Greetings and salutations, everyone. I am Philip, aged 29, the head cook at a rather successful Asian restaurant in the Fraser Valley of British Columbia. A friend gave me a heads up about you, and I must say that I am very intrigued. About myself; I am pretty much a casebook study of an [INFJ](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/INFJ) (I want more of us!). I am mainly interested in the application of [Pheromones](https://a314.com/shop/) to increase my presence at work and social lubrication elsewhere. Also, a softening of my ‘Confessor’ effect, would be nice. Currently, in social situations, once a person gets to know me they tend to treat me the same way a devout Catholic will treat their Confessor. Ignored until they feel the need to talk about something that troubles them, and someone to ask advice of, a confidant - and that is as far as it goes. I literally have people I’ve never met coming up to me and baring their souls at least once a week. It makes life interesting, but I’d love to be able to turn off that ‘effect’ at will. So, any advice? P.S. Any other Canadians here able to comment about shipping times / costs? ---

Hey Philip and welcome to the forum! What type of presence would you like? You mean… like being a popular guy at work? or you mean like being the guy everyone likes? It’s interesting, I’ve never thought about the effects that being a chef + having pheromones would cause since you do end up smelling like food by the end of the day… Well, in general, to increase your presence overall, ammo would do the trick. It makes you somewhat more of a “sexual threat” if you understand. I believe this has to do with your choice of social outgoings (how you give yourself off to other people in terms of the image you project). If you try to flirt more, women will notice, and if you do not, you will be placed into the FZ very quickly. Pheromones will only make you more interesting, but it is up to you to change that image of yourself. So if your goal is to be attractive to women, go for ammo. I’m not sure what INFJ means but i’m willing to bet the I means you’re an introvert, so grab some IO as well. Heck, you might want to try IJ in order to see the other side of things (IJ has some interesting effects). Anyway, let us know precisely what your goals are so we can give you better recommendations. ---

Well, let’s see… In the kitchen, I would like a more authoritative presence, but not an overbearing one. Some sort of mix with IJ seems most intriguing - and potentially dangerous since tempers tend to flare during busy hours. At work I have to be the guy that’s the center of attention, seeing as I manage the rest of the kitchen staff. Not so interested in a too friendly vibe here, more of an alpha male vibe. Also, usually It’s the chef jacket that smells of food at the end of the day, and that leaves plenty of potential application spots. 😃 As for after hours use, Yes - I’m looking for something to assist in getting past my innate ‘confessability’, which almost always heads to the friend zone (do not pass go, do not collect $200). By the way, INFJ stands for ‘Introverted, Intuitive, Feeling, Judging’, which is a Myers-Briggs Type Indicator of a general personality type. The psychology behind the different subsets is fascinating, and well worth a read. Just considering the plethora of options and combinations available makes my inquisitive side come to the fore. I can’t help but wonder what reactions certain combinations would cause. ---

I’ve briefly read them in the past, but I do not care for personality types. If you label yourself, you’re likely to keep that label. Make what you will of yourself and live it, don’t let someone else make it. For example, I have taken it myself years ago, and I’m definitely introvert in the category, but nowadays i chose to say “so what if i’m introvert, it doesn’t really matter.” Seems simple enough to me. Anyway, the pheromone for respect I would say you should get is a314. It’s a bit pricey but it might be exactly what you want. You may want to combine it with instant honesty for trust and respect. When using a314 for the purpose of seeming more of a potential mate, you might want instant shine and instant openness to go with it. Ultimately, it’s up to you not to be passive when trying to attract but you must put yourself in the position, ie. you must flirt with your target or else you will end up, even with pheromones, the confidant (is that the right spelling?) Anyway, if you have more questions, please come stop by the mens forums. ---

Welcome to pherotalk Chef! We have quite a few Canadians on this site so holla they will come to you or you will find them. When you spoke of your situation IJ & A314 came to mind. IJ is not for work of course but will give you that sexual edge you need so women don’t see you as a friend but as a sexual entity. Just in case you will want to use shine to tone and polish this effect depending on what situation it is because it is high in none it may offend. Of course, because of your personality I think it will be a balanced vibe. A314 is for respect at work and again shine is a great product to use with this so you are more approachable. Now if you are shy you will want to work your way up to A314 and start with instant gentleman. Your gc was issued! ---

I’ve decided to try a ‘test package’ of the to-go sprays, to really see what works and what doesn’t. You know what? A Variety Pack would be a good idea for you guys, so us indecisive newbies wouldn’t have to add so many items to our carts 😃. P.S. The ‘From’ Address in the DHL tracker is absolutely hilarious. > [@](#): > > **Shipment details… > From** > A P R > Beverly Hills, 90210 > United States ---

Well, The product was shipped AND delivered in under two days (across the border!). I must say Just the shipping time amazed me - I’ve had longer ship times for destinations a couple of miles away. I haven’t had enough time to experiment with everything, yet, but I must say that the A314a you guys sent me is worth it for the self-effect alone. Thanks for the upgrade to the a, by the way! Also, there seems to of been a minor mixup in the order, as the [Ammo](https://a314.com/product/ammo/) I ordered was missing, and I was looking forward to playing with it… …but a second container of the a314a was there, so I wasn’t quite so upset. ---

Hey there! So glad you came in and tried out some mones! LOVE the A314a!! I thought that the A314 oil based was great, the A314a is a fast, hard, and heavy Alpha vibe hitter! BTW, I’ve also used BOTH at the same time for some Fast Respect me now vibe with the A314 oil lasting much longer… For the order mixup, I’d suggest you open up a request on the AD store’s help page: [Help Zone :: Androtics Direct](https://a314.com/) Or you can give them a call and have Mickaelia help you out on the AMMO issue. I’ve had a mix up once in my orders and they were quick to remedy the mix up…
