Perfume or pheromone, anyone? I was looking at some perfumes today, around this time of the year there are many special sale. Perfume is a common present around the holidays. To some people, I was told, it is offensive to give perfume because it may be mistaken as an insult but that is probably an exemption. Perfume has revolutionized and has become more affordable, even the very expensive scents can now be imitated to produce a cheap one, an imitation but not fake. They are now called designer inspired. A perfume can be eau de cologne, eau de toilette or eau de parfum depending on their concentration or dilution. Looking at the perfumes reminded me of pheromones. Pheromones are chemicals secreted by animals, including humans, that affects the behaviour of another animal or individual. Pheromones in animals have been proven to initiate mating behavior. In human beings, some researchers debate if they truly affect sexual behaviors of human beings. Some entrepreneurs have taken advantage of these theories and created scents or pills that they say has pheromones. Maybe many believed and bought their products. There was even a movie inspired by this a murder mystery movie titled "perfume". The pheromones that are related to sexual attraction are classed as releaser , they elicit rapid and reliable response. If pheromones do work for human beings why are we so obsessed about smelling nice, washing away body odor and even using perfumes? Pheromones are detected through smell from the body but body odor is also affected by food, medicine, illness and of course washing. Maybe we use perfume as pheromone substitute? There was once a TV show I watched that tested if a blind folded partner is able to identify their partner by their smell. From what I have watched most of them are able to identify their partners by their smell. Having a heightened sense of smell I think I can identify my partner too. I have a preference to natural smell over perfume as long as it is a clean smell, I don't mind the smell of sweat as long as they had a shower on that day. A bad smell like smelly armpit, smelly feet or bad breath are a total turn off. Even if layered with perfume, we can still tell. I wonder if perfumes enhances pheromones. I read somewhere that since men like manly perfume then woman should wear manly perfume to attract men and vise versa.. I thought how silly, why would a man like his lady partner smelling like a man and vise versa? I jokingly advised someone to use baby cologne because no woman can resist the smell of a baby. Now if you can tell me .do you like your partner wearing perfume? What perfume do you like? “Use the quotation for the occasion; do not make an occasion for the quotation.” |

II think women are the same. I agree the smell of perfume can linger and stays in one's memory but so is the bad smell.  “Use the quotation for the occasion; do not make an occasion for the quotation.”

The smell of freshly showered man or woman will always top the list of ' who smells good' to me. Especially with the use of mild bath soap (like baby soap ?) and yes, baby cologne. Add perfume and its fatal  Perfume can work many ways, of course depends on the brands one's using. and you can tell a bit of their personality by their chosen scent..Still good hygiene is a great factor.
