I received my first shipment of pheremones yesterday. A to-go bottle each of Instant Openness, Instant Female Magic, and Turn Up the Heat, along with a freebie to-go bottle of Instant Jerk. The first thing I did when I got the package was get four squares of unscented toilet paper and smell each one. Of course, the strongest smells were from the perfumed Instant Jerk and TUTH, though IFM had a citrus-y smell as described on its page. Anyway, I’m usually good at describing smells in words, but I seem to be blanking out on how to describe TUTH and IJ. Also, I sprayed one spray of TUTH in my hair to see how it would affect me and the people around me. Probably should have started with Instant Openness as it isn’t so sexual and is a more general application pheromone. Anyway, I noticed that I absolutely loved the smell of TUTH (and IJ for that matter, so good job whoever designs the scents.) I also kept getting wiffs of it at odd times. I wouldn’t smell it for a while, then all of a sudden would get a strong sniff. I could still smell if when I woke up this morning. The strangest part is that, while surfing the web and checking e-mail before I took a shower this morning, I had this constant urge to spray on more, even though I’m not planning to use it today, and won’t be in any situations in which it would be helpful or evoke a positive response (I’ll be home until I go to work at 5.) The urge seemed to be related to the smell. Once I took a shower and washed my hair, I no longer had the subconscious urge to spray on more. Is this my own body reacting to the pheromones, or do I just really like the smell?
It is just that you are so eager to try them out all since you just got them 
!
I suffer the same effect from Instant Shine and Ammo. Once I put some on, as soon as its dried down, I get an urge to spray more. Sometimes its actually quite a strong ‘need’ to do so. I figured it to be one of the self effects from the initial spray, seeing as at that time, its the most potent, you naturally wanting it to stay strong instead of die down.
TUTH in your hair? Brave man. It’s not unheard of, but as a newbie to the world of pheros, be prepared for the lingering smell of androstenone for a couple of days. It seems to stick to hair pretty good. Too good in some cases. If you discover you’re sensitive to -none, it might not be very pleasant.

Well, those two smell like ass, pussy, piss and armpit all rolled into one. Only a true horny toad could love those scents…
I just call it a “spicy” smell. Ribbit.
Spicy will work. As for horny toads, I don’t have a particularly massive libido or anything. Maybe it’s hiding and just waiting for more girls to come stroke it. Then it’ll grow to colossal proportions. 
My hair is fairly straight and doesn’t tangle easily. After washing it well this morning, I no longer smell the perfume or the androstenone, though I’m not sure what part of the scent was the androstenone. What does it smell like? Also, what would happen if I were sensitive to androstenone? I didn’t observe any ill effects, but if they appear in other people, I’d like to know.
Many people describe androstenone in different ways. Gegogi’s are the best. To me, it smells like a mild skunk musk, with hints of burning rubber. It’s got sort of a locker room bouquet to it. Some people can’t smell it at all, anecdotal evidence saying about 30% of people, so you could be one of them.
If you’re sensitive, you’ll overdose easily, which can manifest itself in several ways. Notice when I type OD here, it’s blue. Hover your mouse pointer over it for a general description of an overdose. Some of the symptoms are agitation, short temper, headache, restlessness, and maybe even nausea. Daedelus76 is sensitive to it and has written about it in his journal. It’s worth a look.

This is an interesting article you might find helpful…
After reading a few descriptions of the smell of androstenone, as well as checking the scents listed on the Instant Jerk and TUTH, I’m fairly sure I can smell the androstenone. When you said “skunk musk”, I realized that I could smell that along with the Neroli, I just have always had bad sinus problems and don’t rely on my sense of smell that much (though when the passages are clear, my sense of smell is amazing.) The thing is, I also like the smell of skunk musk… My family and friends think this is the strangest thing in the world. Whenever we’re driving through a backwoods area and you can smell where a skunk has freshly sprayed, everyone else holds there noses, I look at them like they’re crazy, and they look at me like I’m insane. This is a double-edged sword though. Although the scent will never bother me, because I find it pleasant, it will also be difficult for me to gauge when it becomes overwhelming or unpleasant to others. I put a spray of Instant Jerk directly on my wrist about an hour and a half ago, but I can still smell it clearly all around me. I also like the smell of burning rubber… What’s wrong with me!?
Very interesting, thx for the link
After reading your descriptions of what androstenone smells like, I’m fairly sure I can smell it. When data4 said “skunk musk” I realized that I could smell that. I don’t smell burning rubber much. The problem is that I like the smell of skunk musk. This makes my family and friends think there must be something terribly wrong with me. When we’re driving through a woodsy area and pass an area where as skunk has recently sprayed, everyone else holds their nose, I look at them like they’re crazy, and they like at me like I’m literally insane. I guess I’d have to do more tests to figure it out. This is a double-edged sword, I would think. Although the scent will never bother me, because I find it pleasant, it will also be difficult for me to gauge when it might become overwhelming or unpleasant to others. I also like the smell of burning rubber. What’s wrong with me!?
