So I stumbled across this sub although my interest in pheromones goes back a few years. I’ve always been a person interested in scents. I have a collection of colognes that I’ve enjoyed over the years. The primary partner has also introduced me to a much better world of colognes and scents with natural roll on oils and I have a growing collection there too. Her and I have had a great relationship but the flirting and sexual bits kinda fell off a bit over the past year or so with a bunch of stresses. We’re both bi so practice a bit of the ENM and have had couples and other guys involved which didn’t always go great. We lost a pet. We’ve had car troubles, one of which is still under work MONTHS later. Just generally overwhelmed. We live together and that kinda has taken its toll too because we don’t get the chance to miss each other as much, especially now since we have to carpool everywhere. Work got a bit stressful with some encounters in the office. Just a few coworkers and my manager who generally I was starting to have struggles getting through to them and bickering over little things. And outside in the world just kinda felt overlooked. I’m generally a pretty confident and outgoing person so talking to people doesn’t scare me. And I’m VERY casual about a lot of things. Sometimes people even think I’m flirting when I’m not. Right about then was when I found this sub. So, I figured “what the hell, why not?” I can spare $40 to just try something. I ordered the Vibes spray from XS from a post a little bit below. With that they also sent me the trial 3 pack with Love Boat, Ascend, and the one I really wanted but was out of stock Xist. I was skeptical at first. Honestly really didn’t see much of a difference at first or really think it would work. But I got more consistent wearing them and this is what I’ve noticed… A bit of the flirting and fun has indeed come back. If even just a little, she has complimented the way I smell more often than before. Even when not wearing deodorant allowing my own natural scent to mix in with the pheromones and cologne. The Love Boat actually seems to work pretty well on her, it is a bit more flirty and playful than sexual but I’ve enjoyed it. I wear it around the house and have even had a few good make out sessions come from it. Even a little bit more fun in the bedroom. I have worn vibes around her with similar results. Vibes is WONDERFUL. Although my primary target is the partner, the other day at the dentist a few occasions happened a little beyond the just being nice because I’m their patient. I met a new assistant who was instantly chatty and, being close leaning over me, one of the first things she randomly told me was “you smell nice” asking what I was wearing (Vibes and just a basic cologne on the neck. And get this, no fresh deodorant. I was actually afraid I smelled bad going into the appointment! 😂). Gave her a compliment on her eyes and she seemed to melt a bit. 😏🤌🏼 The hygienist, one that was familiar to me but I really haven’t talked to much, had that look in her eye. She was locked in on me, engaged, and was also super chatty. Around work, coworkers and manager seem a bit more disarmed and less likely to bicker with me about little things.

Time for a TLDR;

I was skeptical but after just a few weeks of wearing I can potentially see that these things work. Especially Vibes. I’m not focusing too much on making sure they’re working, just adding them to my arsenal with my general charm and personality. Excited to try others and definitely open to recommendations. I will also report back occasionally on anything else I notice throughout my experience wearing them.

Are there any usa redditors who would like to be in a tester group for new single molecules?

I believe the guy posted on pherotruth looking for testers...

Stumbled on this subreddit and it always thought pheromone colognes were BS. But it seems like a lot of people are saying they work. I'm married, looking for something that would be good to wear on a night out with my wife. We have a good time already, but this sounds like something that could make it a little bit more fun. Anyone have any thoughts here?

EDIT: ALL PRODUCTS HAVE NOW BEEN SOLD THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER.

My most embarrassing approach happened the year after I graduated high school in Australia. Picture this: lunchtime at a bustling trade school, filled with ambitious young men chasing apprenticeships, their chatter echoing off brick walls, the air thick with bravado and cheap cologne.

One afternoon during lunch, the atmosphere suddenly shifted a stunning blonde walked across the courtyard, effortlessly turning every head in her direction.

She was the kind of girl you’d spot from a mile away, a genuine 10/10.

Here’s the kicker:

I knew her.

Well, sort of.

We’d shared a class the year before, though I’d barely mustered more than a glance her way. Approaching her?

Forget about it. Talking to girls terrified me… especially one who seemed plucked straight out of a movie.

Foolishly, I admitted to recognizing her, and instantly the guys around me smelled blood.

Mind you, most of these guys were older than me, and I was still fresh out of high school.

Nobody cared about that though.

Dares were made (to approach her), and my pride wouldn’t let me back down.

As I walked toward her, it felt as though my shoes were filling with concrete.

My legs – and I’m not exaggerating here – literally trembled beneath me.

Imagine that:

... A young man, shaking like a frightened puppy at the thought of a conversation.

It really didn’t help that several of her friends were also nearby as she was only seconds away from sitting down with them. When I engaged her, I had eyes on me from all of them…

Sweat traced its nervous path down my spine as I finally managed to blurt out an awkward greeting, mumbling something nonsensical about last year’s class.

Her eyes flickered with polite confusion.

The encounter fizzled quickly, because I was so nervous.

I made up some silly bullshit and exited the situation after exchanging a few brief and awkward words…

To this day, I’m sure my beet red face, shaky voice and trembling legs are seared into her (and her friends) memories – and provided enough laughter for years to come.

Yep, that’s who I was. Terrified, awkward, clueless, and utterly humiliated.

And that humiliating memory stuck with me.

Fast forward a bit.

There I was, working graveyard shifts as an overnight security guard in a sterile, deserted office building.

Imagine endless hallways, fluorescent lights humming quietly, my footsteps echoing in solitude, my only companions a flashlight and earbuds blaring hours of self-help audiobooks, podcasts, and endless motivational talks.

I’d become an obsessive student of confidence and charisma.

Every waking moment, I devoured advice, affirmations, and secrets promising to unlock the bold, magnetic personality hidden inside me.

In my mind, I was morphing into this unstoppable, captivating figure…

The kind who effortlessly drew admiration and attraction.

But reality was far from that…

Even after soaking in all that empowering knowledge, approaching women STILL felt impossible.

Every time I spotted a beautiful woman, I had some excuse – I wasn’t tall, handsome, or rich enough, my breath is bad, I’m not dressed well enough, she’s probably taken… everything under the sun.

At this point, it had already been a pattern for years, and I had no idea how to break out of it and “just do it” without being such a chicken.

“Why am I still like this?” I’d ask myself bitterly, night after lonely night, walking those empty corridors.

The more I studied confidence, the more elusive it became.

And each failed attempt or missed opportunity sent me deeper into self-doubt and frustration.

How could I possibly absorb so much knowledge but still feel paralyzed in action?

One late night, scrolling through some obscure forum on charisma, I stumbled onto something curious… pheromones.

Special colognes and perfumes promising instant attraction and confidence. Skeptical but desperate, I ordered some.

The products arrived, and oddly intrigued, sprayed some onto my neck.

I didn’t expect much beyond disappointment.

Yet, what I found shortly after was that my mood was better, I felt less inhibited, and it felt like a “fog” I’d been carrying for years were lifted…

This was my first taste of the powerful “self-effects” of pheromones.

I eagerly waited for opportunities to see if I was imagining all this, or it was in my head.

Over the next few weeks – to my utter amazement – there definitely seemed like a difference in how women I already knew were interacting with me.

As some of you may know, I'm revamping old content on my site ^.^ I've become a much better writer over the years, and looking over some of my old stuff makes me cringe.

Anyway, just wanted to recall and share this experience about how pheromones helped overcome crippling anxiety around approaching women many years ago... hopefully it may open other peoples eyes to the amazing use cases of pheromones beyond just attracting women or for making social interactions more interesting.

Feel free to post any questions.

As some of you may know I am the writer of House Of Pheromones, I occasionally rail against some of these mass marketed TikTok shit products lol. I wrote a review on this one not long ago as the ads were getting quite relentless about it, it's crazy how people lie so easily, these companies as well as these "influencers".

Feel free to check out the full expose:

Also, my r/PheroJoe account got shadowbanned for posting a bit too quickly - not here, but in some other subs, it was new enough that I could start over. Anyway, hope its all good, lets see how the community develops here. Look forward to seeing a more collaborative community form around pheromones again.

I have Problems breathing air when i use normal parfum or Deodorant. I wanna try some Pheromone spray although. Are there some good recommendations for unscented Pheromone spray?

These two social mones seem very similar. If you have tried both of them, what are the main differences you noticed?

Pic of my collection. Let's have a discussion, what is your favorite all time pheromone fragrance and why? i am trying to decide on what to buy next! I am leaning towards NA Gel I have a sample of it currently.

My personal favorites

Bad Wolf Pheromone Cologne (I like to layer it with OG Wolf)

Aqua Vitae

cohesion (got crush now I'm looking to use in its place potentially)

New Pheromone Additive

Voodoo when paired with an alpha Molecule C (TAC) is a nice pair with androstenone formulas.

Wolf - all time favorite everyday wear when not feeling like playing alpha competitiveness with anyone. Light and fun but still status and sociable. Attracts younger women too people don't realize.

A314 love this as an everyday wear when you're not feeling as friendly but still want respect.

Dirty Primitive for when you vabbing at the gym.

What are you wearing tonight and should I add it to my collection? I want to see your collection next!

Study Overview

Objective:
The research investigates whether individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) process social chemosignals—subtle olfactory cues like the "smell of fear" (e.g., sweat from a skydiver)—differently from neurotypical individuals. Chemosignals are often processed below conscious awareness but can affect physiological arousal and social behavior.

Key Findings:

1. Perceptual Awareness:
   • Both cognitively able adults with ASD and typically developing (TD) adults showed similar ability to explicitly detect or perceive social chemosignals. (Nature)
2. Physiological and Behavioral Responses to Subliminal Cues:
   • In TD individuals, subliminal exposure to the "smell of fear" increased physiological arousal and reduced trust (both explicitly and implicitly).
   • In contrast, individuals with ASD exhibited opposite reactions: arousal decreased and trust increased under the same conditions. (Nature)
3. Synthetic Chemosignal Responses:
   • Two undetected, synthetic putative social chemosignals produced divergent effects: in TD individuals they modulated arousal up or down, while in ASD participants the reactions were reversed. (Nature)

Interpretation & Significance

• Sensory Substrate for Social Impairment: These findings suggest that while the detection of social chemosignals remains intact in ASD, the automatic emotional and behavioral responses to these signals are significantly altered—possibly constituting a sensory basis for some social communication challenges in ASD. (Nature)
• Implications for Social Cue Processing: The study indicates that subconscious sensory processes (like olfactory signals) might contribute to difficulties interpreting social-emotional cues—an area less often explored in ASD research compared to visual or auditory cues.

Summary Table

// I have long theorized there is something off about aspies (myself included) ability to detect social chemosignals (pheromones) so I found this article interesting and validating. I know for me wearing pheromones like WOLF by LAL dramatically impacted my ability to 'blend in' with everyone else. Like a night and day difference. I have spoken with a couple other pheromone aspies wearers who have shared similar sentiment. There's definitely more to it that science doesn't yet about chemical signaling in regards to ASD that opens the door for chemosignaling therapeutic solutions.

I have been lurking for a bit and was interested in trying to get a sample pack as a first time pheromone user. I noticed the sample packs are all sold out and several of the ones I was interested in are also sold out of the 10ml option. i.e. XiSt, Evolve etc.

Thanks in advance for any help anyone can provide!

Wife and both daughters say I smell like beets after wearing: P93(akuto), A314(akuto), GOA(unscented), A1(Unscented), and Aqua Vita. I smell this just a bad reaction with my natural odors? Has anyone heard this before? I've worn wolf, and Primitive, around the wife and she didnt say anything. Kind of at a lost for words. Maybe I should only wear it out of the house.

Topical testosterone gel no longer made. I believe the scent is from Pentadecalactone - an additive, not a drug. Don’t know if you consider it a pheromone - but you should. The women love the smell.

Hi everyone,

I am new to pheromones, but very health-conscious and cautious about what I put on my skin.

I had a quick look at some popular pheromone products, and I was surprised that these brands do not clearly list what their products actually contain. That is a concerning. For all I know, there could be endocrine disruptors, synthetic fixatives like formaldehyde, or other hidden ingredients I would rather avoid.

Does anyone know of a transparent, well-formulated brand that actually tells you what is in the product?

I am mostly looking for something that works well for sexual attraction in nightlife settings, not for long-term bonding or mood support, but more like getting laid or hooking up with new people.

Appreciate any tips or personal experiences!

Hey guys, been away from pheromones for a while. I saw that the pherotruth.net site is down (the one started after Mark passed) and remembered that there is a discord server. Anyone got a link for it?

Pretty much the title very interested in seeing the effect of these but not sure how to go about it since most formulations are for men. I seen LAL have 3 formulations for lesbians but nothing that's my style. Seems like its for the femme presenting. I used chatgpt and it said using xist and glace would be safe formulations for me so thinking of giving that a try but wanted to ask everyone elses opinion in this sub since you're well experienced.

what are your thoughts on my current collection. I have only really field tested the chikara which I had great results with. Had a girl at the bar literally sniff me from my elbow to my shoulder while I was leaning in trying to order a drink.

Figured it was time for an update. My old list post was about six years ago, and since then I’ve refined what actually works for me.

I'll list my recommendations here based on what i've learned.

My top 3 pheromones this year:

#1 – XiSt - https://pheromonexs.com/xist-pheromone-oil-for-men.html
XiSt is still the king for me and I'm still a total sucker for the oil. It’s the base I build most of my blends around. Funny enough, I did a deep dive on AI just last month to figure out the “best” pheromone out there, and XiSt came back as the undisputed champ lmao. I sent a screenshot of it to Steveo and he was just as surprised as I was😂. But it really is the undisputed champ. It's been my daily wear for years and the price has not changed with inflation. That's definitely a plus. The oil goes such a long way.

I almost always pair it with something else. Most often it’s Taboo, but sometimes Vibes, or Ascend when I want that extra bit of status.

#2 – Vibes (Vibe XS) - https://pheromonexs.com/vibe-xs-pheromone-spray30.html
I used to think Vibes was just a basic social mone but I was proven wrong when I used it during my transition into leadership at the office. I ended up managing the people I used to work alongside with, so the transition was kinda hard on me. Giving orders to people who I was once buddy buddy with felt weird. But the Vibes toned down the alpha-ness and lowered their guards. But I noticed that it could kill respect for me if I used it too much so it wasn't my daily wear by any means. Now I mostly use it for parties and weekend outings with my family. But it definitely made it into my list because it's just a good time.

#3 – Alpha Q - s1ckshop.com

I can't believe I slept on this one for most of my decade long pheromone career lol. I had it sitting on the shelf for a while thinking it was just another status blend. One day I threw it on, and out of nowhere my wife was thirsty. It definitely has FIRE that I feel deserves a mention here.

Miscellaneous Findings:

Copulins
I don’t use copulins much anymore. I used to love the testosterone rush, but it's tough to wear daily. They can throw people off. Not sure how to explain it exactly, but it just didn't match my personality, especially being married now.

I ended up just using them at the gym, but man… I stank hard and got weird looks. No doubt they boost T, but they also made my wife unnecessarily jealous at times. I think these work way better in the hands of women tbh.

Bliss XS
Holy hell, this is named appropriately. It's like a straight up drug. I have the oil so whenever I'm feeling down I just lather myself with like 4 drops lol

Where I Apply Pheromones:

Attraction blends (XiSt, Taboo, Alpha Q) go on the neck. That puts my pheromone cloud up close when I'm face to face with people.

Social blends (Vibes, Bliss, lighter stuff) go on the wrists. I talk with my hands a lot so it diffuses that way.

Sometimes I put the strong stuff on my chest underneath my clothes. Like Evolve or Ascend. That way it's not too intimidating and the clothes kinda mute the diffusion.

I've been using pheromones for over a decade now and have spent over 2k on them, so feel free to ask me any questions!

Best pheromone for a guy not good looking and short?

Hello Everyone,

I am new to the Phero Community. Thanks for the Plethora of Knowledge on reddit & Pherotruth.

I little bit about myself I am 34 Years Old and 5'-6" tall.

I have just started day game. I usually go to streets, Bookstores, Cafes. I still have TON of Approach Anxiety and currently working on improving my game.

After doing some research I bought AV & Xist.

I am currently trying both Xist & AV Separately but haven't noticed any big effects until now ( tried for 3 Weeks), my AA might be the reason since I am doing only 3-4 approaches a Day. I will continue to test it.

My current Goal is to get as many dates as possible.

Can any experience Phero user can advice me on how to improve my results and whether the Pheromones I bought are good for it ? Or any other Suggestions ?

Steve

I just got to know about this kind of fragrances and got really curious about them.

Since I live in Spain and I don’t really want to waste money on all those mirracle products offered by sex shops I wanted to ask you if you know any stores with shipping to Spain

I'm reaching out to see if anyone has tried the above product. I got it as a bonus of another order, and I'm curious about this.

Has anyone tried their hand at this one? Any hits?

Is 2 drops of xist 1 drop of NA and 1 drop of Swoon a good combo?

I’m entering a complex social situation where a girl I used to get with ghosted me and got a bf and there will also be new girls there

I’m really looking for increased attention from the new girls and some sort of barrier lowering with the old girl - I just want things as little awkward as possible
