Oblivia @ Tickled Pink, I've heard this before too and I think there's probably some merit to it. I think attraction is more than chemical - it's societal, cultural and largely learned.

Rissa Bee hmmm @tickledpink I don't know about that, some peoples natural pheromones can be quite nasty; I think a good balance of a shower and a little spritz of cologne is perfect

HeyNiceEyes Smelling good is a base you should definitely have covered, but it shouldn't be the center of attention. If you're trying too hard, then it works against you. Just don't overdo it. I usually find good deodorant, aftershave, or shampoo to be enough.

Oblivia @HeyNiceEyes Just as long as it's not anything by Axxe!

TigerToy This is a double-edged sword. On the one hand, Tickled is correct that our biology plays an essential role in our attraction to the opposite sex. Pheramones are a huge primal indicator for women, whose biological makeup instructs them to target the best "pheramonal" suiter. Depending on the phase of her cycle, a woman may be more drawn to a man sans cologne than a man who took a spritz. However, as a female who enjoys a light mist of fragerence, I have to concur that it will not mask a lack of hygeine, and I would take a freshly bathed and well groomed man over one doused in aroma any day of the week!
