Dabs vs sprays

I’m a fan of taking off the top and just dabbing the stuff onto my finger instead of spraying it. It seems to conserve fluid, since spraying usually has a good portion of the droplets just escaping into the air without ever landing on you. I’ve found it takes between 4-6 dabs to = a spray, although I’d like to know an exact number. Anyone else do this?

Good idea!

although dabbing method is more suitable for oil based pheromones like the A314. The basic idea of using spray method is to cover a larger area on body & clothings for best effects and since it is alcohol based, it diffuse faster.:slight_smile:

Who said you had to put 4-6 dabs in the same spot? depending on how you do it, you could actually get a larger area. This works great for your arms, considering those who spray their arms probably miss with half the spray as it goes right by your arm and into the abyss.

A great advantage of these spray bottles of Androtics is that it prevents contamination of the product. I’m not sure how the mones react to these…

Dabbing is imprecise. Mix, composite, determine your dosage and apply.

^^^ that is probably the best way to get proper diffusion and such. However, the thing I don’t like about mixing is that now you have a set ratio of pheros that you can’t change. Depending on the situation, you might need a little more androstenol, but not any more androstenone. -nols diffuse and are gone so much faster, so if you reapply the nols in the middle of a party (which I like to do), you might end up ODing on -none if they’re both in a mix.

I guess to each his own.

Rome wasnt built in a day, and most mixes arent perfected in a day either.

Tater often does a primary vial and prepares 1-2 accent vials that can be used to push the results one way or another. Recently, ive stopped adjusting and just let things play out. Reliability and repeatability are more important to me than on-the-fly corrections.

mr tater i like ur policy, i think u have to sumtimes bite the bullet and let it work out, for good or bad. u can always carry to go bottles or like lengendary tater have vials to swing the result to a more adventerous side.

What ive noticed is that when i try to push in one direction, i end up regretting it.

Make your plan for the evening and stick with it. If it doesnt work out, thats what tomorrows for.

What do you mean by this? You mean if you change signatures in the middle of a night? I’ve found it helpful in certain situations, as long as you don’t overdo it. If a party/gathering seems dull I add a little androstenol and it very often works.

Or my favorite thing to do this with is on dates. I start out with some A314 + social pheros (IFM would probably work wonders once I get my hands on it). Very non-offensive and comforting/ice breaking pheros. If the date is going well, I gradually add a few dabs of The Edge a couple of different times during the outing and gauge her response. If she’s responsive, I’ll later add a little more later. It’s worked more often than not. As long as it isn’t a HUGE abnoxious change, just a gradual one, then my targets take it in stride and accept the gradual shift in mood from comforting to sexual.

Taters strategy has changed recently. See my World Domination and start OWNING women threads. Ive found that, if i get a very diverse core mix going, i dont need to add anything and can easily go from a work setting to a social setting to a romantic/pickup setting back to a work setting and everything just flows. I dont think you have to choose between being the fun guy and being the guy you should respect. If you get the right pheros at the right amounts, it just works.

Hmmm. That conflicts with the points made by some of the posters Here, although I haven’t read the whole thing, yet.

It does sound like an easier method to the madness, though. Your method demonstrates the importance of personality and social skills. Kind of a shotgun approach, covering all the bases and such, and using your personality to change the mood, rather than soley relying on pheros to do the work for you.

The hard part, I’m guessing, is getting the ratios right. Too much A314 can kill all chances of the social pheros working well for you, for example.

Also, don’t you notice different rates of diffusion, though, or do your mixes balance it out? Don’t you notice the effects of, say, androstenol wearing off much faster than some other, more persistent pheromones in your mix?

Yeah, but i disagreed with them in that thread too. :stuck_out_tongue: Im not saying im right and theyre wrong, just that there may be another approach.

I hadnt thought of it that way, but its a good assessment. Rep points for that!

My recommendation is to use slightly above the minimum required for your desired range set. But its also important to remember that A314 is a base, a starting point, and you need to add a little this, a little that to top off different dimensions of your phero signature, leaving enough room for your natural signature to amp up and give you that real-life ability to flow without OD’ing.

I almost always composite into a fragrance. Possibly because of the dispersion equalizers in the fragrances im using, i dont have much trouble with one phero fading before the rest of the mix, and even if it does, it seems like a natural variation, or perhaps my body ramps up its own production in that area.

I have a core based on IH and another based on MX102, which im out of, hoping to finally get some A314 and build a core on that, or possibly on Dirty. I would LOVE to build a core on Dirty because that copulin edge might bring out a totally different flavor.

Lets put it this way. A core based on IH is like chicken soup, light and sweet. A core based on MX102 is like beef soup, hearty and a bit soulful. Im hoping a core based on Dirty would be like a seafood soup.
