What does Instant Openness do for me? Absolutely nothing. No reaction from anybody, at all - not myself and not those around me. I was most disappointed I only have a ToGo and I know that’s not the most powerful format, but I started today with a few sprays and got nothing at all. At lunchtime I added a few more sprays: nothing. After work I was meeting my husband for dinner, so added a few more sprays: nothing. The little 5ml vial is almost gone now so I won’t have much opportunity to test this further… am I doing something wrong?
I dont use my IO very much because it keeps me up at night for some reason and I have really weird dreams. The reactions I do get when I use it are not sexual in nature. People are nicer more chatty then usual and easier to talk to.
Where did you spray it? How many sprays and what strength is it ?
Instant Openness is not primarily used for romance, although I’m sure a little openness couldn’t hurt in that department. She’s looking for friendly reactions from other people. There are many social pheromones sold at Androtics that can be used safely in social and work environments.
Try not to jump to such harsh conclusions, please.
There are products that don’t do much for me, and others that do. It also takes a while to get the hang of using pheromones, working with them, and knowing a reaction when you see it. The people who are familiar with you pre-pheromones are likely to NOT show reactions much; they’ve already formed their perception and patterns of behavior with you and unless your behavior changes, theirs will be slow to do so. It’s the people who are unfamiliar with you - particularly in social situations, not at your job or other places where there are great social restraints on behavior - who will show you the most overt reactions. Alcohol has an interesting relationship with pheros - it’s best to avoid drinking yourself, because it clouds your perceptions, but others around you who are drinking will be less inhibited from responding to your pheromones.
ManWitAPlan, that’s an interesting take on marriage … it’s not a tomb, as far as I’m concerned. The more you enjoy your life - including enjoying your interactions with other people - the better spouse you’ll be.
Are you already a pretty social person? Some people are easy to talk to and naturally inspire confidence and conversation. If you are such a person already the IO might not add much.
lol, the reason why i am here instead of any other pheromone forum MWP, is that androtics makes pheromones for any and all relationship applications.
relationships are with everyone you meet, its how you interact with people.
i wear IO out at the local hangouts, because it makes people gabby.
i mean real gabby
a few people have been obsessed with the smell comming off of me right when i have sprayed it !
honeytheif-
you wont always see bizarre reactions, but more often than not someone new to pheromones should bring a spotter.
after you get used to what to look for, it becomes second nature.
definately bring a spotter, IO has got to be one of my necessities for a fun night out.
one thing i have noticed is that if i apply too much androstenol, i get a sleepy reaction from some people.
its possible you relaxed them
dont give up on your first attempt with a new product; i didnt start out with an androtics product but it took me a week to get a pattern down with pheromone usage, and today i am no where near an expert
Hmmm not sure I agree with you there! A life with nobody noticing me or paying me any attention at all but my spouse would be a very dull one and I would become a very dull person, I think. Do you think that marriage should be a little insulated bubble that excludes the rest of the world?
Anyway, back to the Instant Openness. I just have the default ToGo strength and I started off with just a couple of sprays on my wrists and chest, then added some more there plus devil horns, and by the end of the day I was just spraying it randomly all over the place I am normally quite a chatty sociable person anyway, but yesterday I just couldn’t get a conversation out of anyone. My workmates can usually be prompted to chatter away if I start the conversation, but the whole place was silent yesterday. Even when somebody from another team invited us all to the main kitchen to hang out and eat birthday cake, nobody seemed very chatty or keen to talk to me.
My normally very talkative husband actually seemed quieter than usual too when we went out for dinner. Maybe I got a bottle of Instant Closedness by mistake
I haven’t written it off completely yet, because I know from reading here that it can take time to figure out how to make something work on you, but I don’t think I’ll be ordering the full size just yet…
I think Lor is right and you may have used to much, Mine is 2x strength and I only use 1 spray. That all I can handle with IO. My friend at work uses regular strengh and applies 3 sprays. I think everyone reacts a little different to some products and has to find there sweet spot.
Well I still have a little bit left so I will try with just one spray - maybe the three I started out with was actually too much. Thanks for the advice.
Well said Carrie. Heck I’m married but am not deaf or blind. I like to feel attractive to the opposite sex just like my hubby does. As long as there’s trust in a relationship you have nothing to worry about. My husband loves it when his friends lust after me it reaffirms the fact that he has a HOT!!! wife.
I have MX140 (which I have already tried and liked), Instant Honesty, and MX134.
I’m going to a wedding reception in a couple of hours (a casual affair in a bar) and was thinking of trying IO again. What do you think, should I try it on its own again or mix it with Instant Honesty?
Hmmm, no response and we have to leave soon. I am going to try a little bit of IO and a little bit of IH and see what happens. I will have to socialise with lots of people that I’ve never met before, so if it helps me be more open and talkative then that won’t be a bad thing
Last night went well - not sure if it was what I was wearing or how much everybody around me was drinking (quite likely the latter), but our table was really lively and it was really good fun. People were chatty and friendly and everybody had a good time.
I will try MX140 and IO together next time I’m going out to that kind of event (if I have any left by then!). I do love the mellowness I get - and give - from MX140.
wow, i am so sorry i wasnt on the forum when you posted honeytheif, but its sounds like everything went well !
anytime i would like to hear how well something i am trying is making someone feel, i pair it with IH heavy and see if i cant get them to open up about it.
i’ll bet MX140 and IH would really get some reaction for you !
or MX134 and IH for that matter,
I seem to already get a bit of social interaction going naturally (personality I guess), so IOpen probably has a somewhat minimal effect overall for me, but I think it DOES do something.
I’ve noticed when I wear a spray or two, and am around people for at least 5 to 10 minutes, conversation (sometimes) seems to get more lively. In fact it gets to the point where at times I wish some people would shut up! Note: it may not effect all other people to the same degree. Like with most any other pheromone some people may be more receptive/be more affected by certain pheromones. Plus overall health and mood may play a part.
I know at one lunch gathering (about a 45 minute affair) we had some good talk going, to the point where when we broke up one person even said “that was some good conversation” (so they may have felt it was out of the norm for us). It probably took about 10 minutes before things got rolling.
IOpenness is to me more of a social lubricant that helps an already running machine so to speak. It may not have the power to kick start something that’s stuck. It may not be able to initiate conversations in situations where no-one wants to talk, but once things get moving… And it’s effects may be extemely subtle. It may ramp things up a lot, or very little depending on all sorts of factors.
I only have a ToGo and I know that’s not the most powerful format, but I started today with a few sprays and got nothing at all. At lunchtime I added a few more sprays: nothing. After work I was meeting my husband for dinner, so added a few more sprays: nothing.
