hello everyone, i just recently just bought some a314, and some other products, but what i have noticed about the a314 is that when it is first applied (2-3 drops) it smells really good (this is because of the nice smelling essence oils). About 10-20 minutes later it will start to smell kinda odd… its not necessary a “bad” smell but it just smells odd. I tried old spice body spray but it olny lasted like 10 minutes… today i got some real cologne to cover it up and it lasted all day but i still got a whiff of the a314 now and then. when i was using a314 by itself no one said anything about it, except this one girl in one of my classes said it smelled like Windex (she said this in general not about me but she sits right in front of me, so im not sure if it was me) so if anyone has any tips, tricks or any kind of input i would really appreciate it. -Wes\_ ---

After a few days of wearing it though, I’ve grown to love the smell. I’ll put a drop on my wrists and find myself smelling it throughout the day lol. From reading threads throughout the forum, I think 2-3 drops of A314 might be a little too much for you to put on. At age 17 you should be producing more none naturally so 2-3 might be overkill IMO. ---

spray some polo colonge near your a314 application points. polo really blends well with a314 and serves as an excellent cover that last s all day. ---

Once the EOs evaporate and mellow you can smell the naked mones. A314 is 80% androsterone, a substance similar in scent to mild BO. The other 20% are steering mones one of which is androstenone, a mone with a scent similar to piss (it is found in both sweat and urine). Once the mones in A314 mingle with your sweat, skin bacteria and natural mones, an all together new aroma arises, usually a really funky one. For that reason I avoid applying A314 or any other mones on sweaty parts of my body. For example, I used to apply A314 behind my ears thinking what a great place as my woman always sticks her nose there. Run around for a few hours on a hot day and ears sweat more than you’d ever suspect. That nice smelling A314 is transformed into a rank funk. One day I snuggle up to my girl and she exclaims, “damn, your ears smell like friggen ass.” ---

I have noticed this before as well. At first a few people noticed the odor but after a few hours it doesn’t bother them as much. One trick I did was to spray a little frebreze on my cloths to off set the smell. But after the 4th day, seems by body has gotten used to a314. I would suggest wearing nothing but a314 for a couple of days then see what happens. Perhaps your body just has been used to it is all…
