Man, A314 smells like ass but it also kicks, like, ass. I have to adjust the mirrors in my car because I’m sitting up straight! Clears your head as well. I just chillax and concentrate on the task at hand. Slap on some instant openess and its like the ‘bubble’ you live in just grew 30 meters.
I’m a newb skeptic turned Androtics lover, thanks guys! 
First and foremost I would like to welcome you here. Its good to see that you have been having great results. A314 is great for the alpha male vibe and as you saw by adding some instant openess which takes some of the intimidating aspects out of the formula it opened the doors for conversation even more. What I and many others I am sure would like to know is where your placing your application points and how much? I look forward to hearing more about your adventures with pheros.
I understand there are many version of A314. The latest version I got (March 08) smells good. I love it
yeah i have to agree so far A314 is the only one of my collection that kinda smells…but i get used to it after application.
Thanks for the replies. After reading a few threads I dropped one under my nose, and one onto my wrists. One spray of IO to each wrist and covered it all with cologne. Had a shot of ammo to the chest a couple of nights ago as well, got some great hits just chilling on a couch with my guitar.
Mines ‘V.17 Batch 4’. Like soe_none said, its not so bad after 10 minutes. Pretty keen to try MX103/203, and some IFM as well. Then I’ll be content.
$$$ 
hahaha
yes my friend… $$$$$
How bad does it smell Im getting some soon, is it like cat piss or goat piss like some people have mention.
At first, it doesn’t really smell, but the longer you keep it on, the more it smells. I think it has to do with the bacteria breaking it down into Androstenone. If you apply it behind the ears, it smells like belly button funk by the time you wake up the next morning.
