The two bottles in the package being identical label-wise I’ve no idea how to discern one from the other. Although on the order it says {“[Instant Shine](https://a314.com/product/shine/)” Feel Good Pheromone For Men Extendo Version 2.0 #232} & on the invoice it says {MX288/MX289). Anyway I’ve tested this for about a month now, daily, by itself, and with other pheromones. Normal dosage 1 to 4 sprays.

1st and most obvious observation  
People seemed to be drawn to me in a really relaxed way unlike the emphatic social attraction I’ve experienced with Instant Shine 4x at 4 sprays. I’m naturally aggressive and intimidating, but I’m also fun/funny to people I know and those who break the 3 to 5 minute barrier talking to me. Definitely increased the length of casual coversation about 5 to 10 minutes longer.

2nd observation  
It seems to extend the life of the other pheromones beneath it when applied as a finishing layer. I cannot count this as a plus or a minus due to the fact it seemed to blunt the immediate effects of the other pheromones.

But so far, those are the only two noticeable effects with around 3 weeks of testing of the first bottle. I’m almost out and will begin testing the second bottle soon. I think the Extendo version would be better suited for me in situations where I have to be in the vicinity of a group for long periods of time. In retail the wham-bam-thankyou-ma’am effects of Instant Shine 4x are much more favorable due to the minimal time involved with each person.

P.S. - Does anyone else get rashes from androstenone applied around the neck area? Or experience increased sensitivity to skin irritants?

Good post! You can also write a little about the difference between 2.0 and 2.1. This would be very helpful since androtics might choose the better one out of the two for a future ishine product, and all feedbacks counts 🙂
