Okay, today I experimented with NPA for the first time and my results were not so good. I tried to pour 1 drop on my wrist, but the bottle leaked what I guess was approximately 5 drops all at once. So, I immediately washed off a small amount of NPA. I then smeared some of the remaining NPA all around my wrists. I then applied 3 sprays of MX292 to my wrists… I won’t go into details, but I had really TERRIBLE results with the above mixes while at a fast food restaurant and then at work. So… I was just wondering if anybody can school me on effective ways of applying correct dosages of NPA to my skin??? Also, where is a good/effective location to apply NPA on my skin?? Wrists? Neck? Shoulders?? If you have had any success with NPA, I would appreciate any tips. Thank u everyone! JMC ---

I hope you didn’t apply the NPA by using the dropper it comes with or removing the dropper and just _pouring_ it on your skin! You have to buy a bulb syringe dropper, remove the stopper NPA comes with, and then use the bulb syringe to get some of the liquid/NPA then add a drop to your finger tip and quickly rub it on the front of your neck, wrists, or behind your ears. Two drops should be enough. > [@jmcinaz2](#): > > Okay, today I experimented with NPA for the first time and my results were not so good.

Correction, I should say bulb dropper so you won’t get confused with the ones that look like actual syringes. Anyway, one of these… If it’s one of the ones that are measured in 1ml you can also get an empty 5ml to-go bottle, then fill it with 1ml of NPA, then the rest with _your_ cologne of choice so you can have your cologne of choice spiked with NPA. Shake it up, and then try to let it settle for maybe a week just to make sure they blend/mix together completely. Although I’m not sure if this is necessary. ---

If you do this how many sprays = 1 drop of NPA? ---

This will absolutely be more than one drop per spray, so the exact amount of NPA per spray I do not know. However, as with anything start with one spray then move up until you see good results. Maybe someone else can chime in on the exact amount per spray? The cologne will dilute NPA so it won’t be as harsh, but just to be safe start with one spray. > [@BubbleCatcher](#): > > If you do this how many sprays = 1 drop of NPA? ---

Still … there are those that fit in the exception. Anywho, if you’re gonna be using NPA raw … ““I”” advise you to go with the smearing technique. Just flip the bottle upside down on a finger tip and smear. TWO smears should do you nicely! Yes, it’s that powerful … it’s why you mix it with a good cologne (I like it with a spicey/musk scent) at 3:1, 4:1, or 5:1 DEPENDING on how strong of RAW SEX APPEAL you wanna put out there! 🙄 UNLESS you’re really taller (6’ 4"+) than your average target … the talk is, and I’ve become a believer in it as well … you want the -nones around your chest, privates and neck area, and your socials on your wrists.

Also as a word of warning NPA as it’s name suggests (New [Pheromone](https://a314.com/) _Additive_) was designed so that it could be added to to the cologne of your choice, it is almost impossible to properly dose it by applying NPA directly to your skin. And since the stuff is so concentrated it is VERY easy to OD using the direct approach. Try mixing some NPA with cologne in a small atomizer at a ratio of about 5-1 or 7-1 (cologne to NPA) and see how that works for you. ---

Anyone know if “The Edge” and NPA are the same product? The Edge, NPA, and IMPI are all made by the same manufacturer (LaCroix). I’ve always wondered if they were the same thing but with different emphasis. The Edge is dosed spray (with or without scent). NPA is designed to add to your own cologne. IMPI is some weird South African collection of aphrodesiac herbs mixed in with their [pheromone blend](https://pheromonelabs.com/product-category/advanced/experimental/). Any truth to that? I own both “The Edge” and NPA. Both give me good results. But the NPA is a pain in the ass to apply. If they are the same thing, then I see little point to getting NPA. Just get “The Edge” in its scentless version. Cover with whatever amount of cologne you feel like. ---

> [@Bonecrkr](#): > > Anyone know if “The Edge” and NPA are the same product? The Edge is 1/5 strength NPA. Also, anyone using NPA at the age of 26 shouldn’t be using much more than 2 _dabs_, 2 _drops_ would be way too much.😮 ---

Lordy, you suffered a major OD on androstenone! Cool. Everybody needs this lesson at least once to appreciate clear instructions on mones use! So you got your spanking. Now here’s what to do with NPA: NPA is designed to be mixed 5 parts cologne to 1 part NPA and sprayed n from an atomizer. I use a Sephora atomizer. I marked 6 even parts on the inner bottle, fill 5 with cologne (use perfume funnel) and 1 with NPA. If you want smaller batches, you can use drops instead (10 drops cologne, 2 drop NPA, etc.). NPA is not designed to be applied directly to the skin. Dabbing is dangerous, especially for young men due to poor distribution and easy ODing. If you wanna apply directly to skin, TE is exactly the same thing but diluted 5 times. ---

> [@Gegogi](#): > > NPA is designed to be mixed 5 parts cologne to 1 part NPA and sprayed n from an atomizer. So, once I mix 5 parts cologne and 1 part NPA in an atomizer, will I need to spray that ENTIRE dosage on myself??? If the NPA and cologne are not evenly mixed, I fear that I might spray myself with say 96% cologne and only 4% NPA or vise versa (or a worse percentage) Thanks for your advice ---

No, I’m sure that it’ll distribute itself properly. I mean if we’re talking about using a 5ml to-go sprayer here. For a full size sprayer like say a 30ml atomizer I’m sure you just have to figure out how much NPA you have to add according to the bigger size of the bottle. 5ml of NPA to 25ml of cologne? Not sure, might be too diluted but then again I my self don’t know, as this is just a guess. > [@jmcinaz2](#): > > So, once I mix 5 parts cologne and 1 part NPA in an atomizer, will I need to spray that ENTIRE dosage on myself???

Both cologne and NPA are suspended in alcohol carriers and will blend perfectly. As for dose, you need to figure that out for yourself. It ain’t rocket science. BEing you’re so young, I’d start with one spray and carefully observe reactions. Add another if you think you need a boost. Not too likely you will need 3 or 4 sprays unless you’re an old man or having nad problems… ---

Just get “The Edge” in its scentless version. The only reason to get NPA over TE is for custom homebrew mixing. If you ain’t into custom composing it’s too strong/risky to dab. NPA is chemset strength so you can mix with other chemset strength mones and/or cologne for a custom mix. Pour it into a Sephora atomizer, drop in your pocket and you’re ready for anything while on the road, in parking lots or bars. I have NPA premixed in Sephora atomizers with Burberry Weekend, Issey Miyake Summer and Chrome. I also use it in an AE clone with Bulgari Aqua. I keep all 4 atomizers in my messenger bag and. If I have an impromptu date or happy hour meeting, I reach in my bag and select the scent I want to use and apply in the car right before I step into the event. Sure beats running home and playing with several bottles and covering… For the past 6 years NPA has remained my all time fav and most consistent performer. I know my dose inside out and it works like clockwork. Now AD sells equally excellent androstenone products. However they are too weak for custom mixing. Instead, they are designed to be used straight out of the bottle. So if you’re not into mixing, you still have TE, TUTH and Experimone Androstenone. You can be a lot more careless with weaker products as an extra dab or drop usually won’t hurl you into OD territory. ---

And NPA really does need to be mixed - The cologne scent acts as a carrier for the pheros and without it, they simply won’t diffuse as efficently. ---

SHAKE WELL Before Each Use… This is a MUST If You Mixed with Cologne… WHY?!? Just Read the Label on the Box… The Contents are Pheromone, Alcohol and OILS… Yup, It’s has BOTH Alcohol and Oil… So a Good Shake is a Great Idea to Keep it Well Mixed even if you Didn’t Mix It… ---

Many perfumes use oil and alcohol together and I think the oil and alcohol mix together instead of seperating like oil and water. The Mixture I’ve Made Doesn’t Appear to be Separating but it’s Abit Cloudy… This I’ll Chalk up to the Coloring Used in the Cologne… Mixing Oils and Alcohol Depends on the Types of Both Being Used… Ethanol for Example is Soluble in Both Oil and Water… Certain Types of Alcohol can Create a “Phase Change” Allowing Oil and Water to Mix… That Seems to be the case here… Wow, Chemistry 101 from 20 Years Ago… ---
