The first thing that comes to mind when I think of [pheromones](https://a314.com/) effect on other people is what their effect will on the person wearing them. A quick example.. I found this description of the effects of Spaceland on this site: “It is a relaxing, chatty, spacey, product. It tends to hamper peoples concentration and can even cause people to stumble on their thought processes (like forgetting somebody’s name, or what they were doing).”

If Spaceland can cause this reaction to other people, is it possible that it can have the same reaction on the user? If so, then would it be the same with other pheromones such as Androstenone: if I “OD” with it resulting in the expected negative reactions from other people, would it also cause a negative reaction in the user- like irritability or a fowl mood (not as a result of other people’s reaction but a direct reaction to the pheromone)? If not, then please explain to me how the mind can identify this pheromone as its own and, in-turn, not create the effect in the user. E.g. Someone wears Spaceland and it makes me “spacey” but I wear Spaceland and I experience no effects..

I don’t understand and I’d appreciate some light on the subject. And just to be clear, I’m not taking a shot at pheromomes, or the products listed here, or at anyone, for that matter. Just curious.. And I’m not a cat- so don’t kill me.

Thanks Again,

Most of us initially feel some self-effects. The amount varies with the individual from nothing to mild to moderate to, in rare cases, utter panic. However, most find self-effects gradually fade with regular use. Many develop a tolerance and feel little or nothing. After 5 years of regular use, I don’t feel a damn thing. Zippo. Null. And I prefer it that way as I want to be in control and certainly don’t want to fall on my own damn sword!

Also one must realize, pheromone reactions are largely tied to context. For example, cops on a hot woman makes me hard as the Rock of Gibraltar, short-circuit my brain and I do stupid stuff I don’t normally do. Cops in a bottle make me think about Chinese fish sauce and vinegar and wonder if I might hurl. So pheromones on your own body ain’t like pheromones off another live human. Ever notice your shit doesn’t stink after a few seconds but everybody else’s does? pheromones are similar. You need the context of another human being for them to work at their optimal level.

So, after an initial buzz, I wouldn’t worry too much about losing control and falling on your own sword. You’ll just be you but only a little better around your targets.

agreed with most everything there. the part i highlighted however is the main reason behind my preference to spray my skin and hair rather than clothing. i think one of the older [pheromone](https://pheromonelabs.com/) based studies that was conducted using T-shirts from men _did_ provoke significant responses from the women that smelled them , however the responses were nowhere near as strong as when the women were shown a face to go along with the shirt.

back to self-effects, mine have certainly diminished a bit over time. each new product that i try does elicit some response from me, in the same way that the first cup of coffee did 20+ years ago. hell, i opened my first Androtics package in two years just a few weeks ago and when i sprayed Ammo on my chest i got the gut clenching reaction reminiscent of my younger more adventurous psychedelic music listening phase. 😃

-none definitely does make me more aggressive, i noticed the first few times i used Ammo again here in Thailand that i was re-discovering some of the road rage i thought i’d left behind in the states. ☹
