I have a question for the phero gurus. I am planning on making a version of SteveO’s **ICM 0.25.1b** I’ve tested all the individual components separately and feel ready to take the plunge into making my first composite.

My question is about the scent. I want to make it [Akuto](https://a314.com/product-category/scented/akuto/) scented but if I get everything at 6% scent strength, would the final scent be too overpowering? I want to be able to use at 2-3 sprays without knocking people over with the strength of the scent. Any suggestions from the phero gurus?

Thanks in advance!

I’ve composited mixes with 6% neroli and it wasn’t a neroli bomb when I sprayed.

I think you’ll be fine. The final volume of akuto per spray will still be 6%… I believe.

Thanks for the reply! I figured that it ‘should’ still be alright but I figured I’d ask the people here with more experience. Thanks again!
