Hey, How long do these [pheromones](https://a314.com/shop/) last after being applied? The smell and effects seemed to decrease after 3 hours when I first experimented last night. Thanks. ---

It all depends on what your wearing and the conditions(ie temp, humidity,etc) None based products like turn up the heat and ammo, from my experience, last along time. Ive noticed effects the next day. Instant shine seems to go the fastest afew hours. honesty around 5 hrs give or take an hour. a314 has results lasting 6-9 hours. of course they are all strongest the 1st 2 hours you apply, the effects diminish throughout the day. the times i listed were my last noticiable hits. ---

I don’t refresh none. Refreshing ammo got me my first OD. ---

I can wear between 2 and 3. I had 2 on originally, refreshed with another 2 five hours later. It wasn’t a crazy ghosting style OD just obvious signs of attraction decreased with the same gril after I had refreshed. I think there is a stage between sweet spot and OD where hits diminish but your not in OD territory just yet. ---

Some estimates of various spray-phero half-lives by MarkL: > [@Successful Composition](https://pheromonetalk.com/t/successful-composition/7618/2): > > The molecules definitely have different ‘weights’. However, all of these molecules must be fairly “light” – right? – or instead of floating on air currents, they would just fall to the floor. So, the first issue is how does stuff become “airborne” – you can have something which sublimates directly from solid to gas (like dry ice) or you can have a liquid which vaporizes (aka volatiles) like water (which slowly evaporates at room temperature) or alcohol (which evaporates much much faster.) And…
