the newer pheros gives me a
buzz similar to PI or AE. Smells good, I could not tell ya what notes are different but its good. Hits, I have had
good luck with the old pheros. I have only worn the new stuff twice but did not go out with it yet to test. But it
worked on my wife.

Several have already commented
on comparisons between the two, saying that the newer one has more "kick" and "phero buzz" effect, but that the
smell is still recognizable as Pheros. I've noticed more reports of unsolited friendliness so far from
customers in the forum and from my own experience. We haven't heard from Sue in a long while. I wonder how many of
the fifty or so people that tried the beta (I think the average person purchased two bottles or something) even have
the new version yet? Many still have some left, as a little can go a long way, depending on the person.

I never got in on the Beta.
As
far as the new one goes... Unfortunately I haven’t had a chance to test it in public, but last night I put a dab
between my wrists to see what I thought of it.
The smell is great. I’m not a perfume connoisseur, so i have
nothing to compare it to and no way to describe it. But I felt instantly possessive over it, as in “This is MY
smell.”
I fell asleep sniffing my wrists, had the most vivid erotic dreams and woke up with the hardest
morning wood. (May it work half as well on women.)
This morning I scrubbed my application point with a luffa
sponge but I still perceived a faint, spicy-musky smell throughout the day.

Mobley,
I believe the reason that
we haven't seen koolking around much is that shortly after his new batch of Pheros arrived he found himself being
Sue'd.
Repeatedly! ;)
bjf,
As you know, but most others probably don't, I had gotten an advance sample
of Pheros from DrSmellThis before the first bottle of batch #1 was even corked. He had put it in a tiny vial that I
guess must have been about half a milliliter or so. So small that a standard eyedropper doesn't fit through the
vial's opening. This vial had evidently contained one of Pheros' more exotic ingredients, because even though he
had cleaned it, whatever residual fragrance that lingered therein enhanced the sample beautifully. When I received
my first bottle of the first batch, I loved it, but it seemed to fall ever so slightly short of the fragrance of my
sample due to what was in essence "contamination" that was imparted by the vial.
Well, maybe it was just the
artiste in him, or (flattering myself) maybe it had some little to do with my feedback about the sample vial, but
for this batch the good doctor has added MORE of the type of ingredient that had originally come in my little vial,
AND has left the product in a considerably more concentrated form. There was nothing wrong with Pheros I in my
opinion. But Pheros II has lots more that's RIGHT about it. It's stronger, it's deeper, it's got lots better
staying power, and though I think it might be my imagination, I believe it has an even better mood enhancing effect
on me than did batch one.
How good is it? When I'm sitting here at the computer scanning the forum or trying to
pretend to be that pretty operator on the Live Help Online on the L-S store site, I usually put a nice dab on the
backs of my hands just so I can enjoy it. In the morning it has the signature Pheros scent, by mid afternoon it's a
blend of fragrances, some Pheros, some me, some of the exotic basenotes. By evening it's just me and the animals.
Deep, dark, forbidding.
It's too good to waste. I wear just enough for ME to enjoy. Nobody I know would
appreciate this scent as much as I do. Let 'em buy their own bottle. I want to make mine last forever. I would say
that it's a "special occasion" scent, but I'd have a hard time thinking of what occasion might be special enough
for me to actually wear it as a "broadcast fragrance". I can probably get three or four self-indulgence applications
for every broadcast application that I might apply.
I'll be the first to admit that this stuff has got me
teetering VERY near the edge. ;)
Don't even ASK what it LOOKS like!

Thanks for the detailed and
descriptive post, Oscar! I did use your feedback for the upgrade, as I did others'.
You and AKA are reminding
me of Gollum a little bit! ;) It's weird, though, as I sort of know that "possessive" feeling too. That's why I
often put it on my face, because I wear it for myself as well as for others. It is the kind of thing I've worn even
if I knew I wouldn't see anyone -- warming, cheerful, and comforting. Part of that is from the sandalwood, but
it's more intense. My ex-girlfriend smelled the outside of the master jug yesterday and made some grunting noises.
So I asked her what was up with that, and she said, "It brings out the animal in me." That would be the type of
reaction I'd hope for from it. I'm wondering if the type (not just degree) of reaction varies with dose.

PHEROS: Yesterday a woman I’d never met before tapped
me on the shoulder and asked me to dance... at a party where nobody else was dancing, while I had my arm around my
girlfriend, and Portishead was on the stereo. I was wearing the new Pheros. Very potent IMO. One dab split between
either side of my neck. My girlfriend couldn't get enouch of me. Women were very friendly, in a soft spoken,
attentive kind of way (vs. the chatty, animated friendliness you get with SOE.) Not a lot of smiling eye contact,
but a lot of sly sideways glances. This stuff is wicked.
[colo
r=#000000]Nobody’s forced to believe me, and nobody’s forced to believe they’re going to get the same results with
the same product. I just want to have my bragging rights. (A.K.A.)
[/color]Kooooooooool
King!:whip: Where are ya man!? Hiding under yer bed from yer Sue!?:run: Since you be using dee stuff fer long time
and tis well known in dese parts that ya like dee product, vas vondering yer toughts on dee differences of the Old &

...a little bird told me that
Sue and KK have not yet tried the new brew, but are planning on it soon. I hope the little bird doesn't mind
me saying so. Hopefully they will let us know when they have information to share.

Hi Everyone!!! We have yet
to order the new Pheros due to financial complications - we had intended to order 10 bottles so that Sue would have
a good long supply of it. Who knows, I may wear it myself just to experiment. We'll likely just get two bottles
for now. I suspect we'll have some Pheros "reports" out around next weekend (much needed 4 day weekend for us) -
headed to Buffalo and Niagara Falls for the Bills/Pats game so there should be plenty of opportunities for
testing.
