What do you guys think about always including the exact amount (if known, of course) of [pheromones](https://a314.com/shop/) used. I see so many posts like “I put on some P493, and it was so fun!” What was the concentration in the bottle? This will all affect the total amount used.. This would be so helpful!! Thank you all!! ---

This used to be in fact de rigueur. ---

I third that request. 12.5 mcg worn is quite different from 60-100 mcg, so we really do need to know. Thanks, HotMama! ---

i think its something they are open to once they have established it as a full fledged product… not a MX###, but a product with a name. could be wrong. i think they worry about people (who have tried in the past) trying to duplicate their stuff! 😠 ---

> [@HotMama](#): > > I am talking about users posting their results, not Androtics listing their info (although it would be helpful to know, of course..) heh sorry hotmama, mybad! thats just something you eventually get in the habit of,but usually if you ask someone often enough “how much of what were you wearing” they eventually figure it out,lol. also i just assume if its a mix that is already a product, its 3 sprays unless otherwise specified. ---

I read several times that the effects wear off on the wearer when worn for an extended period of time (ie, months+) This begs the question for some of the products that are worn for mostly personal effect, does the amount worn increase over time to compensate for the loss of effect, and if so, what about the poor people trapped with you on the bus, or in the office when you come in wearing an entire bottle of… anything? ---

Jasmin has suggested that if you feel yourself getting too used to a product and not feeling the same effects, shelve it for two days and come back to it. ---

Wow! so just resting for a couple of days resets your receptors? Amazing. Thanks!! ---

I personally tend to rotate and vary the products that I wear on a daily basis. There are so many to chose from and test out. Plus, after a while, you intuitively know which product or products to wear for any given situation. I often ‘take a break’ from my usual mixes by testing some of the experimental mixtures that I have in my arsenal.
