A new member and I saw studies on pheromones in the past and it seemed intriguing. I’ve read a few posts and they seem like they work but I am still skeptical it might just be a placebo and heighten confidence because you think you have that.
I’m willing to believe and want to try it out. I am 30 years old, I’ve gone through a few relationships, the most recent one had a kid and let her cheat on me 6 times before breaking up. Although, I love my son to death and we get along for his sake I’m trying to meet someone new but my self-confidence and self-esteem are shattered, they weren’t that great even before this. I only end up with someone if they make the first move. I can talk for hours on certain topics but am not a good conversationalist as far as keeping things going and not sounding boring (I am not a boring person, just I have social anxiety and can’t convey my interests well.) I’ve recently contacted a few women for online dating and want things to go as smoothly as possible when we meet up so I’m thinking this might help.
I’ve given a lot of my story, just wondering if these products will really help me out. Thanks, this seems like a great community.
Probably many women in online dating will have kids. Also apprehensive about whom they meet online. I would suggest either IG or A314 B spray with AMMO. But I would watch the AMMO until 2nd date. It depends whether you really want to project the family guy or the trustworthy one. Now, you could add IO to that, although it does tend to lower the respect and status of androsterone products, as reported by members here. Since the official SmartMones store supports the idea of IO/A314 or IO/IG, I bring that to your attention.
So I"m interested in the IO/A314 mix, I’m just wondering how certain pheromones hurt others. I want her to like and respect me, be attracted to me, maybe use that on the first 2 dates and use the AMMO on the 3rd? What is a good starting point if I’m skeptical and want to try something and see results?
Thanks for your reply by the way! I’m already researching these and I’m glad for helpful guidance.
Pheros will help you but you will also need to do quite a bit of work in other ways to get your confidence, self image, standards and self-esteem up to scratch again.
Pheros may give short term self effects but you can get used to them all too quickly and they vary widely between individuals and by individual Phero. Much better to use more tangible and permanent methods, then regard the help from pheros as a secondary bonus that helps all your other good work hang together better and more effectively.
Also, some pheros may help you in some ways but hinder you in relating to other people - Very high status/masculine combos need to be watched. They may help you feel good about yourself but may make you seem severe, remote and uncommunicative to others. You need to work those products in a way that shows people you are interested, and open to interaction. You may also need to do more work to “lead” a conversation/interaction compared to lighter socials.
Initially, you may want to consider lighter, more social products that help ease and engage people and work on becoming comfortable with more superficial conversation and interaction. IG, IO, Instant Shine and Ammo are all in this area.
Personally, I’d avoid using IO and A314 together in the any mix as IO weakens A314 to a very great degree. The IH/IS combo is what I’d use instead of IO as it is a superb mature conversation/bonding vibe and the mainly betanol IH does not do anything like the same damage to A314 as the mainly Alphanol IO.
IO/IG is also a smart/conversation mix you can also use with no problem and at 30, you need not be too shy about having a small amount of Ammo in your mix from the beginning as you will almost certainly be needing a higher Androstenone dose compared to a youngster. You can always increase the dose for subsequent dates.
The main thing is that you convey some amount of sexuality from the beginning if you want to avoid the friendzone.
I felt my honest introduction would give me the best answers, which so far it seems so. The products seem right on, I’m new so can I buy all of those and use them together? I have already been in touch with a girl in online dating so I’m guessing IG/IO/Instant Shine would be good for the first 1 or 2 dates and if things are going well use Ammo? I somehow think using everything at once would be bad and make her just confused.
What is IS? Is that the A314? So would you recommend IH/IS or IO/IG/Ammo more? I have no problems yet in the sexual area, it’s more about getting them there and I’m obviously more concerned with someone to spend my life with as well.
IH/IS - In this combo, the IS steers the IH away from being possibly “too deep” and introduces a lighter/more pleasurable/feelgood vibe which makes conversation much easier. It also helps build confidence and trust in you in a way that IO does not. Its perfect for mature adults getting to know each other in all ways and it complements A314’s status/mature adult vibe nicely Compared to that, IO/IG is a much lighter chatty/sociable/smart/dashing combo but ultimately with much less substance. It does however go-better in places where conversation might be very difficult (gigs, clubs etc) and around much younger women - A314 can be fickle there.Mid 20s is when they tend to begin to really tune-in to A314 and particularly 30s and over but you can find occasional exceptions at any age.
I would have some, even just one spray of 1x Ammo in there for scent consistency (Ammo’s scent is much stronger than other products) and just to give a small amount of underlying sexuality - Either mix will give ample moderation and it won’t be surprising/off-putting when you increase the dose over subsequent dates. At 30, you are getting into the age range where I would expect you will find your ideal dose will be several sprays and maybe the 2x will eventually prove a good economy/scent control measure.
If you’ve not seen it yet, the Introduction pack for Men gives you a togo of the whole consumer range for a reasonable price and you can use your GC/signup bonus too:
That way you can try the lot and see what suits you best.
MX297 is also a product I have seen deliver interesting/positive results around people with social anxiety, although it is a full-on party hero that may not be best for a first date.
Alright, so IH/IS and A314? (the current woman I’m going for is 28 so it should still be good). IO/IG if I ever want to try the younger scene. Put a spray of Ammo in there either way, that sound about right? Also, do I put 2 sprays of the others on me and is it all on the neck?
Broadly, that’s how I’d look at it, yes. 28 is certainly into the age where status mixes are fully usable and I’d expect she’d be quite happy with a reasonable whack of Androstenone - Women get the taste for higher/more overt doses as they age.
I’d keep the Ammo/A314 up around the neck and split the IS/IH between the neck/throat and forearms (talk with your hands a bit ). Think of how an interaction builds - you want the status/sexual impact to be strongest when she is physically closest to you but the socials are more diffuse.
All the sprays can be layered together ok - its only oil pheros that need to be kept apart from sprays. Just leave a minute or so between each layer to let them dry-down.
So pheremones for how I am perceived go on my neck/throat and ones that effect herself put closer to the arms so they wave more in her direction? So use all of those sprays 2 minutes apart right before I leave.
Another question, what is a good mix to be respected at work and give off a great vibe? I’m guessing IS/A314? Respect and positive intereaction with a positive feeling for myself.
First thing I guess is what should I get that in your mind will prove to me that these make a difference? I am all about spending over $100 on that amazing starter kit if I’m proven that something makes a difference.
More or less - its partly to maximise any self effects and because their signature seems to key-in better if they are to the centre. Socials are less personality-dependant, for overall moderation, so can be spread wider.
Yup - try to leave 30mins or so between you application and meeting her to let the pheros fix on your skin and the scents settle.
A314/IS is a great work mix - esp in team situations although I do try to just work with A314 as a baseline due to IS being shorter acting. I add the IS as needed.
If you plan on using A314 at work long-term, investigate the oil. Its much more subtle and long lasting per application, so more economic in the long run.
Again, thank you so much for how helpful you’re being. You don’t know how much it means in a forum, especially with a user of your status. I saw you on other threads and was hoping you would respond.
Oils last around 8 hours direct on to skin and up to 10-12hours if applied over a very thin application of quality hand lotion - although the penalty is a slight reduction in diffusion range but its been imperceptible in the work scenario for me.
