[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]In reading Kate Fox\u2019s break though research called the \u201cSmell Report\u201d I was reminded of the research we have done about the differences in scent by sex.\u00a0 Our work has shown preferences that are enjoyed by both and those that are uniquely appreciated by one or the other sex.<\/p>\n

All research shows that there is a big difference in perception of smell between men and women.\u00a0 Women consistently have a more acute sense of smell than men.\u00a0 While studies show that the peak of sensitivity is around age 8, people go outside the boundaries, some having acute sense of smell even late in life.\u00a0 It is generally believed that both sexes experience a decline in ability with age.\u00a0 However the bulk of research shows that throughout time, women out pace men consistently in the ability for smell.<\/p>\n

Dr. Fox\u2019s work as an Anthropologist doesn\u2019t define if it is a stronger survival skill or a DNA structure.\u00a0 One researcher has claimed that the superior olfactory ability of females is evident even in newborn babies. Another study suggests that sex-difference findings may not be entirely reliable, and that sex differences in olfactory prowess may apply to some odors but not others.<\/p>\n

For this writing, we are going to focus on Dr. Fox\u2019s work.\u00a0 According to her, \u00a0\u201cWomen are also significantly more likely than men to suffer from \u2018cacosmia\u2019 – feeling ill from the smell of common environmental chemicals such as paint and perfume. (As to) sexual attraction, the attractive powers of pheromones (scented sex hormones) have often been exaggerated – not least by advertisers trying to sell pheromone-based scents and sprays which they claim will make men irresistible to women. Widely publicized research findings on female sensitivity to male pheromones have also led some men to believe that the odour of their natural sweat is highly attractive to women. Women are indeed highly sensitive to male pheromones, particularly around ovulation, but many popular assumptions about the effects of these pheromones are the result of misinterpretation and over-simplification of the research results.\u201d<\/p>\n

The attraction seems to stem from the male production of androstenol. Androstenol is the scent produced by fresh male sweat, and is attractive to females vs. Androstenone produced by male sweat after exposure to oxygen – i.e. when less fresh – and is perceived as highly unpleasant by females (except during ovulation, when their responses change from \u2018negative\u2019 to \u2018neutral\u2019). [1]<\/a><\/p>\n

Even though the male pheromone androstenol has been shown to be attractive to women, it is only in close proximity.\u00a0 Artificially produced scents that are attributed to being attractive require the male to be in an area away from other males, yet within 18\u201d of the woman.\u00a0 \u201cA man wearing pheromone scent at a crowded party will still have to compete with the other men present for the attention of the women. Only in a strictly one-to-one, intimate encounter could the arousing effect of the scent actually benefit the man wearing it – and to achieve such an encounter, the man must presumably be capable of attracting the woman by some other means.\u201d[2]<\/a><\/p>\n

According to Dr. Fox, \u201cWomen who believe that the use of \u2018sexy\u2019 perfumes will attract men, however, may be misguided. Women\u2019s sensitivity to musk, an ingredient commonly used in perfumes, is 1000 times greater than men\u2019s. \u2018Sexy\u2019 perfumes containing musk are therefore much more likely to arouse the woman wearing them than any potential male partners. But by making a woman feel more sensual, the perfume may affect her behaviour and thus indirectly increase her attractiveness.\u201d<\/p>\n

In the reverse, it has been proven that smelling good elevates the wearers mood, thus giving off an approachability.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]\"\"\u2026the smell of cinnamon buns has been proven to \u2018boost male erections\u2019… <\/strong><\/p>\n

\u2013Dr. Kate Fox, <\/strong>
\nauthor of the Smell Report<\/strong>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Her research found in anecdotal reports and articles in various Women\u2019s Magazines reported claims that \u201cthe smell of cinnamon buns has been proven to \u2018boost male erections\u2019 – some use the more scientific sounding euphemism \u2018increase penile blood-flow\u2019\u2026In fact, the study in question – conducted by the Smell and Taste Research Foundation in Chicago – discovered only that \u2018in those with a normal olfactory ability, a variety of odors can increase penile blood-flow\u2019. These odors included pumpkin pie, licorice, doughnuts and lavender\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n

Certainly scent plays a big role in the differences of the sexes.\u00a0 How that works out in the long run will be yet another unanswered question of the ages.\u00a0 Cinnamon buns ho!<\/p>\n
