ENCHANT THE SENSES
So what smells or scents make a person go wild, whilst having very little effect on another. I don't know, and it seems that it's not fully clear. Lots of different theories and a lot of them backed up by science and physiology.
“The aroma enters our nose and comes in contact with the cilia, the fine hair inside the nose lining. The receptors in the cilia are linked to the olfactory bulb which is at the end of the smell tract. The end of the tract is in turn connected to the brain itself Smells are converted by cilia into electrical impulses that are transmitted to the brain through olfactory system. All the impulses reach the limbic system. Limbic system is that part of the brain which is associated with our moods, emotions, memory and learning. All the smell that reaches the limbic system has a direct chemical effect on our moods.”
Our memories seem to play an important part in this. Our memories often attach smells, sounds and feelings to certain physical triggers.
This is a fact.
There is so much research on the topic of “scents as aphrodisiacs”, and while the jury is hung on whether some are true or not, I would like to share with you some of my personal favorites.
I have studied this topic for over 15 years now.
I do my own research.
All of these are the pure essential oils. (http://www.aromaweb.com/articles/whatare.asp)
Having a bunch of flowers in the room will obviously have the exact same effect.
Most of these oils are expensive to manufacture, and unfortunately can cost a small fortune in their unadulterated, undiluted state... Up to $20,000 for a litre of pure oil.
I kid you not.
Imitations will not work.
TUBEROSE
Tuberose is without question the most powerful of natural essential oil aphrodisiacs. The aroma of Tuberose Essential Oil targets the brain to release stress, increase intimacy, create a warm and revitalized feeling and boosts blood circulation as well.
The fragrance of Tuberose is voluptuously sensual, warm, seductive and hypnotic.
It is an "niche" perfume meant for a woman without inhibitions ready to use any mean to seduce. For that reason it will be loved by women who need to overcome a psychological block that stops them from showing their natural sensuality. In fact this fragrance has a narcotic effect that remove mental constructs and the taboos that forbid one to abandon themselves to physical passion.
The narcotizing power of tuberose is used in psycho-aromatherapy to help in solving emotional conflicts, hyper emotiveness, irritability, stress
The extravert, overbearing and sensual aroma of Tuberose introduce spontaneity and an extroverted attitude in the life of whomever needs it.
Rose Otto
Rose otto has the highest frequency (320 Hertz) of all the essential oils on the planet. This in itself is an important factor. It means that the fragrant molecules of the rose oil are able to quickly penetrate and travel the infinitesimal pathways of the body, rapidly energising every cell, bringing balance and harmony to the body. For this reason rose oil may help with chronic sexual disabilities like frigidity, impotence and sluggish libido.
It is stimulating and elevating to the mind, creating a sense of well being.
Rose essential oil has been dedicated to Aphrodite, the Greek goddess of sexual love and beauty, and her Roman equivalent, Venus. Because the scent of rose is so sensual, the Romans scattered rose petals on the bridal beds for the wedding night...
"Rose Otto is recommended for women who find it difficult to reach orgasm and whose low sex drive or libido is linked with lack of self-confidence or with menstrual problems. It is also beneficial for men suffering from erectile dysfunction."

Jasmine.
The queen of the night in India. This wonderful fragrance has proven to have sensual effects in humans. The Fragrance and Flavor Association (based in New Jersey, USA) has found that it stimulates our senses without any negative side effects. This very expensive and rare essential oil has been used as an aphrodisiac for hundreds of years in India. Women in India use it in their hair at night so that their husbands will be drawn to them to make love. When elephants need some help to reproduce, it is said that the owners put jasmine oil on them to excite them. The fragrance alone, when it comes from good quality pure oils, is exquisite. Altered or artificial versions do not have the same aroma and effect.
FOR MEN
Honest to goodness truth, there is nothing more sexy than the natural musky smell of a man who is in lust. No cover ups. Our pheromones are our best signals, and aphrodisiac, but they are not always obvious. Nature has a way of letting us know if the person you are interested in is giving back the signals we want. It's all in the nose.
There are definitely some smells that men are attracted to more than others....the more “masculine” scents.
Some examples of these are...
sandalwood, patchouli, cinnamon, vanilla, cedarwood, basil
Most of these oils are quite heavy base notes, and therefore should be used sparingly in subtle places. I say sparingly, because too much will have the opposite effect. Your Man will think you are trying to dope him into submission.
The name of the game is to enhance your own natural sex smell, but at the same time, cover up any perceived “weaknesses”.
Because the nose knows.
Musk is another smell...real musk. It is said to resemble the smell of testosterone.
As much as I like the smell, I don't advocate it's use, since it is obtained by killing the endangered musk deer.
There are many excellent synthetic versions around. Use your nose, to sniff out a good alternative
NOW FOR THE NITTY GRITTY
What are the best ways to use essential oils, these natural aphrodisiac perfumes???
A few fun ways.
Because pure essential oils are so concentrated, they must be diluted before putting on the skin.
A very quick lesson in this:
Dilute at 5% in any oil base.
Sweet Almond oil, Apricot kernal Oil, Or Olive oil...seriously...whatever you have in your kitchen cupboard will do.
For a massage, what I do is get a small dish...like an eggcup size. For 1 massage you'll need about 2 – 4 Tablespoons of your base oil. Add to that a total of 20 - 30 drops...either singly or in a skilfully blended combination.
That is my speciality. Making blends. I'm very good at it. I can make anything you need.
If you have a persistent sports injury, I know what to use...not very sexy though, unless you like the smell of deep heat.
For stress, I know how to sooth and calm your anxiety away.
For fun in the bedroom...Go no further than Divinia's magic potions...please leave all questions til the end...LOL
(recipies by personal request).
Candles really add to the mood.
.
The other excellent way to use essential oils, is in a bath.
Totally wicked.
For a full bath, no more than 20 drops is necessary. Bubbles are fun, and of course the missing ingredient is the person of your desire.
Just don't forget to disperse the oils well.
(remember, oil and water don't mix)
A spa or jacuzzi is great for this.
If you don't have the luxury of a spa bath, then a bit of vigorous agitation will do the job nicely...LOL
Just don't slip.
I will leave you with some pictures of natures other exotic fragrances...both alluring and sexy
Gardenia (freaky as hell)
Ylang Ylang
Clary Sage
(I can tell you some great stories about CS)
Vanilla Orchid
Vanilla Pods
