Between Akuto, FF22 & FF23, which one has the most masculine scent?

Masculine, as in sophisticated yet rugged; “bald with a 5’o clock shadow & a leather jacket” 😉

[Neroli](https://a314.com/product-category/scented/androtics-neroli/) smells very nice, though I have been told that it smells rather sweet/soapy on me. :o

I have also been told that Neroli is rather “incongruent” with my character overall, due to its sweet tones.

I have not smelled any other scents besides Neroli.

What does Akuto smell like?

Your experiences & opinions would be appreciated.  
Thanks 🆒

FF22 or Akuto would be my suggestions, with Akuto being the more rugged/musky of the two but FF22 is a good mature/mascuine floral-based scent that stands out but is not overpowering and is widely wearable.

FF23 is lighter/more classy scent and FF21 is the difficult one IMO, although I can’t deny that it is the best diffuser of the lot.

What are you wanting these scents for? All are good as primary scents but if you start getting putatives in them, you coud end-up making testing much more difficult as even at 6%, they will limit your dose range somewhat. Saying that, Akuto at 6% would be the next most versatile scent after [Neroli](https://a314.com/product-category/scented/androtics-neroli/).

I voted [Akuto](https://a314.com/product-category/scented/akuto/).

x1 Ammo regular scent (1 spray to both forearms from 30ml bottle) + 5mcg P102 Neroli scent (1 spray total from a to-go size on the wrist rubbed onto the other):

Either alone or together, the scent overall was rather “mismatched” somehow for my temperament.

I was told that it was pleasant, yet not befitting my character in a way, for being more on the “sweet/floral side.”

With my rugged appearance though, I wouldn’t mind going for a scent that would compliment my overall demeanor.

At 6%, I don’t really plan on using any other form of cologne though, since I would like the scent to be masculine, yet not as pungent as a cologne aisle. 😃

I plan to use any social, sexual and business [pheromones](https://pheromonelabs.com/shop/) with an Akuto scent if it is the more masculine one.

I understand that Neroli is also unisex.

What do you think? 🙂

…c’mon guys, we need more votes.

I know I’m not the only one who wants to know this. 🙄

More newbs like myself come here everyday, and it’s up to this community to inform others from their experiences.

This is just one of many common questions that are bound to be asked sooner or later. 😉

I have searched many other threads already, though this one might be easier to find for a newb, being that it’s new. (Akuto seems to be the one)

I’d like to think that this can be helpful in a way for everyone.

Thanks guys. 🆒

I completely fail to see how anything involving FF21 could be termed “sweet/floral” 😮

If you want masculine but not pungent, then FF22 or [Akuto](https://a314.com/product-category/scented/akuto/) is the way to go - Although 6% of either will not adequately cover all pheros and is only useful with a stronger primary scent and I wouldn’t go for Ammo in anything other than 10% for FF22 or Akuto. IIRC my Akuto Ammo (2x) and TUTH (5mcg) are both at full 20% - and need it!

The grapefruit scent is one of the better of its sort but I’d hardly even consider it a masculine sense - IME it is mainly used in female scents.

Also consider this combo - Armani Code and Akuto work superbly together, shirt-ripped off you style! 😃

“Soapy” was another one. Personally, I like the smell actually. 🆒

Ah… That is good to know! (_sigh_ being a newb sucks haha)

In [Akuto](https://a314.com/product-category/scented/akuto/), I’ll take your advice and go for a 10% with the Ammo next time.

Would you recommend the same thing for all other pheros aswell?

Yes - soapy, oh yes, most certainly bloody soapy! 😮😃

I’d go for the primary product in 10 or 20% and use that for the main cover scent but any putatives I’d stick to the lighter 6%. This will let you use more sprays and make it much easier to establish your dose range with different products, without ending-up with an overpoweringly strong scent.

</div>

Of the 'mones I’ve tried, the FF21 in [Ammo](https://a314.com/product/ammo/) is the most masculine. I have never been really big into cologne, but that stuff smells really good. I catch the hint of soapiness also, and would never think of this scent as floral/sweet.

Edit: I went ahead and voted FF21, even though I haven’t tried all of the scents listed.

I’m thinking maybe Ammo in [Akuto](https://a314.com/product-category/scented/akuto/) at 20% and IS in Akuto at 6% for example would be ideal then?

What is a good dose range?

[Akuto](https://a314.com/product-category/scented/akuto/) gets my vote. Reminds me of that virile post-workout aura that attracts the ladies.

Btw, I also read somewhere that having a slight feminine scent might actually **increase** attraction to a man by making him “prequalified” to a woman’s sense of mating potential and long-term compatibility.

Apparently, if she can smell another woman on you, it **may** work in your favor. 😛

My wife says she loves the hint of her perfume on me (and of another woman’s if she likes her) though I have to have a masculine scent as my main signature.

I’ll order my next Ammo in [Akuto](https://a314.com/product-category/scented/akuto/). 🆒

A woman’s perfume works wonders to appear preselected in the club, too.

Neroli is best for lighthearted molecules such as TAA, leave Ishine as is.

Couplins are a [pheromone](https://a314.com/shop/) secreted in the vagina (“capable of mind control”). When someone says, “You smell like sex,” they’re referring to the copulins on you. When left unmasked, they often reek of old fish.

My wife would be interested in that, and I’d be curious to see it’s effects on other women aswell. 🙂

IJ used to. Dirty will. For now, it’s third-party Scent of Eros (SOE).

I remember reading about Alphanol & Betanol, and how it can give off a somewhat feminine overtone that can decrease a masculine signature ie IO & IH.

Perhaps those two in [Akuto](https://a314.com/product-category/scented/akuto/) would be ideal in that scenario?

Don’t bother changing lighthearted socials from their pleasant Neroli base. The scents only last 5-10 mins and are designed to elicit emotions congruent with that of the pheromone signature (e.g. Ishine & IO “Neroli”: carefree). _“They work in a similar way as aromatherapy, except that they are used in a much less noticeable concentration.”_
