Last night I threw on 2 x 2x IO (one to my forearms and the other to the back of my neck) and was shooting some dice with my wife. She smelled it right away (she knows that I wear mones) and mentioned it didn’t smell bad but was “musky”. We had a good time - both of us were very giddy (along with a couple glasses of wine) for a couple of hours. At some point, we decided to watch a movie. She said she was all of a sudden getting really irritated by the smell and was even having trouble breathing. Now, I’ve worn this much around her before but, she does have a cold and I was right next to her for a good 2 hours. I ended up showering and we finished the movie. We went up to bed and she mentioned she felt “brain dead”. I guess it was a neurotransmitter overload combined with irritation from her cold. As far as self effect, I felt pretty normal after some giddiness. Would you call this an OD? ---

Maybe. We choose partners who are diverse and different in genes and genetic makeup. Genes are no doubt taken into account when considering olfactory reactions and neurotransmitters. So if that holds true and you two are genetically different it isn’t surprising that one has a completely different experience to [pheromones](https://a314.com/) than the other. You could call it an OD or you chalk it up to genes. Better safe than sorry, in this case. AD’s Pheromones are super powerful… ---

Try it again when she is over the cold and see if you get the same response.
