I decided to make a journal for my own use, for [Instant Openness](https://a314.com/product/instant-openness/), but i dont mind you guys looking at it too. Starting off with a single product, will test it for 1 week

Regular Bottle,

1x Strength,

Version 1.0

**Scent** - Neroli, although a female friend of mine reported that something smells like alcohol about 3 times when we were in a car, was sat next to her, in the back seat. Asked if any of us have been drinking today, We haven’t. She said someone has clearly put too much aftershave on. Smell is too strong. I kept quet. She didnt find out. I like the scent overall.

**Day 1** - 1 Spray to neck, applied it 3 times during the day in total, about every 3-4 hours, as i noticed self effects to start fading away.

**Environment -** Train, Car, Bar, shop, - Averagely crowded.

**Self Effects** - Applied 1 x spray to the neck, at home, leftfelt alot more at ease and confident, like i could go upto almost anyone and start making a conversation. Felt completely at ease. Im usually tensed and abit shy at the start if i gotta talk to people i don’t really know. Felt abit chatty as well. Later during the day, where my mate works at a shop, (shop assistant) as we were chatting, his friend, she also works there, came up to us and starting asking about us, how we know each other etc. I was really confident in chatting to her, first time i met her, but after a couple of mins she had to leave. Didn’t really wanna let her go, as i thought she’s cute 😉 Was like: Cya later 😉

**Noticed effects to others. -** Spoke to several people that day. Had 3 friends with me in the evening, in a bar. People i made small time conversations with, i.e. the girl in a shop, didn’t really seem to be affected by IO at all, they just carried on as normal. Didn’t really seem to be that interested in me.

_Possible IO hits?_ 😑 :s - Really not sure. (Age range 18-21)

- A female friend of mine mentioned something smells of alcohol.
- When me and my friend sat in his car, while driving, he started telling me how his day went, etc small talk. He usually doesn’t start convos when he is driving. I dont know. maybe he was just being nice. Everything seemed to go quet when i felt self effects fading away.
- Friends in a car seemed to be hyper. Everyone was talking and laughing on the way to the bar. But most of the time they are hyper, each time we meet up.
- 2 female friends, were taking pictures, so they took loads of me, and when me and the 2 fem friends wanted one with me, but they did get quet close to me on the pics, one even rested her head on my shoulder, other didn’t really mind if i touched her ass (touched it by accident) but she didnt like move out the way, she just sat there. I don’t know. Could have been 2 bottles of wine. As i was behaving all night. Had 2 beers myself.
- Really small increase of attention when i got something to say?
- Overall With 1x spray, i felt alot more confident in myself, and alot more in control. I wanted to be the respectful guy in a group, instead of a drunken asshole i usually am, who loves to get wasted on weekends. My friends where surprised that i only had 2 bottles of beer overall, took my time as well. About 40 min each bottle.  
Still felt kinda shy around this younger girl, who kept giving me looks on the train station, she was like 15-16. Was really good looking. But maybe because i just feel talking to girls 17+ alot more comfortable, where as 15-15-16 feels abit young for me.

**Range** - 1-5m radius

**Time response -** Can’t really say, as im not sure if i had any hits.

**Effects on others -** Friends being hyper? Maybe nothing to do with IO. as they usualy are talkative.

**Duration of Effect** - Felt self effects for about 3 hours. (Increased confidence to go up and chat to most people i see. Resprayed every 4. Just to be on the safe side. 😉

End of Day 1. Will try 2 x Spray on neck on Day 2.

Good report, it’s good to notice all the things you mentioned. After a few days with and without IO you’ll start to pick up a pattern of things that you’ll start to realize are the hits.

How long after you sprayed did the girl mention thealcohol smell? It takes 5 - 15 minutes for it to dry down completely.

About 10 minutes Before. We were in a car for almost 40 minutes, she was complaining about it all the way through lol. She had a flu as well.

**Day 2** - 2 Sprays on neck, 1 on left side, 1 on right side.

No Hits What so ever. Nothing to report. Applied it twice. Every 4 hours. With 2 Sprays. Environments pretty much same as yesterday.

Had about 4 beers at friends place.

Was kinda giving up on pheros by now. thinking this is b_ **s** _\*.

After 2nd time of applying to the neck. I thought what the heck, i might as well put 1 more spray on front of my neck, that was 2 hours later, Front to my neck. So _i guess_ i was wearing _3 Sprays_ to my neck.

**Environment** - Bar.

**Self Effects** - Pretty much the same, as from day one. Maybe felt abit more confident, but i did have a pint of beer, and a glass of Baileys. So that could be related.

_Note I applied the 3rd Spray 2 hours later, after applying the 2nd time of x2 sprays, in that bar, (toilets) for first 15 minutes i didn’t notice anything change thinking this stuff really sucks, now, getting pissed off that i spent 50$ but.._

**Noticed effects to others -** I came back to the bar, sat down, as i was having my beer, the barmade, and barman, started to look at my glass, almost checking if it was full, and each time they walked passed me, they quickly turned their heads round to my direction. I thought; nah, can’t be, they just doing their job, but i looked at other customers to see if that was happening to them, and nope. Not a single look of the staff.

- The woman (half caucasian, half asian, age range 27, same description for the man) Started trying to catch my eye. So i looked up at her, and i said, you alright? She kinda pretended she didn’t hear me, but probably because she knew she had a job to do, instead of chatting to customers

- The manager or something walked past, looked at my glass as well. It was like ‘‘I’m a Respectful guy, so treat me nice, look after me’’

- Halfway through my drink, the lady behind the bar, throws some paper tissues to put under my glass of beer, and a glass of Baileys. Thanked her. Again she was quet.

- Some woman From behind came to order some stuff, but she seemed comfortable being around me, started to lean in to back of my chair. Possibly cause she had abit to drink. Was hard to tell.

- When i got out the bar, and i was walking past people, going down the stairs of an escalator.. etc.. most of them seemed to turn their head towards me, as if they felt comfortable.

- On a train when i sat next to people, (male/female) they wanted to make eye contact.

_Could be random, could be possible hits._

**Range** - 1 - 2m radius

**Time response -** Bar staff, almost instant, as soon as they smelt it, same for most people.

**Effects on others -** Making eye contact.

**Duration of Effect** - Can’t really say, as i had abit of alcohol, and came home after 2 hours of putting the 3rd spray on. Everyone was asleep when i came back.

P.S. It didn’t seem to work on black people. Mainly Caucasians

End of Day 2. Will keep testing. next day with 3 Sprays on my neck

**Day 3** - 3 Sprays on neck, applied twice during the day every 4 hours.

**Environment -** Public transport. At my mom’s friend’s house, although i never have met her before.

**Self Effects** - Confidence to talk to random people.

**Noticed effects on others -** On the train, _some_ females seemed to be alot more comfortable around me, (age range 20-30, multicurtural) they would turn their head in my direction, almost as if they were smiling at me, but very few of them made eye contact. Although some did, but it was only very short before they looked away. They felt at ease.

- Mom’s friend said i’m good with people, i would make a good lawyer.

- Everyone i spoke to today, (about 3-4 people) i said some stuff which is meant to be slightly funny, but i wasn’t expecting them all to laugh, or even smile at it, but each time i made a little comment, they seemed to laugh at my jokes (which aren’t usualy funny cause im not even trying to be funny, and i been told that my jokes suck by friends) This stuff seems to put people in a good mood around me, and laugh at small little things, as if i was a comedian. Wasn’t tryin to be funny intentionaly at all. 😑

- Black male, was speaking to his son, waiting for the elevator, (early 30’s) started looking at me and started chatting to me. Was telling me how he was gonna hold the door for his wife, so she could get it, i replied: ‘‘Yeah i see, she has too much stuff on her hands right now eh?’’ Again, he laughed, as if i made a really funny joke.

I think im getting hits on some people. They won’t really approach me, unless i start interacting with them (i.e. talking). Some people seemed to be abit abnormal. As if i brought them a really good mood.

**Range** - 3m radius

**Time response -** my ‘‘subjects’’ almost responded immediately. As long as im in a closed environment. When i go outside, and it gets abit windy, i seem to loose my confidence to go upto anyone and talk with them.

**Effects on others** - Some people seemed to be more happy than usual.

**Duration of effect** - Roughly 4 hours.

End of Day 3

Should i go for 4 sprays the next day, or should i keep testing 3, for another day? What you think guys? Going to get a haircut tommorow.
