Am I tolerant to pheros?

All the pheros I used (look at my signature) only caused subtle reactions to none at all. No serious self effects and no hits at all (except from dogs). I do not know what to do… Should I use more sprays??? I use about 2 to 4 sprays of most of the pheros. Especially MX135 only smells like cherry that has been laying in sugar for years… no other effects!
HELP ME! :confused: I would be really thankful for your help!

Hi Sweetscent! The fact that you’re already seeing subtle reactions is a good thing. It often takes some experimenting with application points, number of sprays, etc. to find your “sweet spot”.

I think that as you experiment more, you will also find that some people around you will react strongly to even a spray or two, while others seem not to notice anything. That doesn’t mean they are not being affected… sometimes it means they are just better at hiding their reactions.

MX135 is a powerful mix that can give really good results, as many of the women here can tell you. I have issues with the scent too…I think it’s too strong…and don’t use it that often because of that…That’s OK, not every product works for everyone.

BUT…I have had good hits using 1 spray of MX135 to the chest and 3 sprays of Instant Shine to the neck/forearms (I don’t overlap the different scented mixes when applying).

Anyway, I guess what I’m trying to say is keep trying out your mixes in different environments with different people (some who already know you, some who are total strangers, etc.) and just spend some time observing their reactions and interactions with you.

You already said you saw some subtle reactions…part of experimenting with pheros is learning to become more observant and notice the behavior of other people. A lot of their reactions WILL be subtle. None of us get THE BIG HIT everytime we go out of the house…not by a long shot!!! But it’s fun to keep trying :slight_smile:

Sweetscent, do you wear all of those together?

No! :smiley:
But I mixed some together to get some effects… And nothing really happened…

Wow, thanks for writing so much! :slight_smile:
Yeah, I guess my expectations are too high…
Maybe the congruence is not working, because I normally have a serious facial expression and IS does not really work with that… Dunno…
Anyway I will follow your advice and keep on testing…

Each product here has a mix of several different pheros created in exact proportions to achieve desired effect. If you mix them, you run the risk of diluting them or canceling out… maybe try one at a time, gradually increasing sprays every few hours/days until you get “hits.” Once you’ve mastered each product then try adding in another (not mixing-which changes the properties, just spritzing). Ex., I love to wear Instant Honest and Is/A together, but I choose different points on my body to spray, though some women do layer, thats personal preference.

Tessa, I also love mix 135, but scent does scream out chemical romance covered by cheap chocolate or bad grapefruit, I really wish neroli were an option for that one.

@Sweetscent: Congruence is the most important thing when working with pheros. If you seem unapproachable, no amount of Instant Shine is going to help. But the good thing is, with a little practice, you can easily turn that around.

A little smile and a few seconds of eye contact can make a huge difference, even without the pheros.

It instantly makes you seem approachable, confident and friendly. Sometimes people don’t smile back, but whatever! Maybe they’re a little introverted too :slight_smile: Either way, it has no downside.

It takes a little practice if you’re not used to it, but after only a little while, it will become second nature. It also makes dealing with people a lot easier and more pleasant. If you seem confident, they will respect you.

@Julia: I have wished for neroli scented MX135 since I got my first to-go bottle of it, LOL! I always thought it was funny that people on the forums always describe this one as smelling like “cherry”, “almond”, “vanilla”, “amaretto”, etc…pretty much anything BUT chocolate!

Mx335 is the same thing with a different scent try that next time maybe? :slight_smile: I have the whole do not mess with me look down.

Its actually nice if you can keep in mind your expression and make a conscious effort to smile people especially those who are used to mr serious face tend to react pretty dramatically.

Its cute. ^.^ I like people when they’re at their best.

Scent . . . . do you think you intimidate your targets in some way - even WITH pheromones ?

Scoupe has a good point… maybe something to look at.

Btw Tessa, I forgot to mention mx 335 is the one that is grapefruit.. you may enjoy it, but personally I find it still to be reeking chemical cocktail, unless you manage to create a powerful cover scent… (Im still looking for a cover for this one).

No, I do not mean that, but since you mentioned that, it also makes sense…
You are a genius! :smiley:
