I had my friend Mare try it.  I was almost out so she couldnt have her use the lotus one so I applied the unscented and covered with the Sahasrara perfume sample you sent me.  She fell in love with the scent of course.  Her words............  Oh my god that is divine.........  

4 smudges of unscented covered by the perfume.   She went on her anniversary date with her hubby.  She mentioned he was very attentive and sweet which she sort of expected since its there anniversary LOL   She didn't experience any hits from others though. 


I did try a few sleep tests.  I applied 3 smudges of unscented and after my hubby feel asleep I put my wrist near his nose for a minute then just laid naturally.  He just slept soundly and normally through the night.  No pelvic activity LOL 

Self effect.........  I didn't ask Mare but for myself I feel the same way I feel with any other cop product.  More feminine.  

Its not as strong a effect as some other cops I have used but its is doing something.

Maybe for you the alcohol based would be better. PM me after the new year and I'll send you a couple of testers to try out.

Diane

Thanks Diane. It could be. I wouldn't say I have trouble with Love Potion oils but the hits are also very mild. Maybe my body doesn't heat up enough for oils. My hands and feet are always cold LOL Could be the climate to because I do better with oils in the summer.

After Christmas, when I get all my tips (mad money) I am going to place a order so you can throw a few samples in there if you feel like it. Don't feel like you have to though because you have already been more then generous.

Tisha

Tisha,

Perhaps you should experiment a bit with an unscented spike. The first batch I got from Diane was in a sandalwood carrier and had no cops smell. Had the same type of light to nonexistant effects. Later Diane contacted me and replaced the product on her own initiative, stating that she thought the cops had interacted with the oil. The second spike I got had a decided cops smell. We haven't had the opportunity to test the second batch much though.

With this new cops product, there may be as yet unknown interactions with the scents during storage. You may want to mix up some unscented in alcohol and just apply cover to your skin. That would take one unknown out of the equation.

It might be Ct! I had much better luck with the original alcohol ones too. Honestly the only oil products I've had super good luck with are primal and Scent of Eros . I'm not sure what witchery James did to scent of eros, but it works like a charm. Love Potion oils i have to use a lot of and the hits are very mild so I try to stick to alcohol as much as possible in all my products.

I make all the copulin products up fresh before I ship, so storage isn't the issue.

For tisha (and Nia) the problem is diffusion.

I've always said the oils are better for intimate space, less than 4 feet, and skin close is better still.

Some of the scents help the diffusion more than others. But oils will always have less diffusion than alcohol based products.

It all depends on what you want the product to do. For typical social type flirty hits, you'll want to go with alcohol. For heating up the bedroom, freshly applied oils are better.

Diane

OK I have tested all of my copulins samples down to the last drop. 

I hate to be the odd man out and I have been holding back on reporting because I didnt want to hurt Di's feelings.  But I cant be of service to her or anyone if I cant tell you the truth,    I love the scents they are fabulous but I am not getting any of the effects reported by other users or that I expected with these. 

I figured "ok maybe its me not diffusing them" I wanted it to just be me because I am excited about Dianes new venture and I admire her for all she has done, not just in making copulins but taking a stand and opening a store. So I had 3 other experienced friends test them just to be sure.  2 females and 1 male.   I was hoping for at least some of the self effects reported so I told them to keep note of that as well.   They have all used copulins before with success and I didnt tell them what they were although Greg knew as soon as he smelled his.  I used unscented for him with his own cover.

They didnt report any hits that they could could say came from the copulins. Nothing that would really stand out and say "wow these work" 

As for self effects which I thought would not be a problem since diffusion makes little difference for those.  No feelings of increase in blood flow, stronger erections or change in moods in the user or those exposed.   I didnt have enough left to test for a OD effect. 

I just dont understand it.  We tested at the Christmas party which was a pretty warm enviroment and people were within 4 feet of others alot.  I also had them test once more in a everyday environment before I ran out.   I kept them in the frig just to be sure they would not go bad.  I applied according to the directions you sent me. 

I just cant place whats going wrong here.   I am sorry but I figured you should know.  

I will still keep trying once I get some of the alcohol ones.  I know the answer will dawn on me eventually.

Tisha   

I'd also like to know what is going wrong with your vials, Tisha.

Tomorrow I will be sending you four test spray bottles (5 ml each). One is regular strength in alcohol. The others are 2X, 3X, and 4X... all in alcohol.

I made up three sets of these and I'll be sending the other two sets to other forum members, one male and one female.

That way we can do a little mini test of these in alcohol.

If you don't get effects with any of these I don't know what to tell you.

A warning here... Mara and her two helpers got hypotensive headaches with just one spray of 1.5X copulins in an alcohol base with fragrance. This was from a drop in blood pressure because of the relaxation of the smooth muscles of the circulatory system. A little is really good... too much is not.

So test these judiciously and if you start getting a headache wash the copulins off with water, and any headaches will resolve within seconds.

It might be a good idea to spray these somewhere other than close to your face to avoid a headache. When I use the alcohol based sprays I spray my wrists or the back of my hair.

Maybe I lost my touch. I am gonna balance my chakras and do a cleansing bath before I test this next batch. I feel bad because you have been so generous and I so want them to work out. Do you think because my dad died and I am still a bit in mourning that I could be giving off a natural pheromone that may over power the feelings the copulins give. I seem to being doing ok with softer bonding mones like P74 or Beta Androstenol as of late. Course that would not explain my friends not getting anything but I used them more then they did.

Dont worry I welcome the headache. At least its a start if it happens and I know something is occuring.

Tisha

Tisha, don't worry about it. There are other possibilities. The alcohols will just give us some clues.

If you use a lot of Instant Shine or TAF or or TAA or some of the other pheromones that also hit the Glutamic acid receptors, you may have those receptors in a down-regulated state right now. That's one possibility.

Maybe your vials were made up at a lower that required concentration. I was doing a lot of these each individually, and I can't rule out that I made a mistake on yours. That is another possibility.

The stress of your father passing can effect your neurotransmitters, but the copulins should be helping in that regard.

I'm sure there are other possibilities.

Look at it this way, if the 1X works for you, you will essentially have a 5-10 month supply of copulin spray, because you'll need to dilute the others down to 1X. That would be a happy day for you.

These are unscented. If you need more diffusion, just add 4 to 5 drops of bergamot or any citrus essential oil to the 5 ml sprayer. Doing this to the 1X will essentially recreate the original form that you received last summer that I think worked for you.

Again, just be careful using the higher concentrations of the spray... don't use these around anyone that you know has low blood pressure, since these will make it fall farther.

The other thing everyone needs to know about these higher concentrations of copulins in alcohol is that using these in conjunction with any sort of medications for treating erectile dysfunction is really contraindicated, since these medication halt the natural breakdown of NO in the body. That coupled with continual increased NO production from copulins can seriously lower the blood pressure. So Viagra/Cialis, etc. + high concentration copulins + higher diffusion is a real NO-NO.

On the plus side of that if Viagra/Cialis works for your partner, you can have him put those pills away and use copulins for a better, more natural erectile response.
