The invention concerns novel, non-therapeutic fragrance compositions and other compositions containing an odorant and a naturally occurring human pheromone. The invention also concerns fragrance compositions containing mixtures of naturally occurring human pheromones. The human pheromones disclosed are steroids which desirably belong to two distinct chemical classes: 16-Androstenes and Estrenes.
Compositions and methods according to the inventive subject matter make use of human pheromones, and particularly androst-16-en steroids to achieve a desired non-behavioral effect in a person exposed to such compositions. Most preferably, contemplated compositions increase exercise strength and/or stamina, and reduce airway inflammation (e.g., sinusitis). Typically, the composition is a dry composition in a container that allows evaporation of the pheromone at a rate effective to achieve the non-behavioral effect.
