Hi all, I introduced myself a few days ago, as a new member to the world of Pheromones. A friend of mine who lives by products like [Instant Shine](https://a314.com/product/shine/) assured me it would be nothing but a success. I purchased IS and A314 version B, but have only used IS as of now. On day 1, I sprayed 3 sprays…one in the air to test it, one on my forearm (rubbed that in then behind my ears), and then another for good measure. Nothing happened, I didn’t feel different, and nobody around me acted any different. On day 2 (today), I thought maybe I OD’d with too many sprays, so I did only one spray. Still absolutely no effect. I even walked through a supermarket to see if anyone noticed me, nothing. I am in NYC where people normally just walk by you, could that be a reason? Or maybe does it just not work for some people? I’m very disappointed, I was looking forward to this for a while! Thanks for any help in advance. ---

Are you a naturally grumpy bastard? 😛 🙂 More seriously, yes some people are not as affected by pheros as others and it may be that you are not affected bt IS, or that a higher dose may be needed - OD is not really an issue with the socials IS, IO & IH, you can use fairly high doses without too much bother - other than feeling a bit giddy then temporarilly burned out and needing a rest after some hours. TBH, 2 sprays is pretty much the minimum I’d use in conjunction with other pheros in order to steer things in a fun/happy direction. If I’m using IS on its own, I’ll usually use at least 2 or 3 sprays 2x IS in order to get happy effects from those around me. Even then, there will still be some who won’t respond - either because they are biologically non responsive to pheros or because personality/environmental factors mitigate against them. Pheros won’t change a basic unhappy nature in anyone so disposed. ---

Might try wearing a fair bit of the IS, including a spray to the front neck, and rubbing some on the upper lip under the nose, a mere 2-3 sprays really shouldnt OD at all, so feel to spray with a bit more to test for self effects ---

Yeah it would throw one on the neck so that you get a good wiff all day. 🙂
