Hi all, I have looked forward to trying a [pheromone product](https://a314.com/shop/) for a while, and finally took the plunge. If the product helps, I will certainly be a returning customer. I hope it works as well for me as it has for many others! Evan Boston, MA ---

Hey Evan, Welcome! You found the right place to take the plunge as theres alot of honest people here. They have a great little promo right now for new users where you can get a $25 gift cirtificate to wards [buying pheromones](https://a314.com/shop/). Great if you want to try some out and see if they work. But I believe you you read some of the forum posts you can make a few determinations thats somethings working before you even try 🙂 Anyways to qualify for the promo and so that we can help give our opinions on what would work best for your situation you need to tell us more about yourself. For example approx. how old are you, what do you want to accomplish with pheromones and where. Also whats your personality like, are you shy or out going? Depending on your answers theres a whole bunch of different pheromones that would work best for you. One thing you will find is that pheromones will help you get noticed but you do still need to be presentable. Cheers! Daset ---

Welcome to the friendliest, most informative forums dealing with the science of [pheromones](https://a314.com/) and how they can be used to increase social interaction! So what type of social interaction are you looking for? Daset has asked some good questions and we know that you are in Boston so that is a start. It really is important to get information from you about who you are and what you are looking for to recommend the products that will work best for you. Are you looking to increase social interaction with the ladies? Where do you normally go to meet women and what type of women are you hoping to attract? Do you seek a long term relationship or looking to hook up as often as possible? Are you seeking respect at work or among your peers? Do you envy the “bad boy” and want to get some of that vibe going? I always feel a little bit uncomfortable asking questions but providing the answers to such questions benefit you in 2 ways. First they help to qualify you for the $25 gift certificate mentioned earlier. And 2ndly (and most importantly, gives the type of information required) so that our resident phero experts can suggest the products, amounts and application points that will be most effective to help you acheive the level of interaction you seek. No lie, there are mixes that get as specific as to make one more attractive to MILF’s. And the experts know what products mixes and ratios can help get you where you want to go. Now, something important to keep in mind, is that pheros will help you get to where your going in terms of social interaction but, you need do the travelling. In other words, the products will help you give off a vibe, and some can even increase the wearers self confidence but you have to play the part. Think of pheros like the scent equivalent of a costume or expensive suit. They signal to your target that you are an “alpha male”, a sex god or a charismatic fun guy, but if you don’t act the part, your targets will become confused and cease to think of you in that way. I’ve determined that one of the products used to increase attraction in females is not really working for me, because I’m failing to play the part of the “pimp” that the phero signals. No worries because due to experimentation with some of the other products, I have found some things that have positive effects that I can be more congruent with and consequently work better for me.

Dear all, Thanks for all the friendly responses. A little about myself: I’m 20 years old. I was born in Boston and have lived in a town nearby my whole life. I am currently in my sophomore year of college. After college I hope to attend medical school and eventually become a pediatric surgeon. I love to travel, read, ski, play and listen to music and hang out with friends. I love people and can be outgoing, reserved, or in-between. Finally, I am definitely more of the relationship type than the hook-up type, though hook-ups can occasionally be positive experiences. Why I’m here: Last spring I was randomly assigned to give a report on pheromones for a neuroscience class. In my research I stumbled across [SmartMones.com](http://SmartMones.com). I was surprised by and skeptical about what I read, and at the time I didn’t think much of it. As months went by, though, I found myself getting curious. Do those products really work? So, a few days ago I checked [SmartMones.com](http://SmartMones.com) and since most of their products are quite reasonably priced, I decided to give it a try. Each effect listed for all the SmartMones products sounds terrific and is a response that any man (or woman) would desire. For me, though, I would especially like to be perceived as a more eligible boyfriend for “alpha” women. I am definitely attracted to women with Type A personalities, but for whatever reason I don’t seem to naturally attract such people (both women and men) as much as I do more relaxed, easygoing and introverted people. Though I am very internally competitive, I do not come off as particularly dominant or excessively masculine. This is my personality; I am who I am and don’t wish to consciously alter that aspect of my persona. However, if I could be perceived as more of a romantic, seductive, and dominant man, I would gain the confidence to approach the type of women (and most importantly, my high school crush of four years – an “alpha” girl!) with confidence. I am totally open to suggestions and advice – you guys are the experts. I look forward to hearing from all of you and hope that you can guide me in the right direction! Evan ---

And I’ll tell you what really turned her head for me. What I found most useful in my first order was A314, [Instant Gentleman](https://a314.com/product/gentleman/) to-go, Instant Openness and TUTH. I also has dome Instant Jerk but I’ll get to that later. I found the A314 got me more respect from her, it increased my social value and so I became more worth her time. I found she was trying to make plans with me in the future where as before she would avoid future plans. A314 also gave me more confidence, I didn’t hesitate to speak my mind and I felt powerful. Instant gentleman enhanced the A314 when together or even by its self it attracts attention. Together with A314 I was very slick and laid back, my answers were witty and very on top of things. I could better steer the conversations with sexual innuendos and subtleties which she loved. Instant gentleman by its self always puts me in the center of attention. Its the more social version and subtle then A314. But I believe together is very powerful and perfect for getting an Alpha females attention. (unless shes into submissive guys). The final element was adding a sexual vibe. To do this we use -none products such as ammo, TUTH, and Instant Jerk. Ammo has been out of stock for a while so I had orders TUTH and Instant Jerk. TUTH is good to add a little -none and experiment with. Most people say to just use it mix with other socials at parties and in the bedroom which I would agree with. I did get some good attention with this. But with the alpha female I’ve been with surprisingly I got the greatest reaction from Instant Jerk. This is a stronger -none product that is supposed to imply you have been with another woman. I’m not 100% sure she got jealous but it differently got alot of attention. It totaly depends on the womans personality, the one I was with has mentioned many times before that she likes guys that she knows has been with other girls. It increases there value to her. Anyways, you may also be interested in instant openness for general use and Instant Honestly for closer conversations with who your pursuing. IO increases the desire and quantity of conversations while instant honesty increases the depth of conversation. Bother are fun to use, and mixed with the other pheromones, makes you more approachable meaning woman more more likely to act upon what they are thinking. Be sure to tell us about your experiences on the forums and don’t be afraid to ask more questions!🙂 Cheers Daset ---

Hi all, Daset: Thank you for your friendly and extremely helpful response. I have already taken your advice into consideration and ordered one bottle of Alpha314, to experiment. I just wanted to give an update about my own journey so far. Yesterday I received my first order. Just as everyone else has commented, it was on-time and came with a generous free gift and personalized note (wow!). Needless to say, I have been amazed by the results. I first applied one spray of Instant Shine. Within minutes I felt my mind clear itself of all the accumulated small worries and anxieties built up over the course of a normal day. I felt happier but also tremendously focused. While practicing the piano for a piece I will be playing soon I found that I was laser-focused and did not get the usual “zings” of anxiety after missing a note here and there. I played an entire run-through feeling as I do when I play my best. Today before work I applied two sprays of IS and have been so amazed by the results that I had to share. The one alpha-personality “tough guy” at work – who rarely initiates conversation with anyone except other professionals – initiated a friendly conversation with me while I was eating lunch. My female co-workers have been unanimously friendly and some have been flirtatious. The two other male co-workers are always friendly and outgoing to me – so they have been be a good control group. I would love advice on three things: -In peoples’ experience, what are successful amounts of IS, TUTH and Alpha314 for someone my age (20, almost 21) to apply? -What are the [putative pheromones](https://pheromonelabs.com/product-category/advanced-pheromones/putative-pheromones/) and have people had positive experiences using any? -Are there any tips from more experienced users that can enhance the positive results and/or minimize the (possible) negative results? All my interactions so far with Androtics Direct and this forum have been unusually positive and helpful I am very glad to have found this community online. Thank you all. Evan ---

Hey! Nice story, good to see the first use was a good one. Eveyone has different body chemestry and so they need to test for what is the best amount and or ‘sweet spot’ for the pheromones there using. You can do this by sloly increasing the amount you use and see peoples reactions. for example one day do one spray, next day do two, next three.., You know you have had too much when people start getting annoyed with you or ignore you. Juding from what you have a safe zone for A314 would be 1-2 drops and 2-5 sparays with IS but you should test that out. As for the P’s, P83 seems to be fun to play with along with P79, a few others… But not eveyone gets the same results with the P’s all the time. Maybe you should start off playing with some MX’s… MX353 is great for attraction.
