Field Reports & Anecdotal Experience Men's Journals
1

…but this is mostly just for me, because I’m terrible at remembering everything. :smiley:

Also, for anyone that does happen to read this, I’ll start off by saying that some of you won’t find this dia..er..journal to be helpful. It doesn’t revolve around whether women find me more attractive with mx9817 on or jump straight into bed with mx9128 on. I’ll include anything on that if it’s relevant, but my focus will be on self-effects, and comments on effectiveness in regards to its desired effect on self as well as others. I’m not really sure how to articulate it more fully at the moment. This is clearly a work in progress, I’ll just update it or fix it later when I figure it out.

So anyways, the approach I’ll be taking will be that of a person completely unexposed to pheromones previously. I do have some experience using pheromones and have experienced the majority of finalized products, but it’s always nice to have a blank slate. I will, however, include a brief first impression from my earlier experiences with pheromones for eh, I dunno, I guess just to throw out as much info out there as possible. I’ll do either single mixes or single products at first, then later adding more complicated mixes.

Basic info for those that want to know because of -none levels or whatever:
Ethnicity: Korean
Age: 20
Height: 6’0"
Weight: 170
Current Physical Fitness: Lost almost all muscle definition. Marginal additional body fat.
Blood Type: O (Thanks Malleus)
(If any other info is helpful in regards to working with -none, please let me know)

Also, it’ll be funny if those aforementioned mixes ever do actually become reality. 9000’s? Dayum.

Week 1 (MX100) Safari Mix

“It’s turning out to be a light, fun, adventurous blend for him. It sparks a huge willingness to explore, to go out, have fun.”

When I originally came across this mix, I had intended it to be a mix that would be something like my rainy day mix. I’m bored and everyone’s studying or in class, and I just spray this on, go out where ever and kick it.

My first experiences with mx100 were very scattered. I was kinda looking around everywhere. Not exactly hyper aware or anything, just found myself curiously glancing at a lot of things. Not like you’re high on shrooms kinda curious though. It’s much more acute than that. Anyways, after that initial experience, I wondered if I could harness that curious energy and direct it into one object of focus. Say homework, or in my case now, regular work. For now, I’ll be seeing if I can use mx100 to focus my efforts.

(As an aside to those that don’t know, TAF is supposed to the ultimate in focusing..too bad I don’t clean for a job. I’ll try it sometime though.)

Day 1** - Feb 25 2008**

Location: Neck - 1 Spray

The first thing I notice is a small surge of energy, not unlike any caffeinated beverage. I usually kinda mope around before getting out of the car to work, but today I just grabbed my stuff and got out. That could be because of the fact that the weather was actually nice today, or perhaps because I’m a little behind schedule.

One thing that was nice, and either an effect of digging into work, or the pheromones, was that I was stuck in thoughts of the one-that-got-away-but-keeps-dating-your-friends-girl but they just vanished like a puff of smoke. In fact, any reminiscing of the past weekends’ partying disappeared. So in terms of being able to direct my focus I’d say that it’s not a bad start. It is difficult to tell at this point because it’s only Monday. I’m always gung ho at the beginning of the week.

In terms of interaction with others, I don’t really talk to others that much. My work involves walking around the city taking pictures of “landmark” buildings from a list given to me. But occasionally I do have to ask security guards or building managers for permission to enter their property to take pictures. Today I actually didn’t have to speak to many people.

One woman security guard (she wasn’t even remotely attractive for those of you wondering), was very curt and to the point, tho not unpleasant. She kept asserting her opinion somewhat redundantly, even when talking to her superior - as in “I didn’t think it would happen, but I thought I should ask anyways.” Maybe it’s just her style.

I also noticed something a little strange. People seemed to want to walk right into me on the sidewalk. I had to step off into the street or grass several times today. It’s really something I wouldn’t have noticed before because people usually just automatically adjust themselves to move out of way. Not these people. They just couldn’t be bothered to walk single file for a second or two. They just had to walk in pairs or rows of three.

(Okay I know I said blank slate, but I just have to add this. So mx100 does have some -none in it. The area I was in happened to be composed of various corporate buildings and the employees were on lunch break. Could some of them have felt the -none vibe and felt that they needed to assert their dominance by making me move out of their way? I’m just some random guy walking around with a camera in midday to them. Eh? I dunno. If you care to respond, please do.)

One other thing that stuck out was that I yelled at a coordinator waving me to go around a parked truck blocking my lane “Don’t you think I’d be going around if I could?” He responded by saying “I was just telling you that it would be clear in a moment.” I just went “Oh. Thanks!” and drove off. I don’t think there were any hard feelings either way. I’ll actually attribute that to the terrible LA traffic and the idiots that block 2 lanes trying to make it to the left turn. Worse, the idiots that forget that the intersection needs to be clear for it to work.

(I know the -none’s there and by the end of the day, whatever buffers, if any, are likely gone, but I think it would have been more vicious if it was -none induced and I probably wouldn’t have been able to respond in a light manner when I found out he was trying to help me. Probably wouldn’t have figured that out in the first place.)

Damn. That’s a lot for one day I think. See you all tomorrow.

Hi Phya, looks like you’ve been holding out on us. Glad you’re letting us share your experience. They say still water runs deep. I’m looking forward to reading more of your thoughts.

Blood type can be important, as well… At least blood type O is more susceptible to a -none OD.

Day 2 - Feb 26 2008

Location: Neck - 1 Spray

People didn’t really bother me that much today. Security guards were relatively nice and or helpful today. It was a mild day overall. If I had to choose one strange event today, it would have been in a Korean restaurant. The two people I was talking with were unusually excited about what I was doing. One woman even glanced over my shoulder to see what I writing in my notebook. However, it wouldn’t have been the first time, although usually it’s cloaked in an aura of suspicion. This felt much more light hearted. Anyway, they were both asking me questions rapid fire and I couldn’t answer them both at the same time. They noticed and laughed about it.

Oh, I did find myself looking around curiously again. I don’t think I can really focus my attention strictly on my subject, but perhaps the mix allows me to maintain any attention on my work at all! :stuck_out_tongue:

That’s it. I think I’ll try two sprays tomorrow.

Day 3 - Feb 27 2008

Location: Neck - 2 Sprays

I tried something different today. I went to some mall off pico and walked around outside. I went into a furniture store just because I liked their name. I dunno, I really kind of just wandered around like when I was in middle school and had waaaay too much time on my hands.

I think I found the friendly nature of mx100. I guess either being able to relax instead of work made it easier or the two sprays made it more intense. I was worried about the amounts of -none with two sprays because of the fact that a version with lower amounts of -none was available. But I don’t think it’s really an issue. In fact, if anything people are friendlier with two sprays.

Maybe I’m biased, but security guards are usually kinda serious, or just very polite because of the nature of their job, but the security guard at Barnes & Noble was very friendly. Don’t remember it all, but I asked him how his day was. He replied enthusiastically that he was having a good day, so I think I told him to just keep spreading the good vibes and he told me that that’s the key. What made it funny was that during the conversation he shook my hand twice. Also it was kinda drawn out, like it started when I first walked in, and I was starting to walk by not really expecting an answer, then turn around to continue the conversation, tried to walk away once, then twice, then finally left. Hmm..Instant Openness anyone?

Before that at the furniture store, the saleswoman introduced herself and let me know if I needed any help. Doesn’t it usually just start and end at if you need any help? Who knows, maybe their cool name goes with the different attitude right?

I’ll try two sprays tomorrow too, maybe during work the random store owners I have to talk to will be friendlier now that I can feel it.

Day 4 - Feb 28 2008

Location: Neck - Two sprays

So today was much more interesting, my camera crapped out on me, so I called my friend up to see if she wanted to eat lunch together. It was on. I figured now that I knew the mix was friendly enough, I’d try it around my friends. So I spray myself on my way over, and eat and all that. During the time she was pretty talkative, I pretty much just sat there and listened to her. Whatever, she’s usually talkative. Anyways, she calls a friend over and introduces me. At this point we’ll just call my friend Sarah, and her friend Judy for the sake of anonymity. After kickin it for a bit, Sarah decides she wants to get her tattoo done today. But after discussing it, she decided to just head out to Venice beach and see how a temporary would look instead.

So off we went, Judy and I are talkin about music and Sarah’s just looking around. We never make it to Venice beach. Too much traffic. Sarah’s gotta go to work, so we cut it short and go get some yogurt. The strange event of the day was a free yogurt with plenty toppings. I ordered original, but it wouldn’t work, so they gave me one with green tea instead. I figured they just wouldn’t charge me the extra for the green tea. They gave me the whole damn thing instead. Nice eh? I’m really getting the feeling this is a pretty friendly mix. Most of time Sarah was quiet, but then would loudly exclaim some random factoid about herself or just uncontrollably giggle. She even remarked that she was unusually giddy. Spontaneous dances and whatnot. To cap it all off, although this is a common description of a random outing, the two girls kept referring to our trip as an ‘adventure’.

I guess you just can’t fight the nature of a mix. Goes to show how strong and deep or light and subtle the effects can be in the depending on the situation. Or course dosage does come into play. I think I’m going to have to stop wearing this during work. I’ll probably be more productive…

Also, for those of you that might be curious, the girls were both Korean, fairly Americanized and around 21-23. In addition, Sarah was putting her hands on my shoulders quite a bit tho she might just be getting more comfortable around me, as it isn’t the first or second time she’s put hands on me.

I don’t know if I’ll be giving this mix a full week of testing. I’ll try one day of 3 sprays just to see what it’s like, then depending on that I might just start with a new product. I received my package yesterday and I’m looking forward to it. Thanks for the mx203 guys, I can’t wait to try it out. Also, Instant Honesty should be really interesting to say the least. IS just for happy times and IMF is for…well, what do you think it’s for?

Day 5 - Feb 29 2008

Location: Neck - 3 sprays

Today really wasn’t interesting at all, I believe I hit my od level with mx100. I wouldn’t say I was ghosting exactly, because people definitely noticed me, but wanted to stay away. A security guard was suspicious of my photo taking and came all the way out on to the sidewalk into my path of travel, but he never said or did anything when I walked past him. Usually if they want my attention they’ll shout or wave at the very least. To put it simply, people seemed intimidated.

Anyways, the day wasn’t very interesting other than that.

…

Location: Neck - 2 sprays then 1 spray after 1 1/2 hours.

What is interesting was my night. I busted out the Instant Shine and man did I miss it. I’ve said it before, I’ll say it again. Instant Shine alone works wonders. If I could describe how I felt in one word, it would be magnetic. Some people were getting waaay too close. Not just girls, some dudes were uncomfortably close last night. I was sitting on the bed at a lame after party, but at least the only two girls their came and sat on either side of me. At first there was a lot of room between the three of us, but as time went on, they both scooted closer until I had to lean behind them a bit just to straighten out my shoulders. The girl I was mostly talking to would lean on my knee at times. She also kept asking if I wanted to dance with her.

Ehh, what else..one girl introduced herself to me immediately after joining the group and seemed pretty captivated, but she was pretty drunk too, so whatever. Although that captivation wasn’t unique to her. My friend met some girl at while we were at an another party and just came by us to talk for a second and in that second the girl he met started talking to me.

As long as I maintained conversation with someone, I was their full center of attention, but if I broke up flow by talking to someone else they would immediately start talking to someone else. Really magnetic in that sense, as well.

All this while barely lifting a finger. It felt so effortless. Other than maintaining conversation here and then, everything else was practically placed into my lap. It was a great time, but I’m feeling the itch to see even stronger effects again.

The girls were fairly expressive with just the shine, I wonder what kind of expression will come out with some IH in the mix. I think it’d be pretty fun. I guess I’ll just have to try it out some time.

Good reports. Rep points to you.

Day 6 - Mar 1 2008

Location: IS (Throat - 1.5 sprays), IMF (Neck - 1.5 spray)

I decided throat is a better description of an application than neck. If I do say neck, I usually mean the back of my neck, not the sides. I’ll point it out if I happen to use the sides of my neck.

So I was going to go to a friend’s house (let’s call her..Ashley) and hang out for a bit. I knew that she’s been having a hard time lately so I wanted to use some IMF so that she could relax. Then I threw in some IS to potentially counter act any negative self-effects and to hopefully cheer Ashley up in the process.

She’s a close friend of mine and we’ve known each other a long time. While we’ve been intimate before, I didn’t really expect the night to head in the direction it did.

Needless to say, things went well. There were several things to point out from last night.

I think it’s very possible to apply pheromones to objects such as gifts for effects. I don’t know how long they would remain effective, but if you smell a paper towel with some pheromones on it after spraying it, I guess it works. I know many others have reports of doing something similar, so I wanted to try it with Ashley. I told her it was aromatherapy. Then she told me it just smelled like rubbing alcohol. Haha. Damn. Aromatherapy huh? But she did say it calmed her down and relaxed her..and then some.

Anyways, after that whole aromatherapy thing, we started talking about cologne/perfume. She asked me what I was wearing that night. I didn’t want to lie to her so I just told her that I wasn’t ‘comfortable’ talking about it yet. :smiley: I just didn’t want her knowing about my pheromone use until a bit later on. But I think I might cut down on the use around her, at least anything that might cause some irreparable damage to our friendship. Until I tell her about it, then depending on how she feels about it, maybe I’ll be wearing more around her.

In any case, she was talking about how a good scent is a what it is because it carries your natural pheromones the best, and how that helps create a stronger chemical reaction. This genius doesn’t know how close she is. :wink: I don’t really remember how she described how that chemical reaction should feel like, but I think we all know what she means. Ignition keys. :smiley: Then she went on to say that ‘whatever you’re wearing tonight, let me tell ya, it does it. You smelled so good when you first showed up.’

She also mentioned that she felt really ‘safe’ with me. We went out to some party late at night in Hollywood and I guess she was a little scared of some of the people on the street so she grabbed my hand as soon as we got out of the car.

Something I just realized, when she was doing her make up, I was standing around her and talking. Maybe she was exposed well to the pheromones over time, hence the strong reaction? The strong reaction could always simply due to the fact that we’re very close already.

And..I guess that’s a wrap.

I think I’m going to give Instant Honesty a try next week. I should probably brace myself. More than a few strange things have popped out in the presence of IH…

I also hypothesize that IH, IS, and IMF are all I really need. We’ll see if it remains true. Not to say that other combos aren’t more effective, I’m just saying IS works so well alone, with IMF it’s even more amazing, and I think with IH in the mix, you’ll be like a black hole drawing everybody into your presence. Anything more effective is like bringing a tank to a water gun fight! Heh, but I guess that’s kind of the point, right?

Although, I’ll be honest, as effective as it is, I don’t think IMF is very good for my libido. I may not get visually depressed, but it may be having an effect on me nonetheless. I may either have to just work out harder and bring up my testosterone levels up or introduce some -none in the mix. I don’t know, maybe someone has suggestions? Or I could just have been too tired. Lack of sleep doesn’t help at all I think.

I’m probably just being really excited about the Instant line since it’s been a while since my last time of regular use. I’ll probably find the itch explore the unknown more later. It’s a sunday night so I don’t think I’ll be going out. And I slept through most of the day because I’ve been up really late the last couple of nights. Which means I won’t be having a day 7 report because I didn’t test anything today. Till next week.

10

Good details. What is your impression of Instant Honesty by the way? Do you use it alone?

11

Kevio, we’re about to see. I started my tests with IH alone today.

Week 2 (Instant Honesty)

Okay, so quick recap of week 1. MX100 by itself was just a fun time, but not much more. My one night of IS alone was an even more fun time. But the night with IS + IMF was the best. A little afraid of IMF and what that might do to my little guy, but we’ll see.

One week of exercise and I already feel much better. It’s a relatively simple and light workout too, so this goes to show how effective just getting off your ass and doing something is. If you’re wondering at the moment I’m working out (if you can call it that) every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. I’m do two sets of 25 push ups and crunches each (yea, didn’t I say light?) Then go run 2 miles.

I’m starting to see the beginnings of redefinition. Too soon and too light of a work out to really be building any muscle yet. I’m just waking up my body and reminding it of how I want it to operate right now. :smiley:

Okay, now to the reports!

Day 1 - March 3 2008

Location: Neck - 1 spray, Hair - 0.5 spray

I couldn’t really decide how I wanted to try and spread the pheromones to others without effecting myself too much so I tried the back of my neck and my hair, hoping most of it would drift away from me. I don’t think it stopped me from smelling it, but it definitely worked in terms of spreading the pheromones.

If I wore something to work on a daily basis, at this point I’d choose Instant Honesty. I seemed well received by most shop owners that I talked to. Some grandmothers chimed in about how I wasn’t speaking Korean a little after I started talking and took great interest in my conversation with the shopkeeper. I responded back and they seemed pretty content with my answer.

Also, don’t underestimate the power of a simple compliment to girls. I think the instant honesty helped let loose a comment about my friend’s hair and how it looked nice that day. She was surprised and said she hadn’t done anything special today. I just shrugged and replied that it looks nice anyways. I noticed she played with her hair A LOT today. She even remarked a few hours later that she liked her hair that day and that she was having fun playing with it.

Other than that as soon as we met, we launched into discussions about roommates and how to deal with them, etc, etc. Not really deep stuff per se but stuff that we both had deep interests in.

I wish I had brought the bottle along, I would have considered refreshing to see stronger effects later in the night. She seemed pretty happy the whole day. I can’t imagine how off the walls she might be around some IS. We’ll probably find out next week.

I wonder if I can handle 3 sprays. We’ll see.

12

Looks like an IOI :smiley:

Btw, is your Instant Honesty the regular strength? I ordered the x4 and still wondered of the appropriate dose.

13

It’s regular strength. I haven’t tried the 4x strength before, but even the regular spray is pretty strong for me atm. At least in terms of self-effects. I found myself talking about things that I didn’t plan on bringing up.

Yea, I might say it’s an IOI as well, but the point I was trying to make was that the simple compliment about her hair earlier in the day was still working a few hours later as she was still feeling good about her hair, thus she was playing with it a lot.

I know it’s common to say that hair playing is an IOI. And it might be, I can feel some sexual tension between us, but it can also be stemming from other factors. In this case, I believe she was playing with her hair more because she was consciously thinking about her hair. As a result she might feel better about me, but the actual hair playing probably resulted from that compliment. Especially the remark about how she liked her hair that day. She hadn’t done anything special to like her hair that day apparently, so what made her feel so good about it? I reckon the compliment, but maybe I’m being arrogant. :smiley:

14

Day 2 - Mar 4 2008

Location: Neck - 3 sprays
Didn’t wear anything during the day. Went out with my friend who was getting a tattoo. It was a fun time. There were many examples of the honesty at work. I’m not going to go into the details tonight, but I’ll say this. I think 3 sprays is where it starts to get a little more interesting. But its hard to say, as I think some of the reactions I think are out of the scope of any pheromone, but aside from those there were others that were still present that could possibly be attributed to the pheromones. A lot happened and it’s kind of a lot to try and recall it all right now. I’ll just say there was a lot of close behavior. I’m going to try 4 sprays tomorrow, this is getting interesting.

15

My order should arrive soon. Looking forward to have fun with it :smiley:

I’m worried about to-go bottles though. There are many posts mentioning they can easily leak during shipping.

16

Yea, I’ve experienced leakage not during shipping, but during use, and going out. Either way when you do test it, let us know on your journal.

17

Day 6 - March 8 2008

Okay, so I’ve been slipping on writing here everyday. But either way it would have been boring to write about. Well, not really, a lot has happened, but I’m really unable to translate the results I feel from the use of Instant Honesty.

I guess I can say that it has been helpful during work. Security guards and other authority figures seem to accept me more easily and are much more helpful. Friendship wise, it just seems to deepen the bond. I definitely see effects on people, but they happen so smoothly that you wonder if they would have told you about it or done something with or without pheromones.

If you could signal to everyone ‘non-threat’, that would be Instant Honesty.

3 sprays seems to work well, regardless of where I put it. Also, I don’t really find a problem with applying it on my throat, I don’t feel like the self-effects are drastic. I do find I want to talk about anything that might be possibly relevant, but if it’s something I don’t wish to be revealed, then I am able to consciously prevent it. I haven’t really heard about anyone being unable to stop talking about issues they want hidden, but I just figured if it can have strong effects on people 3 ft away from me, then how strong will it be to my own nose?

Although I do think there is better general exposure when applied to the back of the neck or in the hair.

I want to try higher sprays, I see people using the 4x strength Instant Honesty..I wonder what I’ll see, hear, and feel when that much IH is in play.

18

It’s been far too long. I don’t even think I’m really going to bother with all the formatting and crap…so I’ll just get going.

Okay, I guess not. My boss just asked me to do some stuff before I leave.

But I will say this…

It goes without saying that my life will get more complicated, but for the moment, here’s what you need to know.

Keep your daily routine going. It’s nearing a month, and you’re already seeing lots of improvement. Use the routine to keep a proper perspective of time. Remind yourself that large changes can be had in a relatively short period of time with a consistent dedication of time.

Make sure you’re spotless. Meaning, make sure your clothes are all clean, folded well, etc. Make sure your apartment is clean and doesn’t get, or stay, cluttered. Make sure your car gets cleaned every two weeks.

BECAUSE…it reminds you of all the nice things you’ve got and shows that you appreciate what you already have.

As far as pheromones go..you really should just use them often because they really do lead to better days. And seriously, not even the getting laid more often part, it just makes my day more interesting.

And t**hose things have made all the difference..

19

Just checked out your journal. Yeah, I feel the same that it makes my day more interesting. :slight_smile:

Lately, I’m trying IH, IS and IMF mix as well and find them work the job. Not in sexual way but as a secure feeling maker. Usually IH with IMF work fine or me. Mix the three of them don’t make much difference.

Btw, where do you live?

20

I live in Los Angeles, CA.

Yea, those 3 are going to be very comfortable for most people, though the IMF might throw off guys that are sensitive to it.

So last night I went out to a party wearing 2 sprays of p79 (5/spray) and 2 sprays of IS. I applied a bit ways into the party to gauge the difference. The difference was clear. Although, I have to wonder, how much of it was from smelling like the ‘cologne’ guy? Both bottles are relatively low strength.

Anyways, I got very obvious, curious looks from girls I didn’t know. Most of the girls I did know were just even more friendly. Friends were constantly coming into the conversation, actually it really kept things moving. I don’t think I really ever stood around. I wasn’t wearing Instant Openness, so it wasn’t that kind of talkativeness, but it just seemed that a lot of people would break into the conversation I was having, or would casually start one. Pretty typical of IS.

What made it kinda strange was how quickly everything happened. This is where I think p79 comes into play. I know that when I get exposed to p79, I get kind of antsy, (for those of you that do xtc, you know the giddiness you get after you take the pill, but before you actually roll?). I wonder if this feeling was shared among the people around me. I think that giddiness just pushed people to get whatever it was they wanted to get out, out there.

One girl in particular was interesting. Recently I’ve become more aware of the push and pull in terms of body language. She walks away, I kinda follow. I walk away, she kinda follows. Anyways, this was happening a lot with her. When I came in after applying pheros, I was talking to her and it was really upbeat, lots of energy and laughing. I left to go smoke and before I left she told me we need to take a shot together when I get back.

We’ve known each other, but we never really talked or interacted until tonight. (Although, in the back of my mind, I think it’s been coming, I’ve noticed a change in her behavior before she was exposed to pheros.) So it was a little out of the ordinary as we’ve been at parties before, but she’s never asked to take a shot with me? I dunno whatever. That’s not the interesting part.

What was interesting was that we would talk for 10 min or so, as I said above, someone would push into the conversation, then she’d lose interest and completely remove herself and go somewhere else. If she walked over to some friends I might finish the current conversation then head over to talk with them. If she walked over to some other people I’d just leave and go somewhere else. A few minutes later, she would enter the room I was in, casually glance around and maybe start talking to someone else nearby.

It seemed like there was this continuous ‘I see you seeing me seeing you’, but it was completely unspoken. Maybe it was unconscious for her, I felt like I was aware of it, but hell, maybe I was more unaware than she.

Anyways, I feel like this behavior is consistent with my results from before where I had on lots of IS alone. Maybe I need to practice focusing my attention directly on whom I am speaking with? I have a tendency to scan my surroundings habitually. Or maybe I shouldn’t be allowing other people to so easily push into my conversations? And I know it sounds stupid, of course you need to pay attention to people..duh. Not like that. If you’re in a group of people and you’re not directly involved in conversation, unless it was a dramatic shift in conversation, usually you might stick around a bit. Here it was a case of in or not in. I felt like I was a transfer station, one conversationalist came in, said their piece, then some other conversationalist would come in, take their place…etc..etc..

Perhaps some of you could comment..
