A recent study provided some surprising results for what aromas trigger certain physical, er, reactions in both men and women. According to Dr. Alan Hirsch, a neurologist/psychiatrist at the Smell and Taste Treatment Research Foundation in Chicago, the #1 turn-on smell for men was: yep, you guessed it: cinnamon buns. I kid you not (finally, an explanation for why the Pillsbury Doughboy is such a major player.) Runner-up was a combo smell: pumpkin pie and lavender. Ladies, before you get too smug, consider this: the winner for our gender was (no idea how this mix even occurred to them) Good n' Plenty licorice combined with cucumber. Good n' Plenty with banana nut bread finished second (a sad testimonial for Entenmann's.) And now the bad news: scents that had an adverse effect on vaginal blood flow were: men's cologne, cherries, and the smell of barbecued meat. There were no smells listed as turn-offs for men, which supported my private theory that men remain boy scouts throughout their lives: they are always prepared.
