Roni's Phero ride.

So its been more than 2 weeks since I received my first order (IHx2, IO, IG, TUTH-tg-gift) and then a 2nd one a weeks ago (A314, IS-tg, CTTM2-tg, Spaceland-tg-gift). Needless to say I feel like a kid with a bagful of candy right after Halloween, just dying to try every single one of them :smiley:

Here are some of my observations on the hits and self-effects, mainly things that I found were obviously different than normal.

Background: 38 years old average Asian male; non-clubbing; workaholic, hold position of power at work; generally introvert outside of work

Goal: Getting to/past the “seduction” phase with a couple of nice Asian ladies (aka targets) at work (or outside of work). Become more outgoing in general, need to force myself to go out more for achieving this.

Application (applied 10am):
1 x IH on the wrist
1 x IO at the back on the neck
1 x IO on hair

Location: Lunch (11:30am) in the cafeteria with the targets and couple other guys (3 M, 2 F).

Self Effects:
This stuff was extremely potent for me, couldn’t stop yapping :smiley: and it was all random stuff too, switching wildly from work related topics, suddenly to talking about how funny “manswers” episode was, to the tricks we played on teachers in HS. I usually talk a lot, but it is mostly work related topics and have a very strong control of what I am speaking; this was soooooo unlike me. Need to be very very careful with this combo.

Effects on others:
Very clearly there was much more chatter than what I have usually seen in the same setting (we have lunch almost 3 times/wk). People were talking non-stop, random topics, even some stuff regarding family issues, bank balance revelation were coming up with ease.

Repeated the same combo for 3 days and had similar observation, but no chance of isolated contacts with the targets.


Application (9:00am after workout):
1 x IH on the wrist
1 x IG behind each ear (total 2 sprays)

Location: Office meetings (10:00am). Lunch (same group)

Self Effects: Nothing out of the ordinary. Felt more serious/thoughtful in general.

Effects on others: Totally convinced that folks were much more focussed when I spoke. There are a couple of senior engineers who have a tendency to always disagree; they were quite mellow today. I normally stay with technical facts during discussions, but surprisingly I digressed on a few occasions and explained how the new product will be perceived by mgmt/market, how it will get us more funding etc. etc., things I usually don’t ever say in mtgs (possible self effect, weakening of self control).

Lunch was more subdued than the previous occasions; more serious, relaxed. The “targets” seemed to be listening, but felt like their mind was pre-occupied, maybe fantasizing about me :wink:

Wore this combo for 3 days, consciously tried to refrain from talking too much, need to practice more or I’ll end up in trouble.

Decided to go against the repeated forum advice for NOT using TUTH at work. Guess my general tendency to take risk, in technical, work related issues, took over; but I liked the results :wink:

Application:
1 x TUTH split b/w the wrists
1 x IO on hair

Location: Office only; dedicated day for debugging SW with one of the target.

Self Effects: None observed

Effects on others: Went to her office, closed 8’x8’ room, at 9:30am, sat next to her (2ft max distance), looking at the same monitor, me typing. Started discussing the issues and as usual my geek personality took over. She contributed her opinion, then after about 15mins, while we were deeeeeep in technical stuff, she goes soft and quiet, responses are very brief. All this time I was looking at the screen just bending my head a bit when she spoke, but then I turned my head to face her and saw her looking at me, in a different way :wink: not something I had seen before, the eyes seemed drunk. Face definitely had a flushing redness to it. Then all of a sudden, she crossed her legs and turned away to look at the monitor, took a deep breath. To me this was a completely out-of-her-character behavior and I take it as a big hit, will surely keep TUTH in the mix.

A314 is here, can’t wait :smiley:. Decided to be conservative and follow the “correct” pheromone testing procedure for A314, one phero at a time.

Application:
1 x A314 behind each ear (2 drops total)

Location: Office. Lunch with usual group, going out to an Indian place.

Self Effects: Much elevated level of confidence. Felt like the whole world is under me.

Effects on others: Had a morning mtg with the lab technicians to assess the readiness for new product and take a lab tour. These folks are a bunch of old timers, skillful though, but very averse to any kind of authority; I have to go out of my way to be nice to them or they can easily screw up schedules). During the meeting today, they were super co-operative WOW, listening intently and even making notes; no demands for more resources to meet the aggressive schedule - am I in wonderland or what
Went for the lab tour which I have seen a few times already, but they are showing me around as if I am a visiting dignitary or a royalty. Me HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY, A314 rocks, I can tame a tiger with my bare hands!

Lunch was also a blast. This is a pretty good restaurant, serving a massive buffet during lunch; always very crowded with people for all the technology companies nearby. Looked at the buffet, but they didn’t have my favorites (Tika Masala and Okra) there; the manager who seated us was standing right next to me stirring the food. Just for the sake of it, I asked him if they can make an item from the regular menu, knowing pretty well that they won’t (none of these buffet places do it during lunch hr rush). To my surprise, he politely says, “let me check with the chef sir”, then he comes back and tells me they can do it for me. Another WOW.

I also noticed that some of he other engineers I hang out with were a bit reserved, not joking or forthcoming as before. Not sure if 2 drops were too much, given that I am already pretty aggressive at work.


Reduced the A314 application to just 1 drop and added IG. Will use 2 xA314 for meetings with other teams - people I haven’t met before.

1xIG behind 1 ear and 1xA314 behind the other has been ok. Added 1xIO spray on the hair as well. Fellow engineers seem to be their same old selves now. Unfortunately not any significant contact with the targets; everyone is pretty busy to complete things before the holidays.


Decided to try TUTH again.

Application (10:30am):
1 x TUTH split b/w the wrists; had trouble with the tg spray, ended up more like 1.5 sprays.
1 x A314 behind the ear
1 x IO at the back of the neck

Location: Office. Lunch (just myself and one of the technician)

Self Effects: None observed. Had been in phone mtgs since morning, confined to my office.

Effects on others: One of the lab techs had been working really hard and going above and beyond his duty. Decided to take him out for lunch; went nearby to a popular mexican food joint; again a crowded place. We order and get a table, discussing mostly work; I thank him for the hard work, he feeling very humbled, started talking about his family. Very open talk, about how he doesn’t like the guy his daughter is dating etc etc. While we are eating 2 females walk in and get the table across from us, ~5ft away, 45 degree angle. One of them is white and a bit older, the other, a voluptuous and fairly attractive mexican or philipino, early 30s I’d say; seems single I don’t see any rings. We did make eye contact a couple of times, she was trying to see what came on our plate. Surely some signals, did see her fidgeting with the hair, removed her hair clip from perfectly tidy hair and let them loose, combing with the fingers; looks more like trying to get attention. Caught her looking at at me at least 2 times; and then the same sudden crossing of legs I saw with the target.

I definitely like TUTH in the mix, the responses are much more visible.

Have started using CTTM2 and IS. Still no opportunity to be alone with the targets. But I can clearly say that with IS, I do feel a bit elevated; not exactly as A314, but more carefree and I seem to smile a lot too.

Application:
1 x A314 behind the ear
2 x CTTM2 on the adams apple
1 x IS split b/w the wrists
1 x IO on the hair

The above mix is working pretty fine. Some very senior engineers and even my heavily Alpha manager have been quite open and relaxed, even including me in some of the high level discussions which, IMO, I don’t need to be in.


Still using the above mix.

Got a call from one of the targets (2nd one) late in the afternoon to get help on an issue. I could just tell her whats wrong on the phone, but why loose this golden chance :wink:

I quickly put a spray of TUTH at the back of my neck, and 1xIS on my wrists, she is to meet me in 1/2 hr.

We are in my office this time, she’s sitting next to me, but slightly behind; both looking at my monitor; I am checking her code and asking some non-essential questions. Luckily I use the geek settings to display yellow/green text on a black background on a 24" monitor; I can see her reflection on the screen - and lone-behold I can clearly see her looking at me as if checking me out. I asked her a question and she has to bend closer to the screen, getting a nose-full of TUTH and she goes “you have started wearing a different cologne, its pretty good”. I said, “ya I picked up a sample at Macy’s over the weekend shopping trip, some GUCCI fragrance” lame lame lame

I should’ve bent a bit more closer to her, see if the barrier would come down (maybe a small peck on the cheek) :wink:

Oh no worries, I’ll keep going at it; will have more opportunities during the holiday parties


I also noticed a brief spell of mild nausea/headache, lasting 30mins-1hr, when I use IH; is it expected?

Since I am a non-clubbing person, the only opportunities I get with ladies is at work. Hopefully with all the experiments and a whole lot of patience, I’ll get to a mix(s) which gets me to my goal (the targets) as well as helps me with the work side of things.

I have been reading up the journals of the Phermone-Jedi masters as well; information there is worth its weight in gold, simple awesome. Wish I had more time to dedicate, but I’ll surely keep up my observations and post regularly. I have put aside funds for me next order as well:
AMMO, IS, CTTM2, TUTH, MX353/MX297, P83 (just waiting for them to be in the store).

This is a great start to what promises to be a pretty awesome journal. I’m digging your observations and would like to read more.

You’ll totally get the hang of it. I’m here for yah too
