well, im backkkk!!! hopefully to stay a while.. quick rundown of my past few… er.. MANY months AWOL FLEW through my bottle of A314, moved up here to the comfortable state of Oregon, haven’t had ANY of my pheros cause they aren’t allowed on carry-on luggage, so my fiance (now my ex) kept them safe for me. I went out to visit just a week ago, and picked up my bottles.. I’ve got a half bottle of TUTH, a complete bottle of said TUTH, a quarter bottle of IO, and, lastly, some of my own special blend of A314, IO, TUTH (which definately worked on her prior to me moving out here). And since I’m back on the dating scene (I don’t do the sit-around-and-mope thing), I wanted to find out if they would still have any potency. ( I haven’t seen these bottles since May of this year) thanks guys!! and i promise to stick around! ---

My bottles from 2008 or 2009 still work like a charm 🙂 ---

> [@mikelspencr](#): > > which ones do you have? Out of the ones you mentioned, A314 (oil) and TUTH. I have a bunch more though, and they all still work. I’ve always kept them in a cool, dark place. Not sure if that makes a difference. As for the bottle in which you have combined A314, TUTH, and IO, I’m not really sure if that would break down over time or not. ---

So long as they have been stored in a reasonably cool dark/limited light place, they will be fine. Mones themselves will keep for years, although some of the scent components are liable to be more volatile - again to temp/light more than age. 🙂 ---

As stated in [An Introduction to Mones: Names, Size, Strength, Use, Effects & Duration - #6 by SteveO](https://pheromonetalk.com/t/an-introduction-to-mones-names-size-strength-use-effects-length-of/43003/6) [Pheromones](https://pheromonelabs.com/) have a shelf life of about 3 years. Assuming that post is correct. ---

I fly into PDX (Portland) half a dozen times yearly and always pack mones in my carry-on. Put them in a clear plastic ziplock (quart size). Individual bottles can’t exceed 3 OZ and you’re TSA legal. ---

Individual bottles can’t exceed 3 OZ and you’re TSA legal. Hm. they told me that since they didn’t know how to classify them, I had to leave em??? Well, they’re here now, so again.. ill run with em. I’m going to buy brand new for right now though… maybe incorporate the older ones to run em out.
