Guys can you get a boner from a certain scent?

Me and my boyfriend went to visit my parents last weekend. I spend the whole weekend with them and fiance just came for Sunday brunch. Suddenly, without any obvious reason he got a boner. It was so awkward. My dad is difficult enough without any provocation, I was so afraid he'd freak out, but they didn't notice anything, thank god. When I asked why he was so turned on he said that I had my "sex perfume" on. It's true I have one perfume for summer, one for winter, one for when I go out, one for working out and also one I usually put on when I think or know we're gonna have sex later. And I was wearing it that day too, because I dropped my summer perfume. But anyways getting a boner just from a scent is that even possible? I'm asking because my mom used to be a model and all guy I bring home usually like her a lot

  • Scent is tied to memories. If he smells a certain scent that typically results in some form of sexual activity, eventually it will likely at least cause some dirty thoughts, if not a full-on boner. I've heard that certain scents instantly increase blood flow to the penis, but this is more programming his brain to associate a scent with a need for an erection.

  • Perfectly possible.

    I can have boner just from scent. Especially if it usually leads to sex.

    It work the same way as when you go to work and you get into this working mood. Or same way as many people get sleepy when they put their pyjamas on. Subconsciousness prepares for what follows.

  • LOL sorry I thought about the Family Guy episode where Lois tried to steal Meg's boyfriend.

    But in all seriousness, it's not your mom, it's prob the scent. Trust me, our brains do associate smell with emotion, hunger, etc., so I really wouldn't be surprised if he genuinely associated the smell with sex.

  • If you only use that one scent when you have sex with him, his brain is going to be hardwired to think that every time he smells that scent, he's getting sex. So it's not unusual that his body responded that way.

  • I get turned and by certain scents... so it makes sense for a guy... esp if they associate the sent with sex

  • it is possible, because you relate a scent with a certain girl or act with that girl, then the mind gets going which raises the blood which wakes up the wood,x

  • Scent is a turnon. I don't remain hard all the time (stopped about 18), but it doesn't take much.

    The right scent, the thoughts and, well, what do you think might happen?

  • He may have associated the scent with thoughts of having sex with you and it was a natural reaction.

  • everything's possible...

    it's even possible to get a boner FROM ABSOLUTELY NOOOOOOOTHING!

  • We can get a boner from thinking about -nothing-. It's not unnatural to be turned on by a feminine smell, don't hold it against him.
