My experiences with the sense of smell

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 ...
