Thanks Doc, that means a lot to me.
BUT, you didn't answer my question.
Vis, is this a correct understanding of analog pheromones?
Yes, its amazing how scent
encompasses life and living.
There's not one of us who doesn't have a song or songs which will either bring
you to tears or make you want to take an exalted leap at the moon.
Scent can do this too, but is mostly
trivialized as a fashion accessory.
I'm not entirely sure how you think about it.
But what I call "analog pheromones" are chemically similar
or identical to human pheromones, or can trigger a relevant response in humans; but are found elsewhere, such as
somewhere in nature. I am most often refering to plant pheromones, or what we could call "phytopheromones". But
you could also consider animal musks as containing analog pheromones. Sometimes I've even referred to
pheromone-similar chemicals or human emotional/behavioral "triggers" from perfume chemistry as analog pheromones.
So it just means a substance that is like a human pheromone without being the actual pheromones on the human
skin.
Analog pheromones have also been distinguished from chemically identical human pheromones that are
synthesized in the laboratory; such as are sold here. This is the an important distinction to keep in mind for
our purposes.
The "fuzzy" part is that I've considered chemically identical pheromones from plants as analog,
but not lab synthesized versions of these. So androsterone from cedar, sandalwood, or celery would be an analog
pheromone, but the same thing from a lab would not, in the way I've used the term.
I hope this clarifies it.

Yeah, I just received an
email from Bruce about this. Wow, you guys went through that shipment pretty fast.
I do have more, fortunately;
but I'm in the process of moving; and the whole lab is packed away in boxes.
I'll let you all know soon, when
I get the lab set up/cleaned, and can give a more accurate time frame.
Sorry for the gap in availability. But
thanks for your interest. We'll get it to you as soon as we can.

My survey says... fresh poop is preferred overall over other brands of poop!
Sitting alone with a new creation that pleases you is satisfying, but is only fully born in the lives
of others. I think that's a tension within an artist's psyche yes?
If I design a house, a room or any space
for a client, I have the burden of knowing that they'll live in that room for years. I can use every technical and
creative skill at my disposal, but will not be satisfied with my work until the client is as pleased as I am with
the result.
Its not "art" per se, but when someone walks into that room and appreciates the accomplishment,
probably not knowing why they like it, then my work is successful. If its someone who knows and values such things,
life is better. The hours of thinking and drawing are alternatively frustrating and exhilarating.
Its
interesting how a common appreciation of creativity draws people closer. In terms of the relationship with my g/f,
we introduce each other to authors, movies, music, fragrances, etc, etc. With each new discovery there's a new
infusion of interest and growth, commonly and individually. No matter the medium, it gives us a way of relating
through the ideas and vision of others. Whether its dancing in the living room to Glenn Miller, smelling a new
perfume find we both love, or watching a movie we both hate, there is a path to intimacy.
Your appreciation of my
appreciation is a fine luxury for us both, and I'm glad we both have it.
"Homey" is an ok word, if you mean the
comfort of home. In this sense its great, giving deeper substance to attraction. OTOH, Pheros does give a great
sexy residual coating on your skin, letting her know that you're not Ozzie, and if she's Harriet she'd better let
her hair down and get a thong.

Since Phero is alcohol base, can
it be mixed with oil base perfume like Amber, & Musk? Or is it better to apply it & then cover it?
Quite honestly, I am of the opinion that DTS Pheros is a fine stand-alone that needs no other
"cover." If anything it makes a top-notch primo "cover" for other pheromones (primarily the "unscented" ones).
If you feel you want to "play" with it by adding other scents/fragrances I'd opt to apply individually. IMO you
don't have to apply all your scents/products in exactly the same places. You don't need to put one exactly on top
of the other or the like. Dab a bit here, wipe a bit there. Spread the scents around.
Also don't get too
carried away. A subtle overall scent is probably far better than one that knocks everyone over the momentyou walk
into a room. People are more likely to flee than want to be near you. Watch out for what I call "scent clash."
Something that smells great individually may reek to high heaven together. I'd look for quiet "notes" rather than a
loud "symphony."
And lastly, just like pheromones, your cologne is only a very small part of how you will be
judged/perceived. There are more important things.
My opinions.
The opposite of love isn't hate.
It's apathy.
RBT, thank you for your advises,
I will keep them in mind.

While we were talking about
Phero, it seems that the stock is all gone.
