My experiences with the sense of smell

MX497 has identical formula to that of one of my all time favorites MX101 but since it is in a new scent package (Blue Summer) I was slightly worried about its efficacy. But all my concerns were unfounded. It works exactly like MX101! I have literally worn it everytime I put pheros on since the day I purchased it because the mood and confidence lift have been so noticeable. I think I finally also figured out how to make it acceptable for day wear. Androsterone is the key. Both A314 and IG pair nicely with it and the resultant vibe is very socially acceptable during daytime, including at work. I have noticed A314 to have a slightly more noticeable positive impact at work than IG in this pairing, with more compliments and signs of trust from my boss and the conversations at work have been more frequent and non-boring. The old marquee features are all present as well, random strangers feeling a strange kinship, bro fist-bumping vibe with guys, getting noticed more from women, wom

Many people new to pheromones often wonder if all they are going to get with pheromones is some smiles, some looks, a friendly chat here and there, but not sex, or relationship. Its understandable. Pheromone products are not cheap and the skill to use them effectively takes a lot of time and patience. So the reward better be worth it. So I started thinking back on which products actually did get me laid or get me a relationship and what was the common theme in those products. Its funny, but the first product that comes to mind is APC, which was a really low dose of -none, but it worked pretty smoothly. Others have been, Primal Instinct with Chikara, MX101, MX101 + MX102 + P79, TE + A314 + PF, and some that I may be forgetting right now. For relationship the best have been, again APC, but also MX203, and surprisingly MX292. I think the best mix for sexual attraction should contain a small spike of -None (doses vary from person to person) on a base of a symphonic mix (low dose of

Applied 1 spray of MX390  and a spray of IH 2x to back of neck. At the coffee shop noticed couple women standing unusually close. I thought of moving away before realizing it probably was an effect from MX390. At work noticed that the meeting organizer would only look at me when talking and not to the rest of the room. I was on his side which made it especially noticeable to everyone. At the lunch place noticed couple eye holds from women . People were not afraid to get close and women had that look in their eyes. I would say that there was a very noticeable element of respect with this mix. Not sure about pure attraction but it did draw attention and also drew women closer to me. I have to say that I love the responses from IH which makes people look and behave around you like they know you even if you had just met. 

We are used to measuring our mone application in terms of mcg. But how many molecules of that product is contained per application? Consider Alpha-Androstenol with molecular mass of 274.44 (grams/mole).  Lets consider 1 mcg application of Anol 1 mcg = 0.000001 grams = (1/274.44) * 0.000001 mole = 3.64378E-09 mole 1 mole of a molecule contains 6.022E+23 molecules, which means that 1 mcg of Anol contains 3.64378E-09 * 6.022E+23 = 2.19429E+15 molecules That's approximately 2 quadrillion or 2000 trillion (2 followed by 15 zeros) molecules in 1 mcg!! So lets say you apply 10 mcg , you are basically applying 20 quadrillion of Anol molecules . Now as you spray the product on your skin, many of these molecules may actually not land on your skin and just dissipate or land on nearby surfaces, so you are not actually carrying the full amount. Plus, the molecules will start diffusing (leaping off your skin in to the air around you) almost right after the applica

Jasmin was kind enough to support my new foray into testing and gave me a large gift certificate, which I used towards purchasing the following molecules at high dosages intended for mixing: TAF     25 mcg/spray P74   100 mcg/spray P79    100 mcg/spray P83   100 mcg/spray P86   100 mcg/spray P103  100 mcg/spray P130  100 mcg/spray P75  12.5 mcg/spray P93     25 mcg/spray TAL    25 mcg/spray TAH    25 mcg/spray TAC    50 mcg/spray The concentrations I ordered are different for different molecules as the OEDs (Optimal Effective Dose) are different for different molecules. Some of these molecules are new for me (P103, P130) while the rest I have tested in the past, some quite extensively, and even posted reports on many. I am also testing my own MX101 replica mixes which is coming along quite well, and I have converged on a mix that I feel can work even better during daytime. Although that tames some of the punch from nighttime use, I am willing to make that sac

I have been tweaking the interface of the windows based mix calculator to make it slightly more user friendly and easier to use for beginners without a whole lot of instructions. The result of that effort is version 17, which you can download from the Mix Calculator page, linked on the right hand side. Web version: If you are using a computer with a different OS, feel free to use the web based mix calculator on that page that doesn't require you to download anything. It even works on mobile operating systems like Android, iOS etc. so you can use it from anywhere. Ofcourse the web version is a slightly simplified version and doesn't have as many options for inputting data as the full Windows version but it should give you identical mixing results. There is no limit to how many components you can have for your mix in any version of this program. And as always it is free for you to download and share. Cheers! A note for European users: Please use a decimal instead of c

As mentioned in one of my earlier posts I have been using Nude regularly for the past couple weeks. Today I added a tiny blob of TE gel before going out to lunch, on top of  my morning Nude application and went to get my lunch. A lady who works there told me that she is not going to be working there anymore and gave me her number on a piece of paper and asked me to call her anytime. It seemed like she already had it written down and as soon as I walked in she just came upto me and handed it to me. I don't think it was an instantaneous result due to what I was wearing that day, but something that had build up over time. For the past few months I have mostly wore SXD-9, Nude Alpha and then Nude and visited there almost on a daily basis and that lady had become progressively more and more friendly. Granted I have zero sexual or romantic interest in her, yet it was still an interesting response.

I have been testing out Nude from LAL for the past week or so. Lots more testing to do, but it has really impressed me so far with the very social effects with both men and women. I think there is no Androstenone in the mix and no risk of overdose. I have gone as high as 3 drops with nary a negative reaction. The best part so far has been the consistent mood boost and positive thoughts it brings. It also has a strong element of empathy and connection. LAL blends are one of the most consistent out of the pheromone companies in the market these days. They remind me of KZI (makers of WAGG, Alpha-7 etc.) in a way. This could be related to the quality of the pheromones in their products.

I have long wondered if we can create a computer model that simulates the diffusion of pheromone molecules. This model can allow us to study the diffusion and dispersion of pheromone molecules off our skin based on different application points. This is a challenging task, but not impossible. Such a model can be really useful to identify an ideal approach for pheromone application. Its a work in progress, so I was excited to come across two papers that greatly help increase my understanding in this regard. The first paper talks about the variation in the outer skin temperature at different locations of the body. The paper is titled "Human Calorimetry" , and you can download it here . This excerpt from the paper should be enough to pique your interest: "In normal surroundings, say at 25°C.,the average temperature for the whole skin surface of a lightly clothed man will be in the neighborhood of 33°C.,the average being a mean of widely different temperatures at dif

For a long time I have been noticing that I usually get very noticeable reactions in the evening and after some sweating from a morning application. I think I am finally starting to understand what is happening here. Typically I apply pheromones right after I shower and I feel that right after the shower my pores are open and when I apply pheromones, especially the ones that are alcohol based sprays, much of it actually gets absorbed through the epidermis. Then when I start sweating either due to an activity/exertion or just slowly during the day, the pheromone molecules actually start to re-surface on the skin and disperse causing more obvious reactions. A quick way to make sure that the pheromones stay outside the skin where they can start diffusing and dispersing as expected after application without getting absorbed would be to: A) After your regular hot shower, turn the water to cold for a minute or so, before stepping out and toweling off. The short cold shower should be su

This page provides a great collection of many of the most popular studies done on this subject combined with a brief summary of their major findings. Check it out: http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2090123211000397#b0260

R. Thornhill and S. W. Gangestad published an interesting paper titled "The Scent of Symmetry: A Human Pheromone that Signals Fitness?" in 1998. Here are a couple interesting quotes from the paper: "The scenario for the scent of symmetry we have described is consistent with the concept of a male sex pheromone related to symmetry." "Humans are the second species in which data indicate that the scent of symmetric males is more attractive to females than the scent of asymmetric males" You can download the full paper from CEACB website The information presented here has been known for a while but is still interesting. Point is that attractive heterosexual males release pheromones that are attractive to females. See the following paper on relationship between symmetry and attractiveness. http://www.mdpi.com/2073-8994/2/2/1081/pdf Here is an interesting study of relationship between athleticism and attractiveness http://www.martijnwieling.nl/fi

No reactions of note at the coffee shop.  Nothing to note at the lunch place 4 hours later. Conversation with male colleague and friend went as usual too.  No extra attention,  looks, or smiles.

MX355 was a custom mix that Androtics had created for me. I wish it was available to a much wider audience as it was a pretty unique mix that gave a strong vibe of a provider who was also interesting and exciting, perfect for date nights and daytime use without intimidation. The most interesting aspect was that it was achieved without any Androsterone or Androstenone in it. The only issue was that it had MEO-EST, which is not available via Androtics anymore. I wonder if there is an appropriate substitute, although I don't think that played a large role in the final effects, besides bringing some comfort and naturalness to the effects.

Applid 2 sprays of Wolf from LAL spread across on chest and lower neck. I like the powdery smell even though it is a bit much at 2 sprays. Went for coffee to the local sbux but nothing special to note. I feel good and level headed but had a strong desire and motivation to do something. I have been having these feelings a lot for the past couple days to get more out of life and this seemed to amplify it.

Androtics and Pherotalk were my favorite places to shop for and discuss pheromones few years ago. They had amazing products and were on the cutting edge of science and brought several experimones and putatives to market that have quite novel effects. It drew a lot of very innovative people to their board, some of whom had a very keen sense of social dynamics and a very good understanding of how pheromones work. It was a great place to learn from each other, and from some of the masters, like Tacitus. His passing left a very unfortunate gaping hole and soon many other contributing members of the highest caliber started to be less present. That's not to say that there are not other members there who can fill that role of expert intelligent contributors. In my latest visits to the forum I found a number of very knowledgeable members who have a solid understanding of pheromones coupled with a very helpful attitude. Yet something seems to be lacking. One thing that sticks out the m

I have tried a lot of pheromones products from many different companies. If someone were to come ask me today, what is the best social enhancer that will enhance all aspects of their social life, I will recommend the following products: 1) MX203/MX476 (same as MX203 in FF21 scent): Great social enhancements plus attractive to boot. There is nothing like it in the market right now. Perfect for people who are not naturally very gregarious due to the high amounts of TAA that enables you to think on your feet, project an upbeat persona, and also comfortable and articulate. 2) SXD-9: This one is surprisingly social and with regular use you will start to see more smiles, more friendliness, more people willing to engage you, talk to you, a general elevation of your social status. Its not as attractive as MX203 though. 3) V-5: Slightly more attractive than SXD-9 but not as noticeably social. Yet you will feel enhanced and happy, and more positive, which will draw more people to you. 4) WA

Pros: 1) Extremely social - Strangers would smile and say hello Keep in mind that this is a very high -none mix, so this effect in itself is pretty incredible. It can easily lead to an opening for interesting conversations. 2) Immense confidence - You will walk with your head held high and a spring in your step. Creates a very upbeat mood. Think Instant Shine on steroids. 3) Intense attraction - If you are in a club type atmosphere you are bound to see intense attraction type reactions. I saw it 80% of the time. 4) Makes you proactive and cocky - This makes you want to approach and be social and its easy to be humorous and articulate. This is in contrast to some other good mixes that make you too laid back and feel like you are too good for everyone. 5) Decent day-after affects -  It doesn't convert to something nasty the day-after and it may actually be promoting your own release of attractive mones, leading to very attractive daytime effects the next morning (unless you h

Since the Pheroproof/MX101 formula has not been revealed by Futurist or Androtics, I will take a crack at guessing it and hopefully someone else with a more refined sense of its effects can improve upon my guess. So, here goes: -None 6.125 mcg/spray -A Nol 5.5 mcg/spray -B Nol 5.5 mcg/spray -TAA 5 mcg/spray -TAF 12.25 mcg/spray The amount of total mones per spray and amount of -none per spray was revealed on the pheroproof website, so no guesses there. I am 99% sure that the two secret molecules were TAA and TAF. There was an additional comment there, that mentioned that one of the secret molecules was in the largest concentration here. My guess is that this secret molecule is TAF. High TAF + -None has been tried before and many people have found it to be a very powerful combination, so this makes sense to me. There is a high social vibe in Pheroproof that is very similar to the CTTM v2 mix where Anol and Bnol were in equal concentrations. So I am guessing the same he

I visited the aromasciences website today and much to my dismay noticed that Pherofragrance, that I loved, is nowhere to be found there. I wonder if it has been discontinued, just like the xcite wipes many years ago, given Dr. Dodd's changed focus now (see my previous two posts). After some web research I found this UK based website that delivers worldwide which still sells it in what looks like an identical bottle. I hope the pheromone mix inside is also identical. http://www.goodhealthmatters.co.uk/products/cat14/cat122/index.html The same thing happened to xcite wipes. Now its extremely difficult, and most likely impossible, to find a reliable place to purchase it. I may give the pherofragrance from goodhealthmatters website a try though to make sure. Hope that the formula is preserved.

I had been waiting on this for almost 4 years now and looks like its finally (almost) here - A personalized perfume kit created by none other than Dr. George Dodd of the famous xcite wipes, and Pherofragrance pheromone products. I have posted quite a bit about his research and his products on this blog before but this is a brand new direction for him and for the pheromone and perfume industry. I know that he wanted to bring personalized perfume creation to the masses so I am glad to see his efforts come to fruition and very excited to try it as soon as I can. Check it out here and request to be notified when its available: http://www.satsltd.net/perfume-kit.htm The SATS Perfume Development Kits In the SATS Perfume Development Kits, we bring you a different approach to perfumery - and an approach that we know works successfully as we have been following it for several years with many satisfied customers.

Interesting event and website for people interested in the wornderful world of scents and pheromones. Check it out here: http://www.worldsmellday.com/ "World Smell Day (WSD) was started in 1988 as a celebration of our sense of smell. On each subsequent WSD; pregnant with Joycean possibilities and an appreciation of Leopold Bloom’s love of scents and aromas – our olfactory abilities have been celebrated in prose; poetry; music; and of course through scent."

I have been using mones for almost 10 years. After putting in a spray of high -none couple days ago I was quickly reminded what a powerful molecule that is, and how it has to be wielded with great care. Granted, some people do just fine using high amounts of -none and also get incredible reactions from it, but for most people who are not blessed with that rare persona and skin chemistry, it can introduce them to a world of pain. The positives of -none are well known, but I feel that the negatives are not highlighted enough. If you use too much of it and too regularly it can very quickly cause social anxiety, depression, irritation, introduce distance with your loved ones and friends, create friction at work, and your world will suddenly appear to be a much darker place that you know it to be. Thankfully many of these effects are short-lived if you wise up to the fact that its the -none causing this chain reaction and once you wash it off and give it enough days to be completely

I have been going through my old posts and found a repeated observation about seeing noticeable good results on the day following mone application, sometimes to OD levels.Here are two old related posts: http://smellscent.blogspot.com/2006/12/good-feeling-pheromone-residue-hits.html I have felt that pheromone residue hits (i.e. hits received when you probably think the pheromone applied has already evaporated because you didn't apply any pheromone recently) are much better. I get good hits in the evening compared to mornings all the time. So far I had tried to attribute it to various things like people's mood in the morning. None of which seem like a satisfactory explanation. With some mixes I get good hits soon after application. With others I get hits after many hours mostly in the evening from morning application. Sometimes the day after application with nothing applied that morning. Attractions should come out through pleasant conversation, good eye contact. I shoul
