RE: Need Recs for Alpha Dream

When you order one or the other from Alpha Dream, you could request a sample of the other. There is no guarantee that you'd get it, but it doesn't hurt to ask. I know they have given samples to some customers especially if it is a larger order. Then you might test both and see which you like best. It is fun to mix blends as well. Alpha Dona does well with a social such as Glace.

I haven't tried the new fragrances. I have used Alfa Dona unscented and also with Alpha Dream's old fragrances. Unscented Alfa Dona has a bit of a smell to it. I've worn it without a cover scent, but most people probably wouldn't want to.
If you get it unscented, then you can spray whatever cover scent you like over it. But, for me having the fragrance mixed in saves me from having to cover the scent if I reapply when I'm out and about. I like to bring my to go bottles with me to concerts and parties, so it is quicker and easier to just have Alfa Dream take care of the cover scent for me.
I hear the new fragrances they have are pretty good. The girls all seem to like the jasmine fragrance, and the tangerine dream sounds delicious. But if you already have a perfume you love, unscented works fine.

I am honestly very flirty and friendly with women. When I used to wear Instant Sexiness B to work, I did hear that there were plenty of women talking about me behind me back- really petty shit.
But, the women I worked with directly in my office were super sweet. They would style my hair while I was processing paper work. We would talk for days and days and have wonderful, sweet, meaningful conversations. We would go out together, shop, get pedicures, drink, play pool, I'd sleep over... so this was my experience with Instant Sexiness/A and Instant Sexiness/B... never directly had bad reactions from women...
but like I said, I would flirt with them, say up-lifting and encouraging things to them, be a true friend to them...
I've always been this way, so that probably effects the way women react to me. Long before I ever even considered wearing mones, my girlfriends always would tell me how much they liked me.
I have heard of women reacting badly to cops, but I have never experienced it. Quite the opposite. I wore Laid the other day, which also contains cops made by Chris at Alpha Dream (buffered brilliantly with other pheromones)- had a lady hit on me while I was with my husband.
Halo often wears cops around women and has no problem.
Expectations will effect my facial expressions and posture. Pheromones do indeed enhance interactions in certain ways, but I think 75% of the reaction I get is going to be based on how I steer the mix.
And, pheromones effect different people differently. What one woman would respond well to, another woman might not like. There was one girl at work who had hated me since the beginning, before I ever started wearing mones, just for being perky and happy all the time. She would never talk to me even if I said "Hi". Eventually, years later, we ended up getting along fine at a birthday party and actually having a pleasant conversation, but that was after almost 3 years of working together and her being cold to me.
EDIT: It just occurred to me that I was referring to the Instant Sexiness/B and Instant Sexiness/A of 2008, 2009 and 2010. I know Androtics has altered this product repeatedly, and I don't have any experience with their newer versions... worth noting

OK - Old Opinionated chick Public Service Announcement.
So - I've got the Alpha Donna - and I don't think I would ever wear that to work. Ever.
It is really a SEXPOT blend. Think Jayne Mansfield. Think Mae West. Think swinging saloon doors. Think '70's IROC's and tight shorts. Do NOT think work.
Alpha Donna is NOT about work. AD at work is wholly and completely incongruent. It would be like showing up in the phero equivalent of a thong and a SMOKIN' Push UP bra for a conference. Sure - you'd be surrounded by guys, and sure - they would all tell you how freekin' brilliant you are - but ummmm- darhlin' - we KNOW WHY they would...they can't help it...in the little teeny part of the the little unevolved part of the brain - they are getting a nonverbal que of "OMFG DOHER DOHER DOHER FING NOW".
And every other woman in the room - whether she can figure out WHY or not - is walking around saying "Ho. She's a ho. God I hate that ho. And by the way - her ass is fat. Why do all the men follow her around when her ass is that fat?! OH YEAH - I know why - because she's a HO." And FYI - if you wore the AD to work - and there is more than one woman? She's not saying that in the teeny unevolved part of her brain. She's saying that to the other women. Out loud. Over a latte. And they are AGREEING with her. And probably plotting your imminent demise.
And you girlfriend are SCREWED.
So - let's practice the cardinal rule of paying our mortgage and our rent - "WE don't SHIT where we EAT" - also known as - truly over the top blatant sexual blends - like AD, or Love Potion's Blatant Invitation or Sexpionage - probably ought not go to the office. Unless you are trying to schtup the boss. And you look like a super model. And you don't give a flying F about the rest of it. In which case - hey - shit where you eat. Your mortgage...
Otherwise - reach for something that's going to help your career - and therefore your mortgage and rent payment.
OK - That is now the end of the "Old Opinionated Chick Public Service Announcement"
My Best,
Shelly B

Hi Alternative Girl.
Thanks for the tips. Still trying to decide, but will ask for samples.
I am not a huge fragrance wearer so I guess picking a scent would probably be in my best interest.
Thanks for sharing your experiences with women. That is good to hear. I was a bit worried.
