I’ve ditched the standard reporting template for this for reasons which I hope I can make clear.
So far I’ve tried this twice. The first time was at home with my GF. Her favourite hairdresser had quit the local salon and opened up her own mobile business. She came to our house, had a drink or two, did the GF’s hair, chatted away. I’d just received 337 in my order that day, so tried 3 sprays.
The second time was last night. A family dinner at a restaurant near work for my Dad’s birthday. I went up to 4 sprays for this.
Now the reason I’ve ditched the template is that I don’t have any “in your face” hits to report.
But – cryptically – that’s a good thing.
I could explain by boring the crap out of you all with a blow by blow account of both evenings – but believe me it would be long winded. So I’ll just tell you why I like this instead ![]()
Both evenings were characterized by a fun, very sociable yet natural vibe. I emphasise natural.
I’m a big fan of MX272 as a social, but there is still something overly animated and kind of manufactured about the response. The same with a lot of other decent socials. I think at some point you can see Alpha’nol or Beta’nol take a hold of the person - they become sort of a goofy caricature of themselves – slightly too silly or too verbose. It isn’t necessarily a bad thing and it can be fun, but it doesn’t strike me as totally natural. It’s kind of like having a happy conversation when you’re drunk.
This MX337 beast feels different. People (including me) were happy to talk and interact, even with strangers. The mood was upbeat, positive – enjoying the company of your fellow man BUT – there wasn’t any loss of control. Clarity of thought was still present, even enhanced. You could even sit in silence and listen to others talk. It wasn’t about talking and opening up – those things happened almost as a side effect because it just felt good to be the social animals that we humans are.
It was completely natural.
That’s why I can’t talk of hits. There is no such thing. This was simply the way intelligent, good natured people should interact. This was sitting with your best friend or your family, stone cold sober, and just having a good natter about anything and everything.
You can bet I’ll be playing with this again……
