AnnieO,
Very true. Shockingly small
bottle. It's 2 drams, which is 7.5 milliliters, and that translates to roughly 1/4 of a fluid ounce.
But
you're not exactly going to be "splashing it on"!
At .45mg of total pheros per milliliter you're likely to
find that 2 or 3 drops will do the trick for you under normal circumstances, while occassionally kicking it up to 4
drops per application for extraordinary instances such as outdoor parties, smoke-laden clubs, etc.
Using the
accompanying dropper, which yields about 50 drops/mL, you're looking at a total of around 375 drops in a bottle,
which should work out somewhere in the vicinity of 100 total applications.
Granted, $50 looks like a lot for
such a small quantity of product, but when you think of it in terms of $0.50 per use it's a lot easier to justify
the expense.
Alter Ego for Women also
has what I personally consider to be one of the best women's fragrances that I've ever smelled, phero or
otherwise! And if you can get the targets to inhale more pheros by actually WANTING to inhale your fragrance you're
even that much further ahead of the game in getting your money's worth.

Does it make sense to buy the gel
packs instead?
It seems like it would make
sense, because for $49.95 you could purchase 38 g/ps thus giving you a total pheromone content of .13 x 38 = 4.94 mg
Pheromone. which is 1.57mg more than the 3.375mg in the bottle at the same price. PS as Mountain Jim suggests
though, there is the problem of messing around with the packs ect.
I read in one of the women's
sticky that alter ego was one of the "stinky mones" and needed a cover scent. You think it smells good Oscar? I
never tried it, but maybe I will now.
Katie,
Wow!
I see where it DOES say
that in the Women's Forum sticky, and I can only figure that it's a typo.
AE/w has a wonderfully feminine,
floral fragrance that smells fantastic, so I'm having trouble figuring out how it got listed as a "stinker", and
also why I've never noticed that before.
Oscar :)
I also love the scent of AE/w
(I have the gel packs). I was complimented on the scent today (by another woman). I usually wear AE with perfume,
but you don't need to cover it.
Question for those who have used it: AE/w comes in "tango" and "glow." Which is
"better" in your opinion?
Also, which scent are the gel packs scented with?
I love the scent also. I
have a bottle and some gel paks. The gels are convenient when traveling IMO but I felt that I got more bang for my
buck with the bottle.
I realize this is a really old thread, but I just had to add that I agree that AE is a stinker! Yes it has a pleasant fragrance added, but I can totally smell the 'mones in there and find that I have anxiety over whether or not I "stink" when I wear it. It's that fine line between smelling overwhelmingly like a perfume factory and smelling ..... yummy.
When the AE gel starts to diffuse on a hot day it is a most euphoric experience to get a whiff of the pheromone vapor as it escapes from the surface of the skin, it is a most refreshing and uplifting experience.
I noticed this for the first time on a very hot sunny morning as i was walking along, and when i arrived at my destination the air conditioning in the stadium was not working and the people sitting down were fanning themselves with the program sheet, the conditions were ideal for the diffusing of my AE gel application and i was actually getting more than a few genuine attraction hits from it which was understandable because i was the first one to get a whiff of its invigorating essence which at the time gave me a good insight as to why a good pheromone application can be a wonderful social lubricant and a genuine attraction agent....
