View Full Version : Is my SOE spoiled?

I had not used
mones for some time. One day I decided to apply some SOE, but noticed that it is quite fuzzy. It has always been
pretty transparent before. Does it mean it is spoiled? How? Why?
Fortunately it is quite empty
anyway.

Interesting, im more interested
on how you added a photo in the forum than your question sorry... I think you might need to direct your question to
the Inventor-Manufacturer of the product, Jvkhol, inorder to get a concrete answer.
By the way, looks like
semen in a bottle, sure its not a sperm donar vial? I am joking...

Premizen,
How does it smell? Where have you been
storing it.
No jokes about friction and heat for those that understand... ;)

I have stored it in my drawer
together with all my other products (10+) of which SOE is the only one that seems a bit "damaged".
I would not
say there is too much heat in my drawer. No direct sunlight on it or anything.
It smells like alcohol. The smell
has not changed. It is the unscented version of SOE, by the way.

Does anyone else notice that SOE
seems to not work as well once it gets down to the last bit of it? I don't know if its all in my head or what.

Looks like contamination from
application. As you roll the product onto your body you quickly and surely introduce all matter of contaminates to
the bottle: skin cells, sweat, hairs, bacteria, etc. My experience is the bottle always looks like your picture
50-75% through the bottle.
Now I load a limited amount of SOE in an empty bottle for daily use, refilling as
needed. That way I don't contaminate the mothership.

Thats what I was suspecting as well.
I do like the idea of the empty roll top bottle though

So do the contaminates
neutralize the pheromones? At least it seemed that the SOE did not work at all anymore.

I suppose that would depend on
the individual contaminate, age and amount. A large amount of highly acidic male sweat, dead skin cells and
accompanying bacteria can't be good. So it depends... It's best to keep it clean.

I have never had an SOE go like
that and I've gotten through a fair few bottles. I haven't used bottled SOEu but I doubt that makes much
difference.
I have noticed that on some occasions when I've had a new bottle of SOE and one that's nearing
emptiness, the new bottle smells better and gives me a better "vibe". This may mean that potency is slightly reduced
when nearing the end of its use, maybe from contamination.

The cloudiness is most likely
contamination with skin cells; it's probably still good. Yellow color is more likely bacterial contamination (e.g.,
overgrowth). Only bottle I've ever had go bad (e.g., yellow color) was due to leaving it in my parked vehicle over
a period of several days in the Las Vegas, Nevada summer heat. Forgot where I'd left it, of course. Probably best
to keep the bottles out of direct sunlight or more heat than room temperature.
I vaguely recall reading that
any fragrance product should be discarded after a maximum of one year. This may have been a general marketing ploy,
but it makes sense to me. Might even throw away that Old Spice I got for Christmas from my sister back in 1969
someday soon.

Especially when they sell such large bottles of the stuff at an
average of $50 a pop! Since most colognes come in sealed atomizer bottles now, I wonder if it's really a problem
anymore. I have noticed that some colognes that I put into smaller atomizers for portability sake sometime turn
color after awhile. So I only transfer a small amount, the same as Gegogi in his reference to the
"mothership."

Hmmm, maybe I should pass on that bottle of Hai Karate I found on eBay. :think:
