Moreover, the self-effects from Captain are such that you feel more relaxed and start to talk a little more. And when you talk, people listen intently.

At least this is how Captain works for me. Introverted 90% of the time and extroverted 10% of the time here.

Exactly!

I am also an introvert by nature (somewhat) and I found A314 and Wolf to be fantastic. I sense you haven't tried them from your post.

A314 is great but Wolf is more smooth and it also gives me a confidence boost. I swear I feel like a million bucks.

Bad Wolf is a terrible option, BD was meant for the guy that's very outgoing and has no problem initiating or opening up a conversation. DON'T get BD because you will find this very difficult to master and you'll be frustrated.

I would also take advantage and use subs such as 'boosting your confidence' and 'become an alpha male' all of which you can find on the net.

Av is awesome but i cant wear it everyday!

For an INTP I feel like Wolf or Ascend are the best alphas, they're well buffered with good social aspects without losing the alpha (Wolf is less alpha than Ascend, imo).

I love both AV and A314, but think both can be quite intimidating. Never used captain but sounds like another well buffered alpha from people's reviews.

Also, for introverts I expect good self effects can be just as important and Wolf and Ascend both have great self effects.

Wolf, while being a great mone product, puts out too much of a buddy buddy vibe. If there's something us introverts hate, it is strangers invading our personal space. Wolf invites exactly this to happen unless it is spiked with a good none (and cops) product.

I can totally relate to this. Kimosabe once again has explained things much more eloquently than I ever could. Captain is the product I wear more than any other. It is a great approachable alpha vibe that also has a decent amount of attraction with it. People are still very respectful, however.

Dude, I'm also an INTP, and a real Wolf slappy! I wear Wolf nearly exclusively, been doing so since its debut. Sometimes I'll switch it up with Ascend, it's a little more alpha than wolf (got some sex appeal to it too), but that stank gets old quick, so it isn't long before I'm back to the Wolf. But, hey, alpha is more or less a state of mind, rather than what you look or smell like.

If respect is what you are looking for, either of those should help you with that, don't pay too much attention to the sexuals for now. Nothing to say about A314 or Captain though, never gave em spin, but they get alot of air time on this site, so they should be great as well.

Right after I apply Wolf, I give myself a quick gun show in the mirror, happens like clockwork every time. (Anybody else do anything like this?) I guess its a subconscious reaction to feeling powerful. I think the subtle alpha's fit the INTP temperament best, so my vote is for Wolf or Captain.

Don't believe for a second that wolf is beta, what you believe is what you make true. Your mind makes you powerful, dabu,...your mind.

Seconded.
Cant say for sure which of the two, not having tried Captain either.

As an INTP, I can pull off the A314 vibe just fine at 2 drops. Wolf is too weak an alpha for me, but OD does just fine. I haven't tested Ascend, but it looks like a fairly mediocre mix by all accounts - APi isn't bad, but like Wolf, I find it too weak. Others may find Wolf and APi to fit their needs, but speaking for me, this hasn't been the case.

I agree on the self-effects bit - A314's self-effects are always a plus, IME.
