That sucks. I'm liking the secret admirer. Is it possible to do another round of them?

I'm really liking Secret Admirer too. I'm not usually much of a perfume gal, but this just might convert me! :lol:

I got Cassanova and Squeeze. It is funny because I am wearing Cassanova myself. I really like it!

I got the Secret Admirer Body Butter and it smells heavenly! But then so does the Roseberry. It is perfectly named because the main note is rose, with an after smell of berry.

That's too bad about the sexy vanilla, I do like that one.

I bought all three of the perfumes and I absolutely love them all. They are all so different that I really enjoy them. I really hope that there is some way Karen can continue to make perfume... even if it is not these exact ones... I know that she will make them smell delicious! ;) Please Karen keep making these perfumes I love the roller ball application!
Thanks so much!

Hi All,

I just got Squeeze and I love it! It's so fresh and lively! BUT, it doesn't last very long on my skin. Is there anything I can do to prolong the staying power? Would love any tips, thanks!

@rubycat95: I've read a couple of tips on the Possets Perfum forum that I'll share here. First, make sure you moisturize well before you apply the perfume, & be sure to let the moisturizer soak in for a little while before scent application. Another tip I read is to put some perfume in the palms of your hands & then lightly rub your palms up & down your forearms, speading the oil around. (It would probably work to just apply the oil directly to your forearms & then rub it around, but I'm not positive.) A scent locket is an option, too, as scents seem to last a long while in the locket, but I don't know how well that would work with the rollerball applicator. :? Oh, it also helps to rub some of the perfume oil into your hair.

Great tips selki!! I'm having the same problem w/ Squeeze...love the scent (great pick me up), but doesn't seem to last long. Maybe I just need to apply more. I never thought to add a bit to my hair!!

Perfumes made with essential oils are generally not as long lasting as a more traditional perfume because they lack the fixative products that give them staying power....but on the other hand, they are a lot easier on the nose, especially for those with scent sensitivities, as they don't tend to overpower since they soften nicely. If you like the scent of Squeeze, think about getting the hair oil, as it smells a lot like it! ;)

If anyone has an unloved secret admirer I would LOVE to take it off your hands!! I really wanted that one, but was too slow to order
