Male sweat boosts women's hormone levels
"In two trials, a total of 48 undergraduate women at UC Berkeley were asked to take 20 sniffs from a bottle containing androstadienone, which smells vaguely musky. Over a period of two hours, the volunteers provided five saliva samples from which cortisol levels were determined.
Compared to their response when sniffing a control odor (yeast), the women who sniffed androstadienone reported an improved mood and significantly higher sexual arousal, while their physiological response, including blood pressure, heart rate and breathing, also increased. This was consistent with previous studies."

I have been hard at work for 3 days and have avoided the shower. I have to nip down the road for a cigarette top up soon. The women will be throwing themselves at me :).

A number of bodybuilders use this to control excessive sweating while on certain compounds. I'd say this would be useful to have in your "arsenal;" for example if you have a date or need to head out and don't want to sweat through your shirt. Just don't go and play football or something in 100F weather after taking it.
Here's a quote from a member on another board

That really does look interesting. My arm pits are the least of worries - I sweat from every pore in my body and sprays just do not work.
I moved to Spain and on those 30c+ days I turn to liquid.
I have to wear dark clothes so it doesn't show that I am soaked to skin and that of course makes it worse.
