Hi friends. I figured that enough time has passed that I can offer up my first review of A314.
As I mentioned here in my first post, the purpose of my trying out A314 (and Instant Shine) is “so that I can further improve my growing social skills, and to see if they help me in terms of job appearance and appraisal.”
To begin, before trying out Pheros, I was hopefully interested, but grounded. Now, I am a believer.
My personal test came in two parts, roughly lasting 2 weeks (or so) each. One, testing with A314 and Instant Shine, and one with either A314 or Instant Shine standing alone.
Man, all I can say is that my purpose is becoming fulfilled! My first week using them, I was put in charge of two projects , one short term, one long-term. WTF!?!?
This is amazing to me because I did not expect them, especially the long term project, because it has been handled in the past by people more senior than I (ALOT of responsibility). The short term project, well, I did expect happening, but not NOW, lol!
As far as my interactions with people at work…I’ve noticed that my immediate boss is treating me more like his “Son”, if that makes any sense. I’m 27, and he’s 55, and I already was the “young new guy” at the company, but now he’s trying to help steer my career path with little informal “talks”, telling me how to do things. Telling me what he went through, etc. I didn’t ask for this, and before hand, we only talked about business. He even gave me another project (last week) that though short-term, carried ALOT of responsibility, and he told me up front he was going to do it (I just didn’t know when). Last week, I just whent with the Shine too.
As for my peers, I’ve noticed people who I’d call “assholes”, don’t really want to stick around me now. That could in part be to the effects on me, personally, that the pheromones have, causing me to act different. Not Shine, as Shine makes feel “upbeat” for the short term, but I’m specifically talking about A314.
In short, the effects of A314 on ME are some of the most remarkable. They are why I wanted to try the phero’s out individually, because I wanted to be certain of “what” being “what”. A314 makes me feel calmer, but not a lazy or sleepy-relaxed calm. It’s a calm that let’s me know, and feel, that I have everything under control. That I am IN control, the driver seat. It’s damn near impossible for me to feel anxious (as I frequently enough do)…it’s like whatever is in this stuff suppresses anxiety and nervousness, really. I should also add that clarity of mind is another effect, though I’m not sure if it’s because of the calming effect.
I should also add, that my subordinates in the projects I oversaw (and oversee) responded heavily as well. They wanted and needed direction. This “need”, admittedly, pissed me off, LOL! Honestly, because I was not used to such power (of being in charge) on the one hand, and being treated, and looked at differently in a real palpable way on the other. I’ve learned quickly that people need direction, even the ones that supposedly can lead themselves (they can lead themselves, but within the framework YOU provide).
I should add the my “general” superiors treat me more and more like “one of them” (which is my goal). I probably should have typed this when I was less tired, but I would have never gotten this done, lol! So I did it now.
In any case, I also want to know, at this point, how do I gain access to the A314 forum? I PM’d Steveo once, and that was that. I PM’d again, and well, hey. Yes, I PM’d Jasmin too, lol! Any help from the Mods would be appreciated.
Also, dosage. On the label, the suggested dosage is 1-5 drops per day. I used 7. It was also suggested to take 2 days of per week. I did not do so during the first two weeks. I also dosed myself with a drop under the nose at each use, and applied the rest like cologne (behind ears, throat, back of neck, wrists). Effects seems to increase when I sweat.
About sweating (and hair). I applied some to my under arms and private area, along with Shine. NOT suggested (except to find out if it’s cool for you). In one word, stinks. Don’t know why. Instant Shine “stinks” to me anyway, so that may be it. Shine’s a great product though, does what it says. Spraying Shine and adding A314 in hair on head is fine though.
Okay, this is my “tired” review. I may come back and edit for clarity later, but now it’s time for rest.

Edit # 1: I guess Neroli Oil or the pheromones in Instant Shine “stink” to me. Not sure which one, because Neroli is a “musk”, and pheromones come from Human Musk, correct? So not sure which one. Hard for me too cover with “light” colognes (CKBe). Slightly heavier scents (bottom notes, Egyptian Musk) is fine though, except that it alters the finished scent abit, in an “okay” way.
A314 is perfect, and can blend in with anything. I must say though, Instant Shine is a good product too. Without posting a second review, I’ll say that it does what’s stated. I even thought about it in terms of aleving depression or the general “downs”, but I see a few people already mentioned that here 
I also noticed “race” here in the forums in regards to pheromones. Every race I encountered responded positively to the above two phero’s. I, however, again, hate the smell of either Neroli, or the phero’s in Shine. If it’s the phero’s, I wonder if it’s because they are European? (I assume).
