Few things can stop us dead in our tracks, trigger memories, and evoke powerful emotion, quite like scents. Check out this blog post for some killer info about our fragrance oils, why our sense of smell has so much power over us, and how to harness it… for your pleasure.

A Little Bit of Scent Science.

Maybe this has happened to you: you’re standing in line at the checkout when someone walks by, a familiar whiff of musk in the air making you pause mid text. It’s the same cologne your best friend wears, and although you’re already back to your phone, the fragrance continues to hold your focus.

It isn’t possession or a bewitching, but it’s something comparable in power: our senses of smell. With its connection to the parts of our brains that process memory and emotion, the simplest of aromas can alter and influence our moods. A 2014 study showed that smell can heavily influence our perceived attraction. Participants viewed pictures of subjects and then were later placed in front of them. What the study showed was that smelling pleasant boosted one’s attractiveness significantly when compared to a scent free encounter.

Pheromones, You Say?

Nature has its pheromones- natural chemicals that animals use to draw in one another. These scent based hormones play a major part in communication, everyday interactions and courtship. While we may not produce our own natural pheromones, we’ve been making our own for quite some time… fragrance oils are one way that has evolved through the ages. Egyptians distilled and applied lilies while ancient Greeks boiled flowers, herbs and spices to enhance their natural odors and express their status.

Going hand in hand with our direct smell to memory link, perhaps you’d like to recreate a steamy memory with a lover, enthralling them with familiar scents to match the mood. Want to blow their mind with a new experience? Spicing things up can greatly enhance our times of intimacy. A fresh perfume can seal the deal the same way a new set of lingerie can. However you choose to play with scent, you’ll be on your sweetheart’s mind any time they catch a whiff in the future.

Harness the Power of Your Favorite Fragrance Oils.

Here at Vampfangs, we’ve got you covered. Pop in your fangs and thrill your love with the supernatural and sophisticated scent of Immortal. The soft, classic undertones of Red Egyptian Musk and spice send the message that you are a creature of the night, and along with your elegance comes a bit of a bite. Or you can take command of the night with the help of Black Cloak. Refreshing and exhilarating, this fragrance oil will leave your significant other breathless. Indulge in the darkness with undertones of dark woodlands, feeling as confident as a Vamp under the moonlight.

Unleash the striking Vampiress you’ve always known yourself to be. Funeral Parlor recreates the aroma of its namesake, this scent celebrates the fascinating line between life and death with tones of lilies, spice, nag champa, and other funeral flora. Light some Blood and Roses incense to turn your space into a Vampire’s den, ready for romance.

Create Your Unique Fragrance Blend.

Our fragrances can be layered to create a unique blend, too! The sweetness of Funeral Parlor’s florals mingle deliciously with Immortal’s seductive, ethereal notes to create something unmistakably unique. Riding solo this February? You can still take advantage of the benefits of our fragrance oils! Remember that study we mentioned? It turns out a good chunk of that added sexiness comes not just from the fragrance itself, but from the confidence it gives the wearer. 

NEW Vampfangs Fragrance Oils.

Already familiar with all of our fragrances? Think again! If you haven’t smelled the two fragrance oils we released last February… you don’t know what you are missing. Fresh and lively, the uplifting floral scent of The Lovers sets the mood for passion and romance. If you’ve ever hoped to capture the sweet notes of roses in their prime, The Lovers is your answer.

Tired of roses? Perhaps the devilishly delicious citrus tones of Bloodlust are just what you’re hunting for. A note of blood orange invigorates the senses, each breath sweeter than the next. Bloodlust invites you to indulge in the pleasures of life. Be warned: this unique scent will tempt any vamp to sink their teeth into you!
