Hi, Simple question I’ve noticed that some of you guys wear several products at the same time, is there a problem of coming of as a walking cologne store? Is there a problem of suffocating other people around you with all the different combos? Can people become confused by all the different smells? Are these the real reasons why everyone gets the attention and hits?😃 ---

But as for “smells” - all of our products except A314, some MXs, ammo and TUTH come in [Neroli](https://a314.com/product-category/scented/androtics-neroli/) which is lightly fragrances orange blossom flower. ---

Yeah [Neroli](https://a314.com/product-category/scented/androtics-neroli/) is awesome so if you can get all you stuff in the same scent you’re golden. If you’re in Sales it can be kind of tricky since even a scent can throw off a potential sale, so keep it real light or none at all. (depending on what you sell of course) Maybe just some a314. Just my 2 cents. ---

One of my most blatant hits was a combination of A314 (akuto, musks etc) plus F22 and [Neroli](https://a314.com/product-category/scented/androtics-neroli/)…Steeler Girl had kind of fallen out of the honeymoon stage and would show up for an afternoon out just kind of thrown together. She got in the car and said.. after I told her how good she smelled…“So do you, what is that?” She had a hungry look in her eye LOL. Well the very next morning I went to pick her up and this was early, she had already spent like 2-3 hours getting ready for me…LOL. ---

> [@](#): > > Is there a problem of suffocating other people around you with all the different combos? Of course there comes to a point when you smell overwhelming but neroli drys down light and fresh so it takes a bit more then it would with a cologne or a perfume. This is why you see so many people getting away with wearing so much. > [@](#): > > Can people become confused by all the different smells? Not with the neroli, thats another great thing about the scent. Its blends with just about anything. Most products come in that scent anyways. > [@](#): > > Are these the real reasons why everyone gets the attention and hits?😃 No people tend not to hit if they think you smell overwhelming or you confuse them.

The answer is yes, there is a problem with smelling too strong… The solution is unscented, oil-based formulations that last longer. Matt ---

Naturally they are carried by your BO and well …body odor is not attractive. If you stink like BO it doesn’t matter what your mones are saying. Unscented converts at the same rate but you notice the stink faster and more prominently. Course you can cover unscented with a scent of your own but all scents wont bind with mones especially on the skin so there are many drawbacks to unscented. Oil does last longer but it much more subtle because it slows diffusion due to the molecular weight. Oils tend to not create good sillage as well so you need to be close to your targets. Again there are drawbacks to this type of product as well. Sometimes its hard to get a clear indication on whether your over scented or not. Some scents molecules are stinky and stay in the nasal canal and you can have the perception that you are over scented when your not. Some scents you become conditioned to so you cant consciously smell them on yourself even though other can. If your unsure whether you over scented of not reset your olfactory system. Go get a can of ground coffee and stick your nose in there and inhale the scent for 10 seconds. The scent of coffee resets you sense of smell so you can get a true indication of the scent your wearing. Tish ---

Good point Tisha. It doesn’t help that my sense of smell is HORRIBLE. Just horrible after working in a chemistry lab for so long and damaging all of my odor receptors from sniffing a lot of chemicals I probably shouldn’t have been sniffing. That’s why I’m so anal retentive about application times etc. because I really have no idea when to re-apply or how much I smell. ODing is quite common without due diligence. The concept of apply-and-forget oil is very, very appealing to me. -Matt > [@tisha23](#): > > Thats not a perfect solution either, pheromones need to bind and be carried into the air within a scent.

Interesting info, thank you. It’s good to know that I can get full answers here. So to clarify, one can wear a few of the socials at the same time? BTW if this info in a FAQ or am I being blind? ---

> [@Luke\_Skywalker](#): > > does the uncovered scent smell like hydrogen sulphide or ammonian sulphide? How does it smell like? No it generally doesnt have a sulfate smell. It can smell acidic though similar to ammonia. It really depends on the pheromone. Anone can smell like cat piss or ammonia. Anol smells like dirty feet to me. Bnol has no real scent I can detect. arone and a1 are more of a musky male scent. The pheromones will convert on the body due to your own pheromone secretion and bacteria. Bacteria is what causes body odor not your actual sweat. Your diet will cause you to sweat out certain compounds so if you getting the smell of sulfur which resembles rotton acidic eggs then it could be from something your eating that is being secreted and its a chemical reaction between the corneyform and your natural sweat. Some medications can cause this as well. So it could be a number of things Tisha
