Summary
The recovery of desire and ability to mate in animals can be evoked completely by the odor of a new mate, demonstrating pheromonal interaction. While humans still debate the existence of the vomeronasal or Jacobson's organ, there is evidence of pheromonal effects between individuals.

Hormones have a profound influence on a large number of systems in our biology and they dictate our attraction mechanism to others, whether it’s someone we just met and don't trust yet, or someone we’re already paired with.

Summary
Hormones have a profound influence on a large number of systems in our biology and they dictate our attraction mechanism to others, whether it’s someone we just met and don't trust yet, or someone we’re already paired with. The ability to sense the chemical states of others, either consciously or subconsciously, plays an important role in deciding if we want to spend time with them or not.
