Foreplay, hugs, kisses, champagne and oysters can help you prepare for intimacy. Some essential oils have aphrodisiac properties and can cut you.

Research suggests that different types of essential oils can have aphrodisiac properties when inhaled before or during intimacy. In fact, it is known that certain strong smells can cause erections, and women with a stronger sense of smell tend to have more orgasms during sex.

Here’s a look at the essential oils you might want to bring into your bedroom.

Essential oils for sexual desire

Certain herbs have been used for centuries to stimulate male and female sexual desire, performance and pleasure. But few scientific studies have looked at how essential oils can benefit a person’s sex life.

While it is not possible to say that an essential oil is an aphrodisiac, certain properties of essential oils may be associated with a more positive sexual experience.

1. Salvia

Scientific studies suggest that sage may help relieve problems with the female reproductive system, such as painful periods. Research has also shown that clay can reduce stress hormones when used as an essential oil.

While there is no clear evidence for its mood-boosting properties, it’s possible that sage may help create a sexual mood.

2. lavender

Inhaling the scent of lavender has been shown to significantly reduce anxiety and stress. This led to a high level of relaxation, which could be beneficial for the sexual experience.

Sandalwood

Researchers found that women who inhaled sandalwood essential oil and its main compound during sex had an increased mood and a higher level of desire than those who did not.

4. Ylang-ylang

Research suggests that inhaling ylang ylang essential oil is associated with feelings of euphoria and helps relieve depression. One study, a credible source, even showed that applying ylang-ylang oil to the skin can improve self-esteem.

While there is no clear scientific link between ylang-ylang and sexual experience, evidence suggests that it may improve mental health. And since mood is related to sexual experience, ylang-ylang can be a good essential oil for sexual stimulation.

5. Carpolbie

In Africa, men often chew the stalk and root of carlofobin to ingest vegetable oil before sex and improve performance. However, there is no clear scientific understanding of how carpola essential oil affects male sexual performance.

6. Eurycoma longifolia

Studies suggest that eurycoma longifolia, also known as tongkat ali or pasak bumi, increases the ability of male rats to get an erection and also increases the sexual desire of rats who are reluctant to have sex.

In Malaysia, this plant has the reputation of being a potent male aphrodisiac. More research is needed to study the benefits of inhaling essential oil in humans.

7. Ginseng

Researchers believe that ginseng oil releases chemicals in the brain that are associated with better erectile function in men and men.

8. Saturjka khuzestanica

A reliable source of research on male rats suggests that khuzestanica essential oil may increase fertility, sperm production, and litter size in rats. The evidence that this oil can increase fertility in men is unclear.

Essential oils for female stimulation

Women who are more sensitive to smells report more orgasms than women who are not. So, if you have a good nose, your sex can benefit from the use of essential oils.
