**What is MX403?**

**MX403** is not your standard every day mix - it’s a mix with a VERY special purpose.

\*\*Fragrance:\*\*Undisclosed  
**Effects:** Social

**Status** : **Currently In Production**

**Quote:**

_Quote from original Release Thread [June 30th, 2011]:  
We’ve created this concept to help you hone your social awareness skills. The test is very simple. We have created this MX with TWO of our standard formulas and its up to YOU to guess which ones._

**How to Test:**

- Spray like you would your usual cologne or perfume, on your usual pulse points.

- This mix has been calibrated to work best at a two spray dosage. Start there but try everything.

- We’re seeking to understand how the diffusion component works with the pheromonal molecule. At least once test with your usual cologne, so we can see how the diffusion technology we are testing works with cologne.

- Spray. Let dry. Sniff. Does the smell remind you of anything? What do you notice yourself feeling?

**What to Report:**

We’re collecting data on a few parameters, which I’ll explain here.

**Strength** - How strong did you feel the effects? On yourself? On others? Did it hit you over the head, or was it more subtle?

**Length of Effects** - When did you notice the onset of effects? When did you notice the outset? When did it peak? When did it wane?

**Tenacity** - Tenacity refers to ?staying power?, or the aggressiveness of the cologne. Does it seem to “attack” people around you, or is it more of a “slow burner”? Does it seem like you can point your fume in one direction or another?

**Effectiveness & Consistency** - How effective is this mix on a scale of 1-10 (1 bad, 10 killer)? Have its effects been consistent over time?

**Diffusion/Sillage** - Sillage refers to your ?vapor trail?. Think of it like the wake of a ship. How many feet/meters is your vapor trail? Do people seem to follow your silage?

**Other weird questions that help clarify:**

If it were music, what would it sound like?  
If it had a texture, what would it feel like?  
If it were edible or drinkable, what would it taste like?  
What celebrity or public figure is it most like?

**NEW!** The [Instant Gentleman](https://a314.com/product/gentleman/) mix pack with THREE variants that we are testing! They are Neroli scented MX400, MX401, and MX402.

The game plan here is that once we figure out what the most effective and efficient mixes is in the pack we will release it as another MX to test on its own as a possible re-formatting of Instant Gentleman!

**Get it here:**

I should mention that the IG Test Pack + MX403 deal for Reporting Users is only valid for a limited time and while supplies last - since MX403 as well as the test pack are a pretty good deal already and I’m pretty much “giving away the farm” on this one. lol

Also keep in mind THIS IS INSTANT GENTLEMAN - WITH _ONE_ CHANGE IN EACH OF THESE MXs.

I finally got around to testing MX403. I decided that a self test was in order first.

One spray.

I feel the effects almost immediately. I get a kind of feeling that I want to blurt something out. My guess at the first component is Instant Honesty.

I also have this feeling that I want to chat so my guess at the second component is [Instant Openness](https://a314.com/product/instant-openness/).

I hope there is a prize or reward if I’m right.

Just for the hell of it I put on MX403 today. I haven’t read anything on it and I’ve never used it. I’ve just been sitting here today.. and I’m not the best gage for determining if none is in something. I can’t smell so I don’t think I pick up the full spectrum of [pheromones](https://a314.com/shop/)… But when I do its amazing that I can!

My initial thoughts with 2x sprays is that I’m in a positive mood, quite candid and outspoken, slight bit of confidence but the positive mood could do that. Clarity of thought and introspection.

Best guess is IS and IH, but maybe I’ll finish the bottle and come back to that…

Be funny if its a placebo and I can’t smell so I’m just describing how I’m feeling lol.🙄

MX403 - Let’s get real.

Recently, I became intrigued with the MX403. I got this because I liked what it said about it. It’s a mix of two of the Instant lines, and it was designed for a very specific purpose.

Well after trying it, I have to believe that it was creating very in-depth, personal and philosophical conversations with people I know. I’d never gotten so deep with some of my friends as when I was using MX403. I was spraying this on my throat, so that I could feel its effects as well. The result, after using it three nights in a row with different friends, some in group setting, most one on one, was that it was opening up their thoughts, their perceptions, and allowing me to express myself to them openly, and completely honestly. They in-turn, would reply in just as open and honest ways.

I have to conclude that this product is openness and honesty together. I believe its purpose is to facilitate deep and meaningful conversation. That’s what it did for me. Having just lost my father, and having the stresses of being the only one to tend to his estate, I’ve been under a lot of pressure and needed a way to talk to my friends about this on a level more than just a superficial one. This MX403 seems to have made that happen for me, so its ‘very specific purpose’ was in my case, very very needed.

I have observed very significant muting of A314 effects with MX403, which is suggestive of alphanol (I don’t think I’ve seen the same from betanol) IO has 70/30 alpha/beta as a base (with steering); IH has a 70/30 alpha/beta base; CTTM(2?)has a base of 50/50 alpha/beta – which may show the impact of steering elements: I’ve read that IO/IH and CTTM have essentially the same base component mix.

I may well wrong, but my 6-week test series has changed my model of which pheros/mixes “go together”. I’m getting more striking results by not using alphanol- and rone-heavy mixes together. I’ve long believed that simpler is better (esp with consumer/MX mixes), and this summer seemed to confirm that.

I have some betanol on order to more specifically test its effects on A314 without alphanol. I also think it may make MX403 a winner for me (I have reason to suspect that my natural sig has always been strong in alphanol, so betanol may help balance my personal mixes).

From prior experience, I’m hoping that the steering in the two ‘consumer Instants’ that reportedly make up MX403 will knock it out of the park vs straight alpha+beta
