Title: Chikara
Post by: Dsouza on Mar 24, 2024, 11:30 AM
True story.

I used this product back in my 30's last!

I recall walking with it into a highland farms food store and a hot 20 something blonde opening me in the isle when my cart passed hers.

I was pushing the trolley fast.  "Boy you must be in a rush !" She exclaimed. 

At that time I was happy with the relationship with my SO and I wasn't looking for fooling around.

But it just goes to show the power of this formula .

Nowadays there are far more advanced products on the market.

So has anyone recently purchased Chikara?  It's so expensive for a 15 ml.  Did the formula change in any way over the years?

My wingman said that he used Chikira with great success, said it was better than IMPI RED and The Edge when it came to dating. I also heard good things about it, but I haven't tried it myself so I can't speak much

I've tried it in the past, both as a gell and in spray. I still have it and haven't used it in a long while as I found the scent too "in your face." I may dig it out and put some in a travel bottle to put in my tote.

Chikara is a product that makes you the cool guy who's liked by everyone , however it's not to my knowledge a homerun product.

It's good for meeting new people, especially women, possibly a first date and making it to kissing.  I can't remember enough but it attracts blondes and also women in the 20's.

Worth a try.  I may just pick up a bottle for old times sake.

Did anyone purchase Chikara recently?  Like within the last 6 month to a year?

Would you say the formula has not undergone changes over the years like what happens to NPA, primal instinct etc?

Any old time Chikara uses here who are continuing to use it ?  If so what has been your opinion?

I still await my bottles to arrive!

My Chikara arrived today.  Reported about it in today's journal entry.

Post by: TracerX on Apr 05, 2024, 05:10 PM
I got mine yesterday, I only used it for about an hour today. But seems like a very good daily mone for work. Men become buddy buddy, friendly, trusting, had a convo with some people both new and those I knew conversation were much more aimed like old buddies convos.

One girl who I saw a few times in one place was like suddenly all friendly, gave me a hug out of nowhere, whilst the times I met her she was snobby, she was pretty clingy.

I noticed it repels the less attractive girls, like they talk to you but then like run out of life and had this sort of hopeless look on their face and didn't wanna engage lol. I saw thi with two girls.

Normal girls talked ok, kinda social like conversations similar to Possess. No really big notes, one blonde was flashing eyes at me and whenever I talked to her in the  group she'd have a big smile (this smile though was something between a sincere smile and a gold digger smile lol)

This is by no means a proper test, this is an on the fly, but it doesn't seem to give me an OD on 4 sprays. Guys are very open to you socially. It reminds me of Possess with more status, maybe tiny bit more sexual.

My own recent experience was no luck at 3 sprays and nothing at 1. When I'm back in the office on Monday I'll try two sprays and, if anything, I'll add it to my journal.

You said it repelled unattractive girls.  So did it pull 8's or 9's?

I've tested it in a public gathering with four sprays recently. People were friendly, one guy I actually knew acted in a very strange defensive way towards me. I sat there with him, another bro and 2 girls. He's usually this kind of 'nice guy', the social guy who never gets laid but the one who would be a good friend, something like that. He was really in fight or flight mode with me that, it was really off. And it was just with me lol. He kept trying to talk to the girls and all that.

There was one girl at another table, I talked to her before I was at this table I just mentioned. We talked for like 8 min and I left to the table. Later that night I talked to her for another 5 min, seemed to have some weird fascination towards me. Though the conversation was really.. basic on my end. We walked in the same direction at the gathering's ending, and we talked for like 15 min, I saw again those big eyes of fascination, she shared lots of private stuff and stories, showed interest in me and in the content of what I was saying. I kissed her and she was happy. We exchanged contacts. Next day she's as cold as ice lol funny. I think 4 spray is too much anyway, I recall now another dude who was kinda challenging me, trying to show some attitude. Funnily the big buff, tall guys at the event were really friendly with me.. could be cause they have strong T-levels, not gonna analyze that. 1 really unattractive girl was repelled and avoided me (thank god)

So after testing this more for a while I conclude that this product isn't that special. I would call it something between:
- An office friendly version of IMPI RED
- Maybe a social IMPI RED thingy (-20% sexual + 20% social)
- A slightly more status version of Possess
- A mone that in contrast to both Possess and IMPI it can trigger some men to be jealous while with IMPI and Possess I never ever had this effect, in fact men always align with me while I wear IMPI or Possess. Never had a bad interaction with males with those.
- Feels different than AV though, much more approachable

In terms of practicality, you can get numbers with it, and actually pretty easily from certain girls. In my experience these certain girls share a few things:

1) Introverted, less talkative or even barely talkative. Can be at a party
2) Girls that are average but still somewhat attractive (like bare minimum attractive)
Yes, it's a 7 magnet. It's even funny, those will give numbers with very small amount of time. 

For girls of higher attraction, it starts to give me Wolf vibes, as in "yea you're not that impressive". I don't feel any aid with it. I feel I need to work harder for 8s and above. Extraverted talkative girls don't seem to be affected as much from this pheromone cloud of Chikara. That's the statistic.

However, with women I knew it's a bit of a different story. All said above was meant for new women you've never met, all new. With women I knew (even those I haven't seen for a  long time), there was always a very positive spark of curiosity. And this goes for hot girls. I remember vividly one girl who we had ups and downs with. She's a 9/10, with a face that feels like its been sculpted by AI. We had a very good social contact when I was dating one other girl. Then a long period where she kinda hated me cause I slept with one girl she knew. Later it was neutral for a long time, semi cold smile. And I was wearing a variety of mones in gatherings where I met her. Didn't see anything remarkable. I saw her at a party while wearing Chikara, and she kinda clinged to me and started talking to me a lot, there was definitely an element of deep curiosity, was kind of like a truth serum, cause she told me a lot of deep stuff. There was touching, haven't seen that in a while. So this surprised me.

It will not give you a sexual bomb suddenly though, actually I wouldn't classify this mone as sexual. But girls I knew, those I had a good relation or not so good, sexual and not, all seem to notice something and behave out of character, in a positive way.

3-4 sprays is optimal ime, for those who ask.

So yea avatar_Dsouza sinces you're only into 9s and 10s I don't recommend this for you if you're going for new girls. If you've got some of those that you've messed up the relation you can give it a go.

Glad to hear it bro! It's overall a good product, but I don't see a 'wow' affect from it. I prefer IMPI from LaCroy, I find that LaCroy products have this.. LaCroyish effect, it's good sometimes great, but it's not something that performs miracles, but it's ultra consistent and that's valuable, you know what you're working with.

Got 2 number closes with Chikara with 4 spray on clothes. Overall.. one girl was twitching about 70% of the time talking to me but convo was nice lol ,  other girl was ultra positive but I didn't feel that much mone hit, felt just like good game. Guys were friendly that night but really nothing much too interesting, just your regular mone, I'm returning this one to the retailer.

I have it and have used it, but found the scent overpowering. Don't know if it's me or not, but I didn't really want something that smelled that "up front" instead of a more mild scent.

I remember Chikara was great when I used it! I only used the gel packs from Love Scent.
I also discovered the Chikara/A7 combo. It worked great!

I tried the gel pack back in the day, around 2008-2010 and never got any results with Chikara.

The Chikara gel packs worked very well with a drop of unscented Alpha 7. Almost as good as the SOE/A7 combo.

Same with me, except every so often somebody would complement the fragrance.
Title: Re: Chikara
Post by: Arrow on Mar 24, 2025, 09:51 PM
A compliment on the fragrance is a hit! It's a good conversation starter.

I used to use the gel packs too. I never owned a spray bottle until now.
My spray bottle arrived and it has the same familiar smell as I remember the gel smelling.
The scent from the spray bottle can be strong if you spray a lot. I sprayed 3 sprays on my arm to prime the pump and it's a little stronger than how I remember the gel packs.
I still like Chikara and I think it might work better with drops.
I also think Chikara would work with a nice scented cologne. I have noticed that some scented phero products work real nice with certain scented men's colognes...You just have to find the right one.

This could help with shyness.

If shyness is holding one back from talking and opening up, the vibe you talk about here could aid in that...unless it totally turns you off (which I don't think it does).

Use that vibe to your advantage and start chatting the women up.

That vibe you're feeling is an alpha vibe. Don't get scared and beta out!

Chikara wins again!

I've tested Chikara before in the past but I'm starting over and testing again to see what it does for me now.

This stuff is liquid gold!

It doesn't matter if I like the scent...it only matters if the ladies like it...and they do!

I do like the scent by the way.

And to make sure it's not all just coincidence, I will test again sometime soon and see if I get the same results I've been seeing.

I was reading reviews on Chikara...I noticed several comments said that it was a great scent but it did nothing for them.

What?

How does something that smells great do nothing for you?

I just assume that these people have fairy tale expectations.

They get frustrated that their expectations are not met instantly and so they give up on Chikara.

It's not the mones that are ruining some people's chances at attraction...It's their expectations.

I hate to say it, but I'm in that camp. Love the scent, but never get anything worthy of considering it a "hit" with anyone. The scent is so strong that it's impossible to go heavy, or else you're announcing yourself to the world tens of feet before you even walk into the room.

There's no need to go heavy with Chikara.

Chikara works fine at the recommended dosage.

Using more than the recommended dosage doesn't mean better results.

Anything over 2 sprays is too much.

The hits are not always instant...It takes getting to know the woman and sometimes several exposures.

But when it works, she'll purr like a kitten.

It's not horny goat weed. It's romantic and sensual.

I didn't know Chikara had wipes. Where did you find them?

I have tried alot of mones too.

Every mone product has it's purpose and will work in the right environment.

Alpha 7 Unscented Pheromones (https://love-scent.com/alpha7-unscented-pheromones-p-104.html)

Use unscented A7 with Chikara...Not scented.

I have never tried the scented version but I heard it stinks.

I know these are two classic products that get bashed alot.

But give them a try as a combo and see how it goes for you.

Thanks, I wasn't expecting that as I've never seen it abbreviated in that manner. I had a small vial of Alpha 7 unscented and don't recall getting much out of it. Perhaps another alpha could be paired with Chikara?

Then it wouldn't be the Chikara/A7 combo. I couldn't say how it would work.
If I'm going to wear Chikara with anything, it's A7.
