These notes reflect approximately 2.5 weeks of observations on the effects of p75 worn at 2.5mcgs and 5.0mcgs in 6% neroli scent.
My primary interest in this putative was to experience the self effects that others have noted whilst wearing p75. I’ve been using mones on and off for approximately 6 years and no product has any positive effect on myself anymore for more than a few wearings. I do get lethargy, apathy and melancholy from androstadienone, and I’ve noticed frequent urination from high none worn over a length of time, but these are hardly desirable.
2.5mcgs
The first time I wore p75 I got the god-like self affects that others have noticed. It was not so much the pleasant and happy self confidence that IS or TAA gives, nor the unshakeable belief in oneself and one’s abilities engendered by A314*, nor the aggressive dominance of none, but more like the dispassionate aloofness that a god might feel on encountering an lower species of life form like a puny mortal. I felt like my aura had expanded ten feet and anything that entered this space was there because I, in my infinite mercy, allowed it to be there.
Which is rather nice, especially if one has any degree of social anxiety. Whereas I might, in the past, have tensed up if someone invaded my personal space, or moved out of the way if someone walked towards me, I knew that at some fundamental level that no harm could come to me and people would move out of my way: I was Mount Olympus and immortal, they were passing clouds and would soon be gone and forgotten. In short, people moved out of my way because I moved at a pace set by myself while they were being compelled by forces beyond their control to rush around like blind, crazy animals.
P75 is powerful.
Sadly, the mental effect lessened considerably a few days into wearing p75. Whilst the aloofness was still present, the sense of being present in my own skin and power, my mantle of divinity disappeared. I was still fearless, but it was only because of a lack of fear rather than because I was filled with might and power.
5.0mcgs
I upped the dose to two sprays and found that it had a pretty different effect to my initial experiences of p75 at 2.5mcgs. I was expecting the sense of power to return but it only seemed to intensify my lack of fear which manifested in a complete lack of concern for what others might be thinking or feeling. I felt like I’d accessed some saurian level of consciousness that lay in our distant past. I was no longer a god, I was a lizard basking in the suns rays on a rock, completely unconcerned with nearby creatures because they were not close enough or large enough to be a threat.
My sense of social anxiety was non-existent, but it was because I was less than I am not because something had been added to me to make me confident. The part of me that worried about what others might be thinking was negated somehow.
I confess, I found this freedom from my very human concern for others liberating, but I found that it has its downsides. When I’m wearing p75 I do not care how my words or actions might affect others because I am Logic and emotions are such meaningless, trifling things. I answered questions with complete honesty. One might think that this is a good thing, but little white lies make the world go round smoothly and dissembling often keeps the lid on Pandora’s box from exploding.
Furthermore, honesty is death in a professional setting. I got into several arguments at work, including one spectacular alteraction (I mean this literally ? the whole floor stopped what they were doing and watched) with a female manager. After she stopped shouting at the top of her lungs, she burst into tears and ran out of the office. I carried on with what I was doing completely unmoved by her gratuitous display because I knew she was Wrong and would come round to my way of thinking if she considered things rationally.
This degree of cold reasoning is not much better in a personal setting. I somehow managed to convince a significant other that I did not love her and did not care about her because I lacked any ability to listen (by which she meant empathise or show sympathy). I could not figure out what she was talking about because I was listening and answering her questions, but with the coldness of a sociopath or an incarnation of Spock. This was by far the worst side effect of p75, the lack of ability to relate on a human/emotional level, and it caused a great deal of upset and pain for one SO.
I can see p75 might have a place when one requires freedom from emotion and cold reason, but I do not recommend it for daily wear with others you care about. Wear it when cold approaching, when seducing someone, when you want to cause negative emotions in someone to gain the upper hand, but if you end up in a relationship with them, put the p75 away.
