Well, my first eagrely-awaited shipment of pheromones arrived this week, so I decided to try them out yesterday. Here’s what I found…
During the day I went out shopping in the post-Christmas sales, and opted for 2 sprays of Ammo (one to each wrist) and 1 spray of Instant Openness to the hair. I do like the smell of the Ammo, but although the Instant Openness had a generally nice smell to it, I kept recollecting the smell of the chimpanzee area at the zoo. This was from one spray! This has made me a bit wary of using more than one spray of the stuff - is this just me?!
Anyway, I went out shopping and noticed a little bit more eye contact from both men and women. I also noticed that when staying in one area for more than 3-4 minutes, I would notice a number of women loitering in my general area, usually with their backs facing me. I think what I noticed was too subtle to definitively put down to the pheromones, especially since wearing them was obviously making me much more observant.
After a shower and thorough scrubbing of the application points, I applied two sprays of Instant Female Magic to the front of the neck, with a covering of Issey Miyake, and went over to my girlfriends’ place. I knew she was in a rather fragile/upset mood due to recent family issues, so my intent was to cheer her up and provide some comfort. After the first 10-15 minutes she definitely changed from her initially cold and upset mood. I think she would have without the pheromones, but perhaps they sped up the process. Then, we were standing and I held her, and she just started taking in these deep breaths with her face near my neck, where I’d applied the Instant Female Magic. She didn’t say anything about the fragrance, but became very noticably mellow, chilled-out and very relaxed. The anxiety she’d previously had just vanished, and she was instantly back to her normal self. I think this was the pheromones at work!
So all in all, an interesting first trial of the pheromones!! However I am still left with this nagging feeling of going round with a noticable gorilla cage fragrance…!
