Romantic attention and affection enhance a woman's well-being at any age, and can contribute to her overall health and happiness. The significant results of this study show that a topical pheromone, worn with perfume as directed in the protocol can increase the affection postmenopausal women receive from their male partners.

A double-blind, placebo-controlled study of a synthesized female pheromone was conducted with regularly menstruating, university women. A vial of either synthesized pheromone or placebo was selected blindly and added to a subject's perfume.
