According to the study in Hormones and Behavior, both the pheromones in Realm for Men (Estratetraenol) and Realm for Women (Androstadienone) had a positive mood effect on women and a negative mood effect on men. These results are interesting for two reasons:
1. Estratetraenol was found to positively effect women even though a previous study had shown it not to stimulate the VNO. This may partially explain why some men have claimed success in attracting women with Realm for Men.
2. The pheromones in Realm for Men or Women would negatively affect male wearers. This goes against market claims of increased self-confidence, etc. for male wearers of Realm for Men.
So, are the Realm fragrances worth it? It might attract women, but it may cause you to feel worse. =P.
I had worn Realm for Men before. I didn\'t like the smell, and it did seem to make me feel worse. I had thought it was the smell though. =P.
