The smell of a man's sweat differs according to what mood he is in and women can pick up on changes that indicate attraction, according to new research.
The study, led by Dr Denise Chen, assistant professor of psychology at Rice University, in Texas, America, involved introducing two types of male sweat to 19 women in their 20s - one type was labelled 'normal', the other 'sexual'.
The sweat was gathered from a selection of men who had polyester pads attached to their armpits.
The 'normal' sweat was gathered during a 20-minute session in which the men were asked to watch educational videos.
They were then asked to watch 20 minutes of an erotic video, during which the 'sexual' sweat was gathered.
The female participants were exposed to these different scents while researchers monitored their brain activity.
The women did not realise it but their brains not only recognised the scents but responded to them.
Dr Chen said the 'sexual' sweat lit up different regions of the participants' brains.
She added her results suggested the female brain is capable of recognising the smell of a man who is attracted to her.

I have often thought that if I ever actually knew what women were thinking, it would have caused me to blow my brains out.
This brings a whole new meaning to the term “No Sweat”.
Hell if women knew half the time what they were thinking...!
Want to hear a story?
Years ago my 9 yr old daughter went to her first NHL game with her dad.
When they got home I was quizzing her on what a good time they had, when I asked about her favorite part of the game she said it was “when the players took off their helmets and they were all sweaty”....no kidding she said that.
To this day she loves hockey players.
Mel knows...or at least he did know:
Point taken..............
Women can sense when a man needs a bath.
They want.... To be safe.
Looks like I picked the wrong week to start showering...
All those years, when younger, that I tried flowers, dinners and candy, when all I needed was horny sweat. Dang!
Bump for later to grab that gif
What kind of females were those, trannies? Man oh man, if I smell a guy's sweat, I would say, take a shower, please! No way would I get close to a sweaty guy, much less think of doing anything else with him.
How much did this “study” cost the taxpayers???
.....But then again many of us on the male side remember preovulation days amoung our female Classmates in Hight School.
