View Full Version : Mixes with Pheros

For people who have
Pheros, what are some of the mixes that you have been using?
I know the main one floating around is the
Pheros & NPA mix at a 2:1 or 3:1 ratio. I mixed up a 5mL batch of the 3:1 mix myself. It appears to be a good mix,
although I find that it really grabs the attention of older women more it does with younger women. Whether that's
a None OD or the scent of Pheros, I'm not sure. Personally, to me, the smell of Pheros is a "older" muskier one.
I think younger people tend to wear lighter, spicier scents (i.e. Acqua Di Gio, Curve, etc), so that might have
something to do with it.
I also decided to mix a small batch of Pheros with Pheromax (new version) in a 3:1
ratio. I haven't really had a chance to test it out though. My thought process behind this was that Pheromax is a
concentrated product by itself. One spray can give out alot of mones, so I decided to dilute it with Pheros. It's
a nice smell mixed with a product containing a variety of mones. I think I'm going to start testing it out soon.
If I see any results, I'll post them.

Some people mix Pheros and
Chikara to good effect. If you mix with a -none heavy product only you might get more older women (but maybe not,
too). Try adding some -nol.
Part of the idea with Pheros is to give you a bit of natural musk smell as it
tends to be an attractant, for all ages. Trends in perfuming, which are toward light, citrus/vanilla combos, were
not really considered, as the trends are definitely away from anything sexual. That is not our goal here. Our
biological bodies don't care about trends, fortunately.

Since I have been following my hormone titers in my blood for the last 3-4 years and my and the docs
noticed that my progestrone levels fell to almost zero while my blood fats elevated. We're trying to remedy this
with transdermal progestrone, a cream that menopausal women use.
Not too long after I began the progestrone
I would be acutely aware of the musk perfume aroma, even on a busy sidewalk filled with people. If someone walked by
wearing musk the vapor trail would be unmistakable. I think I'd turned up my musk receptors with the hormone
resulting in a female level sensitivity to it.
I was thinking, wow... what a man would hardly notice a woman
might pick up on as "that guy is trying too hard"...
It seems like women are drawn to fragrances that are
interesting (they aren't the same old obvious moves), high quality, and exclusive... In my adventures, with a
"really cool" fragrance, women will even ask me to pull open the neck of my t-shirt so then can get a waft, then
they want to discuss it a little bit. naturally, if you have a nice dose of pheros in the mix, they get a rich dose
of that too...
L'artisan had a great one, too darn bad they discontinued it, it had a middle note of
chocolate that the women are crazy for... too far out for the mainstream...
No problem, I'm buying
chocolate essential oil and putting a drop in with some patchouli oil... could be kinda wicked...
Hmmm...
ambergris, chocolate, patchouli, maybe a little cinnamon leaf, a dab of galanga... and a nice shot of 'none :)

Remember, musk scents in
commercial perfumes are not typically natural musks. So what a woman reacts to is typically something different.

True that! I've got stuff from all over the map, including some Amouage Silver Cristal,
some old DK Men that has GASOLINE in it (this burns away quickly, but the scent left behind is unique), a couple of
Creed scents, and all sorts of off the wall stuff. I usually go with something sweet (Rochas Man, Hanae Mori,
Cristobal, A*Men, etc), but have plenty of more "manly" scents as well.
I always like to catch a woman
sniffing around looking for the scent, then catch her eye. That's something you don't get wearing AdG, Eternity,
or any other cologne that everyone else out there wears.

What nol product would be good to use in conjunction with
Pheros? I thought I read that SOE was not a good product to use with Pheros. Would it be better to apply the two
products seperately or use the unscented version?

Also, I went out yesterday
wearing 2 sprays of my Pheros/PMax mix in the Pmax atomizer. No "hits," but people were pretty nice towards me. I
think I kinda spaced out though while I was wearing it. I put the sprays on the front of my neck. Next time, I'll
try putting it in a place where I can't smell it.

The complaint with SOE/Pheros
was the scent clash, but the -mones should work well. -Nol will always go well with a musk note, as it is itself a
musk note. Basically, I like the idea of mixing any strong unscented -mones, like chem-set mones, PI, or NPA; with
Pheros. The ingredients should enhance each other, as you are combining "dirty"/natural, with pure/synthetic
versions of things.
I guess we'll know more about sophisticated blends after we get more batches out, which
will be soon. I don't think the mysteries have been solved yet. It is sort of an advanced applications, and the
risk of OD seems slightly higher.
Yep, when I smell Pheros too much, which is pretty much every day
recently, :) since I'm bottling it and like to "sample it" occasionally, I do get kind of a tranquilizer or
valium-like effect. I find it pleasant, however, and it feels healthy and clean; rather than "druggy" or polluted to
me. It also seems to be pretty temporary, in that it goes away if I walk outside for a few minutes. It can be
slightly spacey too, however, so I wouldn't want to wear a bunch to a chess tournament, accounting final or math
test. When I'm with someone it translates into a nice subtle interpersonal feeling. It is especially a good feeling
when I am stressed. My favorite place to wear it is my face, but if I didn't want the effect I would want to wear
it away from my face, probably on my wrists, where it tends to smell good anyway.
