Hey guys! My name is mike, I’m from Miami, FL and I’m 20. I’m currently going to one of the local universities and studying political science with economics. I am also really into fitness and normally go in for my workout sessions 4-5 times a week religiously. Really got into it a couple years back since I considered myself to have a scrawny frame and ever since then I have gotten amazing results, certainly not scrawny anymore and consider it a lifestyle. Other than that, I work at a small chain store and currently trying to get certified as a trainer on top of balancing school. Well I guess we all have our own reasons on why we would use [pheromones](https://pheromonelabs.com/) and mine would have to be that I’m kinda on the shy side and would like to use these pheromones to assist me on getting out of that stage if that makes sense? I first heard of pheromones through some television show a while back and disregarded it until one of my friends started using it and said it worked great for him. I was curious, but of course skeptical as well and decided to do my own research. I came across a few websites that seemed reliable, but whenever I would research the product they always had negative reviews and that turned me off. I finally came across this website and by far this one looked the most reliable and legit to be honest lol, especially since it has a lot of member feedback. I’ve looked through a variety of the sites forums before signing up and have already come to some conclusions on what to buy, but of course I would want a second opinion. Like I mentioned before, I’m a bit on the shy side. Not that I won’t go up to a girl and talk to her cause I’ve done it numerous times in the past and have had great relationships as a result, but not as often as I should in my opinion. To me I would have to be somewhat reassured before I go up to a girl, like get a smile or two and have a topic of conversation in mind before I take action. After the start up of a conversation I’m normally fine and very social, also when it comes to people that I’m not “interested” in, I have no problem approaching, but could sometimes come off as somewhat cold or just not interested in what they’re saying even though I am. Some mones that I have looked into are IO and ammunition, but I’m still open to suggestions.The main goal I want to get from pheromones is to be more open, approachable, and some assistance/confidence in approaching even though I consider myself confident, I guess I just fear rejection lol. Well thanks for reading guys and would appreciate any suggestions on what I should get. ---

Hi Mike - Welcome to Pherotalk. 🙂 Well, I hope you will find this one of the best phero sites around and that the products are superb. Also remember that not all pheros work for all people and that responses to pheros vary depending on individual and social situations, so do give them a good try in all aspects of your life. To start, have a good read of these threads: > [@An Introduction to Mones: Names, Size, Strength, Use, Effects & Duration](https://pheromonetalk.com/t/an-introduction-to-mones-names-size-strength-use-effects-length-of/43003): > > Welcome to an exciting world of [pheromones](https://a314.com/shop/). By joining our community you have taken a HUGE step in progressing a science that is cutting edge and still in its infancy. This community is globally important in recognizing pheromones, and Neuroinfluence Technology ? and their impact on human communication. There are thousands of posts here and thousands more users. Each one of us, including you, adds a unique dynamic to the community from our individual perspectives, experiences and our research an… > [@Application points 101: a guide to where on the body to apply pheromones](https://pheromonetalk.com/t/application-points-101/53343): > > Originally found here: [Application points 101: chest, neck and ears, and taming -none products under a shirt](https://pheromonetalk.com/t/application-points-101/52170) Application Points 101 You gesture your hand with precision, moving across the audiences olfactory senses, with every calculated move, you enhance their senses and draw them in. You smile as you move around the room, trailing behind you the scent, people look around and spot you, from the corner of your eye, you spot a women, possibly of your dreams for that night. You draw her in wit… Which will cover all the basics on choosing and using pheros effectively. Your initial choice of Ammo and IO is good - They will certainly contribute to the confidence and icebreaking you need but I would also suggest you look at [Instant Shine](https://a314.com/product/shine/) - Which is a great uplifting/social/socially confident and feelgood mix - It helps make you appear great to be around and will if you demonstrate the behaviours to back it up. It is also usable in almost any situation you can think of as it does not contain none, which can have pitfalls in some situations. Although Ammo is well balanced and normally avoids most of them. ---

Hello Mike and welcome to the forum. University is the perfect place to start experimenting with these products - you should have a lot of fun and see some good results. That being said what Mobo said about them not working exactly the same for everyone is true. There are a lot of variables to include you. The thing to remember is that they are not like an Axe commercial. They are more like quiet whispers and you have to get people to act on them. You are also on target with your products. [Ammo](https://a314.com/product/ammo/) and IO are good choices in your situation. The only other thing I would mention would be to think about IShine. Good luck and let us know what you decide to do. ---

Thanks for the input Mobo and Boss and yeah of course I wouldn’t expect them to work like the axe commercial just something to give me an edge which is all I really want from the product. As for IS I mean I never really considered it, but seeing as it is #1 on bestselling and that you guys recommended it I might just purchase it if I get the $25 certificate. Couldn’t hurt getting it, plus it would be like if I’m getting it for free. By the way, I have a couple of question for you guys, what are your experiences with pheromones and do you guys know how the certificate works? ---

I have had good results with the pheros or I would still not be here. It can talke a little effort at first figuring out how many sprays of each work best for you but once you do you are good. The GC works this way: Mickaelia (paid staff) will come by, check out your thread and then email you a GC. When you go to order, there will be a section before you pay where you will put in the GC number and it will take the money off for you. ---

Hi there mike, welcome to the forum! You’ve gotten some excellent help from the BossHank and mobo as usual. 🙂 The GC will be provided in an email that you will copy and paste during your order in the shopping cart. You’ll select a bullet point and then paste your GC and it’ll be reflected on your order. IShine is one of my all time fav mones, in the top 3. I started out my mone usage with it and you won’t go wrong with it, IMO. Mick will be by shortly to gauge your Intro progress! 🙂 ---

Really appreciate all the feedback, but I just have a couple of more questions before I buy my first mones. I wanted to know if x2 the strength would be equivalent to 2 sprays of a regular dosed product. Another question I also had was if ammo + IO + IS would be a good combo while debating wether or not to get IG in place of one of the others. I was reading some of ammo’s reviews and they mentioned going with IO and IS would be one of the better combos and was wondering if anyone has tried the combo. By the way, I noticed the normal size ammo has aprox. 200 sprays but how much does the to-go aprox. have? A lot of questions but I’m a bit curious on buying theses products so I could make the best first purchase. Thanks in advance! ---

YES! Right on as to the dosage. x2 means, 2 sprays of the regular in 1 squirt! 🙂 I’d suggest you do what you had intended, AMMO, IO and IShine. IG is a good base as well, but as you’re starting out and want a boost for you shyness, I like those three to start out. @ 200 for the 30 ml @ 40 for the 5ml ---
