So, on a whim, and since I had virtually no information on this MX to run with, I decided to do a megadose of MX231 for work today. I wore 8 sprays, randomly placed about my torso and head. Got some odd results.
On the way to work, no one would sit anywhere near me. The smell had had 20 minutes to dry in by this point, but nonetheless, the bus was crowded, and I still had a 2 seat radius in any direction vacant for me. So I get off the bus, strap on my blades, and start on my way to work through the christian college. I had several guys look at me like I was hitting on their girlfriend, or ran over their cats, and were ready to beat me to a pulp. Defenitely reminiscent of a -none OD. Ladies I passed by quickly gave me more double takes than usual. (Let’s face it. I’m not a bad looking guy, so I do get them from time to time, ya know!) I have a feeling that if I were to have stopped to talk to them that they may have gotten a -none OD type of reaction, too. But the fast pass by gave them just enough of me to interest them for a second or two.
So I get to work, and of course I’m sweating buckets as usual… I’m out back of the hotel changing out of my blades, when one of our catering managers passes by me once… twice… stops on the third time, touches my arm, and mentions how fantastically I smell. This particular manager is older, post menopausal, and has never given me the time of day prior to this instance.
We have several guys working on our roof right now, and they’re normally a very brash bunch, and seem to think that their shit don’t stink, if ya know the type. They were very respectful towards me today, and one guy who was carrying a bucket of hot tar actually stopped and truned back to open the door for me, even though I wasn’t carrying anything, and then he thanked me once I was through, and he went on his way from there!
No change noticed in usual customer interaction, or from close co-workers. Will update if anything else happens.
NOTE: I’m thinking that this is definitely a -none based mix. Can’t place my finger on just what else is in here, although I’m thinking TAA or maybe alpha-nols? Further testing in a more social environment is definitely necessary.
