My third order came in, a couple of experimones (beta-androstenol @ 10mcg, A1 @ 5mcg) and something from the putative menu (P79 @ 2.5mcg) and - wahey! - a lovely freebie of to-go [P74](https://pheromonelabs.com/product/p74/) (@ 10mcg) too 🙂, which I’ve been reading up on.  
So I first sprayed two sprays of (regular) IO to the sides of my neck and then added to each side a spray of betanol; thinking that the high alphanol and fragrance in the IO might prime the betanol a bit, and trying to get a handle on the difference from IO alone. I sprayed a third spray of betanol to my throat, and rubbed some on my hand so I could smell it raw and unadulterated during the day.

The smell. This is gonna sound weird, but it is like a “non-smell” to me, I mean I don’t smell anything, but I sniff at it and something happens, and it’s something associational. It is reminding me of a whole Gestalt of things that is quite hard for me to pin down at the moment, but the memory/state clearly goes way back to when I was a child, and it is nice.

I’m getting a feeling very much like my first ever IO tryout (which was my first ever phero-tryout), but more mellow, for sure. Strikingly similar is the organic, but not unpleasant aftertaste in my mouth, and the feeling of being pulled in two directions. What I mean by the latter is: I’m keen to go out and mingle to check things out, but I’ve been playing music while getting ready, which is starting to sound really awesome, and I also want to stop and listen to more! These things I remember vividly from my first IO experience.

More self-effects: once I’m outside I’m constantly thinking “Do I know him/her? He/she reminds me of somebody…” - everyone seemed familiar.

I went to the usual coffee shop, to a rather deserted pub and just walked around the park again: I did get smiled at by a few women in the street, in a way that gives me slight pause. It seems like they initiated the eye contact and smiling rather than me. And we’re talking like split-second differences in timing, but these, I think, are significant in nonverbal terms. And I chatted to a few friends, but nothing out of the ordinary there that I spotted.

Ummm… I felt a bit naked actually without any A314 on (I’ve been wearing at least 1 drop per day for the past week)… But still, I do like this particular vibe 🙂. I would like it if the strange “non-smell” was as evocative for others as it is for me, and in a good way too. That’d give me a heck of a leverage with anything from sarging to business applications to just making people feel good.

Which reminds me, I really should read Proust’s “À la recherche du temps perdu” properly one time, and not just the bluffer’s guide version with the famous passages in, LOL 😃

Hey thanks for your interest! I’m glad to be of help, dude. OK, so beta-androstenol is the main kick in Instant Honesty…

[Instant Openness](https://a314.com/product/instant-openness/) - 70% alpha and 30% beta androstenol  
Instant Honesty - 70% beta and 30% alpha androstenol

Since I already had Instant Openness, I wanted to be able to tweak it with the reportedly “deeper” vibe of the betanol which gives Instant Honesty its quality.

also, this thread sold me on the idea:

> [@First day on Experimone beta androstenol: more talking and laughing at work](https://pheromonetalk.com/t/beta-androstenol/365):
>
> I’ve started using the Experimone Beta Androstenol. Today is my first day. So far I’ve experienced more interaction with my fellow employee’s. There’s been more talking and laughing. I think I’m going to like this mone.

& I promised April and Amy I would file reports on the putatives, too. Well, I’ve read a lot of useful threads on P79 and P74 now, and it’ll be good to give something back to the community 🙂

Oh, I just noticed the tooltip for androstenol now, which likens alphanol to having a couple of glasses of champagne. Now that was my exact impression with my very first mission wearing IO. I think I posted somewhere those very words, actually 🙂

I’m gonna try pushing for 4x Turn Up The Heat (the regular stuff) this weekend, as I finally got away with 3. I think betanol is actually going to prove to be a pretty good buffer for this sort of heavy -none caper. I’ve done my reconnaissance and I think I’ll get away with the -none at this party, suitably buffered of course. Betanol may actually suit me a bit better than the “social butterfly” effect that Instant Openness has sometimes with me.

Oh yeah, I might have the rest of that [Instant Female Magic](https://a314.com/product/instant-female-magic/) to-go in my pocket just in case…🙂
