Just got my shipment of pheros yesterday. For some reason, it was shipped express
THANK YOU.
This will be my journal… It’s mostly here just so I can keep track of things. If I didn’t put it somewhere, I’d never remember. I’m too scatter-brained ![]()
The neroli smelled like men’s cologne, which makes sense, as women can get away with that more than a man can get away with wearing lady smells. It faded within 15-20 minutes, and was not an obvious scent at all. I like it. It reminds me of the men’s cologne section in a department store… very generic, and I couldn’t really isolate specific odors. I understand how it would blend well.
The chocolatini was pretty strong upon initial application, and wasn’t much subtler after dry down. It’s a very rich, dry chocolate scent, not overly sweet, and reminded me of the icing on a chocolate dessert I had once at a high-end restaurant. After about an hour, I spritzed some Pink Sugar over it, and liked it much better. Still nice by itself, but I’m addicted to Pink Sugar lately.
First product I tried was double strength Instant Honesty. I wanted to get used to how it felt before I wore it around anyone and spilled my stinkin’ guts. One spray split between wrists. My hands are usually by my face unless I’m speaking; it’s a habit I’ve had since very young, so I figured this was a good place to apply. No noted self effects while on the phone or IM.
Five hours later I showered and tried MX135. I sprayed twice to my chest, spread it around with my fingertips, and rubbed it off on my upper lip. Then I pulled my lips in and sprayed once to the muzzle area of my face. I really just wanted to discern self-effects, as no one was around. I applied while on the phone with my most recent ex (I’ll call him my Cheshire Cat). Hard to tell, because I genuinely love talking to him, but there may have been an elevation of mood. He had to go within 20 minutes, and I really just wanted to talk to someone. I think it was because I didn’t wanna waste the pheros. If the bottle is 6.5cm from base of bottle to base of nozzle, my MX135 was filled to about 4.75cm. Don’t know why, as my Instant product was filled to the brim, but who cares? I just need to be more careful with it. Well anyway, no obvious self effects. I can still smell it on me about 17 hours later.
OH! Wait! Possible self-effect! I wasn’t nearly as paranoid as usual. Not much looking over my shoulder, checking behind the shower curtain, or feeling like someone was gonna grab my ankle and drag me off the bed in the middle of the night. In fact, I thought of these things, but didn’t take them seriously, and shrugged off potential worry. More testing will be done to see if this is due to the MX135.
Speculation: MadisonTate mentioned in his journal that, when using artificial pheros, your body thinks someone else is around. Perhaps I was comforted by a phantom “presence”? When someone’s with me, I don’t hallucinate…
