I kind of dig the smell. And the (self) effects…well…lovely!

im not sure anyone takes into account that when pheromones hit you that make you feel good, smell takes a backseat . its not that smell is unimportant, but your decision to like or dislike a smell may have something to do with whether you resonate with that signiture.
if i didnt like the smell much, i might add Instant Openness or sunshine to it, or consider another base scent.
guys may not like it on them , but i have shine in chocolatini 
I agree. I couldn’t give a monkey’s what the sprays smell like (provided it does not smell like toxic waste or like I last showered in 1997) provided the -mones get to do their magic and are effective. I have my trustly David Beckham Instinct Cologne for any problematic smelling products (none yet; but I don’t have a sense of smell 
).

it smells like piss 2 me but since i use it with both ammo and honesty those smells kinda cover up is
The bottle of IShine I have smells okay. Reminds of light citrus crossed with landry soap but covers easily. Doesn’t bother me like the rotten fruit/oranges smell of some other Androtics products.
Instant shine stinks to my nose, it really sux
i’ll recieve my first order of instant shine later this week. can’t wait to field test it and will post my results and opinions.my environments will include: highschool graduation, state high school track meet,and sat. night watering hole
Most of the time I enjoy the smell of instant shine but sometimes I will catch an odd whiff of it and it reeks of cat piss.
I’d have to say the same it smells like soap sorta after dry down its nice tho. Sorta like ammo but not as much citris kinda smell i reckon
my gf and i both prefer shine’s scent to ammo.
Instant Shine smells good to me. I don’t undertand how there could be controversy over its scent.
Ammo is really a full blown cologne that happens to have a healthy helping of pheromones. Shine is a pheromone spray with a small amount of scent to “help” dispersion. Sorta an apples to oranges comparison. But I think the less scent the better for you.
oh-most-definitely. 
well first day i got my phero’s i smelt each from the little spray nossles to find out wat i would be putting on myself… and from wat i smelt IS gave me an instant smile. the ammo although smelt nice it smelt more like all my other colognes which is nice cause i usually get complimented on them neways. but all in all both r very nice scents. so obviouslly i put that i loved the smell as my vote great post and poll toil. its a question a lot of ppl have been shooting around the forums
I love love love love the smell of IS. Every time i spray it i get that “shit eating grin” for a moment. After a few hours of being at work and i notice my mood is going down hill, i re spray it for a pick me up…however i need to stop doing that because people from WAY WAY too far can smell me…especially if i have ammo on as well.
Honestly i’m surprised that there would be a controversy on the smell of shine. I think it’s perfect…if i could i would have IS be run though my air conditioner so my whole house constantly smelled like it lol
So is there controversy about A314 smell? I love that smell a lot too…i actually put drops of it on my pillow…it reminds me of lavender but better, so it helps me relax and sleep well.
I like it 2… idk what’s contreversial
Interesting to see the variety of responses–from pissy smell, to citrus, to “I hate it,” to “I love it”–just like people’s reactions to various foods.
Personally, it’s one of my favorite phero scents and I would describe it as a slightly musky, citrus smell with maybe a slight hint of cinnamon.
The phero I really have trouble with is Instant Female Magic. It smells so loudly pissy to me that I just can’t believe I don’t smell like pee to others around me. I cover it with a colone, but I can still smell through that. I still use it though, but more sparingly than I did at first.
The smell of IS does not bother me much.
I don’t quite understand why Instant Female Magic smells the way it does. The smell of Androstadienone is rather light and much cleaner, and has little resemblance to IFM to me. I have previously mixed Androstadienone with IS to match the added fragrance. But, nope, they are completely different.
So far, the only cologne I have come across that is compatible with IFM is Lancome Hypnose Homme.
Smells slightly alcoholic to me. Stings the nose a bit. But that fades quickly.
Now Instant Openness, man I can huff that stuff all day.
Its funny how it can smell different to everyone.
Instant Openness smells like feet to me and not clean ones.
IS smells like a acidy orange. You know like when your pealing one and the acid stuff from the peal squits you in the eye. That smell.
