BLACK MDMA - Looks like coal

Buddy received some black rocks, that literally look like coal, not crystals you'd typically expect. I have a testing kit, an he wanted me to test it for him, I tested it twice with the 3 regeants and all of them gave 100% MDXX reaction. He gave us a few caps in return, and we went on to our NYE celebrations. I only dropped 100 mg, bf did 200, it hit me within half an hour, and felt great. This was my first time not using it at a rave, so sitting there socializing, I did experience periods of discomfort during some stronger waves. Bf was extra sociable, and horny, so I think next time I'd take two as well. Anyways, overall it was good, comedown wasn't harsh, have some afterglow.
I was just wondering if anyone could provide some insight into the color. I almost want to think it's a branding thing, maybe adding crap (charcoal?) to it for color and to add weight? Tasted like licorice.
 
This is coal I wouldn't mind finding in my stocking. Maybe I'll be extra naughty this year! lol
 
Mdma can be any colour. The supplier might have made it look this way. I've seen red, blue and even green mdma that test positive. Colour is never an indication of purity :)
 
The licorice smell has to do with impurities and whatnot.... I think it's like comparing unwashed brown sugar mdma vs. ReCrystallized solid clear chunks. I've heard of mdma ranging from red to purple so black doesn't surprise me.

Really though as you know you will not figure out what it is without extensive lab testing

Edit: I'll add the most beautiful mda I had was like a sugary texture resin chunk that was a dark slight purple with green hue. I have never come across it again and nor met anyone who has, but then again I don't know people.

I've heard of black MDA before. So definitely not a huge surprise to me. Good on ya for testing before trying!!! Do you know if it was MDMA or MDA...?
 
I've never had MDA, there was nothing psychedelic about this trip though, just a nice, clean roll, relaxing at times even.
 
The licorice is left over safrole, which in some peoples eyes isn't an impurity. I was just curious as to what could be added for that color. It didn't look like a lump of crystal, it looked like a lump of coal! It had little air bubbles in it too. Maybe it's a disguise? Lol
 
Anything that's not the desired MDMA is an impurity. Even products from the original essential oil that may alter and even mellow the experience.

Edit: It also is not going to be odorless when pure, but have the odor of MDMA no matter how faint.

A quote from a very well-known synthesis description
Even if your product looks pure and snow-white to you, please do yourself and your friends a favor and recrystallize the product. A lot of unhealthy byproducts are white/colorless just like pure MDMA, so visual inspection cannot be used to verify purity (you can only verify the presence of colored impurities). Pure MDMA·HCl is odorless, so using your nose is a better way to gauge purity.
For obvious reasons I'm not going to provide a link to the entire article, but he isn't the only one that reports this and he knows what he's talking about, so I'm inclined to believe it. It requires a lot of work to reach this level of purity but pure MDMA.HCl is in fact odourless

Well you called me out properly bluebull and I'll admit I was wrong. Although it is possible it has an odor we can not detect

hehehe, this. Everything (well, almost) will 'smell' to some degree - it just depends on whether or not the particular receptors in our nose/sinus/whatever will be stimulated by them. That, and everyone's different to some degree. Surely there are people out there who can smell things the average person cannot, as these people were lucky enough to cop a genetic mutation of sorts resulting in their ability. Like that chick that can see however many million colours. Just coz we can't 'see' these colours she can, does it mean that they aren't there?

We can't see light in the ultraviolet or infra-red ends of the spectrum....I guess they don't exist :P
 
Ugh going so deep. Mad respects on that although I'm just talking about drugz :D

Yeah that's true. Indeed better to say that it is odourless to us instead of just plain odourless. As soon as particles of a substance get into the air, the substance has an odour, even if it's undetectable to us, so in a way you're actually right by saying MDMA isn't odourless. I'll remember that for the future :D

You'll come to find I'm uber technical :D I'm surprised a room full of 500 g pure mdma rocked or broken wouldn't even let off a scent.... I wish I could smell mdma. I bet it smells like pure ecstasy! :P

i'd agree. in the literature hydrogen is always described an an odourless gas, and that's definitely not due to a lack of H2 molecules floating around where we could smell them ;)

Not as technical as some of you it seems :D
 
The fact sniffer dogs can detect the scent of MDMA among other drugs (albeit with a rather high false-positive rate, lol) says there is an odour that we simply aren't tuned to :)

But yes in the interests of HR it's best not to directly assign a particular smell with a substance....next thing you know there'll be kids plugging liquorice thinking it's MD :P
