Heya Pingwasha! Amounts really are personal as your own biochemistry is totally an individual thing. What you will want to do first is to find your “sweet spot” through trial and error. First make sure you are clean and in clean clothes, brush your teeth, comb your hair and put on some nice clean clothes. Select the product you want to use and apply one spray or drop somewhere where it can be easily picked up on by whomever is your target. Most women are shorter than men so to have women pick up on your scent the throat or high chest is usually a good spot. I know you are interested as well in getting confidents from the pheros so a good application point may be on the face or high throat so that you can benefit from the self effects. The next partis really important, you must observe your target group and take not of any differences that you see in behavior. Look for subtle things as well like the shy girl who catches you looking and blushes and looks away. Keep in mind your targets are different people, some will react boldly, others not so much so keep a sharp eye. If you don’t see noticeable reactions, the next day double the application. Max effect on most of the 1x products is 1-2 drops sprays so especially with the attraction/status products you want to be reeeeaaaallll careful you don’t wear too much or things could get out of hand. Some people purposely O/D so that they can note the effects, know what it looks like. You will want to keep your applications as low as possible to save on product. Not only is this better for your wallet, but from time to time product lines discontinue and you would hate to see the most effective weapon in your arsenal depleted before the “big dance”.
