    I wear Dia, which I get the most

    compliments on. The most recent was "exquisite".

    The Creed I have is Imperial. It also has elicited some

    compliments.

    I wish Amouage made a smaller size of their fragrences like Creed does, it would allow us to own

    more than one scent.

    Ok, i've just recieved my

    samples. I haven't tried them on yet, but my impressions just from sniffing the bottles are...

    Gold smells

    like perfume that someone of more advanced age than myself would wear!

    Dia smells lighter and fresher. I think

    i'll try this one first.

    Ceil also smells light and fresh.

    Silver smells a bit too old for me too.



    None of them strike me as amazing, but I'll try them out none the less.

    In the end I decided to try

    Gold instead without any additional 'mones.

    One of my male house mates said it smelt ok when asked, a female

    house mate said it was ok but my Coolwater and Issey were better. Anyway, you always get funny results when you ask

    people what things smell like, or I do at least! So I decided just to wear it around people and see what they said.



    The first comment came from a male friend of mine whilst we were going to buy a pizza! HE said I smelt like

    pampers, which i'm guessing has something to do with the babypowder smell!

    Nobody else commented, but after

    watching a DVD with this friend and three other girls, I noticed that the girlies hang around in my room way after

    the film had finished. Im not intersted in any of them but it was a little unexpected that they stayed. Still, this

    could have easily have happened if I was wearing nothing, so it would be going overboard a little to attribute this

    to the Amourage.

    While wearing Dia to work, I've had

    girls sniff the air near me and say "Are you wearing cologne?" with strage looks on their faces. I wear cologne

    almost everyday, so this struck me as odd. The only other product that I get continuously complimented on is A*Men

    (which is an amazing scent for a low price.)

    Wore Amourage Gold today

    again... to Burger King!

    A classy joint for a classy scent.

    Anyway, I went along with five girls,

    and one guy. I enjoyed a delightful Bacon-Double Cheeseburger Meal with Coke and Large Onion Rings.

    And.....



    Nothing.

    No remarks about my scent, and nothing resembling a hit, in fact I could even say I was getting

    slightly less attention than normal.

    Maybe i'll try it with 'mones.

    don't expect reactions any more

    obvious than you get with your own natural mones or sweat.

    A fast food place like Burger is

    loaded with scents from hot grease to old food. I doubt girls would want to do much sniffing in a place like

    that.

    I was just testing to see how

    it worked on its own. I decided to try this as DrSmellThis said...

    I would pick Amouage, no question,

    over any pheromone. For one thing, the animal fixatives have hundreds of pheromones already in them.
    I

    didn't expect a big reaction, but it was worth checking if it gave hits on its own. I know Burger King wasn't

    exactly the greatest testing ground for the world's most valuable perfume, but I wanted to try it out as soon as I

    could!

    DST has a holistic approach to moning,

    btw, trying to get a complete profile. This is what amouage GOLD and Pheros is good for, because so few synthetic

    mones are available of the total makeup of pheromones that exist.

    However, any natural substance with

    pheromones and pheromone analogs will not have them in high concentrations like the products we buy, which is

    basically a carrier and the mone molecules themselves. Thus, you will llikely not get the visible reactions that

    such products draw, and rather, will get the reactions that you get from your own natural mones and

    sweat.

    That is not to say that they don't work - we know our own natural mones have an affect on people but

    we usually can't tell, nor can they usually even tell. Natural perfumes, especially those containing animal

    products which are rich with pheromones (just know that this statement doesn't necessarily relate to

    concentration), are great for complementing the heavy mone dosages we apply on ourselves of specific

    synthetic pheromone products.

    Just got my samples, anyone have

    together?

    Ohh yeah small tip, the GOld

    carries a large amount of natural musks but most youngins dont like the smell and end up with Dia. Try mixing both

    at 1:1 or 2:1 Gold to Dia. You get the natural pheros of Gold with the Dia smell.

    I think a few dabs of Pheros or AE goes

    well with either Dia or Gold.
    I'm going to try the AE on the undershirt method.

    So what -mones work the best with

    Dia? AE, Chikara, NPA, etc?

    I just got my samples today, and was not that greatly impressed at first. Gold

    seems really powdery. Tommorow I think I'm going to wear NPA and Dia. Maybe a drop of AE on my wrists to cover up

    the NPA. Suggestions? Thinking 2 sprays of Dia, then a one mid day.

    Cool

    DrSmellThis, which Amouage ladies

    fragrance would you say is the best in terms of -mone content (with respect to the ingredients you quoted in your

    first post on this perfume) i.e. is it ladies Amouage Gold, Ciel ladies, Dia ladies, Esprit D'Amouage or Eau

    D'Amouage ?

    Also, I checked the Amouage website and in their 'Ingredients Map' page they don't list

    anything about civet or deer musk. Do the ladies Amouage fragrances contain these ingredients ? if so, which ones,

    and are these particular ingredients designed to attract men or women ?

    I'd estimate the Gold has the

    highest analog -mone content of the Amouage line. They won't always discuss the ingredients, as is the case with

    most perfumeries.

    * Thanks, bjf. I agree with most of what you say, except that the levels of analog -mones in the

    new Pheros seem quite high enough to make an impact on their own. If you want to test this, open up a bottle

    and smell deeply (of course, I am not recommending 'huffing' it.). Smell it for a while. You should notice a

    change in mood and physical feelings pretty quickly. You can demonstrate it with your friends too. This is not to

    say that you'd prefer to wear Pheros by itself without synthetic pheromones (although I often do exactly

    this on my anti-buildup 'off days', as it is 'OD safe'.).

    * And in all fairness to Amouage, I don't think

    wearing it once around a bunch of kids in Burger King is a fair test. Try it at a cocktail party with a bunch of

    divorced women, a symphony, a classy bar, or a ballroom dance. Plus, Amouage has to be 'your style', and won't

    have the best perfume for every person. What I said, with implications, was that I'd prefer it over any single

    synthetic pheromone used alone, such as PI -- assuming it works for you as a scent.

    Doc, I haven't tried the new Pheros,

    only have the old, so I can't form an opinion on your claims, but I hope to be able to do so some day.

    I disliked the smell of Gold as

    its 2 powdery, but mixed with Dia, is does smell way better and every now and then I catch that none like smell

    coming from it. Im pretty sure its gold cause i didnt catch is when wearing dia only. Just taht got me great hits so

    Pheros is next on the list. Does anybody know how many bottles are left???? Should I just stock up?

    I totally

    agree!

    I have Dia which I love, but I also have Creed Imperial.

    Imperial is an awsome daytime scent.

    It's fresh but it also has a lot of well balanced complexity that puts it in a similar class as Amouage. And the

    nice thing about Creed is they have smaller sizes of their scents, so you don't have to spend $200 to get a world

    class scent!

    have you guys tried REALM. I

    personally love the smell and the way it makes me feel.

    I tried Realm, but I didn't

    like the scent so I eventually stopped wearing it. It had no effect on me at all or others around me...at least

    nothing obvious.

    I tried Realm as well. Went

    through half a bottle and that is a lot. Did not do one thing for me. When I tried pharomones, however, I did

    notice a reaction in many cases. I also did not like the way Realm smelled after the basic scent wore off....it had

    that musky body odor smell. While I did not get any compliments from Realm, I have gotten compliments for AE.

    I just bought

    Strange, cant find this on the

    Amouage website at all...

    The ad say "Exclusively at Parfums Raffy" but I would assume that Amouage

    themselves would show it on their site.

    This article showed up in the October 30, 2005

    issue of the Times of Oman (online).

    It looks like "Arcus" is just the first of a whole new line of men's

    products coming from Amouage.
