In an odor study of men ages 16-64, done in the1990s by Dr. Alan R. Hirsch, who directs the Smell and Taste Treatment and Research Foundation in Chicago, the number one odor that enhanced penile blood flow was a combination of lavender and pumpkin pie, and pumpkin pie was the strongest stimulant on its own.
Other scents and their effects were:
•Lavender and pumpkin pie: 40%Forget about smothering yourself in cranberry sauce. (Cranberry - 2%)
•Doughnut and black licorice: 31.5%
•Doughnut and cola: 12.5%
•Lily of the valley: 11%
•Buttered popcorn: 9%
If your man doesn't like pumpkin pie and is strictly a meat-eater, you could always wear a meat dress like Lady Gaga as long as he likes things rare.
Otherwise, try some Burger King "Flame" cologne that smells like cooked flame-broiled meat
and hand him a bottle of pumpkin ale.
Football half-time on Thanksgiving Day could be better than the game itself.
LOLOLOL!!!
ReplyDeleteYou NEVER cease to amaze me!!
I LOVE this post!!!
You know, I had sinus surgery a few years ago... right around Thanksgiving time... and it dawned on me that I couldn't smell the turkey cooking!!! Something had happened and I have lost most of my sense of smell... :o(
That does come in handy for cooking and sex...
~shoes~
I'm not convinced. Whatever benefits the pumpkin pie might do to blood flow would be offset by the images of little old ladies that the lavender induces. I wonder how the licorice would work without the doughnut. I suppose further research is needed.
ReplyDeleteNancy is making a pumpkin pie for the first time evah this year.
ReplyDeleteJust sayin'
Oh dear lord....as if the BK wasn't freaky enough in his commercials. I mean, he has pajama parties with construction workers for cripes sake, but that picture....wrong and creepy on sooo many levels. I may have to sleep with the lights on. LOL
ReplyDeleteHa! Perhaps you just stumbled upon the formula for Viagra - Lavender and Pumpkin!
ReplyDeleteThere could be a business opportunity here...
*gets out big pan*
shoes: My husband's sense of smell is almost gone due to severe allergies, so pumpkin pie doesn't work with him.
ReplyDeletecrock: The current opinions on this is that the aromas evoke pleasant memories and that is the real cause of the additional blood flow. So if one had a pleasant experience with cow manure, I supposed that odor would induce the blood flow, too.
gls: Let us all know if it achives the desired results.
Stacy: The BK King smelling like meat and half naked in front of a fireplace is everyone's nightmare.
rabbit: Lavender and pumpkin pie may remind men of their mothers and induce some type of Oedipal reaction. ;-)
Well, to point out the elephant in the room: I'm not surprised pie increases erectile blood flow.
