So i was using 1x strength IS 3 sprays on my neck and one spray on wrist and 2X strength instant openness on my wrist. I smelt the stuff but I didn’t feel any different which is kinda werid anyone know why? I even sniffed the IO and i wasn’t anymore talkative. I’m pretty sure it was affecting the girl to my left who couldn’t stop talking and kept on nudging close to me while the girl on my left seemed unaffected. Anyone know why I can’t feel a difference or how I could see more definitive results. And by the way I was in this mock trial competition thing so there were hundreds of girls so I had a large spectrum to test the [pheromones](https://a314.com/). ---

If the woman next to you was more talktative, then IO worked as expected. My best advice to you is to be less mindful of the fact that you’re wearing pheromones while you have them on…ie don’t purposely sniff them and expect to be immediately affected. I think being consciously aware of the pheromones and constantly monitoring their effects can hinder their effectiveness. Be yourself and let the pheromones take their course…they work in an unconscious fashion…so keep them out of your conscious mind when you wear them ---

> [@XDragonX](#): > > haha thx sigma but then how would you know the pheromones are affecting you if you don’t pay attention? you’ll know because of the progress you would have made while wearing them. you’ll find consistency in how people behaved and reacted while wearing certain pheromones. I suspsect that a lot of newer users get so wrapped up in analyzing pheromoner reactions that it dictates how they feel and act while wearing them, and if the act of over-analyzing hinders the act of socializing, it defeats the purpose of wearing them altogether. pheromones work when you’re actively socializing with people. socialize, don’t analyze. ---

I find my self over analyzing [pheromone](https://pheromonelabs.com/) suspected behavior and it does seem to affect my night. I have to remind myselft to not think about it. This is great advice. I’ll agree the best results are the ones you get when you aren’t looking for it. If you are watching for it, you probably won’t get very many responces. I know I don’t like it when I think somebody is studying me. ---

As Sigma suggests, rather than try to catch every phero-phenomenon in real time, I find it’s best to just review results at the end of the day or night. Also, alcohol increases people’s susceptibility to pheros but clouds your awareness (and possibly memory, depending on how much you drink) of differences in behavior. One interesting thing to do is hang out with people who are drinking, but don’t drink yourself; then you can better pick up on the phero effects. Some people are just more susceptible than others. You might be someone who responds less - yet among the people you meet there will surely be those who respond more strongly. ---

I found that IShine didn’t affect me in an obvious way until I had used an entire bottle of it and then run out… I was using 5 sprays at a time, and then suddenly went without for a while and then I noticed what it was doing. ---

Sometimes you can analyze “in the moment” but it may interfere with being social. Often it is better to forget you’re wearing pheros until after the fact – then do the analysis retrospectively.
