What attracts a woman to a man?

Is it his physique?
Hmm. That could be a factor.

Or is it his dynamic personality?

Or can it be what her nose says about him? Literally.

Chemistry.
That elusive thing that so many seek in that special relationship. The warm fuzzy feeling a woman might feel about her significant other.

Read a romance novel and you might find the heroine intoxicated by the heros masculine scent. Most of these romances are written by women who know what they are talking about.

Likewise, although a guy may be drawn to a woman by her looks, or her personality, there is the X factor that differentiates between a pretty face and the woman he is crazy about. Glamour magazine had a column by a single guy, code named Jake, who gave readers the male perspective of things. He nicknamed the woman who stole his heart Orange Blossoms because of the way she smells.

Of the 5 senses, smell is the most underrated sense, but it is also the one that triggers primal reactions. The scent of vanilla can remind one of a happy childhood, with the scent of vanilla from the cookies baking in the oven. Guys like the scent of vanilla. Maybe the way to a man's heart is via his stomach after all.

An old perfume you used to wear when dating your first boyfriend, can bring back memories of your first love. The scent you wore while on your honeymoon can remind you of the earlier days of your marriage and the love you felt then.

There is another dimension to scents. Animals communicate and attract their mates through pheromones. Even humans exude pheromones. Scent may subsconsciously be used to weed out the healthy potential mates from the unhealthy ones and men subconsciously want a healthy woman to bear his children. Women subconsciously want a healthy man to father their kids. Scents can be responsible for unexplained attraction or repulsion without consciously knowing why.

Certain scents have an aphrodisiac effect. Jasmine, Ylang ylang and rose are a well known aphrodisiac and is often added to sultry fragrances for that aphrodisiac effect.

However, if you do want to attract the opposite sex, pheromone perfume is the way to go. Just make sure you get the right one for your gender.
