hello Jake, welcome to the forums.
hot showers are our friends! there are definite reasons why dogs roll in the dirt right after you give them a bath, they want to smell like dogs. soap is an essential part of the cleaning process but i for one believe that the average person uses way too much, way too often, and way over-scented.
in the states it has become very difficult to have a shampoo/conditioner/face soap/body soap/deodorant/cologne combo that doesn’t clash, there are just way too many competing cucumbers and orange peels. i just don’t think we need to scrub ourselves to that extent (sometimes two or three times per day) unless of course we actually get physically dirty.
i live in an incredibly scent-conscious environment. more so than any i have ever lived in before and i have yet to hear a negative comment about BO.
anyway, pheromones may or may not be the boost you need to find mrs right but it sure is a hell of a lot of fun trying, especially when you go into the hunt open minded.
shyness can be pretty easily overcome. put mrs right aside for the time being and focus on being mr right, enjoy your time out at parties or with friends and she will notice you. if you keep your closest friends in the dark about your pheromone use, they will unknowingly aid you to break out of your shell.
start with something very simple from the instant line, my choice would be instant shine, this one has loads of reports back regarding personal benefits and i’ve seen it do some pretty crazy/miraculous things in public places too.
Instant Openness and Instant Honesty should both increase chatting and conversations, and they can each be used with Instant Shine and pretty much everything else as an adjunct, meaning you can learn to tailor your phero signature to the occassion, as you learn how each works individually.
as for un-scented having the highest concentration of pheromones i am not sure about that. Androtics is famous for having “dosed” products, meaning that every time you spray one of their products you will get the same amount and many of their products can be custom tailored for scents. if someone has stated here definitively that unscented products have a higher concentration of pheromones per spray, i would like to see the link as that is new info to me.
anyway, have fun and good luck.
