Spiced fragrances top sexy scent poll

Report this content

Spice up your love life. Spiced fragrances are the sexiest aphrodisiac according to a leading fragrance and beauty expert.

An online poll has revealed perfumes with warm, spicy aromas are found most sensual. Experts say this is because they lead to increased perspiration and the production of pheromones, causing sexual attraction. A variety of spicy essential oils used in fragrances are well known aphrodisiacs. Lavender, patchouli, cedar wood, jasmine and ylang ylang are all said to increase libido and sexual energy.

Fragrance and beauty e-tailer, Deane Brooks of www.perfume-click.co.uk, has revealed the fragrances voted most romantic. He said:

“As Valentine’s Day approaches and sales of fragrances peak, scents will not only help you ‘get in the mood’ for love but boost perceived attractiveness. The most popular perfumes to attract lovers are as follows:

The word aphrodisiac originates from Aphrodite the Greek Goddess of sensuality. The exchange of pheromones, genetic makeup and romance has long been linked together. In 100 B.C Julius Ceasar called perfumes the “fire of love”; whilst in Roman times Frankincense and myrrh were commonly used as erotic scents. Cleopatra was said to use fragrance and opiates to seduce men.
