Pheromones ~ who's tried them?
http://www.pheromonetalk.com/

I heard of these products in the 80s. For my own reasons, I'm suddenly very interested in trying them.

Have you? What happened?

1. Have not, but I'd like to know too.
And would male pheromones (ones normally used by males) work on women who like other women. :think: How does it all work? I wonder.

2. Yeah ..
I'm just starting to look into it. I think it has come a long way since the 80s! At least one "male" product is also recommended for women by a poster in the forum. I think some of them must be uni-sex. bi-sexual?

Maybe the DUers who use it want to keep it a secret.

Love is...a sweaty T-shirt competition

In 1995, Claus Wedekind of the University of Bern in Switzerland, asked a group of women to smell some unwashed T-shirts worn by different men. What he discovered was that women consistently preferred the smell of men whose immune systems were different from their own.

...

At the University of Chicago, Dr Martha McClintock has shown in her own sweaty T-shirt study that what women want most is a man who smells similar to her father.

7. Interesting ..
I did love the way my dad smelled. Guess I need an Old Spice kind of guy.

I'm going to look into your studies. Thanks.

Yes. They do make fish pheromones.

8. Well, aren't pheromenes everywhere with everybody? So we all have them on our bodies, right?
I must say that I love the smell of my husband's skin, so that must be it. He seems to like mine also, so that is that.

So my question is, why do I need a special scent that replicates what I already have?

9. You don't.
But, some of us are single. And I suppose couples who have been together a long time, or just want to try it, might be interested. If everything is going swimmingly then there's no need to tamper.

10. We've been together a long time and I can say that scent remains a very strong
part of our being attracted to each other. We're both in our sixties and enjoy our physical closeness and kid each other about it! Who knew we'd be so old and so interested in each other...

13. I heard "Sex Panther" by Odeon is pretty good.
It's got bits of real panther in it and 60% of the time, it works every time.
