What is MX455?
What the heck is a Pheromone Analogue?
Well. Let me start at the top.
While we were sniffing around, researching different components for the Stealth Diffusion Experiment, we found a very interesting odorant indeed.
Just on NOSE alone, it was a cross between something like androstenone and P130, scent-wise.
So we were like, “What the heck, let’s try this out as a pheromone and see if it gets any hits?”
A few of our designers tried it out in the Pacific Northwest over the Christmas holiday. Something happened. I’m not gonna say what, so your thoughts and reports don’t get flavored.
“What’s a pheromone analogue?”
Well, an analog is a synthetic version of something real. Think butter popcorn flavoring. Is it real? Naw, it’s a bunch of fragrance compounds stitched together to give you the idea of the BEST BUTTER EVER.
So, we’re sniffing this odd molecule in our Stealth Diffusion Experiment palette, thinking, “whoa, this smells a lot like if Androstenone and P130 had a baby. What the * could the effect be? Or…?”
Keep in mind, it may be a dud, too. Who knows? This thing ain’t even a pheromone, it just smells like one. Can the human nose tell a difference???

How to Test:
Spray like you would your usual cologne or perfume, on your usual pulse points.
This mix has been calibrated to work best at a two spray dosage. Start there but try everything.
Spray. Let dry. Sniff. Does the smell remind you of anything? What do you notice yourself feeling?
What to Report:
We’re collecting data on a few parameters, which I’ll explain here.
- Strength - How strong did you feel the effects? On yourself? On others? Did it hit you over the head, or was it more subtle?
- Length of Effects - When did you notice the onset of effects? When did you notice the outset? When did it peak? When did it wane?
- Tenacity - Tenacity refers to ?staying power?, or the aggressiveness of the cologne. Does it seem to “attack” people around you, or is it more of a “slow burner”? Does it seem like you can point your fume in one direction or another?
- Effectiveness & Consistency - How effective is this mix on a scale of 1-10 (1 bad, 10 killer)? Have its effects been consistent over time?
- Diffusion/Sillage - Sillage refers to your ?vapor trail?. Think of it like the wake of a ship. How many feet/meters is your vapor trail? Do people seem to follow your silage?
Other weird questions that help clarify:
If it were music, what would it sound like?
If it had a texture, what would it feel like?
If it were edible or drinkable, what would it taste like?
What celebrity or public figure is it most like?
Ask yourself these questions during and after you’ve gotten a good feel of this mix.
