Potion, uncommon
The next time you see a creature within 10 minutes after drinking this philter, you become charmed by that creature for 1 hour. If the creature is of a species and gender you are normally attracted to, you regard it as your true love while you are charmed. This potion's rose-hued, effervescent liquid contains one easy-to-miss bubble shaped like a heart.
Notes: Charmed, Control, Consumable

Posted Jul 14, 2019According to the Character sheets, this weighs 1lb. But other potions (like potion of Healing) have a weight of 1/2 lb. Are there unique weights of these listed somewhere? It seems like an oversight to not list a weight with the magic items.

Posted Nov 8, 2020Imagine someone drinking this, purposefully, and looking into the mirror to Charm themselves.

"If"
"you become charmed by that creature for 1 hour." has zero relation whatsoever.

Posted Sep 15, 2021Something that seems quite obvious but I forgot about, is that if a creature is immune to charm this has no effect on them. So won't work on quite a few devils and stuff (especially higher cr).

Posted May 26, 2022The description says "if the creature is of a ... gender you are normally attracted to, ..." So the answer is that it doesn't work

Posted Jun 16, 2022If you are not normally attracted to them, then only the first part takes hold. You are charmed by them, but that usually means you think of them as your friend/you trust them. Or just whatever is in the charmed effect.

Posted Sep 15, 2022So this is essentially a date **** potion? Seems very inappropriate.

Posted Sep 19, 2022No. It is not. Philter of Love is essentially the "Charm Person Spell". And that states that the effect ends if the charmer or his compagnions do anything to the charmed person that this person sees as negative.

Posted Oct 28, 2022“Seems very inappropriate.”
It really is as simple as not including the content you don’t like in your personal game. You can even include the Philter of Love and simply change its abilities or set limits on how player characters are allowed to conduct themselves in your world so it’s less uncomfortable for you if you’re so inclined. You have the power.
That said, if we’re only focusing on the most disturbing or morally reprehensible actions a player character can commit using an item or spell, I’d wager it would be easy to label a massive number of them inappropriate.
