There ya go! I don’t know about A314 (especially since it is oil based it is going to have a pretty healthy phero content) but I believe I read somewhere that [Instant Gentleman](https://a314.com/product/gentleman/) is something like ~12.5 mcg of androsterone with a few ‘steering pheromones’. All I know is that it works wonderfully to make people see you as important, approachable and fun. 🙂 ---

The upside is that you may not need to apply quite so much in the first place. Also just be aware that mones such as Androsterone and Androstenol break down and convert to Androstenone after awhile. The heat will speed this up, so don’t be too quick to re-apply 'None based products or you may find yourself accidentally overdosing. ---

Yeah, I’m confused about it too, because as I heard it, Pheros are an ingredient in sweat naturally… ---

I live in Florida, where its High Temperature and High Humidty, and I sometimes get sweaty just from walking from one class to the next… ~Rone can convert to ~none on skin from the bacteria breaking it down. I believe this is perpetuated by heavy perspiration. I had this problem here in N.GA this summer. To offset this try applying to hair or clothing. Avoiding applying after heaving sweating altogether, only after showering. ---

Wait… The whole R-one Nol and N-one thing is still really confusing… What is it that IS IO and IG use? and Why is N-one different than R-one or Nol? ---

> [@Zansteps](#): > > Wait… The whole R-one Nol and N-one thing is still really confusing… What is it that IS IO and IG use? and Why is N-one different than R-one or Nol? (from L-S) -nol (or aNOL) = Androstenol (very slight or no odor, “friendly pheromone”) -none (or aNONE) = androstenone (stinky, “alpha male”) -rone (or aRONE) = androsterone (slight musk odor, may make other pheros work better) These are considered your main 3 pheromones. ---

> [@Zansteps](#): > > Wait… The whole R-one Nol and N-one thing is still really confusing… What is it that IS IO and IG use? and Why is N-one different than R-one or Nol? Instant Shine is predominantly a molecule nicknamed TAA. [Instant Gentleman](https://a314.com/product/gentleman/) is predominantly A’Rone. Instant Openness is about 70% Alpha Androstenol and 30% Beta Androstenol. If you haven’t already, read Snook’s post in the stickies at the top of this forum. Basically, everything on this site is either a known pheromone or something that it is believed could be a pheromone. They all do different things - some well known, others not so which is why you see people testing the Putatives (P126,125 etc) As Peregrine said, the three best known ones are A’None, A’Nol and A’Rone.

Hey Peeps, I know the conversion has steered a little away from IG but I got a good tip to share: I find IG and A314 kinda similar in the general way that rone makes you seem masculine in a smooth and non-hostile way. (as opposed to none) However, A314 has none in it and I suspect that the main difference in effects come from this. A314 makes you seem older and more intimidating while IG makes you seem younger and fresher. A314 seems to work better with older women and IG with younger women. What this means (at least this has worked for me) is that you can customize various IG + A314 combos to target specific female age groups or even specific women. As a 29 yr old graduate student, I use pure IG on undergraduate women I socialise with, 2 sprays:1 drop mix for undergraduate women I teach, A314 (plus some nol) with professors and a 1 spray:1 drop mix for graduate student women. Overall, I have now build myself a reputation for both competence and freshness. Also, with any of these combinations, I find that IS goes very well into the mix, though I have to use at least 3 sprays to see any added effect. Hope that helps. ---

At least from my experience, it will work just fine. It helps the people giving the interview to see you as an upbeat guy who has it together. ---

> [@TheGoon6](#): > > What are the immediate effects on women concerning sexual or general romantic attraction hits? I’ve seen women become attracted to me when wearing IG, because I seem like an important guy who has it together. It seems to invoke a strong (but approachable) Alpha vibe with people in general. IG and IS seem to especially hit women who are generally more introverted (or maybe they just appear to react more strongly because they are normally more reserved). IG also seems to hit the younger women 18-25 especially hard. I get hit on by 20 year olds when wearing IG, IO and IS. Does wonders for the ego! 🙂 One of my favorite mixes for going out at night (before I went off the deep end learning about the Advanced section) was IG, TUTH, IO, IS. I was amazed at how the combo worked for me. [Ammo](https://a314.com/product/ammo/) for some reason doesn’t really do much for me but IG and TUTH worked very well. ---

I’m about to purchase these four and I was curious how many sprays you did of each and the locations for each of them as well. I know a lot of people have done well with your spray/location recommendations so I figure you’d know a good estimate of where to start.
