The Short Fat Guy Experiment

[gabe1970]

Hi Guys,
I spent time with a woman who is extremly sensitive, allergic to most fragrances today. I

forgot about her allergies - I was wearing the PI/APC oil combo (1 drop/wrist and some on each side of my neck).

She smelled it from about 5-10 feet away and it made her sneeze. After about 10 minutes she stopped sneezing and

seemed to be warming up to me when I left. Nothing else to report, but I would like advice on how you guys

would blend any combination of the following products, which I just bought:

New Pheromone Additive for

Men
4 Perception sample packets
SOE gel packs for men
Alter Ego gel packs for men
Edge gel packs for

men

Oh, and I've started reading basenotes.com, looking for an unusual cover scent. Leaning towards

M7 by Yves Saint Laurent. I'm going to have to order M7 online, can't find it at Hechts or

Nordstroms. Where do you guys buy your cologne? I haven't bought any in years - but if I remember right,

Escada smelled pretty good on me. Anyhow - I'm also soliciting suggestions on what else I could mix with NPA,

or a ratio of cologne to NPA - other than Gegogi's 5:1 concoction? I plan on trying that first. Anyone

else?

Gabe,

Great resource I found can

be looked at

here:
[URL="http://pherolibrary.com/guide/cookbook/cbpage3.htm"]http://pherolibrary.com/guide/cookbook/cbpage3.htm[

/URL]

It's the 3rd chapter and lists the milligram per milliliter ratio and combos. Great resource guide for

mixes.

For NPA and SOE gel, it lists:

1 dab of NPA to half a gel packet of SoE. Another NPA/SOE (roll-on)

ratio is 7/1 SOE/NPA. As for the other gels, I'm not sure.

Thanks, I did read through the

cookbook but must have overlooked that combo. Anyone have their own "recipes" for the products I listed?

Gabe I think M7 would be a terrific

cologne for a guy your age. I own it and save it for fall,winter and early spring. Of course, I have over two

hundred fragrances in my collection. Basenotes is an excellent place to learn and study.

As far as combos,

there are NO shortcuts. You have to do the experiments yourself. Mixes that work for Joe Blow may not work at all

for you, and can even make matters worse. Be wary of all these dudes who are mix gurus, many are just on ego trips.

You will be much better off doing your own trial and error, both with mones and fragrance.

these dudes who are mix gurus, many are just on ego trips.

Thanks, I just recently figured that

out but there are little pearls of wisdom here and there, and I'm looking for useful advice - if I don't

believe it, I'll just disregard (or test) what I've read. And I'll post my results as accurately as possible

here, so that nobody else will have to repeat my mistakes. Having said that, I'm going for the "Full-Monty"

tomorrow, when I get the pheromones....

I am going to stay away from this damned computer monitor, and go out for

the evening - I'll try:
1 dab of NPA
1/3 pack of AE
1/2 SOE gel pack

I think that's the cookbook ratio of

NPA to AE combined with the recipe for an AE/SOE combo. I'll start there and make my usual "rounds" around town

and try to start a few conversations just to see if people respond in an unusual fashion.

Since I don't have

the M7 yet and don't want to invest in something ordinary, I'll have to go with my cheap axe spray as a cover

tomorrow but will try the M7 next week.

Sounds like a plan. The Axe should be sufficent, since the AE and SOE carry plenty of scent. You

should probably carry a small vial of fragrance, since the "AXE" effect is not too long lasting and the NPA and SOE

can get somewhat rank after a few hours.
