Hi all I think what I am looking forward to most about experimenting with [pheromones](https://pheromonelabs.com/) is not their effect on others (although that is a very real bonus!) but their effect on me. What I would like, if any of you could recommend - and I am open to trying test mixes on this - is something to help me with concentration, attention to detail and dedication to a task. I have to wade through tons and tons of the most boring Government reports you can imagine. Sometimes, I will procrastinate because it is so dull - it is ultimately very rewarding but there is a lot of wheat to chaff. So something to help with that would be great. Also I have to deal with some very erasable, uptight and dominant males. I have ordered some instant openness and instant honesty to try. But, something that would give me an air of confidence would be great. Not something that says “I am the boss here” but something that says “This is a meeting of equals”. If you can imagine at the extreme, something that a woman could wear when meeting with Tony Blair that would not intimidate him, but would not lead him to think he could browbeat you or pull the wool over your eyes. And, more importantly, would give ME more confidence too. Confidence rather than dominance… if you get the gist? Any ideas? 🙂 May ---

I had great results with **TAF** and with **MX135** for getting work done. TAF seems to stop me procrastinating - I just get on with whatever it is I am meant to be doing. It’s great for housework 🙂 MX135 made me feel very on-the-ball in the office, and I was taking charge in situations where I’d normally just sit back. I think those two would be worth trying for your own needs! ---

Ooh.. Thanks! If TAF helps with procrastinating then that is definitely going onto my wish list for the next order! I think I will have to try some MX135 too - I’ve seen so many rave reviews on that one 🙂 May ---

I have to wade through tons and tons of the most boring Government reports you can imagine. TAF and P79 seem to be the winning combo for concentration and focus, at least according to the anecdotal reports on this forum. TAF seems to be the agent for that and P79 is an intensifier, or so it seems. > [@](#): > > Not something that says “I am the boss here” but something that says “This is a meeting of equals”.

I have said that so many times myself, but it suddenly occurs to me that I think women worry too much about seeming “dominant”, which we equate with butch or manlike or whatever. I think I have it deep in my subconscious that even standing up for myself is “dominant”, and many other women do too - and so we get told when we do it! However, since chivalry seems to be dead or at least in a coma, I am not sure what other choice we have. We are usually automatically seen as less dominant because we are women and there is no phero that erases that. Pheros don’t overcome intent, either, so if you aren’t looking to be Hitler without a mustache, it is highly unlikely you will come off like that unless you douse yourself in -none. I like your description “This is a meeting of equals” and for that I would recommend trying the TAL based mixes - search the forum under MX134 and Instant Sexiness A and TAL by itself. Mixes with TAL and TAL itself seem to give a huge boost to self-confidence and work, as you say, on the wearer first. I have had more hits wearing TAL-based mixes where it could not possibly have been inhaled than any other, leading me to believe it does something to your energy and posture and attitude that translates at a distance. I don’t think it will intimidate Tony Blair 🙂 For the big guns in respect, there is A314 and its variants, which is a man’s phero, but I would see how you feel with TAL before you try that. Every person is unique so there is no substitute for experimentation and I would try it all in to-go sizes first. There are things that are sure-fire for everyone else that don’t do a thing for me and vice-versa. ---

Thanks for the post. The reason I don’t want “dominance” in this but “confidence” is that some alpha males already try to get into p_ss_ng competitions with me over leadership. Most true alphas are comfortable enough with their alphadom (is that a word) not to feel an urge to challenge me, but some are a bit more insecure and it gets to be a big issue for them. So, I’m looking for a non-confrontational “I am not in awe of you and I am not going to be cowed into pulling my punches either, so let’s leave the egos at the gate and get on with this” vibe. I might have to consider trying the “respect” stuff and seeing the effect it has on the neurotic insecure alphas at work. To be honest, though, I don’t think I would get the crap I get from some of them if I was a guy. ☹ May ---

[instant sexiness](https://phera.com/product/instant-sexiness/) A due to how i feel as a whole person, keeps me feeling in the flow, dancing through efforts because it speaks to my femininity which i personally require as a roughed-up mom of 2 boys. MX134 is fabulous. highly recommend it. ---

ISexi A or MX 134, or straight TAL are all good for confidence, but for a work setting, I would try 134 first…then, adjust/switch up/tweak as necessary… TAF for focus…I love TAF for work!!
