I’ve posted up a couple of times following good social times with the combo in the heading but had a very different experience at a wedding recently. The only difference between this and other times was that this time I combined IO and IH rather than used one on its own with IG & IShine.

All guests were either passing acquaintances at best (ie. I’ve met them once or twice and no more, and not for a couple of years) or they were totally unknown to me.

Dosage:  
IG to go, 3 sprays, one neck, one hair, one left wrist  
IShine 2x to go, 3 sprays, two neck, one right wrist  
IO 2x to go, 2 sprays, one back of left hand, one front of neck  
IH 2x to go, 2 sprays, chest, front of neck

My aim was to get that charismatic glow I know this combo can give, and to be approachable. I was congruent with it and made an effort to speak to people etc.

Everyone seemed to avoid eye contact however, except a few notable exceptions, more on them later though.

It was quite surprising and similar to my unbuffered solo IG experiences. I’d try to speak to people and while some were fine once I’d started conversation others would act nervous however much I tried to put them at their ease. Just to stress again - I approached people and started conversation. So this was not the effect I was after at all. And no-one, except the exceptions below, made any effort to approach me for conversation.

The most notable reaction:

Man 1: dressed like he wanted to give the impression of being a minor celebrity / successful sports star. He was congruent too! Big smile, slapping people on the back, “everyone’s best friend” attitude - definitely came with the self-image of being “the man”. When he was within about 4 feet of me he dropped the smile totally and blanked me. He avoided entering the bar if I was in there, didn’t say hello to me or my LTR, kept his distance at all times. Not unfriendly particularly, just not approaching. And his LTR was the opposite - smiling and friendly and fine with me.

The exceptions - ie. people who responded as I’d expected and hoped people might on prior experience of using similar combos (in addition to “the man’s” LTR):

The brides grandmother - she spoke to me as if we were old friends and as if we had a shared secret.

The lady running the hotel - she had the same “shared secret” smile and seemed to treat me differently to other guests. Subtle things, but I felt she singled me out a little.

The barman - couldn’t do enough for me. Again, subtle things but all above what I’d expect normally.

A good friend of the bride, there with her LTR. She singled me out for conversation right from the start, and throughout the evening / night this continued, with her LTR involved, but on the periphery. I kept trying to involve him but he avoided eye contact just like everyone else.

So a surprising day. Any thoughts on how this combo managed to get that kind of near blanket avoidance with a few exceptions, where it was like I was in a secret society?

I have noticed people avoiding eye contact when wearing IG unbuffered in a high dose. Maybe thats what caused it? Although you had alot of buffers on with it, so I am not sure.
