But when I opened both padded envelopes, and the bubble wrap around the Impi, I found it was slippery. Upon inspection I discovered a small amount of the product had leaked everywhere.
I believe this is an error in the closing of the sprayer when it is screwed on. I contacted Love Scent and I hope to get a favorable out come, I will keep this thread updated with the situation.
Love Scent has been great in the past, I fully expect this one to end very well.]]>false2013-03-08T17:28:44Z2013-03-08T17:28:44Zhttp://pherotruth.com/Thread-The-Love-Scent-forum-newsletterLove-Scent.com Forum Member Newsletter http://love-scent.com/forum

Greetings Forum Members,
Hope you are getting some beautiful Spring weather wherever you are; we are finally getting some here in Eugene! Yay!
Well last week's pheromone article (and contest) was such a roaring success, I'm going to print another one today. It is an article I wrote myself over ten years ago, so I had to update the science a bit to reflect recent discoveries. As you will read, I still lived in Japan at the time of writing. Hope you like it.

Feature Article:
Not All Roses
-Bruce Boyd
I came across a fascinating article on the internet some time ago entitled "Can Animals Really Smell Fear?" by Sharon Lynn. On rereading it again this morning however, it finally dawned on me how crucial this information is to a useful understanding of the role that pheromones play in our daily lives.
To review for a moment, if you've been reading the Pheromone News, you may remember that pheromone production is closely tied to hormone production in the body. In fact, hormones are the building blocks from which pheromones are made as they (hormones) are secreted out of the body in our sweat and acted upon by the bacteria on our skin. Since most folks reading this newsletter are interested primarily in pheromones in their role as sexual attractant, we have focused mainly on the known sex-attractors, namely: copulins, the andro pheromones (androstenone, androstenol etc) and possibly the estrogen related componds. Quite naturally enough, these pheromones are strongly linked with the production of their corresponding sex hormones, but is that really all the information that is of interest to us as social creatures?
Here is an illustration. In the world of commercial pheromones for men, we are looking at a number of available active ingredients, androstenone, androstenol, androsterone et al. As the "andro" would seem to imply, in nature the production of all of these pheromones are directly related to the well-known male sex hormone, testosterone. And from what I've read, it seems reasonable to assume for the time being, that if a certain male is high in testosterone, he will be high in the popular male andro pheromones as well. Now, as you may or may not know, when professional athletes take "steroid" drugs, what they are actually shooting for (no pun intended) is a dramatic increase in testosterone levels, which in turn is well-known for dramatically increasing muscle mass, strength, and endurance, AND apparently pheromone levels. So, does taking steroids automatically turn one into the hotest stud-muffins in town? Well, as we say here in Japan, "so nani amakunai" (it ain't that sweet). After reading the article about animals and fear I realized the innate weakness of testosterone boosting programs as a means of achieving pheromone dominance. High testosterone may well lead to high sex pheromones, but can just as easily break down into any of thousands of other pheromones that may have positive, neutral or even very negative effects on our social situation. Towering youthful or drug-induced sex hormone levels are also linked to higher levels of the cortico-steroid or "stress hormones" in the body, which I am now convinced break-down into their own particular stress pheromones on our skin and breath. The message "I am seriously stressed out here" may be of use if you are waving a gun around and trying to get a bank guard to open a safe for you, but is not likely to get you where you want to go if you're looking for the love of your life at your local church social.
Stress pheromones?!?! Smelling like fear? Don't believe it? A writer and dog trainer for the K-9 Academy, Law Enforcement Trainer's Resource Center says you can easily train a dog to "pick out people who are afraid" and continues: "a guilty person's odor is coming out like a smoke bomb and smells of fear." And another trainer, Morris R. Atwell, who works specifically with dogs that are being trained to find dead bodies, relates that although on occasion they have the opportunity to use "real live" dead bodies for training, when none are available, they must use dummies and a synthetic bottled scent (ie: commercial pheromone-like substance!). I swear I am not making this up...the fragrance goes by the name "Fear and Trauma."
Woman at the fragrance counter (in a soft breathy voice): "Would you like to try our latest men's cologne? It's veeeery sexy! It's 'Fear and Trauma' by Love Scent. They say it brings out your 'inner cadaver'. It drives me wild! Try a little."
Male Customer: "Umm..you know, I'd really love to, but um, you know..I promised my wife I'd straighten out my sock drawer this afternoon, and I really have to be going now..."
But in any case, don't forget to smile!

So i ordered some products from Love Scent on 11/02/2013 taking advantage of their Valentines day promo.
I ordered:
1x Impi red dot scent
1x Alpha 7 unscented
1x New Pheromone Additive 15ml
Total value: 154.85$
Discount: 38.71$
shipping: 16.25$
Paying: 132.39$
When ordering i specificly put in the comment box:
Is it possible to put something like "3 bottles of scent samples" or something simular and a buying price less then 30 dollar on the invoice to avoid customs import tax here?
The mailman came by 26/02/2013 but wouldn't give me the package unless i payed 35.96 euro. (47.10 $) So i knew right then the import taxes had hit me
Here's the receipt i got involving the import taxes:
So today i went by the postoffice to get my package paying the taxes. When i got home i unpacked.
The packaging was ok, bubble wrapped separately and then again bubblewraped into one bundle. Even so as you can see, some of the Impi Red dot had leaked. Nothing major though.
There were also 2 printed out pages with guidelines on how to use their products in the package.
Now i was wondering how i could get hit by the import taxes when i specificly asked to keep the buying price mentioned on the invoice less then 30 dollar. Looking futher at the package, i noticed the description saying "Cologne" and a value of 116.13$.
Those two combined is a sure bet you'll get hit by taxes. Also if you take the purchase price and take away the discount and shipping you get 99.89$ not 116.13$. My guess is they added the shipping cost to the value of the items resuling in more taxes.
I understand not every company is willing to be creative on avoiding these taxes. But you would expect at least an email or something from them explaining why they would not do this. This is the 1st time i had it happend to me while ordering pheromones. Other companies i ordered from in the past did get creative and avoided me having these issues.
So to sum it up, im satisfied with the speed of shipping (got mailed the next day), somewhat satisfied with the packaging, not so satisfied with their effort to avoid me getting import taxes and communication about this issue. Makes you wonder.. did they even read the comment i put while ordering?
Don't get me wrong, in total i'm a satisfied customer. Oh well, in the end i have my goods now and hope that they will be worth it!
