Hopefully, others willl add their knowledge and sophistication to what I've written so you can get a good idea of the scents. Likewise, there are several scents that I have not tried.
Girl Nip: LPMP states that it is a resinous sexiness of sandalwood, amber, patchouli and black musk, with masculine touches of mahogany and tobacco, topped with dark chocolate, tonka and vanilla bean for just a tinge of dusky sweetness. Myself, I find this to be a light, syrupy sweet scent that is dominated by a candy and chocolate scent. While this scent is not for me, I think it would do well for larger, masculine type men that want to soften their image a touch; and face it, ladies love the fond and tender emotions evoked by sweet smells.
KingMaker: LPMP describes it as Featuring a deep resinous base of sandalwood, patchouli, vetiver and cedar with a bit of smoldering amber, which we layer with a chypre blend and fern, plus touches of sage and tonka to give it a modern aura, and refreshing splashes of water accords and orange blossom. It utilizes sandalwood, patchouli, Vetiver, Cedar, Amber, cyphre, and fern among other notes. This is a bold, but yet subdued scent. If you can imagine what the old Jordache for men mixed with Drakkar might be, and then update the scent, this is close. I find this to be enjoyable for me, clean and fresh, but yet strong and manly. It is a medium toned scent, a bit on the perfumy side, but it is a unique status scent. It is my number two favorite. When I wore this, ladies were quite responsive.
UN: Mara’s prose states that Un scent is Cool, clean lavender is combined with our intoxicating blend of exquisite quality pipe tobaccos, woods, copal and maple, making this an unusual, gorgeous and undeniably MALE scent. The front notes are a bit on the sweet side, but it is distinctively manly. The maple scent is slightly dominant, but you don’t come off as Mr. Butterworth. This is a strong but playful scent and the tobaccos and woods give it an earthy hint of mystery. This might supplant Kingmaker as my #2 favorite. It seems to have an almost duality to it, as it hits as sweet and inviting, but broods to strong and mysterious.
Badboy: I couldn’t find the proper text for Bad Boy scent. It seems that it was a limited edition, which is a shame. I have a sample of this and I like it a lot. It is light, smooth, and a semi-sweet vetiver type scent with some incense and wood undertones; but there's a certain leathery metallic vibe to it that is hard for a clod like me to accureatly describe. The name is a good description. If you can imagine what the imagery of a stubble cheeked, long haired, rebel, wearing fresh leather, might smell like coming straight out of the shower after a dramatic physical endeavor; this is the scent. If, like me, you are a rebel without a clue, this is a great scent. Unfortunately, it no longer seems to be available.
Merlin’s Blend: Described as primal and elemental LPMP has written that Earth, Air, Fire, Water, Spirit and Flesh are all represented in this magical potion which amplifies your personal power and inspires admiration. This is a very earthy and woody blend that reminds me of subtle incense, dreamy VIP status cologne, wizards cloistered away in their towers, and olfactory dynamics all at once. It has a pretty strong head-shop vibe as an undercurrent, but is still sophisticated and complex enough for just about any situation. I like this scent, as I am more of a hippie than anything else; so it suits me fine. For dancing around the bonfire at your local renaissance fair or to wear out with your free spirited lady du jour, this would be a fine blend. It is earthy, vibrant, and wispy all at once. It is a mysterious, spiritual type mix; but it will still do well for general work wear, but probably not suitable for the boardroom. I’ll probably wear this at my next coven party.
Homme: Homme is a sophisticated and complex blend that puts out an aura of strength and sexuality. LPMP advertises it as a base of deep and luscious Vanilla, Amber, Patchouli and a bright spark of Apricot. But because we appreciate the dark mystery about you, we've incorporated Mahogany, Vetiver, Sandalwood and a touch of Black Coffee. It is slightly head shop-like and the Mahogany and Vetiver wrap the citrus scent nicely. The undertones of the amber and Patchouli add strength and mystery. While the Vanilla notes are present, they are quite subdued and they only give this blend a hint of sweetness; jut enough to make it special. This blend is somewhat related to several other vetiver types, but it is light, mildly fruity, and it really does throw out a sexy man vibe. It is its own unique scent that others just don't match. The coffee tones even out any rough edges and this blend seems suitable for just about anyone. My wife absolutely goes nuts for this scent, more so than any others, and I like it as well. It is my go-to scent for the Love God and is my favorite. Overall, when my long-haired, lilliputian self wears the Love God in this tone, I have gotten my best reactions.
Hope this helps
Thank you! I already ordered LP Homme before I saw this. But it was the most intriguing description so thank goodness! Will review it as soon as it arrives.

When I received TLG Homme lightly scented I shelved it for a couple of days because of travel shock. After 4 days I applied one spray to my hand just for testing the scent and I thought I would not be able to wear more than 4 sprays. So strong and powerful. You can read my first experience with this scent here: LPMP: WORST Customer service! Don't bother with these swindlers. Post #62.
But I know a freshly mixed parfume without fixatives needs time to age hence I gave it one month time to age and now the scent is different - much more balanced, mellowed and sophisticated. Imagine a teenager that recently became a man. It is a gourmand scent. Imagine a noble coffe note with hints of amber and vanilla with little woody notes of sandalwood and mahagoni in the background with a tiny sweetness. This scent is not a lightweight neither it is a heavyweight. I would discribe it as a noble/ luxury and gourmand scent. Women love this scent and it is UNIQUE!
When I placed my order I asked John to include the rest of the not needed scent with the shipment so I can adjust the scent to my needs and he threw in two vials of LP:Homme for me. I recently used one of the vials to adjust the TLG to my needs, I am glad I asked to do so.
By the way: this scent lasts very long and I can even smell it the next day
If you decide to go for TLG LP: Homme scented I would recommend to order lightly scented and ask John for one or two vials of LP:Homme. After one month time of aging you can adjust the scent your needs, if you need to.
I was just thinking of how to categorize scents in general and this came to my mind:
LP:Homme
Adventure: No
Business: Unsure
Classic: Yes
Elegance: Yes
Luxury: Yes
Power: Yes
Trend: NO
Unique: YES!
With my order of TLG LP:Homme I received a sample of Kingmaker. I took a sniff and within 1 second it was clear to me I need to order TLG Kingmaker scented. I asked John wether it is possible to get a roll-on bottle virgin Kingmaker (without mones) and he made it possible 
This scent is, I have to agree with Gladen, clean and fresh (but not citric fresh), it is a elegant and crisp scent. This one, at least for me, is sexyness in a bottle. Kingmaker is my #1. Ideal for spring, summer and early autumn.
Wether you wear a old denim jeans or a expensive suit, this scent fits.
Wether you go to a bar, a club or a business meeting, this scents fits to any location.
Kingmaker is more a lightweight, powerfull but not a heavy scent. This scent does not play with top-, heart- and basenotes, it does not change its game.
I had a first scent test with TLG Kingmaker today after one month of aging at 4 sprays and I find the scent a little bit weak. But it was 0°C and I don't know my sweetspot yet. I will test again in early spring and if its still to weak I can use the virgin Kingmaker from the roll-on bottle to adjust the scent to my needs, but I doubt this will be the case.
I'm pretty confident this scent will have excellent mone projection.
Kingmaker
Adventure: Yes
Business: Yes
Classic: Yes
Elegance: Yes
Luxury: Yes
Power: Yes
Trend: Yes
Unique: YES!
Both of my TLG are alcohol/oil based in a spray bottle.
Please keep in mind that Mara does not use fixatives, means the scents will build a unique unit with your personal skin chemistry hence scent results can vary a bit!
Sorry for derailing the thread, I hope it helps.
Wow I already ordered the Homme. I'm not a big fan of super strong scents because they give me a headache after a while. Oh well, next time I'll look into kingmaker if I become a fan of the product!
