What cologne scent are women most attracted to? Most of the women I spoke to were most attracted to fresh citrus scents with notes of fruit, sea spray, and cedar. Though many women are also attracted to musky scents, with sandalwood, pepper, and a hint of sweet vanilla.
Aquatic fragrances and those that contain mint are attractive to women because they smell clean and hint at good hygiene. Wearing a cologne with an aquatic or minty accord can enhance the effect of a hygienic appearance, which is important when attracting females.
Soothing scents such as lavender can relax women, leading to increased feelings of arousal. Vanilla is a crowd-pleasing scent that both men and women find attractive. Applying peppermint on your lips can help you seal the deal with your date.
Bergamot and sandalwood are two of the most popular fragrance notes in men's cologne. The fresh and spicy scent of bergamot pairs very well with sandalwood's woody and warm musky scent.
Aphrodisiac scents include pumpkin, lavender, vanilla, cinnamon, peppermint, ambrette, ylang-ylang, ginger, and more. Despite some skepticism around the use of aphrodisiacs, studies show that many of these aromas do work — they can be easily incorporated into anyone's fragrance routine.
One of the most important characteristics that most women seek is modesty. Outspokenness, charity, and honesty are further feminine appeal traits that are always observed, along with humility. Nothing appeals to a woman more than a man with a great sense of self.
Perfume Is An Intimate Gift
Your choice of perfume may be an extension of who you are, but at the same time, it can also say something about the person you want to become. A good perfume says more than words ever could. A beautiful fragrance can lift anyone's spirits and make them feel special.
Androstenol is the scent produced by fresh male sweat, and is attractive to females. Androstenone is 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 'negative' to 'neutral').
FOR WOMEN: SCENTS THAT ATTRACT MEN
According to research, men are attracted to the fragrances that claim aphrodisiac tendencies such as vanilla and cinnamon. They are also attracted to Vetiver, the grass indigenous to India which has a similar smell to that of a lemongrass.
Some of the pleasant scents that could turn a girl on include the naturally occurring scents of pheromones. These natural scents are widely used by perfume companies to turn people on. Across the animal kingdom, the pheromones have a powerful effect on inviting the partner for sex.
Women desire a man who is honorable, fair, and ethical. In terms of relationships, having integrity can help strengthen the bond a man has with a woman, as his moral principles will guide his behavior and help him to be the best partner that he can be.
Women, on average, tend to be more attracted to men who have a relatively narrow waist, a V-shaped torso, and broad shoulders. Women also tend to be more attracted to men who are taller than they are, and display a high degree of facial symmetry, as well as relatively masculine facial dimorphism.
Research shows that humor and kindness are also characteristics which women find attractive in a man. Clear skin and masculine features are often cited as two physical characteristics which women find desirable in men.
Earthy. Earthy scents like sandalwood, patchouli, and rosewood are strong scents commonly associated with masculinity. The earthy aroma can warm the body and increase feelings of well-being, thereby increasing a woman's desire for a sexual encounter.
Studies have shown that body odor is strongly connected with attraction in heterosexual females. The women in one study ranked body odor as more important for attraction than “looks”. Humans may not simply depend on visual and verbal senses to be attracted to a possible partner/mate.
Unsurprisingly, 97 percent of women think cologne is sexy. After breaking it down into specific scent families, women reported outdoorsy colognes as the sexiest. If you want to take that route, opt for a fragrance with woody, aquatic, or citrusy notes. Not into smelling like a lumberjack?
