The use of essential oils is an easy way to fully involve the olfactory senses during a sexual experience. Bringing scent to a sexual experience is an easy and fun way to instantly turn up the sexual heat. Scents have been used for centuries as a tool of seduction to arouse the body and mind and to set the mood for sex. The goal is to use scents to trigger release of "feel good" endorphins in the brain. The flood of these endorphins take you and your partner to a euphoric state that lovers often strive for but rarely achieve. Simple blends of essential oils immediately reawaken our sense of smell and trigger that exciting endorphin rush.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    Eliminate any other existing scents that could interfere with your chosen mixture of essential oils.

  2. Step 2

    Place several drops each of iris, cinnamon and orange oils into an electric diffuser or an oil lamp filled with unscented oil. Light the lamp in the bathroom after starting a shower or drawing a bath. The scent mixes with the humidity primes your senses. Expose your lover to this fragrant aphrodisiac while he feels the heat of the moment. The combination is a powerful sexual appetizer.

  3. Step 3

    Combine scent and touch to enhance the brain and body's response to both. Massage has been used for centuries as a way to engage the senses and make the body more sexually responsive. Mix equal amounts of ylang ylang, jasmine, sandalwood and rose with heated or self-heating fragrance-free massage oil. Give your partner a sensual massage with this combination of essential oils. Together, these scents trigger the release of endorphins that result in a warm, euphoric feeling. Add mood music and let the permeating fragrance of the essential oils tie the separate senses of touch, smell and sound together.

  4. Step 4

    Experiment with blending your own custom scents. Remember the combinations that stimulate you and your partner the most. Have fun discovering your personal sex-enhancing scent.

  5. Step 5

    Use the essential oil combination that stimulates both you and your partner. It only takes a small dose of the scent to surprise your partner at unexpected moments. Place a small sachet in his gym bag so a hint of the scent is released when he opens the bag. Place a few drops of the mixture onto a small piece of card stock and slip it into her lingerie drawer or briefcase so she carries the scent and the memory of your special time together with her all day long.

Tips & Warnings
  • Scents considered for centuries to be aphrodisiacs for women include rose oil, rosewood oil, neroliy, ylang ylang and clary sage.
  • Scents considered to increase sexual response in men are lavender, patchouli, sandalwood, jasmine, cardamon, coriander and cinnamon.
  • Scent is the strongest memory trigger of all the senses. Keep your special essential oil sex blend handy to keep your lover thinking about your amazing sex even when you are apart.
