Q:
During lovemaking I get turned on by smells but they don't seem to
affect my partner at all. I feel like this is a vital part of the
whole experience. Is there anything I can do to increase smell
sensitivity?
A:
Everyone has a different level of olfaction sensitivity. Still,
increasing your partner's is definitely something you can work on. To
help you do so, try using the following three suggestions:
Massage with Oil:
The combination of massage and scented oils heighten arousal.
Take Advantage of Pheromones:
Pheromones are also called 'human sex hormones.' They are odorless
chemicals the body releases that can sexually excite a partner when
inhaled through the nose. They are secreted through the skin and
especially in areas known for sweating – arm pits and genitals. To
only way to get your partner to breathe your pheromones is to get
close!
Deprive the Other Senses:
Naturally, when one of the five senses is blocked, it causes the other
senses to become stronger. To increase your partner's sense of smell,
try blocking out all senses except for that one.
