    Finally received my bottle of

    pheros after a long long wait. As expected...Pheros delivers. Found the scent to have a very calming effect Kudos

    to DrSmellThis. Didn't receive any notes etc with the bottle though.

    My biggest gripe is that during shipment

    the cap of the bottle was not closed properly so it appears that 2/3rd of pheros leaked out during transit (unless

    the concentrate is being shipped with 1/3rd filled up bottle - which I doubt as Dr mentioned the contents to be 18

    ml in one of his earlier posts).

    Needless to say find myself a little pi**ed. Am hoping Bruce would replace

    this.

    it didn't leak, that's how the

    concentrate is.

    So the concentrate is just

    around 5 ml or so...whereas the cologne is around 15 ml.

    Any ideas on how to dilute the concentrate. Would

    concentrate be too strong if applied directly ?

    Gm is right, the concentrate

    bottles contain less volume in the same size bottle, no worries.

    I've used the concentrate without diluting it,

    but you should apply a little less. It wears well but of course is more costly to wear in concentrated form.

    I

    think there is an open question about diluting instructions being included with the concentrate. Doc and/or Bruce

    will have to weigh in on this question.

    Default *Pheros* Specs

    *

    Concentrates
    are 7ml, while the regular colognes are 18ml, accurate to within a couple drops,

    erring on the side of overfill..

    As the leaflets say, you just mix in 11ml distilled H2O to make cologne from

    concentrate.
    That step, of course, is entirely optional.

    * I'm sorry you didn't get a leaflet. Perhaps

    someone should try ordering with "please include leaflet?" in the comment section. Obviously, though, Bruce and

    Tammy are free to sell them however they see best to.

    * My opinion is that it is highly unlikely that any lid

    would be loose when it arrived at your door. That is because I double checked each and every lid for tight fit

    before shipping. I tried to tighten them just the right amount, as tight as possible without damaging the threads

    inside the lid.

    Just throwing that out there, though I think you understand now about the concentrates not being

    filled with water like the regular version.

    I got a leaflet with my order.

    Check the packaging and make sure it did not come off. Its only held by a rubber band and may have gotten stuck on

    the bubble wrap.

    Doc, your penmanship is terrible! j/k of course, your sig may make me some serious money some

    day...

    Poor Doc. He steps to the

    podium victorious and his fans complain about a speck of lint on his shirt.

    You can ignore the riff-raff Doc...

    BTW, I really like Pheros, Doc! Great stuff.

    Another well deserved fan Doc!

    (who just happens to agree with me and Mobes).

    Make sure and let us know any reports Robby, how are

    you using it?

    Welcome to the forum!

    Ah, here is the key to it all... They actually told me they must be giving a

    doctorate to the right person for that very reason.

    I've always stubbornly defended my penmanship as entirely

    legible, and thought it looked downright musical in its rhythm. Every other human being in my life has found it to

    be bad, like you guys, often using the words "horrible" or "terrible". But you know what?

    THE WORLD CAN TAKE A

    BOTTLE FULL OF CHILL PILLS! IN FACT, IF I WASN'T SO ARTHRITIC WRITING SCRIPS FOR CHILL PILLS FOR YOU PEOPLE, WE

    WOULDN'T BE HAVING THIS DISCUSSION!

    For the record, I got Cs in penmanship. That is average, last I checked.

    Guys i just ordered the

    Pheros off the website. I wanted to know if the concentrate was still available. I meant if its not then im going to

    order 2 more bottles, cuz i know how its like to have a scent that you cherish and only have soo little that it can

    only be used on speical occasions.

    I believe the concentrate was made to order,

    meaning if you didn't order any, there probably wasn't any made to accommodate you. It was also made long enough

    ago that any extra is probably already used up. Of course, this is all speculation.

    Pretty much, although Doc has mentioned that he "prepped" the water with some other

    scents, or maybe the same scents, so I'm not entirely sure. Basically it's the same amount of product as the

    concentrate filled the rest of the way with water.

    I did, I ordered the non concentrate. I LOVE the smell, but because I could only afford one

    bottle, I don't use it often. I normally use Armani Code as a cover, and sometimes I'll add a bit of Pheros to

    it, it blends quite nicely. If there's still more available when I have more money I'll be placing another

    order.

    Actually I haven't been on the scene much lately because of money, I'm on a bit of a finance induced

    break from women . Although my efforts at a break may have been thwarted...

    I received a bottle of the

    Pheros concentrate almost a month ago. I just specified in the order comments that I wanted the concentrate if it

    was still available.

    I'm thinking about trying for another bottle or two of it come the next payday. It smells

    great and would really suck to run out of it.

    I'll have to try it with the Armani Code and see how it smells.

    I've just mixed it so far with Old Spice as mentioned by another poster.
    If I'm the rubber and your the glue..then I'd probably get some, and you'd just be sticky

    If anyone has a question about

    Pheros availability, the best thing to do is call Tammy at the L-S Store. She'll be able to tell you if any

    concentrate is still available, or the regular version for that matter.

    I put on about 3 dabs this

    morning, on my forearms. You can still smell it but not the same as it smelled this morning. Remember that your nose

    is going to get numb to it if you are smelling it all day. Ask somebody else, female preferably, if they can smell

    it on your neck.

    Thanks for the feedback.



    And thanks idesign and Bel, for the customer service assistance. I haven't replied because I am travelling, with

    limited access to computers, not having entered the age of laptops (not commenting on the kind strippers

    provide...).

    My personal opinion is that the perfume mellowed with age a tiny bit more than I would have

    preferred, in terms of the top end espcially. There is still a fairly strong wood note in the middle. I tried to

    correct for that, but with an organic product you are subject to some whims of nature and limitations in the skills

    of the perfumer.

    However, I find the staying power per se is deceptively long. You sort of think it

    isn't lasting but you end up being able to smell it many hours later, and sometimes into the next day. In some

    sense, it even can last longer than many other scents, especially natural scents which lack chemical fixatives. Its

    staying power is longer than virtually every scent you'll find with authentic essential oil mixes in health stores

    or gift boutiques, for example.

    More specifically, in my experience there is sort of a floor effect where it

    doesn't fade past a certain point, and even gets sort of a "second life" which can suprise you.

    Again, this is

    just my experience. If I make another product for Love-scent, I will pay even more attention to these issues and try

    to improve.

    Bel's right, if you're

    applying it to your neck, the scent is drifting up to your nose continually, and you'll not smell it after a while.

    I prefer applying it in several places, just like pheromones, as sort of a "full signature", if that makes any

    sense.

    For me, that strong woody "middle" itself lasts more than 2 hrs, and the far drydown lasts well into the

    day or night. Like Doc, I catch whiffs of it the next morning sometimes.

    Try applying a little more, and wear it

    on your wrists or the top of your hands for an experiment.
