I’m trying to figure out whether some of the things that have been happening to me are [pheromone](https://a314.com/shop/) hits or not. For example, today on the bus I’m walking to my seat wearing Gentleman x 4, Shine x 2 on neck and wrists respectively. Chinese girl sitting down looks up right into my eyes sorta smiling a bit and after I sit down in the seat behind her repeatedly looks around at me. But I might have been ~3 metres away (roughly 10 feet) when first getting eye contact. I have a handsome face, I am told, and pretty intense eye contact when I can maintain it. So I’m wondering how much was me and how much the pheros, and how much my imagination.

There is only one way you can find out for sure, Tezza. You need an experimental control. What I do is go out suited up because I get some good responses from women wearing the suit alone. No pheros. This is my control and I use it to establish a baseline for responses.

I then repeat the experiment, going to the same places, wearing the same suit, at the same time the next day and attempting to create a perfect copy of the day before as much as possible - I’m not God.

Any hits above and beyond the baseline are what I write about in my reports. As I get better at it, I don’t need the control any more. I know what to expect and what to look for.

Yeah… thing is I got similar hits even before I discovered pheros. Self-effects I can spot, but effects on others I’m having a real hard time pinning down.
