When I first started with pheromones in 2009, I could clearly discern between the scents of Androstenone and Androsterone.

Now, after 6 years, not so much.

I can sometimes detect an odor from an individual Pheromone.

I can sometimes detect it consistently between differing formulations of products and different brands.

I can not always detect the odor though. IMO, whether or not I can detect it depends on my own internal hormonal fluctuations.

Perhaps wearing a product daily might cause "nose blindness" in a similar way to not being able to detect a perfume one wears daily.

I don't wear the pheromones daily, so in my case, I think whether or not I can detect a particular pheromone odor is due to fluctuations in my own body chemistry. Just a thought backed by absolutely no solid scientific evidence other than my own experiences.

I'd say it is a factor. High estrogen levels are linked to high smell sensitivity. In a normal cycle, a woman's estrogen level will slowly increase until it peaks right before she ovulates. Try to take note of which week of your cycle you can smell mones better.

Thanks Moe for the information.
