just wondering, but how is everyone finding these boards? im sure its certainly not because of advertising. and whats more, howd you find out about mones??
personally, ive known about pheromones for years (bio major) and was just researching them one night and came across androtics.
TAG! YOUR IT!!
I started looking into making my own cologne. I then started thinking about pheromones. I found some rather odd site that was linked to androtics. I was looking for micronone.
Androtics had some advertising on Basenotes Community - Powered by vBulletin and that’s how I found this place!
Winifred Cutler had a ad for her product in cosmo. I saw that and put pheromones in my search and ended up finding this forum. I went over it for about a month before I decided I would like to try them out.

well i found out about pheromones from another forum - and I found pherotalk by googling androstenol.
I re-constructed the forum name from deleted posts in another forum, that had an issue mentioning Androtics name. Something similar to that you may see in CSI.
I was on the other forum for a while - got there from a google; and this place was mentioned on there a while back so came to check it out.
Can’t for the life of me remember how I first heard of pheromones. I just know it was about 4 years back. Sounded interesting, have had missed results overall but onwards and upwards I say!

I got here after a search of methoxyestratetraenone.
I got here after looking for an idea for the perfect Christmas present. Had a passing interest in pheros for years and I found pheromonetalk after searching in Google for “pheromone”. It was about 3 pages down below the usual get-laid-fast-with-no-effort ads you’d see in the back pages of FHM, Loaded, or any other of the men’s lifestyle mags.
The rest is history.
I was a member on LS for a couple of years…where I was first introduced to Alpha A314. I googled A314 one day and happened to find this forum, where a number of a familiar faces had already been playing on. Tried a few of their products, liked them a lot…slowly phased into replacing most of my LS products with theres. and I’m a happy camper
I was a member of Love-Scent, too, and wondered what happened to all the interesting posters, but never caught on to the existence of this forum until I saw the ad on basenotes.com.
A few years ago I was exploring smart drugs, tried pregnenolone and experienced a change in the smell of my sweat alongside a spike up in my success with women. I experimented with the older generation mones for a while and came over here from Love Scent to find out more about A314 and other new products.
I helped make it. 
I was on Love Scent long ago and made the switch after I got the then virtually unobtainable TAx line, before there was a store or forum. Experiencing the spectacular customer service went a long way to clinching the deal.
I heard about good results with Alter Ego in a yahoo group about psychological techniques. So I ordered it from a german onlineshop, which works together with Love-Scent and read a little while in the Love-Scent discussion board. Read interesting things about A314, wanted to have it.
The german company didnt distribute it, so I looked it up in google and found this page.
Because of my background I think many of the stunning effects reported to pheromones are based on psychological effects. If a person knows what a product should do and believes in it at some level and expect it to work, the brain might do everything to make it happen.
I got many interesting things happen to me just by smiling and being relaxed. If you are relaxed and smile and have a open body language it’s more than likely that you will be talked to by total strangers.
When a buddy of you tells you that a girl is into you. You may become more confident when you approach her and women can sense that. So you become more successfull than when you are thinking about this woman is too good for you etc…
So if pheromomes make you believe that you are attractive, women will sense it and feel that you are confident about it. Confidence with women most of the times means that you know and feel that the woman is attracted to you. If you communicate in any ways doubt in that - with your voice, micro movements, gestures, posture, breathing patterns, facial expressions - a woman will feel it and will start doubting you herself.
Or if a friend tells you that everyone at the party had told him that they like you, all the girls are into you and you should keep this as a secret and tell nobody he has told it to you, you’ll have more fun, be more open, etc. Ok the opposite thing happens when someone tells you that behind your back everybody told him that they hate you.
Did that ever happen to you? You most certainly have felt the effects. In the beginning you thought all the people are ok, but all the sudden your mind changed and you feel very, very bad.
So I am interested in 2 things:
1) Does this stuff work for me? (A question you should ask yourself with all mind technologies, like affirmations, visualization, whatever)
2) Will I find effects which are really pheromone based - therefore I should use pheromes of which I dont know what they do and look if I get the same results like other people not knowing what they do.
So these things are why I am here.
You might say it doesnt matter if the effects are psychological, the only thing that matters is that it works, but I dont like the dependancy on products. So I will still work with other methods to raise my confidence with women.
I wnet to MSN search and typed pheromones and read quite a bit and somehow ended up here. This is the only one I stayed to check out. When looking online at products I watch the calims and testimonials. Alot of them are crap.
I was on Amazon.com one day and was searching for rose essential oil. While searching I saw an oil product that included pheromones. I then decided to do a search for similar products. On one of the products pages I found a link that brought me to this site. I’ve been here frequently ever since and have learned a good deal more.
I got here by a chain of connections:
I’m a member at numerous bodybuilding forums. One of the forums I’ve visited had a pheromone section(which somehow I decided to click out of the blue); normally i wouldn’t even click on it but I guess I clicked on it and saw the ad for Love Scent and went on their forum. I later found this forum today via google search of other pheromone forums and what do you know I’m here now ready to gain more knowledge.
The Force was strong here…
that, and i could smell the Ammo from here.
brings a tear to my eye when i recall that day…
All of that plays a factor (a very big factor in fact), but theres a lot more going on to pheromone effects than mere psychological fullfillment of expectations.
I’ve been able to discern pheromone characteristics unique to individual pheromones for myself, and the change in the effects based on the different pheromones used is certainly felt. It isn’t always a positive change either. I’ve also been able to note the individual effects the pheromones have on myself while wearing them. Again, usually they’re good, sometimes they aren’t. (ie male depression from dienone). Nonetheless, the effects are certainly there.
We’ve also blindly tested a number of different experimental pheromone molecules (TA series and putative series), and have been able to discern the effects were for ourselves. Some I liked, other I didn’t…some did nothing. These molecules are released to the store without any prior information of what they’re supposed to do, to eliminate the bias of pre-determined expectations. Its very cool when a number of us test these mystery molecules, and end up reporting the same results.
Also I have, on many occasions, worn a pheromone mixture with the expectation that it would go well, only to have it go very badly. Pheromone effects can just as easily ‘go bad’ as it they could ‘go well’. ie overdosing, or possibly a misbalanced mixed. These bad reactions certainly trump any pre-conceived expectations I might have had when I initially put the mix on.
There are a number of valid arguments as to why they really aren’t working, but its something you really have to ‘feel for’. its something you really have to try for yourself before passing judgement
