NPA

Smell from Bottle: Smells like an extremely strong

mix of rubbing alcohol and anesthetic (kinda reminded me of a hospital)

Self-Effects: 1 tight dab applied

under both nostrils, no cover scent. I had just woken up from a short afternoon nap when I did the application, and

it seemed to snap me out of my siesta-induced drowsiness into a state of full alertness. Also seemed to tickle the

back of my throat slightly, which faded after about 3 minutes. However, no overt feelings of aggression

materialized.

Apart from the initial burst of a slight urine smell, after 2-3 minutes, I could not smell

anything. However, my finger did still have that slight urea tinge, and smelled mildly irritating and smothering

after about 5 minutes, even after I'd washed my hands thoroughly with anti-bacterial shower cream. This definitely

needs a good cover with cologne, even on the fingers used for application.


NPA Test Number

1

Application: 2 tight dabs onto the back of my hands and rubbed into the skin in a circular

fashion until dry, 1 tight dab onto the crotch area of my jeans, both areas covered with Acqua Di

Gio

Situation: Went out for coffee with a very good female "playa" friend.

Observations: Lots

more kino than usual from her, was her usual chatty self. Nothing much out of the ordinary. The coffee session went

well. There was also a group of teenagers (18-19) who came up during coffee and asked me to take a group photo for

them, to which I obliged. Lots of thanking and appreciation all around.

Prior to meeting my friend, I went for a

fuel stop at a petrol station near her house. The male attendant was pretty chatty, yet seemed to give an impression

of being respectful, which usually isn't the case with attendants here in Singapore. We had a short chat about cars

and he seemed pleased that I was willing to talk to him.

I went inside to make payment, and there was a female

attendant (mid-20's, heavy-set, not attractive) standing beside me trying to remove some adhesive tape off of a

glass counter-top. She was making slow progress, so I offered to show her a faster way using the cutter blade she

was holding, which I did. Lots of appreciative looks and thanking from both her and the female cashier (early 50's,

traditional-looking lady), nothing out of the ordinary.

I did notice, after I'd first applied NPA and was

walking out to my car, that I felt more confident and self-assured. Again, no aggressive feelings materialized.

Maybe this would be the right dose to convey a sense of assertiveness? I don't know, more testing to follow. Plus,

I may have OD-ed on Acqua Di Gio since, in my eagerness to cover up the smell of NPA, I sprayed a full spray right

on top of each application area. Too much? I'll try to lower the doseage next time around. Now that I'm back home

(4.5 hours after NPA application), the urine smell is starting to come on stronger.

Conclusion:

Inconclusive. More testing to follow.
