My experiences with the sense of smell

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...
