I’m having a bit of trouble with this one. I bought the unscented version.
Well, I’m having a hard time seeing the effects of this one. I have not gone above 3 sprays yet so it may just be I haven’t found my sweet spot. Or it could be that I don’t know what results I should be looking for. I get what the product is supposed to do, but again, just can’t make the connection.

I’ve used it in business and social settings.
I just ordered mine (my first order from the site) and have not yet received it, however here is what it’s suppose to do. This is just what I’ve gathered from reading many topics.
It’s suppose to be like those group therapy sessions where everyone makes each other feel better/good. This should have the same effect: except, no group sessions are needed. Everyone knows that they feel good because you are around. The general atmosphere around you is suppose to be happier/friendlier.
I really didn’t start noticing the effects on myself much unless:
A) I sprayed a shot of it on my beard or face and I was seriously depressed to begin with, or
B) I was wearing 4 or 5 sprays of it for a while.
It is fairly subtle. Seems to work best with Alpha-Nol for me. The effects I noticed were a happier openness with alpha nol, and making the girlies want to be physically close to me more. As in, coming over to sit at my feet. Which I observed a couple times. Shine makes others feel good being around you, too.
I don’t see much from shine either.. I bought a 2x bottle (though there was no sticker on the bottom when I got it..) started off with a few sprays to the neck and finished with like 6 sprays same location… still nothing. I need to try this out around other ppl. maybe some effects on them? Hope so..
I get comments on wearing IS alone. Several girls have told me it smells great. However, self affects only last <15 minutes and I usually reapply after 2-3 hours if I want to keep the effects on other people up. Overall I like it a lot, always use it with ammo.
I guess you two have the misfortune of Instant Shine having little to no self effect.
As others have said IS can at times be subtle, however your luck should change once you find the right dosage. Two sprays of 2X usually results close proximity from complete strangers and repeated ‘accidental’ bumpings for me.
