2010 This news article discusses the demonstration of a sexually-relevant hormone response to the natural body odor of women, and may help to sustain interest in the use of pheromone-enhanced fragrance products for women. [2010 Women’s natural scent more seductive than perfume](http://news.discovery.com/human/women-perfume-natural-scent.html). Here’s the link to the article abstract. “…[olfactory cues signaling women’s levels of reproductive fertility](http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20424057)were associated with specific endocrinological responses in men–responses that have been linked to sexual behavior and the initiation of romantic courtship.” 2011 This news article suggests that women might gain a subtle competitive advantage by using pheromone-enhanced products that make them smell younger and more fertile. [The threatening scent of fertile women](http://www.nytimes.com/2011/02/22/science/22tier.html?_r=2&src=ISMR_HP_LI_LST_FB). 2011 “…subtle cues of fertility led to a cascade of mating-related processes–from lower order cognition to overt behavior–that reflected heightened mating motivation. Implications for theories of goal pursuit, romantic attraction, and evolutionary psychology are discussed.” Full text of the article [here](http://www.psy.fsu.edu/%7Esmiller/miller_maner_jpsp_in_press.pdf): Also, see **Kohl** , Atzmueller, Fink and **Grammer** ([http://www.nel.edu/22\_5/NEL220501R01\_Review.htm](http://www.nel.edu/22_5/NEL220501R01_Review.htm)) (2001) for the full text of an award winning review on the topic of human [pheromones](https://a314.com/shop/).

LOL and WOW! I just bookmarked this for later consumption. I find most of the articles you have written very informative and require myself to read them to better my knowledge and understanding of our use of pheromones. Thanks for posting 🙂 I strongly recommend everyone should read this to provide greater depth and knowledge of pheromones to better serve yourself and the community. ---

Most of the focus has been on getting men to use [pheromone](https://a314.com/shop/)-enhanced products, which is why I decided to provide some information for the ladies. Pheromone enhancement is not just for men, as most people know here, but these articles support the effects that some women have reported, and those that are probably not being reported by women who don’t want other women to know. Not that there’s anything wrong with that. There are studies that show women are more competitive in this regard. James V. Kohl ---

I’ve noticed that a woman’s breathe will change aroma when she’s sexually excited. It comes from deep in her lungs and is very appealing! Anyone else notice this? ---

This is all nice but it’s talking about natural scent. Does this also work with synthetic stuff? I’d be interesting in something like a male libido enhancer.
