[My first little bottles](https://pheromonetalk.com/t/hello-from-paris/8503) arrived yesterday.

First impression : no leak, but there was a strong scent of neroli in DHL bag. I felt almost immediately a strong headache. I suffer from migraine, but this wasn’t migraine at all, just bad old headache. Fortunately it didn’t last for long.

I couldn’t smell nothing but the neroli scent. Is there something else in these bottles ? (remember, I’m skeptical… 🙄 )

First test of the day : it’s important in my job — mostly public policy marketing and political lobbying — to take a step back when having this kind of bright idea I’ve had two days ago, and evaluate it without excitement. So I’ve planned a walk alone in the woods (well, woods surrounded by urban aeras near Paris, but still woods). Why not one single spray of this Instant jerk to test self effects ?  
I’ve noticed :

- I stood more upright. (I can’t count the number of times I’ve been told “stand up right” when I was a child and I still have to make an effort sometimes, when I’m tired or in these cold rainy weeks of the year here.)
- I don’t feel very safe with several big dogs around. They don’t scary me truly, but i’m not at ease with them. I’ve passed two big pitbulls, the master was far away, and they were around me for perhaps five minutes. I thought : “hey, they’re just dogs, and there are only two of them”. I wasn’t worried at all, which is unusal for me with two big dogs around.
- I generally don’t care much about what random people around me think or tell, and i’m basically an individualist. Call it libertarian or ‘don’t tread on me’ personnality. This was slightly enhanced, but it remains unclear for me if due to Instant jerk or if it was just my mood of the day.

At least alone in the forest, I liked this single spray of [Instant Jerk](https://a314.com/product/instant-jerk/).

Shower.

In the evening, I went out to a meeting at a friend’s place. He wants to create and launch an online radio dealing with cultural, political and financial matters, and this evening took place the first meeting for all the people involved. I couldn’t resist to test several bottles : 1 spray of ammo (chest, 2-go), 2 of instant shine (chest, 2-go), 1 of instant openness (wrist, 2-go) one of instant honesty (the other wrist, 2-go). Covered with Chanel’s Pour Monsieur.

There were about 30 people, I’ve met some of them previously. After a speach explaining the project, people have split into small groups. I’ve noticed :  
— A lot of laughs with a friend (who’s gay btw) I haven’t met for some weeks. I think some other people still wonder why we’re madly laughing about a satirical website we made together a few weeks ago. It’s funny, yes, but we were like young imps.  
— Later, I suddenly realized that I was in a room, being on a chair, and in front of me on the sofa a row of three women I’ve never met before, two of them involved in the radio public relations and the other certainly a futur columnist. We were alone in the room and they were listening to me explaining some boring technical difficulty we’re experiencing with podcasts ; strong eye contacts, smiles, gazes. Wow. The situation wasn’t weird in itself : we had to talk, but certainly not this long, not alone with them in that room, and not with the connection being so intense for no reason.  
— Several people, mostly women, asked me if they can use with me the familiar french pronoun “tu” instead of more formal “vous”. It’s not that surprising, but six times the same evening in a rather formal environment, it’s unusual.  
— I’ve been ignored by two men I knew a little.

So, yes, there’s certainly something else than neroli scent in these little bottles. 🙂 It apparently works, not dramatically but seems to work.

Miossens,

Yes it works. Subtle at times and sometimes no so subtle. Go get em! Have fun. Read and experiment. Trust me I used to be a major league skeptic when it came to [pheromones](https://a314.com/)…BUT I AM NOT ANY MORE!!! Best of luck to you. 🆒

This morning : two sprays of [Instant Female Magic](https://a314.com/product/instant-female-magic/).

Self effects : none.  
Effects on others : nada.

But I haven’t any woman around suffering of PMS syndrom…

I continue my testings after my first order. 🙂

This week, I’ve been testing [Instant Openness](https://a314.com/product/instant-openness/) for six days, increasing the number of sprays from one the first day to six the last day.

Results: hum… not a lot. Perhaps an increase of ioi, and an asian waitress in a chinese restaurant being unusually chatty this noon. Nothing dramatic, and I think Instant Openness will not be very useful for me.

Coming soon: I wonder if I can turn up the heat with or have instant honesty from an ex-gf I have to meet these coming days. 🙄
