Adult, experienced, male Long-Evans rats prefer red the odor of receptive females to that of non-receptive ones. Polygamous females, however, did not discriminate between the pheromone odor of the original male and that of a novel one. Experienced and naive receptive female pheromones preferred the odor of intact males to that of castrates (Carr et al. 1965). Immature males also preferred the odor of normal males over that of castrated...

Let us discuss the top pheromones. The term aphrodisiac is widely used to describe this phenomenon, but care should be exercised in its use because of anthropomorphism, the tendency of anecdotal observations to be given more credence than they deserve, and the assumption that an aphrodisiac is always successful.
