I read here and there that NPA was to be mixed with perfumes like Azzaro Chrome.
I bought one of these, but it’s completely impossible to open the bottle. The spray is sealed. 
Where can i find a bottle that i can open ?
Could you just just the Spray itself and spray into an empty perfume bottle and mix with your Azzaro there?
Hell i didn’t think of that. Instead of that i JUST cracked the bottle open with a pair of pliers, the spray (with a little glass) broke gently, leaving the bottle opened.
Then i took a togo 5 ml bottle, put approximately on 4 parts of Chrome and 1 part of NPA.
Dunno how many sprays i have to use now. One or two ?
I’m going to work tomorrow, i usually use A314 (three sprays) and IS (three or four sprays) to be just right with people and myself, but later after work i’ll have a coffee with a new girl.
I was thinking of switching to 1 spray NPA, 2 p75 and 2 IG (not to be too harsh for a first date outside work).
What do you think about that ?
Yes, that does sound good as the P75 should help temper NPA along with IG. I would even think of dropping NPA, just going for P75 and IG.
Then, at the next coffee date, bring in the NPA to that combo.
My 2 cents.. 
1Alpha
.
P75 would temper NPA ? Woooow wait a minute, in what way ?
For what i read, P75 is giving some strong, masculine vibe, than can even be frightening or intimidating in some cases. How could that thing could temper anything ?
By tempering, i was thinking about IG mostly
Sorry, yes, I was referring to IG. NPA is pretty masculine already…
Currently I experiment with a NPA - A1 - CoolWater - Mix with great results
My currently formular is:
0.4 ml A1 (=400 mcg A1)
0.6 ml NPA (=144 mcg None + 144 mcg secret mones)
2.5 ml Cool Water
mixed in a togo-bottle with 0.125 ml/spray
One spray provides me:
14.28 mcg A1
5.14 mcg none from the NPA
5.14 mcg secret from the NPA
0.089 ml Cool Water.
One or two spray on the t-shirt or on the neck and you will get hits as…
much more eye-contact by women.
approaching by women (most 25-40 years old and attractive)
touching by women
in the club: women dance near by you
long talks with women
get telefon-numbers without asking about that
get braekfast from woman you have met last night 
I have a depression history. So I am not sure A1 is a really good idea for me 
Having a history of depression is no indication that you will have problems with A1. This is a specific reaction to the phero itself and not related to any other condition. Besides, its more of a “downer” effect, rather than full-on depression. Many people get this confused and assume the worst - It can be stopped simply by washing the A1 off.
Also remember there is some A1 in NPA already.
And to save damaging perfume bottles, you should get a perfume funnel and just spray into that instead. Much easier!
I’ll keep that in mind
Hi, Stuttgart man I’m interested in the A1, NPA, Cool water mix, love cool water.
Just curious on how your getting exact measurements, example from dropper or syringe etc.
I’m just waiting for the NPA to arrive.
There are any amount of threads that go into the detail of mixing NPA here already - try a search!
Accurate disposable measuring pipettes are in the store here for a dollar a pop, or you can get a box of a hundred off ebay for less than ten dollars.
And if you can stand it, Cool Water is an excellent cologne for mixes - I don’t know how often I’ve heard women say how much of a turn-on they find the smell, esp on a slightly sweaty guy. Sadly it is one that gives me irritation similar to Ammo/FF21, so I can’t use it for long. 
“Also remember there is some A1 in NPA already.”
Really? Where did you get that and on what authority? Personally I strongly doubt it.
As to mixing, why bother? Just dab on NPA to the best spots in the amounts that are right for you and the situation then cover with a cologne if you think you must.
I seldom do, preferring NPA straight up but then I’m an older guy.
i don’t dilute my NPA with cologne,too much hassle and you don’t have to.instead i use the dab method like whitehall.use some potent colognes like chanel allure sport,allure sport eau extreme,armani code,HUGO,azzaro chrome,cool water etc spray over app points and you’re good to go
Bruce at Lovescent for one. The original thread has gone dead but you will find it quoted/referenced in plenty places, incl here anthough I do doubt the 50/50 claims - as most of us find it can do with some more A1 and the breakdown stink of NPA seems worse than a combo of just A1/None to me - and I’ve smelled enough of that and NPA over the years.
Dabbing/mixing - Its all up to your situation and what you prefer IMO. I find dabbing more limited in application. Dabs can work very well in the right environment - esp steamy clubs but in wider use and even a slight change in environment, dabs can have far less effective diffusion or can diffuse so fast they hit into Od range and break down a lot faster. Mixing may well lose some ultimate impact (you can correct that with dose) but will give you far better diffusion over a much wider range of conditions and a mix will go a long way to geting NPA’s propensity to turn to stink (again, a quality in common with A1) under control. Esp as at my age I do often work with dilutions above the standard 1:5
good question
I’m not really sure that the second place after the decimal point is still correct , but I try to mix as exact as possible for being able to reproduce my formula and thus my hits again.
In drugstores and medistores you can get equipments (for example ampullas) which enables you to mix very exactly.
And one drop from the A1 dropper from LS is exact 0.025ml.
Hope I could help you
I’m pretty sensitive to the depressive effects of A-1 and have never noticed it with NPA, my long-time favorite. In fact, NPA is stimulative to my moods and energy.
But OK, Bruce is an authority I trust although my memory is that the real ingredients remain a secret. Perhaps Bruce was speculating?
No, he was quite clear on the presence of A1 in several Lacroy products, although yes, he’s been shy about giving dose.
And any other/undeclared components could be offsetting the A1 - I don’t get many problems other than smell form NPA and similarly, Steve’s Cohesion has almost no negative effects on me either.
I guess that the amount of A1 in NPA is very low. LaCroy (the manufacturer of NPA) states that NPA consists 50% of androstenone and 50% of three different secret pheromones (speculated: A1, androstAnone, copulines). Supposed that each of these three secret pheromones is present in the same amount would mean that one dab (0.01ml) contains 2.4 mcg none and 2.4 mcg secrets. 1/3 of these secrets is A1. Thus one dab contains just 0.8 mcg A1. As A1 is usually used in amounts 10 to 50 mcg, even three dabs of NPA would contains a very amount of A1 (3*0.8 = 2.4mcg). Perhaps this dose is too low to cause to depressions?
On the other side these low amount of A1 could be too less being effective.
A1 is very often overused in mixes IMO - and higher doses can blunt/smother the effects of other pheros in the mix - Using A1 as a standalone, I’ve found its still surprisingly effective at doses as low as 5/6mcg and yes, I’ve still had the downers from that amount - although they do clear very quickly when washed and I got used to that dose without problems very quickly.
Even in mixes, I’ve not found that great an advantage in going over 30mcg, unless some seriously heavy doses of e- or a- none are involved.
I usually mix my A1 in the 12-15mcg per spray range, which looks similar to what you are doing with you Cool Water mix. 1-2 sprays is all that is usually needed.
I also think that the very first NPA formula may well have been just 50/50 none/A1 and that is what many of the older and seldom updated phero sites are still referencing - but that was superceeded, what 4-5 years ago, 2008/2009?
