so a lot of the bottles i’ve had for a year or more seem to be losing there juice? does the alcohol evaporate making the -mone content less affective? im getting less hits these days…  
my other theory was maybe your body can reach a peak level of -mone output, so that furteht synthetics added become superfluous, and further progression is thus not possible. ie. the synthetics have optimised my natural [pheromones](https://pheromonelabs.com/) to the point where i can gain just as much benefit from synthetics as i do with a natural pheromone profile??? any thoughts from the phero intelligentsia?

I think what is really happening is that even with you alternating through different products, people around you may be getting used to the “amped up” you. I know several people who have mentioned that this happens to them - Gegogig comes to mind immediately.

I know I rotate through A314 and [Instant Gentleman](https://a314.com/product/gentleman/) as base products and quite often the most I can wear just one is about a week. People have just gotten used to the signature so now it is just “me”. I will see bigger reactions the first few days after I shift from say Instant Gentleman to A314 for the first few days and then things will smooth out unless I up the dose. And depending on the day I will tweak it with one of the socials.
