“Pheromone Maxxing”: The Dating Trend That May Be The Worst Advice On TikTok

 A bizarre new TikTok dating trend called “pheromone maxxing” is encouraging people to skip showers, ditch deodorant and embrace their natural body odour in the hope of becoming more attractive. The theory is based on the idea that our natural scent contains pheromones that could influence attraction. There is some science showing that body odour can affect how people perceive one another, and research suggests scent can play a role in mate choice and relationship formation. But here's the catch: scientists have not conclusively identified a human pheromone that reliably makes someone more sexually attractive. Research into human pheromones remains controversial, with studies often producing inconsistent or difficult-to-replicate results.
