The full review
Our testing notes.
Androstadienone, 'A1,' the so-called love molecule, is the compound the community associates with comfort, warmth and emotional openness rather than sexual pull. Pheromone Treasures sells it pure: unscented, 1mg/ml, in a 10ml dropper.
Its reported signature is the slow-building 'fallout' effect, a sense of comfort and attachment that develops over repeated exposure. DIY mixers add a little to soften and humanize a harsher androstenone-forward blend. As one molecule, it's a tool, not a finished scent.
With clear labeling and fair pricing, it's a sensible staple for building your own signatures. If you want something to wear, start with a finished cologne that already includes it, like the brand's Captain or Desi.
