Well, I have been testing the pheros that I got last Friday morning, and I have not had any hits that I can recall. I did remember reading that the spray pheros dont work well in hot and dry climates which is where I happen to live. I am wondering if anyone has any advice as to what I should do. Should I up the dosage? Also, thanks for the TUTH Jasmin. That’s wicked awesome of you. ---

Hot dry climates will shorten the time that it takes the [pheromones](https://pheromonelabs.com/shop/) to evaporate off your skin…you may need to reapply more often. Otherwise the effects should be the same. Best advice is to use one product at a time, change the amount you use until you see it working. check these threads [https://pheromonetalk.com/t/read-me-first-helpful-topics-on-how-to-get-around/3106](https://pheromonetalk.com/t/read-me-first-helpful-topics-on-how-to-get-around/3106) > [@How do I know if I am getting hits !!](https://pheromonetalk.com/t/how-do-i-know-if-i-am-getting-hits/14192): > > Its a question we all ask at some point… The very first thing to do when you begin to think about purchasing pheromones is to start observing people before you use them. Ask yourself what are peoples normal general reaction to you and others around you. Are they open and friendly ? Are they intimidated ? Do they acknowledge your presence ? Do strangers generally talk to you ? Are people in a great mood when hanging around you ? Do people treat you with respect ?

Sprays and [oil pheromones](https://a314.com/product-category/oil-pheromones/) tend to disperse faster in Hot dry areas. Because they evaporate quicker and your extra sweat actually works to carry them away quicker, so you may have to reapply sooner, as in every 2-3 hours as opposed to every 4-6. Applying more at once, will make a bigger bang, but they length of their effect will not be lingering for much longer of a time period. (man I miss Colorado, where you can work in 100_F heat and it not feel much warmer than 70_F out here in the swamp-west) ---

I have only been testing one so far. The one I started with was instant shine, and although I have seen somewhat of a small difference in myself, I haven’t seen any change in the people I work with. I am up to 3 sprays and still no change. ---

I did not see much reaction on a daily basis with Instant shine by it’s self either. [Ammo](https://a314.com/product/ammo/) or IO seem to work better for me. I haven’t tried CTTM but I am thinking about it.
