What to splash on for that big date

Scents that make you attractive
So guys, you have a bit of a problem finding out what scent to put on:
“Some odors inhibited women: cherries, barbecue meat and men’s cologne,” said Hirsch. In a bizarre turn, the biggest turn-on smell for women was a combination of cucumbers and Good-n-Plenty.
This is especially tough because men love cherries and bbq, and are pretty likely to have picked up the scents. But eau de cuke? But at least women have it easier. Just lather up with a slice of cheese pizza…
Men have a less discriminating nose: every smell boosted sexual arousal. Perfumes increased arousal by a mere 3 percent, cheese pizza by 5 percent, and a combination of lavender and pumpkin pie by 40 percent.

OK I definitely agree.. I can not stand the smell of cherries (especially artifical scents). Barbeque sents make me gag.. but i am a sucker for barbeque,so i will consume it. And cologne has to be the worst scent on the planet! Who thought that was a good idea, over priced musky garbage,.. and that is supposed to attact a woman? Ick!
Now clean scents (you know bathing, guys.. it works). which makes sense why cucumber wouldbe on the list of attractions since cucumber is a nice fresh smell.

I don’t know that I’d exactly want the hubby running around smelling like my body lotion (cucumber scented), BUT………I also don’t want him smelling like cherries or BBQ. Cologne doesn’t bother me; however, *I* must choose the scent.
I don’t like those typical smells most men wear (Obsession makes me want to hurl); I much prefer a very woodsy scent to the skin. If you want to know the truth, the deoderant the Captain wears is sensual enough for me. LOL. If I had my way, he would bathe endlessly in the Woodland Hemp soap by River Soap Company; alas, it contains hemp oil, and as we all know, you can’t use ANY product with that stuff in in whilst in the military. *sigh* Damn it smells good, though!

I just scored on ebay something you may love the scent of. Burts Bees Bay Rum shaving soap. I’ve had some of the aftershave for a while but the smell of that stuff is just awesome. Very Caribbean spice kinda thing. Very rich and dark smelling. Alas, also very discontinued for a while. You can get it on ebay and a few other places though, I’m thinking about picking up another few cakes of the shaving soap while I still can.

That sounds delicious (and you know I don’t mean edibly LOL)! I’ll have to keep that in mind come Father’s Day, if it’s still around! And I like BB products a lot, anyway. :)
