Depends a lot on the mone itself - some diffuse much more freely and easily than others, oil, gel or alcohol base, any other diffusion/scent components, environment, air volume and movement. Indoors/outdoors also makes a huge difference. No easy answer I’m afraid. The one thing I have learned is to **always** work as close as humanly/practically possible with mones - don’t look for hits across a crowded room/across the street. 🙂 ---

Haha mobo hit the nail on the head, that cross the street line made me crack up. With that being said, I’ve gotten hits from women up to about 50 ft. After that it’s probably hard to know the mones are coming from you. ---

Now in the animal kingdom [pheromones](https://pheromonelabs.com/) can travel miles - just to give some perspective. ---

Yeah - but have you smelled the beasties they come-off of? They probably get a good bit of projection from the base stink, never mind the higher sensitivity of animal senses still tuned to using pheros on a primary level. ---

Some interesting facts on moth pheromones: [http://animals.mom.me/attracts-male-moths-female-moths-7524.html](http://animals.mom.me/attracts-male-moths-female-moths-7524.html) > [@](#): > > Female moths release approximately one nanogram of pheromones from a special gland located on the abdomen, or one-billionth of a gram. The amount is too small for other species to detect, but male moths of the same species can detect it within 300 feet. > [@](#): > > male moth pheromones communicate detailed information to potential mates: age, reproductive fitness and ancestry ---

I’ve seen some pretty strong reactions from about 12 feet, and no reaction at all from 3 feet. I think a lot depends on the receptors in the other person too. Some people are just attracted to different types of mones, while the same mix might have no impact on someone else.
