I've experienced this too.
Commercial scents (mostly chemicals) behave very differently from natural scents (Pheros).
Your cologne
(chemical) and pheromones (synthetic) are probably creating some sort of a chemical wash, especially if the
fragrance is weak to begin with, or doesn't complement the NPA. Matching -mones with a cologne is a real art form
if you want to get it just right. My goal is to get a symbiosis between the cover scent and the -mone "stink", which
(I think) should not be completely masked. The good news is that the -mones work on a different level than just
scent.
Natural scents (like Pheros) have an advantage. Instead of isolating single (synthetic) chemical scent
notes, they contain all the complexity of the hundreds of constituents contained in natural scents. When blended,
these scents offer a depth and complexity that touches the deeper places of memory and emotion.
Going back to
your point, its my understanding that DST designed "Pheros" to particularly work with and complement pheromones,
musk being one of the many ingredients.
I've used Pheros to cover A7/A1/SoE/TE/AE with great success. It
works with everything, and the "funk" you talked about is always present, and I've found that women and men both
like it, and are attracted to it almost unconsciously. The "funk" is simply a very complex fragrance which matures
on the medium of your skin and compounded by whatever -mone you're wearing.
Its the subliminally expressed
ancient funk of human attraction when men and women meet. The only problem is, we've become conditioned to
chemicals, and shallowness in general.
