Love Essential Oil Blend
Our senses are hugely important to our experience, feelings, and perception of love. Sight and touch are perhaps the most easily called upon senses. Taste and pleasure go hand in hand, as our bodies have appetites…in many ways. Hearing words and sounds has a great impact on the depth of our feelings. But it is our sense of scent that if often under-appreciated and under-utilized.

Mix all together and diffuse in your Aroma-Infinity essential oil diffuser.
What we smell triggers extremely powerful messages to and from the brain. Some aromas bring to mind memories and feelings of another time and place. Others prompt the release of chemicals that bring emotions and desires to the surface. The smell of coffee, freshly cut grass, pumpkin pie, certain perfumes of people in our past…this sense is connected to the limbic region of our brain (the emotional part) and is pretty much out of our hands once we catch a whiff. The nose knows. Thank you, olfactory system!
“We can be tricked by what we see and hear but not by what we smell.” – Madonna
In fact, smells play such a key role in human attraction at the scientific level. Research on pheromones – the unique chemical signals of attraction which are released and detected by others – is so interesting. How incredible that such chemical communication can guide nature’s breeding in the animal (and plant) kingdom! Although not fully understood in humans, this is a fun read about how smells can help women sniff out compatible mating partners, reproductively-speaking.
With smell, perhaps the most primal of our senses, aromatherapy can reveal a whole other level to intimacy. But essential oils are more than just a scent.
Essential oils can:
- Rid negative emotions of bitterness, and resentment to encourage positive ones like forgiveness, compassion, and transformation.
- Settle relationship conflicts and forge stronger bonds of trust and passion.
- Enhance our own personal confidence, thus increasing our attraction.
- Boost our libido which increases physical intimacy.
How can you use these oils?
- Love is in the air, especially when essential oils are diffused before, during, (even after) intimate moments!
- Combine one or more of these with some almond oil (a female aphrodisiac scent) or other light oil for homemade massage oil. Drop some in bath water to be enjoyed alone or together
- Add a drop or two to skin and beauty items, like lotions and hair products.
- Make a room/linen spray by using 10-20 drops in a 2-oz. glass spritz bottle.
- Wear as perfume behind ears, neck, wrists, cleavage, bikini line, etc.
