View Full Version : What if pheromone gets too popular?
I
think the day will come. If everyone wore pheromone, wouldn't it lose the advantages that pheromone users are
after? :think:

This has been discussed
before. First of all, -mones aren't going to become mainstream yet because not enough people believe they work.
As soon as advertisers start to use them to screw with people's heads, they may start to put them in many
fragrances. That said, even then most people won't experiment to use them effectively, they'll just wear what's
in the mainstream colognes that just say they have -mones in them to enhance your sexuality. That'll screw with a
lot of people's lives (What if they OD? They won't know what's going on...).
In the unlikely situation that
-mones become as popular as CK cologne or whatever, the next level would be for the best users to experiment with
what works best for them so they have an edge over others who aren't willing to put the effort in to experiment.
The experimenters and the smart ones will still have an edge.
Besides, we teach more than -mones here on the
forum. We try and help people improve their overall attractiveness as well (go to the gym, check body language,
etc.).
On a side note, with society being so sex-crazed as it is in the media, I wonder what would happen if
they started adding -mones...

i agree with pancho here. i dont
think mones are going to be popular, because often you have to experiment in order to find the right amount. and
when people do not find it right away they just say "they wont work" and spread this further.

Commerial perfume companies
are using or looking into using pheromones, and more will incorporate them in the future, especially as new
products come out. It'll eventually be main stream, but the doses will be lower than what we use (for the stinkier
things anyway, which can irritate women depending on the time of the month), and they won't disclose that
pheromones are in the product.

What are the laws for
disclosing incredients?
I know all ingestible food has to have ingredient information for allergies and such.
Why don't chemicals you apply to your skin have to disclose ingredients as well?
It is the wild west. Not that I have
much of a problem with that. And don't forget, many companies aren't American.

I think a lot of people
probably think of mones as having a placebo effect. Sometimes, it can be easy to think that because the content is
not really given out to the public, such as WAGG, Pheros, or Chikara. (However, these are some of the more popular
products sold on this site!) I agree that it can be a big hassle or a time-consuming task to experiment with
products. And for every person who sees results with mones, there's probably another person who's getting no
results from it for whatever reason.
That being said, I think a lot of people know about this stuff nowadays.
You see it in spam e-mails, online articles, news stories, etc. Whether or not they use it is, only a guy like
Bruce would know.

You have to
disclose for cosmetics but not perfumes.

As a Business student who knows
marketers who works at cologne companies, companies are in fact looking into phero's, However there are several
issues that must be considered prior to doing so some of these I will discuss. These are reasons "why" mones will
most likely not become mainstream if ever.
1) There are legal issues, since mones do infact "influence" ones
actions and attitude, contents in colognes may cause unwanted effects. This is very complicated as I am not a
lawyer thus I can't elaborate. But one way is to fully disclose the effects of mones, the effects, drawbacks, etc.
which is very costly.
2) Companies will not use mones since there is no "market" for it. Like people said, not
much people know about mones, therefore companies have to "differentiate" itself from others, but if nobody knows
what is different nobody will really buy it. And since like others said, most people do not believe it works or may
know "adverse effects" will not even touch these things.
3) This lack of demand, is not profitable, therefore there
is no market for it.
4) Also, mones works differently with individuals, it may be good for some and bad for
others, but this is very unpredictable thus it may cause "bad image" through word of mouth etc. Ie, new product
with mone, it helps to make you more attractive, but if you wear it and you OD than it is really will be bad for the
company image.
4) In terms of OD, this is very true, in order to produce the product it must be homogenous, meaning
it must be accepted by the masses (in order to profit from it), so cologne companies will be VERY conservative in
the content and doses it uses. This will in turn make it less effective.
Note, us "real" mones users have
different doses, different combinations etc, which gives us the "kick" and effectiveness.
If a standard and minimum
content is used it will not work or lack in effectivness.
5) Also, in terms of market, If you havn't noticed the
cologne industry is mostly for women, sure there is cologne for men but havn't you noticed how if you go to the
cologne section of a store, you get like 5 to 6 areas for women perfume, and for cologne there is only one stand.
This proves how men usually does not use cologne as "daily" products compared to women.
Therefore, there really
isn't much to worry about in terms of us daily phero users.
So all of what I said, lack of market, huge costs, the
OD effect, the profit factor, and the fact that men just don't use cologne as much proves that we don't really
need to worry about mainstream.
There is just not enough "profitable" reason to make company mass produce these
things.
