Friend bought pheromones from review-site links: are those products legitimate?

Field Reports & Anecdotal Experience Men's Pheromone Advice & Field Reports

Hi, i discovered this forum because of a friend of mine, he already bought some pheromones (he’s going to receive them this week), that’s why i went searched about pheromones and finded the best forum, this, and the products androtics direct.

The problem is that my friends didn’t bought them from androtics direct.

he found pheromones here:

  1. pheromone scam | Can The Most Popular Pheromones Get You The Sex You Want?

  2. Do Pheromones Work? A Candid Pheromone Review Human Pheromone Reviews

  3. Pheromones | Androstenol Vs Androstenone Pheromones
    Androstenone pheromone is not the same as androstenol. Androstenol is produced by fresh male sweat, and is relatively attractive to women. The other pheromone, androstenone is produced by male sweat, when that sweat becomes less fresh - after exposure to oxygen. Androstenone is highly unpleasant to women, except during ovulation, when female response to this pheromone changes to “neutral”. Therefore, the sweaty macho-man is likely to be unattractive to most women.

And bought

  1. http://love-scent.com/

And because of some videos se went crazy and bought

the scrent of eros for men

Do you know if this products work? Should i say to him that he was scammed? Or were can we know what pheromones really works?

The 3rd website has a314 listed, it should be reliable?

Thanks for the advices.

Nobody likes hearing that they fell for a scam, but most of those websites contain fake reviews and opinions. A lot of the “3rd party” videos and whatnot are just paid affiliates, who’ll say anything positive to make a buck. They will also often say better things about companies that offer more $, and worse about those that offer less, or who don’t have an affiliate program at all. As investigators say when investigating any fraud, “Follow the money”.

Many of the sites themselves borrow charts and complete sentences and paragraphs from old ads as far back as 1992 and change the product names. (plagiarism and advertising fraud) Some have fake/forged lab analysis papers that fake their purity (which is like saying that Ivory soap is 99.9% pure when it isn’t), including the makers of the otherwise good product SOE as confirmed by Sigma-Aldrich and now Chemir who called the fraud “amateur”. Pherlure is a very involved scam that has a fake university study, which they then used to generate fraudulent publicity with. pherlure.info has part of the story.

Some of the makers of those sites and products are convicted felons. If these sites were selling more commonplace items – cars, TV, maybe even toasters or face cream – you’d see even more jail time for characters like those..

The site you’re on has over 12k real users, and is quite reality based – not all pheromones involve sex, and not all pheromone molecules are the next utopia. love-scent is also real, and has mostly real product, although each manufacturer has widely varying quality and ethics. The Edge is a decent product from a real chemical company that knows better than to outright lie like many of the morons do. aromasciences.com is legit, and from one of the people who originally discovered many of the key pheromone molecules. naturalattraction.com is legit. athenainstitute.com is legit, although some say it’s a bit pricy. kiotech.com is legit.

i have had good results with scent of eros a few years back.

the other two i have not heard good reviews about.

i think with scent of eros for men he will be happy.

see here they back up all of their products.
dare i say most of us here have been here for years.
they dont just sell pheromones,
they research and develope them based on our reports !

this means i can say this worked or that didnt.
i can give specific examples of what i liked and didnt like about the reactions i got, and they gather all this info up and create mixes based on it.

the one thing i can say about being here at androtics is that all involved are on the forefront pheromone technology;
we are included on the cutting edge of the newest of the new;

what you hear tomorow is what we knew a few years ago !!!

do some reading and make your own assessment.
welcome :slight_smile:

Jasmin is right of course. Those sites make money off most the products they list when you click on the link to them. They will tell you what ever it takes to make you buy that product.

Love scent has some good products but they dont make the mones they get them from other vendors and sell them. Like a pheromall. Some are good some are not that great.

Scent of eros is a great product. Some people like chikira but its not top of the line in popularity. Pherlure just flat out sucks.

You gotta be careful who you buy from. Anyone can put up a cheesy site and write a million reviews. Try to get the opinion of live members like here on this forum or Love scent has one to. Ours is better though, sorry couldnt help myself :stuck_out_tongue:

Like this statement here is not totally true. While there are times of the month when women are more attracted and react stronger to anone the rest of the month they are not naturally repelled or neutral. I have been exposed to it a lot and many of my friends have as well, We become aroused 80% of the time from it. There may be levels of arousal depending on the situation and environment though. I never find the smell unpleasant even after exposed to oxygen.

Also women produce both anone and anol as well as men just in different amounts

Remember thats just one study and pheromones are still a ongoing science. I am interested in the studies but I tend to believe what I can see and feel more.

I have a rule I rarely break when it comes to pheromone products. They have to come from either Love Scent or Androtics Direct. Love Scent is pretty good at stocking only legitimate brands. Androtics Direct makes its own stuff and is the best there is, in my experience.

The Pherotalk Forum is one of the few places where you will get an honest answer from people who know and have tried varoius pheromone products, about how good a product is, etc.

About 100% of the advertising you see, especially on the internet, youtube, various websites, etc. is fraud, even when it includes legitimate products. Especially the ones that compare one product to another (and that goes a thousand fold if they are pushing Pherlure…an outright scam).

You have several good examples in this thread…pushing Icebreaker (I believe the guy who makes that stuff is still in prison, lol). That product is BS. The other products listed are of poor quality. The LAST product listed is A314 (made by Androtics Direct)…probably one of the best pheromone products that exists. You see the scam here directed at people who use Androtics Direct products? Hey, if A314 is so good, those others must be awesome…not.

The Askmen article is just a paid advertisement. Like most whores, you pay your money and they do and say whatever you tell them to. Pherlure does nothing…nothing at all.

After reading the Do Pheromone’s Work article, I have to say that I agree with most of what he is saying. He’s obviously actually gone out and tested those products…many of which I own myself. I disagree with his ranking, however, and more than a little bit on how he uses products together. Also, there are alot of good ones he left out. It’s a rare, decent attempt at describing what’s out there with pheromones. It just has alot of gaps.

Scent of Eros is a decent product. It’s not for me though. If I were to summarize the effect it has, it presents a rather masculine aura, and not much else. A314 is better is almost every way. Still, it’s worth using if you bought it already (my supply of gel packs for this is almost gone).

Chikara is an OK product. Some guys swear by it. I find it very unreliable. When it works, it has a strong sexual vibe to it. Problem is, it doesn’t work very well, at least for me. When my supply of gel packs for it is gone, I won’t get any more.

Pherlure…might as well toss the bottle in the trash. Well, at least test it out first. But I wouldn’t expect anything.

I thought great, a pheromone company I hadn’t hear of! Turns out they makes mones for friggen aquaculture and commercial fishing! I didn’t realize fish used mones! UltraBite is one of their products:

This is right up there with DuPont Boarmate (mones to get pigs to fuck).

Boarmate?

7

Will this work on fat girls then??

ha

8

I imagine UltraBite could be used in some rather diabolical ways. Could be a great Friday the 13th story. Add a litter of UltraBite to the water to attract biting fish at popular resorts. Tiger sharks are always hanging around reefs in the South Pacific…

Thanks for all the anwers and great support. I see most of them are just review that are scams, we see a lot in the web so it’s too difficult to know what are the real ones. And fake studies?? I can’t believe :open_mouth:

I think i have opened my eyes to those snake oils. If you see a hot girl promoting the product is because it’s a scam :stuck_out_tongue:

So let’s resume this topic, please let me know if i have failed anything:

scams: pherlure, scrent of eros (doesn’t do too much), icebreaker

reall companyes: androtics direct, love scent (some bad others good, chikara is +/-) // naturalattraction.com, athenainstitute.com,

Is great that androtics help us and read our feedbacks.

tisha, 80% aroused all the time? lol :smiley:

Please let me know more great products outhere and more scams, thanks :wink:

I wouldn’t put Scent of Eros on the scam list. It’s actually a pretty popular pheromone product that alot of people swear by. It’s just not something I find particularly useful though. Others might disagree with me on that…perhaps quite vigorously.

12

Pheros are very individual things some will work for you and some won’t. If you stick with the legit sites (Here and LS) you stand a good chance. A good example is Chikara. I tried it several times, (I was one of the beta testers) and it didn’t do anything for me yet a lot of people love it. That’s how it works and why, while people here can give *recommendations, you need *to experiment on you to find out what will work for you.

13

I understand, depends of the people of course, but the products from androtics looks like they work always 100%.

So let’s update the list:

scams: pherlure, icebreaker

not too good, depends of people: scent of eros, chikara

reall companyes: Androtics direct, love scent // naturalattraction.com, athenainstitute.com
