So I tested my new batch of orange Dutch lions - purple marquis. Now just need to drop a couple next weekend
Mate just got 5grams of MDMA from Holland for the weekend. Same as the clear stuff I posted before in looks only this is direct from NL, and it smells of ACETONE, the MDMA is wet aswell, well over 5g that he paid for. I've noticed this with the clear crystals when I've crushed have all had not a whiff of the aniseed smell of old.
Try it and see but a lot of the obvious glycidate stuff doesn't smell of aniseed or pills at all. Smells kind of like the solvents in wet speed paste. It's always clear/opaque looking too it seems. The brown stuff I've had in recent years is usually better even though colour is said to mean nothing to the purity of it.
How did you get on?
Trying them tomorrow night, got 2 and so have my 2 mates, so a good sample size!
Give my until Sunday night and I will report back here

Ya know I'm supporting your investigative efforts mate but don't layer misinformation with more misinformation.
The acetone/aniseed smell, or lack of it, means little to nothing. The same with people talking about clear or brown batches etc.
I think we're at a dangerous point where anecdotal 'evidence' becomes the norm.
There's only really two things that matter, do tests say it's MDMA? Good, you're not going to die. Now how good is it? The latter result always disappoints.
I do support the PMK Glycidate theory but we need to remember we have no way of testing for that so it's hard to label (though I suspect correct). So that's another thing we need to be careful of using as a term, won't be long before dealers notice this and start saying 'not made with PMK Glycidate'
I did say colour means nothing to crystal purity didn't I? The last few batches of MDMA I've seen had that acetone smell and none of them had the magic. I'm not saying the brown stuff that smells of aniseed will always be good, just I've personally had more luck with it the past couple of years man. I was just posting my experience it's not be taken as gospel by any means.
I don't recall pre drought stuff ever smelling of acetone. So what I was saying is that seems to be a sign towards it being the shit stuff.
Acetone could may mean that the producer simply decided to clean it. But then again we all know there ain't any good chemists out there ��

Hey mate, just had a question about Dutch Lions, are they from the Netherlands or locally made?
Looking forward to hear from you about your experience with it.![]()
If you're completely off them, I'd reckon a couple of weeks would be enough time to feel MDMA properly. It totally depends on your brain chemistry, and how fast your serotonin transporters get back to normal. The worse that can happen is that you don't feel much, so just try again, a week or so later. SSRIs block serotonin reuptake sites, which stops MDMA from entering the synapse and having serotonergic action. SSRIs cause downregulation of serotonin receptors, because of the amount of serotonin that's left available. There's a theory that SSRIs actually work by reducing serotonin action, and there's even antidepressants that purposely lower serotonin levels, just because that actually works for some people. There's no real evidence that just boosting serotonin levels helps depression/anxiety/whatever. It could be the opposite, depending on the person. It's the reason people complain of brain-zaps coming off SSRIs, because it's serotonin receptors returning to to normal, like after a mad night on pills. Suck it, and see, but don't be surprised if the MDMA is shit!Roughly how long after stopping SSRIs should I be good to roll? Just as soon as they clear out, or do you need longer for things to re-adjust?
