The influence of odors on health and relationships

For centuries, in the practice of relationships within the "man-woman" tandem, the rule that the way to the heart of a man lies through the stomach is almost the most important. But the research of biochemists and physiologists in the second half of the 20th century made significant changes in the trajectory of the "love path", moving its beginning to the bridge of the nose.


The smells of a person's life are very important. The organs of the sense of smell are directly related to the centers of the brain, which direct our sexual impulses, feelings of hunger, thirst, aggressiveness, yes, anything. The sense of smell appeared in living organisms long before sight and hearing, and if modern "homo sapiens" is incapable of sniffing air as beautifully as a polar wolf, this does not mean that a man is immune to qapaham. Most often, we do not even notice the smell, but we act according to his order, subconsciously perceiving his commands. Since sdoistoricheskih times sorcerers in the performance of magical rites, and perfumers - for "seduction rites" competently used various flavors. The person can be influenced by his abasement.

Japanese scientists have studied the effect of smells on the brain, resulting in recommendations for dispersing in the air the work spaces of anti-stress and stimulating aromas. Firm "SHisejdo" already more than twenty years sates atmosphere of offices and shops in pairs of mint and lavender, as these beneficial smells stimulate increase of working capacity. Pleasant, inconspicuous fragrances of small concentration show a positive physiological effect on a person. The air of the gardens, fields, seashore, pine, birch forests - these are real air vitamins, which are extremely useful. And our memory preserves the smell of freshly mown grass or evening campfire on a "raid on nature" and never forgets it. Pleasant smells reduce the intracranial pressure, and unpleasant - increase.

Well, by the way, about the way to the heart through the stomach. Here, too, can not do without the very nose that we traditionally advise not to pop, where not necessary. First, smells through the olfactory receptorswill salivary glands, and then the team will go to the digestive organs. No one, whose heart is trampled on the path, will not start eating, if the delicious flavors do not tickle his nostrils and then purred: "How tasty!".

The fact that smells are a peculiar form of communication, no one will contest - this is an axiom. And people, like their smaller brethren, communicate through smells, coordinate their behavior. Our body releases volatile substances every second, which carry information about us. These hormones of communication were called pheromones (defeated phero-bear and hormao-I set in motion). There are pheromones of happiness, anxiety, sexual pheromones, pheromones of various physiological states. They are recorded by representatives of our species (Homo sapiensili reasonable person) and can affect their behavior. Pheromones act selectively, their different groups are directed separately by women, separately for men. The representatives of the weak and stronger sex have a completely different reaction to pheromones, that is, men and women perceive smells differently. "Having heard" the tantalizing scent of women's spirits, the male male starts neighing and hoofing, take it warm. What is the "way through the stomach"! And the other woman standing next to this smell will react calmly, and will also critically comment on it.

This has long enjoyed the perfumers. The legendary perfume "Chanel No. 5", released in 1921 by Gabriel Chanel, "Miss Dior", "Diorissimo" - the creations of Christian Dior in 1956, has been helping people to find a vampire for so many years. And after all, they were creating certainty over laboratory mice, completely trusting their practical experience and intuition. Today, everyone is engaged in perfumery, who is not lazy, a famous celebrity who produces respect for herself releases a perfume named after herself, and even several times a year. With such goods on the shelves, a curious situation may arise. Choosing the fragrance for yourself and to your taste, you will acquire a spirit that will not attract, but frighten off possible suitors. And the spirits will be the most fashionable, and from one price the head becomes dizzy, but ... And it's all because the spirits are chosen incorrectly. They do not suit you. It would be nice if in the selection process there was a man nearby and it is not necessary that it should be your chosen one. Even if you think that the peasants are not meaningless in perfume, his opinion will come from an intuitive, subconscious perception. And this is what you need.
