The complete forum story on P101’s potential usefulness, in its own ‘trippy’ way, for focus and in helping people to ‘get things done’ and in the case of Wrlprchnx, really get into his ultimate frisbee games…
P101: putting on a putative to shake a funky mood in tax season
dolly (March 25, 2007):
" P101
Ok, ladies…let’s liven up the ladies forum here…tired of talking about the same old things!! ALTHOUGH, I DO LOOOOOVE HEARING THE HIT REPORTS!!!
So, I got in my order of replenishing stock yesterday (I was almost out of all of my experimones… ), and I got a whole bunch of putatives to play with.
This morning, I woke up feeling kind of crappy…got a sinus issue going on with all of the pollen here, and I only got about 2 hrs of sleep last night. But, it IS tax season, and I have a lot of tax returns to do for another CPA. So, I knew I would be having a full day today…no time to rest. But, I just couldn’t seem to break the funky mood…
So, I decided that before I started working, I would play a little. I grabbed the first bottle sitting on my table…P101…ok, I’ll give it a shot. One big spray to each wrist…first impression…funky smell…not BAD, just strange. But, after about 5 min, couldn’t smell it at all.
Sat here, whiffing it occassionally, and after a few minutes, much to my dismay, my mood starting lifting a little. I started working, cranked out 2 returns in less than an hour, and noticed that I was HUMMING while I was doing it. Feeling a little upbeat…
Anybody else played with 101? What are you getting?"

"So, today, I am pairing P101 with TAF. Two sprays P101 to the wrists, with a sweep of TAF up each inner arm, from the wrist to the crook of my elbow (probably about 4-6 sprays of 5 mcg strength). The neroli in the TAF covered the P101 quite well.
Sitting here sniffing it, and feeling it start to kick in…I feel a fun, productive day coming on…feeling motivated to work, and happy about it… …ready and raring to go! Will post later to let you know how it goes!"
P101 at four sprays: a night of uncontrollable laughter with two friends - #11 by Astralmind
Astralmind (March 25, 2007):
"Well just spray 2 shots of p101(on hands, wrists and then applied to pulse points).
The smell… its like smoked salmon ! Definitly a strong “smoked fish” smell. I probably wont have any social interactions tonight but I find it interesting to test pheros alone in my living room at first. Helps me focus on personal observations before I get into the real fun.
I do not feel any spacy feeling yet (maybe 25 ,mcg isnt enough) but I feel somekind of an internal warmth. I felt tired before and now altough I still feel physically worn out, I feel my mind has an easier time focusing… and yet I feel somewhat detached.
A slightly relaxing feeling and somekind of a trippy focus. As if I was watching myself typing this right now instead of really doing it.
Weird
Edit : Bleh .. added an extra spray, straight to my face. A weird feeling for sure. Took off my glasses to apply the spray and had a hard time putting them back on. Clumsy yet focussed."
Quick P101 report
nibbla (April 27, 2007):
" Quick P101 report
Got home after a good day’s work, happy but tired. I usually find that my energy bubble deflates shortly after I get home whilst i settle into a different mindset and I would normally ‘come down’ just freewheeling, surfing the net etc.
Today shortly after arriving back home I hit myself with 3 sprays of 12.5mcg p101. Within minutes the urge to organise and tidy took me over. I completely went through my study and about 3/4 of the way through this mass clear out, decided that I needed an extra piece of furniture to properly store my paperwork and other stuff.
I walked into town (15 mins away) to have a look around a particular shop and liked the look of a few pieces. Went back home, got my car, drove back to the shop and bought a piece I particularly liked and returned home with it to continue my re-organisation - now including this new piece of furniture. As I drove I was aware that I was mission-focussed and that nothing was going to get in my way - not aggressively but in a positive ‘there’s not a problem I can’t solve’ way.
I didn’t stop until my wife reminded me that I hadn’t eaten and even then I had to make sure it was all just so. I was like a robot, it was as though I was in a trance and time just flew by.
I had on the remmants of my day mix; A314, Turn Up The Heat, p79 and IS but I had a similar experience a couple of weeks ago with just 3 sprays of p101, so I’m confident I can attribute today’s experience to this putative."
P101 Report - Playing Ultimate
Wrlprchnx (August 2008):
" P101 Report - Playing Ultimate
(ultimate frisbee)
So I decided to test P101 at my ultimate game first.
Applied a pretty standard mix whose effects (especially self-effects) I am fairly comfortable with.
2X AMMO(Chest)
2.5X IS (Neck & Hair)
2X P101 (Neroli scented, minimum togo mcg)
Decided to go with two sprays instead of one because I was outdoors and was going to be sweating a bit (thought 1 would just wear off too quickly)
Immediately after application I got my standard “New Pheremone Headache” - I always seem to get after my first couple applications - The headache went away rather quickly.
I found myself being rather playful with my LTR very soon after - she was pretty smiley but really nothing to speak of.
At Amazon.com: The Game: Penetrating the Secret Society of Pickup Artists ― A Provocative Memoir on Male Dating Subculture and Seduction: 9780060554736: Strauss, Neil: Books the game - potential hit in that after about a half hour of playing I realized that everyone seemed to be really “into Amazon.com: The Game: Penetrating the Secret Society of Pickup Artists ― A Provocative Memoir on Male Dating Subculture and Seduction: 9780060554736: Strauss, Neil: Books”]the game"… it could be that we don’t terribly much like the team we were playing and had lost to them twice before - but the team seemed unusually motivated.
Personally I didn’t think I found myself any more focussed or motivated - but I got a comment from someone on the other team that it was fascinating watching me run because I seemed to be putting so much into it. Also, after Amazon.com: The Game: Penetrating the Secret Society of Pickup Artists ― A Provocative Memoir on Male Dating Subculture and Seduction: 9780060554736: Strauss, Neil: Books" the game[/ame] I was REALLY SORE (still quite sore) despite the fact that we had more spares then usual so I didn’t play as much as I normally might. I was also laying out for the frisbee all over the place (had comment from teammate about how I was playing more on my knees then on my feet)
First report on P101 - It could have been that my team was just particularily motivated, but P101 might have boosted the team’s focus. As far as self-effects - I gotta say I think P101 helped me focus more strongly on Amazon.com: The Game: Penetrating the Secret Society of Pickup Artists ― A Provocative Memoir on Male Dating Subculture and Seduction: 9780060554736: Strauss, Neil: Books the game ."

Wrlprchnx (August 2008):
"…OVERALL RESULTS -
Not quite as solid as I had hoped - especially after the first test with P101 . The windy day game showed nothing, but Amazon.com: The Game: Penetrating the Secret Society of Pickup Artists ― A Provocative Memoir on Male Dating Subculture and Seduction: 9780060554736: Strauss, Neil: Books the game that afternoon it really did feel like I was in the zone, people around me were in the zone and I was able to push myself really really hard. On Sunday it didn’t seem as intense (2X vs. 4X with slight leftovers from the morning) but some people who weren’t as tired seemed to be really pushing themselves hard (however it was also a final so take it however)…"
P101 Report - Playing Ultimate - #8 by Wrlprchnx
Wrlprchnx (September 2008):
"Figured I’d post my latest experiment with P101 back here again ~
Playing Ultimate (once again) - I will try it at work eventually, I just wake up too late to even remember to put on my A314/IS combo most of the time.
A314/IS in the morning before work (standard 2 drops 2 sprays) - probably a little A314 still hanging around come game-time @ 6:00pm
Applied 4 sprays P101 to Neck and behind ears
Outdoor conditions - Light Wind, about 15-20 degrees, partly cloudy but the sun was already starting to go down
SELF - EFFECTS -
Similar to last time I felt really “INTO” Amazon.com: The Game: Penetrating the Secret Society of Pickup Artists ― A Provocative Memoir on Male Dating Subculture and Seduction: 9780060554736: Strauss, Neil: Books the game right from the start. Found I was able to just see the whole field when I was throwing and being blocked (I tend to have difficulty finding people when I am marked) - Overall I found my level of focus was just one gear higher than normal. During one particularily long point I distincly remember coming back to the sideline and barely being able to breathe I had played so hard.
EFFECTS ON OTHERS -
Initially team morale/motivation seemed fairly standard - There is a bunch of new people on the team for fall league. I did notice that everyone just seemed to start meshing and we started really playing together better after the first time-out (the first time most of the team sat around me for any period of time).
ONE NEGATIVE EFFECT I HAVE NOTICED - While overall focus, I’d call it “Big Picture” focus seems to improve - I have noticed that I tend to lose a little bit of detail focus. I find it really improved my ability to see the field, see where the frisbee is going - where it should go, but when it actually comes to catching the frisbee (really zoning in on the frisbee - detail focus) - I tend to be a little fumbly fingered initlally after exposure to P101 (I noticed this last time as well, but thought it was maybe just a bad day). Right after half-time (where my team would have gotten the highest exposure to P101) I found that people always seemed to be in the right place or throwing to the right place but we were dropping the frisbee like mad.
CAVEAT - it seems like the overall focus boost lasts longer than the fine detail focus loss."
