^^^IMO yes MDA can be magic or meh, and in fact I wrote up a thread on it a long time ago (like 8yrs ago) on DF, it’s called like “Variations in batches of MDA” or something like that.
Back then I was just starting to get a grasp MDxx batch variation, and I made the argument that it was isomers by comparing experience reports to the different isomers. I still think it could be...
But it does appear that certain batches have a magic quality that others don’t.. That said it also seems that MDA is only available in areas where magic MDMA is accessible, leading me to believe the synthesis routes for magic MDMA and MDA are similar.
High quality crystals clear MDA like the picture I showed is an amazing substance, that when I have friends and family try it they don’t believe it’s even MDA mixed in with their dose. It’s highly euphoric and empathogenic, very chatting and lovey.
Impure shit sass/MDA is sedating/mongy, bland and boring, little to no euphoria sometimes even dysphoric, visuals/trippy aspect is different too. Overall a waste of good precursor IMO.
The stuff I just finished off was crystal clear with beautiful formed shards, but if you broke open a shard or bit into one you’d get that taste/smell of safrole.
That’s something I notice with all the good product, even stuff that looks insanely pure with very nice clear crystals, upon breaking open the crystal or biting into it at least the faintest hint of safrole is detected.
Safrole is very potent smelling/tasting even at minuscule amounts, I’ve had a single drop ruin an entire batch of hash oil many years ago when I played with various oils, my guess is that even if safrole was there in .1% amounts it’d still be detected by the human nose and taste.
I’ll be sure to continue to watch for that though. Up until the past 5yrs I couldn’t really detect safrole in any of the product I was taking but my nose was also destroyed for awhile from other drug abuse. I was eating stuff then that people were saying smelled sassy, so I’m sure some people can’t detect it even in appreciable amounts.
