Question about pheros

I had a question, but I am not sure how to phrase it. Here goes…

If you are around other people while using pheros, how do people discern who is actually wearing the pheros?

Example if I don’t make sense: A man and his friend walk into a club. Man A is wearing pheros and Man B is not. Some women nearby realize the pheros and approach them both. Will the women be able to tell who is actually wearing the pheros?

pheromones effect the subconscious mind by sending signals about ourselves to others. Its built in for us to be able to pinpoint where that message is coming from. Its part of the neuro sensory processing. Sometimes it happens instantly and sometimes it takes a few minutes but it happens.

Our sense of smell works much like our other senses.

Suppose you hear a scream, you can automatically pinpoint where it is coming from if the signal keeps coming

Suppose you see a flash of light, again if it reoccurs you can pin point where its coming from without giving it much thought.

Its something we have been doing since birth and while we dont really consciously think about it we automatically do it.

There is one difference with synthetic pheromones though. If your acting totally incongruent to that signal your sending people may not pick up on it. Or the subconscious rules you out as the source of the signal and moves on.

Congruency helps for people to pinpoint better.

So say your wearing A314 which is a Alpha male mix. You need to take the lead like a Alpha would do.

Or you wear Instant Openness but look totally unapproachable and unfriendly. It just doesn’t match so they may have the urge to speak to you and be friendly but there other senses like sight kick in and tell them “cant be coming from him he looks mean”

Remember its not a conscious thought, you just automatically react.

Thanks for the assistance. Knowledge is power! :smiley:

Great information. Tisha you always seem to be giving the answers I am looking for. Basically if you are wearing them seem normal and involved. Do not try to think everything will come your way while wearing them. For some people it does they seem to be magnets. People are social and that is what they enjoy.

Hi, I think I did about the first scientific research on pheromones way back in 1975 - I sprayed androstenone on a dentist’s waiting room chair and found that women were attracted to the seat and men repelled (1) My notion was that women would unconsciously be attracted to a main component of male sweat through prior positive association. It was important that the levels used were below awareness as conscious would unpredictable affect response. Hughes et al. (4) had shown that smells could arouse/affect the limbic system without awareness of the smells - it was this crucial finding that got me personal research funding by the UK government to look for evidence of human pheromones in 1973.

My assumption was that this pheromone effect would be weak and the effects of perfume on women’s mood and attitude would be greater than andstorenone - and later research (3) proved this to be the case. I’m not aware of any evidence that androstenone has any greater effect than perfume.

Androstenone is the result of bacterial action on androstanedione - in contrast to androstenone, this steroid has been shown to have very interesting physiological and psychological effects on humans.
