Libido Patch promises to heighten women's sexual desire
Experts say a third of women at any given time suffer from a loss of libido and many others from stress and depression. Aromatherapy is thought to help. It's nothing new. From candles, essential oils to special diffusers, it’s been around for thousands of years. It’s first recorded use by the ancient Egyptians.
What is new is Scentuelle, called the passion patch or happy patch. It was developed in the United Kingdom. It uses our sense of smell to help light the fire.
"I know about aromatherapy, but I didn't know how it would play out in relation to libido, so I'm curious to see over time how that will work-out," says Mary Keller, a mother of two, who’s been married for 20 years.
The non-transdermal patch goes on the inside of your wrist each morning and you give it a sniff every hour. Its scent molecules target the mood centers of the brain, mimicking dopamine, the body’s “feel good” hormone.
Keller, who is 50 years old, hopes it works.
“I think as women approach menopause and go through that, that kind of dies down a little bit.
This might be a good way to revive it without it being invasive to the body.
Bonnie Rose, a naturopathic doctor and aromatherapist, says she was skeptical of the patch’s claims. But then she tried it and changed her opinion.
"It did initiate feelings of desire,” she admits, “so being such a skeptic, I'm impressed."
