"LOVE Potions and Charms" is Grand!!!
I bought this book a few months ago and have since used quite a few of the spells and recipes in there. I especially love the Love Salad recipe. I make this salad and enjoy it's potency often. I have had several of my friends and coworkers comment on the aroma of it and asking me what it is whenever I eat it and they have all agreed that it is one of the best smelling (and the ones who have tried it themselves) and tasting salads they have ever tried. I had a friend of mine look through it themselves and use the Bed of Roses spell in there for her and her spouse and it completely helped to bring them closer together. He had not ever really opened up to her much prior and after she did it, he starting opening up to her more and they have become closer since. I myself have made the Chypre perfumed oil in there and have enjoyed it's sensual scent, I've even had others comment on it and they love it when I tell them where I got it from. I continue to try many of the other spells and recipes in this book and love every moment of putting my energy in to doing so. I really recomend this book for anyone looking for one that gives you a variety of "Love" ideas to try out or work on. It's one of the best books for this that I have ever found!!! =)

Serious potions and healing lotions!
The reviewer who gave this book 2 stars complained that it had taught him nothing new. So he already had the ancient Chinese recipe for Horny Goatweed wine? I was greatly impressed at the wealth of unusual information available in this book, particularly with regard to traditional aphrodisiacs (the ones that haven't been made illegal at least), their preparation and uses. It even has a useful list of suppliers in the back. I found the book witty, knowing, touching and inspiring. I even discovered a herbal cure for dry and itchy skin that really worked! I plan to roadtest some of the most intriguing love philters as soon as I have found a worthy lovemate - which, with the help of this book, I suspect won't be too long.

Love Potions and Charms! I don't think so!
Don't waste you money. I thought I could become a more powerful seducer. But I did not learn anything new! We ALL know that chocolate and alchol are aphrodisiacs. I gave this book a 2 because the artwork and layout saved it! Beautiful pictures of herbs, and things, but if you want to learn to seduce, look some place else.
