View Full Version : TE + Cologne Dosing Question

I
haven't done a lot of testing of TE yet, but have decided it's time to get to know this bad boy better.
So,
I filled up my L-S atomizer with a solution of TE (5 parts) and cologne (Eternity, 4 parts).
Now according to
the references, TE is 0.14 mg/ml of active ingredient, and half of that is secret sauce, leaving 0.07 mg/ml of
NONE.
At 5/4 with cologne, this works out to about 55% of normal strength, or 0.0778 mg/ml.
If the
ideal dose of TE is about 0.24 mg/ml, then how many sprays should I use to get close to this value? Three? Or
should I use six to get closer to .24 mg/ml of NONE? And, would these three sprays from a L-S atomizer actually
give me a total of 0.23 mg/ml? I'm not sure how much is dispensed from a single spray.
For now, I'm
presuming three sprays is a good dose... but to be on the safe side, I'm going to use 2 to start with. It seems to
me that a spray from the L=S atomizer is actually bigger than the spray I get from the TE atomizer.

catlord17,
First a couple of corrections:
I'm not sure where you saw that TE is .14mg/mL of pheros, (that IS the concentration of Andro 4.2 btw,) but most
places in the reference sources list TE as having a .12mg/mL (0.012%) concentration. but unfortunately even THAT is
incorrect.
Some years back when I was compiling the data for what became the
Product Table (http://pherolibrary.com/reference/product-table.html), Edge bottles were erroneously
labeled as containing 20 mL, thus the ".12mg/mL (.012%)" concentration figures (2.4 mg/ 20mL). Regrettably a number
of subsequent in-house reference sources have also relied on this labeling error.
The Edge actually was then,
and is now, a 24mL bottle in which there are 2.4 mg of total pheros. So the correct concentration for TE that should
be listed in the various reference sources is .1mg/mL or .01% total pheromone concentration.

Since we each have different
body chemistry, you need to experiment to find your thresholds. You have an upper threshold, where if you go over
that it's too much and you become scary or otherwise induce too much anxiety in the people around you, and you have
a lower threshold where if you go under that you don't perceive the effects (although there are probably still
effects, just not as pronounced).
So, you have to understand that you identify the thresholds by what you
perceive. That is your range of controllable effectiveness, which can of course be modified by heat, cold,
moisture, wind, distance, and other factors.
There really is no ideal dosage. People can share their
experiences and doses with you and you can see if you can get about the same (or better) results. You may not do as
well.
Experimentation is key.

Signor Friendly, are you still
entertaining 6 sprays of TE with 3-4 dabs of APC?
Always interested in your findings. :POKE:
Thanks! :wave:

I have concluded that 2 sprays
from the L-S sprayer of 4:5 cologne:TE works pretty well. I got my first TE hits with that dose last night. One of
my friends said she was having "all sorts of interesting things" happen, but her 5 year old son was near and she
could not elaborate further. Kind of funny, because she and I have been friends for so long that if we were to take
off our clothes and get drunk,we still wouldn't be the slightest intersted in pursuing anything sexual with one
another.

No, I've scaled way back on the pheromones over the past year. Mostly
because I'm only interested in one person right now. I don't need to have girls crawling out of the woodwork,
trying to meet me, although I still have days where it seems like they can't find anything better to do.
These
days I go with 1 spray each of The Edge and Natural Attraction, cover with a cologne, and touch up with APC later in
the day.
When I spend time with my special girl, I may or may not increase the doses. I only wear Amouage Dia
when I plan to be with her. Otherwise I'll wear Jaipur or Creed. The Jaipur and Creed are almost gone and I'm not
sure I want to replenish my supply. I am thinking of switching to APC as the cover (I would like to know what the
fragrance oil in the APC is).
Once in a while, when I want to relive the glory days, I add some Chikara to the
mix.
Unless my girl decides she and I are not going to happen, I am probably graduating into the
solid-and-steady-relationship class of pheromone users.
Of course, I still wear them at work. I'm now in a new
office environment, but most of the women are older and married so it doesn't really matter to me. I get along with
every one and do my best to stay light-hearted. But I am getting tired of people looking at my girlfriend's picture
(on my desk) and asking, "Is that your daughter?"
I am 46 (most people still guess 35) and she is about to turn
25.
She is a very traditional Vietnamese girl. Extremely traditional. I've known her about 2 years and it's
only the last few months that she has started opening up to me in a romantic fashion (though now she says I am going
too fast -- so that is another reason I have backed off on the pheromones, as they make her really, really excited
and anxious when I OD).
This is only the second "chaperoned" relationship I've ever been involved in. It's a
challenge to keep the sexual tension going when I know nothing is going to happen any time soon.
Probably more
than you wanted to know, but I wanted you to understand why I have backed off on the pheromones. It's not a case of
"less is more" but a case of "less is necessary to stay in the game".

Wow. That's a
sloooooooowwwwww relationship...
OK, I added 1 drop of EW to the mix I mentioned above, and now it doesn't smell
so good anymore after the "blooming". I have to apply it 30 minutes ahead of timenow so I don't smell like I just
got laid by a cheese monster. But so far, that drop of EW seems to be having a really nice effect on the ladies. I
have seen a lot more comfort, openness, and even a sexual hit from my gf.
The combination of TE and EW seems to
result in a sort of simple acceptance of my dominant status, even if I'm not trying to come across as alpha or
dominating. Very interesting... I just wish I didn't have to apply 30 minutes in advance, or cover with another
blast of cologne otherwise.

Slow seems like quicker than molasses with this girl, and compared to
my past relationships this is definitely the slowest. And for all I know, this one may not go anywhere.

Where are you spraying? Maybe you
are concentrating too much in one region. It's not like the pheromones have to go on any one part of your body.
