Sometimes I get turned on by the perfume a woman is wearing though she may not be that attractive. Why is this

Question

will smell cloud a person's sense ?

Answer 1

Most perfumes have some basis in pheremones - either natural or chemically constructed.

From wikipedia:

"A pheromone is any chemical or set of chemicals produced by a living organism that transmits a message to other members of the same species. There are alarm pheromones, food trail pheromones, sex pheromones, and many others that affect behavior or physiology"

My favorite one is musk, usually found in men's colognes.

"Musk is the name originally given to a perfume obtained from the strong-smelling substance secreted by a gland in the abdomen of the male musk deer..."

Apparently the smell of a deer's rear (where it's secreted from) is appealing to women!

Answer 2

A person' smell says a lot about that person. try standing next to some1 who smells awful & u might discover why pleasant smells esp. of women attracts u. I'd rather stand next to a ugly man who smells nice than to an handsome man who smell like something out of a trash can. Smell either turns u on r off a person, attractive or otherwise.

Answer 3

Perfume manufacturers go to great lengths to research the aromas that turn men on. It's the competitive free market at work.
