How Different Genders React To Different Smells

The purpose of this experiment was to find out how genders react to twelve different perfumes/musks. The perfumes were not labled by name, but by number, and there was a mystery scent as the control, which was just water. When the male and female participants took part in this experiment, the genders would recieve a sheet of paper, with their name, and other information would be recorded. In this experiment, nine describing emotions were used for the genders to express their feelings about the perfumes and musks. After choosing a scent, the genders would smell the scent chosen on a clean cottonball, and put thhe number of the scent (ranging from one to twelve, and a check for the mystery), to the next emotion they feel when the male or female smells the scent. This is repeated a second time, and a third for the mystery scent.

After completing this experiment, it was found that the male participants liked the female perfumes and used the words enraged, luscious, blissful, and blanched and the women chose most of the musks and chose the emotions blanched, airy, luscious, tart, and strong for the most part. Both genders chose luscious and blanched together as a group.
