That smell is anol and to me it smells like dirty feet LOL I wear a cover scent with it but on the occasions that I haven’t no one notices the smell.
I suggest you use a cover until your more confident with the scent of them. You dont want to feel self conscious while your wearing them it will show in your body language.
Huh - IO always just smells like neroli to me. I had to get used to the neroli scent at first - it was very different from any cologne I usually wear.
The other half of the equation is that once the products dry down - they have almost o scent that others can detect and even the trace scent fades to almost nothing after an hour.
I worked in an environment where cologne was a big no no and the neroli scent worked just fine.
Yeah, this is a factor that I think was something I had to get used to in the first few weeks of phero wearing. Possibly something that stops people initially getting the hits until they acclimatise to it.
Now, due to a lack of negative reinforcement - I mean, people haven’t commented or shown any nonverbal signs that I stink bad - I have dispelled any such concerns and have been getting the hits.
Ishine smells very weird to me. TUTH smells weird (the neroli does and there is “something else” there). IO just smells like neroli to me too. I can’t smell hardly anything unusual in A1, beta-androstenol, P79, P74… which has made me wonder! I think I have got a terrible sense of smell myself, I certainly don’t have a very sophisticated olfactory vocabulary… (“bad”/“good”/“weird” is about my limit!)
It wont’t cancel it out by any means. If it is an alcohol based spray it shoud technically slow diffusion. But I imagine the slowing would be negligible with another spray, possibly not even measurable. An EO or lotion over the top will slow diffusion more. Slower diffusion means less immediate intensity, but a longer lasting application.
I do not doubt it smells bad to some - it has just never bothered me - but being somewhat of a gym or dojo rat - well, your foot or body odor has to be really bad to bother me at this point … lol.
This is so weird! I thought that instant openness smelled ok (but not stinky at all…) interesting… it’s confirmed, my nose receptors are dead.
Edit: But I do remember my mom asking me why I smelled like I’ve rolled around with a sweaty man. So maybe there’s a few of us who don’t smell the stank in is/o?
If so, there are quite a few single guys where I do martial arts who get pretty sweaty during the work-out. They would probably love to have a girlfriend who - in addition to being smart, witty and attractive - would not tell them they stink and need a shower as soon as they get home from their workout.
That would be pretty much any man’s dream girl:
Guy: all sweaty and stinky from exercise, work, whatever …
Her: “Hi honey, glad you are home. No - you’re fine, I don’t smell a thing. Here’s some water. Now come give me a big sweaty hug …”
I wonder if Mrs. BH could mail you some of her nose receptors … if she did not have as many maybe I would not stink as much after a workout … lol.
Of course when your mom asked you why you smelled like you had rolled around with a sweaty man you could have just given her a sly smile and winked …
Are they cute? LMAO! (I’ll pass the sweatiness here cause everyone perspires during a “workout”)
Aww really!!!.. sigh well they’re not going to love me! cause I’ll shove them to the shower rooms lol!
LMAO!!! omg, I laughed so much, I’m coughing my lungs out lmao!
Seriously, I’d like some by mail. Send me a pm if you need my address lol! My mom thinks that my dad stinks real bad even after showering after his workout (and he smells okay to me!!) Seriously, I have no clue what’s going on! Maybe the ladies are just used to your “clean” signature scent, what else can I say? lol!
hahaha, if I did I would have seen her eyes pop out and her jaw on the floor. Had “fun”, but no shower? Oh dear god lol! faints
That’s crazy.. I LOVE the smell of Instant Openness. I sprayed some on with a little bit of Instant Sexiness for work today.. and a million people must’ve commented on how good I smelled. I didn’t even use a cover up!
Hahaha I know I was starting to wonder if there was something wrong with me! Mmmm I love it so much!! It’s what I’m smelling right now I can’t get enough!!
That’s so funny!!! I worked out yesterday that it smelt of old stinky off milk lol. Really yucky smell!
Many moons ago I was seeing this guy who to me smelled of tinned sweetcorn . I thought it was really odd. It was definitly his smell and not a cologne. Not sexy at all!
Yeah, come to think of it, IG smelt a bit like sweat to me actually, although not overly bad - so maybe I can smell androsterone, but OTOH Akuto A314 just smells like some quite nice EO to me, I mean lots of folk, men and women, do not like the smell of A314, and it is interesting how their descriptions of the “bad smell” vary so much.
Emma, the balance of the alpha to beta androstenols is different in IH; it is betanol-heavy. So the alphanol is probably what you describe as the sour milk smell. But there is still some of it in IH… maybe it is below your threshold for recognising it as a sour milk smell or something.
But of course what you can smell on yourself is not nearly as intense for other people, and your perceptions may be influenced by the fact that you know that you have put on something unusual. Others don’t know or suspect that. So when those hits start coming in, you’ll feel no qualms about stepping up to any social situation, even with a rather unconventional scent emanating from you!
As well as a cover scent, you might like to have a cover story, in case anyone asks about the scent, so as you can feel secure (But they almost certainly won’t ask). I just came up with the story that I had an aromatherapist friend who rustled me up a strange brew of EOs, and “I haven’t a clue what is in them.” LOL, never had to use the story.
I guess it’s hard for me to feel confident and sexy when the scent makes ME sick when I’m wearing it and it’s had plenty of opportunity to ‘dry down’.
It (and Sexiness) remind me of what I’ve smelled on women who appear to be hookers or similar, that I’ve seen on the street in the past. Just too strong, too acrid - too much.
