A post by NewAlpha got me thinking about the quality of A314. I have two bottles from 2007 the first was good in its effects and the second didn't work as good and smelt awful.

Anyhow, for those long term users, has there been a change in the quality/effects in the product over the years? It'd be interesting to see if their 'research' and fine tuning has led to the general consensus being that A314 has improved. But more importantly any information on the quality of recent batches would be much appreciated (i.e. the vibe you get from it (respect, rockstar vip treatment etc etc).

I feel it's improved and I don't work for ad and am seldom on their board

I have the feeling ...

the old one that was sold on Love Scent was way more commanding and did give you more status than the newer versions

the 2007 version ( still have a 15ml bottle and it´s working great ) was perfect for status and to project an Alpha Vibe .. that´s the stuff they are talking about when they talk about A314

the newer versions ... REV23 and newer ... are less strong in terms of status and are less intimidating .. don´t need much buffers to work on a social level ..

they have more attraction qualites ... and are more suitable for younger guys... not that much the workplace product that it was before ..

depends on the situation to decide on what to use ..

i think the 2007 version was better ..

Thanks for the feedback guys Great stuff, interesting to note they could have made much better business by offering options to customers in terms of desired effects.

EDIT: Also, I will add that its a shame to see them make it softer, since there are already several products like Corpo, Wolf etc that are Alpha without being too domineering, A314 was niche in that it more commanding.

I do find the versions post 2006 a bit harsher-smelling, and less effective at work and my own particular social contexts. It's still an okay product, but I am less thrilled with it.

Yes, they kept the name, cause that was their best seller, but unfortunately, they changed it. As stated, it's less powerful in term of raising your status, giving you this strong dominance vibe. But almost all my clients are CEOs or top managers, and it has really helped me for that. I never use it for seduction game.

I think the latest ones are more "mainstream". I have to struggle more if I want to close the deals. I still use it however, coupled with Instant Honesty, but that's a pity that they changed the formula. The last couple of bottles I bought from them are so stinky that I have to send them back to them. Something is wrong with them. And there is also less product in it.

any thoughts on what additions one might make to re-emphasize the dominance vibe? my guess is one might start with a little more androsterone and TAK, but I am not sure those changes necessarily nail the compliance aspect.

My first 2 bottles of A314 were great. I loved the fragrance and I thought it was perfect for work. I wore it everyday for a long time.

Then they screwed up the scent pack. Now it smells nutty. I hate it.

I've switched to Wolf from Liquid Alchemy Labs.

I really don't know what's going on at AD, but now they've screwed up their flagship product. I read on their forum that 30mL of 1X Instant Openness is now $120.

Try TA, Wolf, or NA. I plan on getting Certo and Corptivo from Alpha Dream.

Avoid a314...

Again, thanks for the feedback guys

Regarding the compliance aspect Pheroquirk, it's highly probable it could be as a result of P83. A dis-inhibitor coupled with a strong Androsterone signature would make them more open to the possibility of your high status signature, i.e. greater than the sum of its parts. Another possibility is Androstanone, which I believe is probably in A314 too.

Great reasoning, Snake! I'll have to try my hand at cooking an alpha mix along these lines sometime soon. Something like:

8 parts beta Th-DOC
5 parts Androsterone
3 parts Androstenone
3 parts Androstanone

Note the golden ratio

Probably need a bunch of DHEA and whatnot to take the edge off.
