Okay. I like to dress a little rock n’ roll. Skulls, spikes, all combined with rather refined tailored suits. Weird combo, but it works for me…
Anyhoo, I tend to wear alot of bracers, gauntlet style leather bands on my wrists and forearms. Some have spikes, some don’t, etc.
I have yet to purchase my products, but as a n00b, I am aiming for A314 and AMMO.
I am curious as to if it would make any sense to apply any of these products to my bands and, if so, how often should I “refresh” these items? I understand that they can really build up in clothing and wearables and I don’t want to over do it.
So, thoughts?
Thank you all! I am asking a ton of questions and reading so much and everyone here is incredibly kind! Hope that I can return the favor to the n00bs when I actually have experience!
the pheromones need heat to disperse into the air. places like neck, forearm wrist hair ect work well. Clothing (and leather wristbands) disperse the pheromones very poorly and I would not recommend it.
I get buildup when wearing my cheekless leather lederhosen. Lotta buildup in fuzzy handcuffs too!!!
Seriously though, with my experience w/ riding leathers, funk can buildup, especially in unfinished types. I imagine your bracelets are finished on the outside and “raw” on the part that touches your skin. I’m gonna guess mones, especially none, will blend to the leather and sweat and stink. Once you get the stench it’s hard to get out. As for what MCO said, some members apply mones to the hair and clothes and report success. I stay on the safe side though and apply to skin.
I actually get excellent results with hair and clothing apps, although I normally use basecoat a of A314 and SOE on skin. Realize I live in the tropics so it’s friggen hot 'n humid everyday, so mones on your shirt dissipate just fine, especially since you tend to sweat through your clothing after a 5 minute walk. At the end of the day you shirt weighs 10 lbs and is encrusted with salt…
Lots of us have no choice but to apply to hair and clothing as many of the scented products cause skin irritation. AD A314 actually gives me a bleeding rash! Luckily the scent package in LS A314 is okay for my skin. I can’t put anything with neroli on my chest or neck due to irritation. Unscented products are fine so I do a lot of homebrewing with chemset mones.
The main problem during summer months is we sweat too much and mones applied to skin mingle with skin bacteria and sweat, making for a funky stink. I’d recommend not applying to your sweaty parts like behind the ears, pits, crotch, back of neck, etc. Drier areas like forearms and back of hands are ideal.
Personally I wouldn’t apply mones to anything your can’t easily wash. I got some NPA on a leather jacket a couple years back and it still smells like it. Must be why my GF keeps trying to hump it…
Ah, I live in the tropics as well! Florida during this time of year is essentially a steam bath all day long.
Thanks for the advice, it sounds like your experience with humidity and heat are applicable to my situation. I will make sure to pay attention to your posts.
hey now, i said hair is an excellent dispersal method. Actually- the one MHarris, the creator of SmartMones, recommends before any other application point. I just said clothes were bad disperses. Not to say it doesnt work. Just doen’t work as well. But if Gegogi says they disperse in hot climates, and you live in a hot climate, try it. Only way to truly find out!
Lotta buildup in fuzzy handcuffs too!!!
