Overview

A314 is one of the most iconic and discussed pheromone products ever created. Originally developed in 2003 by Androtics Chemosensory Research (now sold through a314.com), it’s designed as a “social chemistry tool for professionals” - projecting confident, masculine authority suitable for daytime and professional contexts.

Unlike aggressive sexual products, A314 is the “Gentleman’s Alpha” - commanding respect without intimidation.

DIY Alternative

Some experienced users note you can approximate A314 by mixing:

  • Androsterone (primary)
  • Trace androstenone
  • Androstenol (buffer)

However, the specific ratios and 15+ putatives make the full formula difficult to replicate.

Community Consensus

Rating: 8/10

A314 is legendary for its consistent respect and authority effects. For daytime and professional use, few products match its track record. However, vendor issues and premium pricing prevent a higher rating. The formula itself is excellent - the business side is the concern.

Highly recommended for:

  • Professional environments
  • Daytime social situations
  • Those seeking respect over raw attraction
  • Business meetings and networking
  • Experienced users who know what they want

Not recommended for:

  • Nightclub/bar environments
  • Those seeking aggressive sexual attraction
  • Budget-conscious buyers
  • Users uncomfortable with vendor uncertainty

The original “Respect Pheromone” - when it works, nothing matches it.
