Pheromones and objects?

[jose]

A question to Bruce or anybody out there, can Pheromones be put on objects like car seat leather, business cards, letters? How long will the Pheromones last? [img]images/icons/smile.gif[/img]

Hi,
Oh yes they can and they last a lot longer too.

Wonder if putting say a spray of Edge in a used car could improve the chances of a sale.

This actually sounds like one of the earlier studies of androstenone. It involved spraying a chair in a room and seing what if any effects it had on different people who happened to be in the room. It showed there was a slight statistical preference for women to sit near or in the chair and men to avoid the chair altogehter. Not exactly scientific since there\'s no way to guarentee a non-biased sample in this case - but it helps convince me although that it can attract women and repel men if sprayed in proper amounts on inanimate non-threatening objects such as a chair in a lobby.

Not a bad idea. But if the car stinks too bad for some reason, the pheros might not be able to compensate.
In fact this type of test has been carried out by scientists already and the results were good overall. I would maybe go for a phero prod that is a) a bit cheaper and b) has a pleasant fragrance. And then it´s also a Q of where and how to apply the stuff inside. But if the car is in a good condition and not dodgy or anything I reckon it ought to be worth a try.
