Can Foods and Aromas Help Your Dating Success?
I just saw this on the Today Show and had to do some research.Foods and aromas can also be used as an aphrodisiac and can actually help stimulate sexual arousal in both men and women.
It is known that men show sexual desire from pumpkin and lavender odors.
So what about women?
Women aroma studies have shown that the most popular arousal odor is with cucumbers, Good & Plenty candy (licorice flavored candy) and almonds. Studies show that cherry aroma showed a 13% increase in blood flow in women.
Surprisingly male colognes only had a 1% effect on vaginal blood flow. The smell of charcoal barbecue smoke lowers women’s sexual drive by 18%. Some couples find that the natural smells of their partner are real turn-ons. And sometimes the partner is unhappy when the smells are washed away or covered up.
Well guys that should give us some clues...on a first date no Tony Roma’s (18% drop in sex drive may be too much to overcome) and Old Spice? Forget about it.
Of course being a guy who loves to eat I am thinking of ways to add food into foreplay.
This week, experiment in the kitchen a little.

Well, I don't care, I still like Barbeque.
Now that's weird. I also heard about color affecting arousal as well. I'm not much of a lavender-smell person because our house uses that smell for the bathroom.
I agree about the "natural aroma" thing but I do enjoy the scent of vanilla too.
I like the natural aroma... and that's weird that cologne is only 1%! I love the smell of cologne :)
I know how you could add cucumbers to foreplay... -WINK-
a-hyuk
LIES! Axe and Kiss cologne (Jesus, terrible stuff!) turn me on like crazy. So does the smell of cooking beef/BBQs.
But I'm very scent oriented, so whatevs. :D
"It is known that men show sexual desire from pumpkin and lavender odors."
So does this mean cook a pumpkin pie???
My girlfriend loves the scent of me so when I add some "special" cologne, I can never get her off me. It's awkward to walk down some stairs if her nose is like in my neck O_O
didn't the study say anything about COFFEE? hahahaha... What about that right-out-of-the-dryer smell? BOUNCE.... oh that's lovely too actually... Although the biggest turn on so far IS the mixture of the guy's natural scent with his choice of soap and I don't know why OR Armani Aqua de Gio (fav cologne) is a huge turn on.
I love the smell of charcoal!!
I work at a pizza chain. I smell like pizza constantly. Haha.
let's recommend Bounce pumpkin aroma?@kor_girl@xanga -
