The Pheromone Myth

“The pheromone term seems to have mainly attracted perfume manufacturers and people looking for the fountain of youth. It’s just not the way things are. It would be like saying a particular colour is why we choose a mate. That’s just not how relationships are formed.”
 — Dr. Richard Doty, director of the University of Pennsylvania’s Smell and Taste Center, denies the existence of pheromones., “the mysterious chemical signals that trigger attraction.” The real reason you fall for someone is because they have an ass that just won’t quit.
