subtle fragrance. The composition of the top note is of mandarin, water lily and peony. The middle

vanilla and cedar. Realm is the first perfume using human pheromone and is recommended for romantic use.
A seductive scent
The use of pheromone is revolutionary in the perfume world. The use of synthetic human
pheromones can arouse a kind of sixth sense - a silent language in humans.
Actually pheromone literally means "to carry excitement". It is known to stimulate species-specific biological responses in animals.
The company behind realm perfume
The Erox corporation is based in Freemont, California and is the only company that markets a fragrance for both men and women
that contains pheromone for humans. The patented pheromone surely works.
[News Blog] Human pheromone
In order to make effective use of human pheromones in perfume, one must first know what is meant by "human
pheromones", then
establish particular substances which fit the criteria's. A debate has been going on regarding whether the term "pheromone"
is appropriate for use humans. The term "pheromones" was originally defined in relation to insects like butterflies, but
arbitrary restriction of its use to particular classes of animals has diminished the use of the concept.
The word "semiochemical" has been suggested in place of "pheromone" for use with humans. However, the idea is confusing
and obscures the distinction between the two types of substances in humans. Instead the term "semiochemical" includes
pheromone, but also includes substances not only detected by the olfactory system
According to the company, the pheromones works to bring about a calmer and more confident state. It's not proven
, but a response in a little studied human organ in the nose has been observed. The response was much
stronger than with other known pheromones from mammals. The human pheromones don't have a smell themselves so standard
perfume products are mixed with the pheromones in the Realm perfume products.
