from their recent orders of [pheromones](https://pheromonelabs.com/shop/)?

I cant quite explain the smell, it’s almost like a body smell. My bottle of IFM (non scented) and some other custom products I bought, also smell the same. I remember reading about some new organic alky? perhaps this is it? or perhaps Im smelling this ‘odor’ because I usually get scented products but these came non-scented.

Un\*fragranced \*is different than unscented. Most pheromones have quite a a smell. You can’t get around that, unless you include no pheromones. (Sadly, that’s exactly what some brands do.)

The key pheromone in [Instant Female Magic](https://a314.com/product/instant-female-magic/) smells _extremely_ human. Most of our products, without a “fragrance mask”, smell human.

[Instant Female Magic](https://a314.com/product/instant-female-magic/) (dienone) smells particularly musky to me…it isn’t BO like, like androstenone, which for some reason I can now smell. IFM to me has always had a very ‘heavy’ or ‘thick’ note to it…it doesn’t necessarily smell bad…but its noticable. Jasmine nails it on the head when she says it smells ‘human’.

_hears in his head Rob Zombie’s "More human than human_

IFM smells like hay to me, mainly. Androstenone, now that smells human…

[Instant Shine](https://a314.com/product/shine/) smells like vomit to me. Still works though. I don’t mind.

Catlord17- do you have the “unscented” IFM or the version with Clary Sage?

ok. well my customs arent whats smelling (i wore them on their own over the weekend) its the IFM, it sorta smells like wine. its not bad, but its ‘fume like’

thats a relief, altho i think i need to exchange it for clary, i remember i had this same issue last summer, I just forgot to ask for the scented version…again.

well all the instant products smell like onions or they have a light orangey but still repulsive odor. That’s what I smell and I’ve received comments similar to that

YIKES!!!

Good thing I ordered the [Instant Female Magic](https://a314.com/product/instant-female-magic/) for personal at home use. I doubt a man wearing onion cologn would get me very relaxed. Hopefully my dog won’t mind. Or try to hump me 😮 with all the crazy potions I just ordered 😕

the instant line is dissolved with neroli essential that help mask the smell of the pheromones, and help with diffusion. Its real citrusy. I can still pick up the scent of the dienone if IFM though, despite the neroli fragrance.

figured out how to get rid of the smell. I added PMX212 (the coconut smelling one) to the bottle. I just poured the whole travel bottle into the [Instant Female Magic](https://a314.com/product/instant-female-magic/). it toned down the coconut smell and actually turned it into something more masculine. WEIRD! At the same eliminating the Instant Female Magic wine smell. Not sure what how it works, but the IFM absorbed the ultra sweet coconut fragrance.

Used 4 sprays today, and 2 sprays of -none

the current girl im dating is el salvadorian/ mexican. shes 20, petite and probably the prettiest girl ive been with or at least in the top 3.

she loved this mix. she saw me put it on, then she said, “who are you trying to impress with your scent?” {she’s a bit cocky}

later at the movies she kept kissing me,and saying “i love you” (im a little worried she uses the term so loosly, eh, shes young) she was ultra friendly, she usually ‘tries’ to act like a spoiled brat to me, but this time she was very friendly and a bit more aggressive when it came to affection. this was interesting because im noticing younger girls get more aggressive with IFM than with a much stronger mixes like the akuto series (which late 20’s love). I did use very little -none this time because we havent done anything in awhile (im holding out lol) I got jumped when we got home tho.
