Hi everyone, so I am sort of cheating in terms of the guidelines that Tisha provided for reporting pheromone usage, as it has not yet been a full week. I’ve only used the pheromones twice, and targeted only ONE person (my BOYFRIEND!) Here is my original intent in experimenting with the pheromones (as explained by my introduction)- [Hello, from a new user in CA!](https://pheromonetalk.com/t/hello-from-a-new-user-in-ca/32334)  
Anyhow, I received IS/a and IH (in the TOGO sprays under suggestions of more experienced users) and IO as a free gift (Thanks Jacob!) And I also think I got a piece of chocolate as well?? 🙂 Lol, here is a breakdown of my usage in these past few days.

**Product name,scent and strength**  
I first tried Instant Sexiness A, default scent-neroli, and set strength level. I chose Instant Sexiness A rather than B because I identify more with Angelina Jolie than Marilyn Monroe. I am by no means a kittenish, girlish type!

**Application dosage and locations**  
I put on three sprays, two to each side of the neck and one split between my wrists. I also sprayed Victoria’s Secret “PINK” to my shirt in case the bf didn’t take to the neroli scent.

**Enviroment tested in.**  
The first time I used IS/a was actually during a panel discussion at my boyfriend’s grad school! The second time around I just wore it when I went to the bf’s house to hang out. These past few days in southern California have been particularly warm though (90’s during the day, mid-70’s in the evenings). Both times I’ve worn the pheromones were during the evenings.

**Self effects.**  
I’m not sure how I felt…I mean, I can’t say 100% that it was on part of the pheromones that I felt confident–because I feel like in a way, it could like reading horoscopes. If you believe in them, you will act/behave in a way that will fulfill the “prophecy” or look for certain events that stay true to the forecast. However, I do recall feeling unusually sure of myself, and that nothing could bring me down during my usage of the pheromones. While driving in the car, I would try to find music on the radio to help my mood of confidence, haha!

**Effects to others**  
1st day: Graduate school panel discussion  
I attended a panel discussion of professionals (as my bf is in a healthcare professional grad school) with him, and I got mostly positive responses to my presence. I noticed that his female classmates were particularly outgoing and friendly toward me, very approachable and ready to introduce themselves. I didn’t sense any vibe of competitiveness that others have mentioned in their experiences, so I was VERY THANKFUL for that. I am usually not a catty person at all, and I was fearful that I would observe that amongst the crowd I was in. Also, during the panel discussion itself, my boyfriend was very affectionate. However, he is usually an affectionate person and usually is touching me in some way (he even holds my hand in the car while driving…sighhh :o) so I’m not sure what to make of it. Despite the distant placement of the chairs in the lecture hall, he made sure that he was holding my hand at all times. His friend, however, who was sitting on the other side of me, was VERY chatty! It was a great welcome, and change somewhat, from our previous encounters. I had met him before a couple of times and I had only brief conversations that didn’t amount to much. However, after the panel was over and the bf left to go talk to a few panelists, his friend and I had a great conversation getting to know each other for approximately 40 minutes! He was really open and candid when speaking to me…you would have thought I used [Instant Openness](https://a314.com/product/instant-openness/) instead!! I would say that it was a successful night in terms of mingling with his classmates, if anything 🙂

2nd day: Hanging out at the bf’s house  
When I first arrived at the bf’s casa, there was nothing unusual about our encounter. However, before we became intimate, I noticed that I was a lot more aggressive in pursuing him physically than I usually am, and that could have been attributed to my self-assured mood (he had also mentioned, however, that he wished that I were more aggressive with him). He liked the aggressiveness and even went on to say that I was teasing him 😛. He’s actually also VERY BIG on scents, and I noticed he was constantly sniffing around my neck! He didn’t comment that I smelled nice or anything (as he usually does when I wear perfume) but he kept smelling me so I don’t take that as a bad sign! And his sentiments were along the lines of “I gotta have you RIGHT NOW”…but then again, I’m not sure if it was due to the pheromones or because we hadn’t been intimate for approximately four days~I asked him if he felt particularly amorous tonight and he bluntly stated that he’s **ALWAYS** horny, haha. So I still don’t know if it is the pheromones or my own resolution to take action that encouraged the mood of this rendezvous.

**Duration of effects.**  
Hmm…well I was only exposed to the bf for approximately three hours the first day before I went home after the panel, and the next evening I used the pheromones I was with him for 3-4 hours as well.

**Effects from mixing with other products.**  
I haven’t mixed IS/a with any of the other pheromones under Tisha’s guide that I try one pheromone at a time. Next week, however, I am going to mix in Instant Honesty to try to deepen our bond and make our time together more meaningful, in addition to having that sexual tension 😃

**Range**  
10 feet? I’m not sure, but during his grad school panel I noticed friendliness from his classmates at a considerable radius of a few feet.

**Time exposure**.  
I’m not exactly sure how to answer this question…I didn’t shower immediately after using the pheromones…as in, I’ve slept with them on. The first night had no adverse effects on me, but the second night I used them I had a dream about my bf…and it wasn’t a good one! I had a dream that he disappointed me in some way…but we were on our way towards a resolution until my alarm clock woke me up for work. Does anyone have experiences with pheromones affecting your dreams?

Anyway…this was a REALLY, really long post, so I appreciate you taking the time to read this if you managed to get through all of the babble. I know it sounds a little indecisive and fickle with my uncertainty as to what to attribute the events of evenings to…but I’m wondering if you guys have any advice for an inexperienced user like myself! Thanks again, everyone! 🙂

Great report 🙂

I feel your getting hits already. Keep in mind that in a professional setting the hits will be more on the friendly chatty side. People hold themselves to certain behavior in this type environment. Women will react well to [Instant sexiness](https://phera.com/product/instant-sexiness/) A as well as the men.

With your boyfriend it is going to be harder to see the results clearly. He is already into you so a lot of his normal behavior already qualifies as hits. I would just keep using it around him and give him time to register the increased feelings he is getting and see if his behavior intensifies. I do think the mones enhanced his mood but the best way to be sure is repeated testing.

I enjoyed reading your account. Makes me want to get back out this weekend and try my IS/a again. I had great responses to it when I tried it in an outdoor tiki bar setting, from both men and women! Thanks!

Thank You for your report!

I have to say that I’m a believer!
