 Do women fall for these scams as well?
Usually it is just sad men that fall for it. It is a scam, like breast and penis enlargement pills.
About the only known smell that works is women feeling more relaxed when they smell a man's sweat.
Attracting the opposite sex with pheromones or even a smell is complete and utter nonsense. Most men don't even like women to wear strong perfumes.
From wikipedia "Some body spray advertisers claim that their products contain human sexual pheromones which act as an aphrodisiac. In the 1970's "copulins" were patented as products which release human pheromones, based on research on rhesus monkeys.[15] Subsequent to that androstenone, axillary sweat, and "vomodors" have been claimed to act as human pheromones. [16] Despite these claims, no pheromonal substance has ever been demonstrated to directly influence human behavior in a peer reviewed study."
If there was a substance that worked then its inventor would be richest person in history.
It is important to remember that sexually we are a lot different from animals. Women unlike most other species make it a point NOT to signal when they are fertile. This ensures the male will stick around the whole time.
