What does sex smell like?

I once had to book a hotel in a hurry in a city I don’t normally visit. It seemed nice on the internet, but it was just a teenager fuck-palace in reality. My room smelled like a cross between a wet dog and the Bison exhibit at the zoo. It took a full can of economy size Lysol (and a demand that the front desk change all of the sheets) for me to even stay over night there.

Polyamines.

No, really.

As much as I hate to admit it, there is some definite sensory nexus between semen and decomposing dead bodies (I’m familiar with both).

:smiley: That was the very first thinig I thought when I read the title.

I figure anal sex smells of papaya, then.

It smells damp to me. Not musty, not mildewy (god forbid), just damp. It’s a clean kind of damp, but with a note of something indescribable.

Seconded. It smells like vagina and sweat I guess, but what does vagina smell like? Pungent and a little sweet is all I can come up with.

That’s a fairly good description of what sex smells like when you’re lying there panting afterwards. There’s definitely a cloying, acidic quality to the odor that doesn’t match up with the smells of any of the primary juices involved when it sits around, something I’ve only noticed when I haven’t been one of the parties involved.

Thank god I’m done with college and dorm-living.

I just read the thread that Gfactor linked, and I can’t believe someone said a “chlorine pool”. That’s exactly it, at least for MY contribution (male).

I remember the first time I had a wet dream, I woke up and thought, “Wow! It smells like Clorox!”

Now, I always get a hint of ammonia, afterwards. I guess you and I should conduct our business well away from each other, 'cause you don’t want to mix bleach and ammonia …

I’ve heard this asked before in some other places, but I’d like to know here. Having sex produces a very specific smell (in my experience). So what sort of collection of scents does it involve? Could I collect and market this? It would be a very popular spray-on I believe.

Sex smells like tequila and red jello.

I think you’re thinking of foreplay.

An ex of mine once remarked that sex smelled like Filet O’ Fish. Good sex, anyways.

Now I giggle to myself whenever someone I know orders the Filet O’ Fish. Not that this happens often, and not that this wasn’t a reason to mock someone thoroughly even before this association was made… but now I just giggle harder.

Well, and then there is basic hygiene… :eek:

I guess I’ve never smelled days old semen/vaginal discharge. I am grateful for this. (and I’m grateful that both my college dorm-mates and I for both years had long distance BFs). :slight_smile:

That’s a common reference but I’ve never been with a woman that had any kind of fishy smell about her except once when my wife had a yeast problem. Aside from that, never. I’ll think of this next time I have seafood though. :stuck_out_tongue:

While this may be true, I’ve never been with a Filet O’ Fish that smells like fish. :smiley: There’s a vaguely generic McDonald’s smell to them.

(I’m not really bendable enough to comment on what women smell like down there… I imagine I’d be much more popular with the boys if I could, though)
