Just received a To go bottle of TUTH and I must say, it smells…Awesome! I didn’t know what to expect because some people think it smells like cat piss 😕 Anyway, I can’t wait to test it on my nights out

Also, today I had a doctor’s appointment. 3 Shots of IG, one to the back of the neck, the other 2 on either side, plus 2 sprays of 2X instant shine and 2 sprays of instant openness.

As the nurse was taking my blood pressure, she leaned in to my personal space for quite a while 😃 So I guess my mones were doing their thing.

So far so good with my mones, but IS does “crash”. After an hour I can’t smell it as strongly as I do IG, IO or even AMMO

Thanks AD!

Glad to hear TUTH doesn’t have a cat piss odor! 😉 I think your combo for a doctor’s visit was superb.

Though you may not ‘smell’ the [Neroli](https://a314.com/product-category/scented/androtics-neroli/) in IShine, it is @ 6% of cologne strength, it could be that you’re accustomed to it. It usually will still work for a few hours after application.

Thanks Alpha, one question though, I was thinking about ordering AMMO in [Akuto](https://a314.com/product-category/scented/akuto/) or IG in Akuto, just can’t make up my mind, any advice? Is Akuto good for day or nighttime use?

Thanks

That is not the IS “crash” - It is quite the normal thing for the [Neroli](https://a314.com/product-category/scented/androtics-neroli/) scent in IS (and other instants) to settle to a barely perceptible level after half an hour or so. This is why it sits so well with cover scents/other products etc The crash is when you suddenly and inexplicably feel tired/drained/emotionally flat after wearing IS for a few hours and usually at higher doses/with repeated topups. Not everyone gets it though.

If you are still smelling other Instants after that time, it is probably more of an indication that you are more sensitive to their component pheros. Same with TUTH - Some people get the cat-piss smell, others not and if you/they are sensitive to the scent of none that way, there is very little that is going to be able to cover it.

Also remember that although they use the same scent, all the Instants and TUTH do smell slightly different because of the influence of their component pheros. Ammo has its own much stronger scent though.

I use Ammo in Akuto instead of FF21, this is because I am slightly sensitive - skin irritation/headaches to FF21 and FF22 is no longer available.

Akuto at cologne strength is an excellent scent but TBH, it is more suited to night time and is not so good a diffuser as FF21. I am absolutely loving the [Summer Ammo](https://a314.com/product/ammo/) scent as a daytime product though - and the mellower feel of that mix is similarly great during for daywear. 🙂

I’ll also say that the custom scented products I use in a primary role are all the none-based, wheras the likes of IG, IH, putatives are used in a secondary/steering role that often gives them a much wider range of doses. So I keep these in their native scents - Neroli or 6% Akuto, so I can make more diverse use of them.

Thanks for the tip on IS, and i’ll take your advice on AMMO in Akuto
