For as long as I have been dating Luis (My boyfriend obviously) I have been practically in love with the smell of his sweat. The scent of his sweat intoxicates me, maybe it's his pheromones (Which I have heard do not exist or that humans cannot detect them, but I still wonder). Sometimes his sweat's specific "Scent" will get me in the mood. I'm really just wondering why I love the smell of his sweat. So I guess if someone may be able to answer my little question that would be nice.

Yes its absolutely the pheromones and its because you love him also. If it was someone elses sweat, it wouldn't appeal to you. Most people do whatever we can to make ourselves squeaky clean, but we're washing away pheromones lol. Sure we don't want to go overboard and reek but you answered your own question.

People smell. Everyone smells. It varies from person to person and culture to culture. It is part of what makes people attracted to them, which is why your siblings tend to smell unattractive--it's nature's way of preventing incest. I can't tell you scientifically how they smell, but yes, people smell and you are attracted to how your boyfriend smells.

For me, one of my all-time favorites about having a boyfriend is that they smell good, and it's not the cologne they are wearing. They just smell.
