Pheromones Encourage Shopping

Found this news article back from January 2004 while browsing Live-Scent.com forums:

"Now Canadian retailers are squirting a synthetic human pheromone around shop floors. The stuff apparently makes customers feel comfortable and secure and hence more likely to buy.The pheromone was originally designed for a big Las Vegas casino. Now Vancouver-based Enhanced Air Technologies (EAT) has released its Commercaire (www.commercaire.com) pheromone for general use."

Apparently, the project was soon abandoned and both the product and company sites are dead. If you know anything about the story or any other company that uses pheromones in retail, leave a comment.

    Note that the latest project is also vaporous. No surprise here.

    Not to say that such a technology isn't possible, mind you. Just that I wouldn't trust this particular effort to have been any less virtual than the latest.

  2. There might be a variety of perfumes available in the market but only few are capable of making sensation in the mind of people. So, if you would like to opt for a new brand of pheromone then look for the deals available online at LuvE(www.luvessentials.com). I am using this one when I search pheromones online that fit for me.
