Male Pheromone
Is there a ‘love potion’ that can help men attract women? Some people believe that the male pheromone can be bottled and used as ‘cologne’ to easily attract the opposite sex. This unique natural emission also known as Androstenone is excreted by not only humans but insects and animals as well. It releases through the sweat glands and plays an important role in mating. Through small sensors in the nose called the Vermeronasal organ, some scientists have discovered that the male pheromone is detected and immediately transferred to the Hypothalamus (the part of the brain that controls our basic human needs and emotions including our sex drive). Although it is odorless and consciously unable to be detected by the nose, this secretion is subconsciously picked up by females (they have a much better sense of smell than males) rendering them sexually attracted. Women do not know this chemical reaction is happening they just feel a connection.
The problem with this unique substance is that it ends up down the drain of your bathtub every time you take a shower. In turn, it is then inhibited by the use of deodorants, antiperspirants and antiseptics. We have become a society overly obsessed with cleanliness therefore robbing us of our most precious attraction resource. This research is ongoing as other scientists repute the use of the male pheromone as impossible to collect or even be used as it is as unique therefore only able to be detected by a chemically compatible female.
Many companies tout the use of this substance in the form of expensive cologne but to date there is no evidence that they work on a regular basis. However, these companies substantiate the research by setting up test scenarios such as spraying their product on a group of chairs and not spraying others noting that most of the women choose the chairs that have been sprayed. Beware when purchasing these substances for, as indicated, there is no guarantee.
