Blog post 8: Truth Behind Fragrance



I can't go a day without a perfume. I always make sure that I have one inside my bag. Wearing a perfume really makes me feel complete and neat. What are the effects of wearing them? Is it good or bad? 

As I was browsing, I got interested in this article entitled The Emotional Effects of Fragrances. Perfumes can be as perfect as an accessory. It can also boost your self confidence. 



Other scent of perfumes are deeper that could hit us at emotional and neurological levels.
When we say neurological levels, it refers to the lowest segment of the spinal cord with normal sensory and motor function on both sides of the body. It states there that our sense of smell is strong and neurologically linked to both taste and memory. That is why our fragrances can be uplifting, calming, and also reminds us of bright days or wild nights. 

In physiology, inhaling a fragrance stimulates the part of our brain where taste is analyzed and memories are stored. It also connects to the areas such as heart rate, blood pressure, breathing, stress levels, and hormone balance. Out of our five senses, only the sense of smell is connected directly to our emotional control center part of the brain. It is the same place where fear, anxiety, depression, anger, and joy resonate from.

There is a whole arm of fragrance that uses scented oils and extracts for physical and mental purposes, to soothe and heal, relax and inspire. Scents have been used for centuries to reduce stress and emotional trauma, increase energy and inspire moods.

Nowadays, science is looking more into how and why certain fragrances makes us feel the way we do. They also found out how some common fragrances notes can help affect or improve our moods such as stress, memory and concentration, libido, fear, depression and grief. 


Why wearing a perfume makes someone attractive?


I found an article entitled Perfume science: The scent of a man and it states there that to attract a woman by wearing scent, a man must attract himself first. From the word perfume, it has feminine overtones to many male ears. For men, they can be sold deodorant and aftershave, but the idea of all those dinky little bottles with their fussy paraphernalia is too much for the sensitive male ego. 

According to the researchers who have been investigating the problem found out that appropriate scents can improve the mood of those who wear them. They also discovered that when a man changes his natural body odor it can alter his self-confidence to such an extent that it also changes how attractive women find him. 

Therefore, I conclude that there are advantages in wearing perfume; boosts self confidence and makes you look expensive. And lastly, you will catch the attention of the person you like. :)
