Your Own Seductive Perfume - How To Make It At Home
The dash of perfume we put on when we go out is intended to be be seductive. Instinctively, we chose a different perfume for day wear at work and night wear when we are socializing.Manufacturers add all kinds of things to their perfumes to achieve this effect. Mostly they use an extract from the glands of civet cats or musk deer to mimic human sex pheremones. Some even use real human sex pheremones.
If you find this repulsive, or if you just want a cheaper alternative, you could make your own perfume out of ingredients of entirely vegetable origin. Plants have sex too, don"t forget, and they need to attract bees to do the work of pollination. It may be less fun for them but is useful for us when we want to make a seductive, and entirely vegetarian, perfume.
Some plants are renowned for the seductive potential. Ylang ylang, jasmine, neroli, mimosa are among the most commonly used in the perfume trade. They are mostly exotic flowers. Perhaps flowers have to work harder in the tropics. But there are some good temperate options when it comes to seduction. Roses and even lavender in its own quiet way have passion inducing possibilities.
These are all floral scents. Floral scents always play a big part in a perfume that is meant to be seductive and demine. But a good perfume needs other scents to work well. More subdued scents will make a perfume last longer and will highlight the lighter floral tones. So you need to think about woody scents like sandalwood and juniper.
You might also like to add some spicey scents to your perfume to give it a touch a mystery. Spices have complex scents that are powerful and yet subtle. Some of them tend to make us think of happy festive times. They remind us of Christmas, big meals and roaring log fires. They make us feel secure. Others have a slightly more dangerous edge when combined with the floral scents.
Fruits can give a number of effects. Some, like citrus zest, are fresh and envigorating. Others like berries or mango are richer and sweeter. They can give an interesting effect that makes a good contrast with the florals.
The exact blend of scents you select will depend on your own tastes. But the same ingredients will vary in their effect on different people. This is because of the differences in their own natural body scents and the oiliness of dryness of their skin. A perfume that is very seductive on one person may not be so good on another person.
By blending light, floral top notes, more earthy, woody scents and middle range scents such as lavender you can get a blend of scents in your perfume that works well by not being too obvious.
Blending is important. If you go too much for the luscious, floral scents you can end up with a perfume that is rather sickly. It can be quite nauseating too get too strong a floral scent.
If you go overboard on the floral scents you will defeat you won"t make the perfume more seductive. You may get your man but end up with a headache.
