The morning after a hookup/sleepover is always a weird thing for dudes. If you've got work the next morning and a girl in your bed, it's a bit of a gray area as to what should happen when you've gotta scoot. Some guys have a strict rule on this topic: she leaves when you leave. The idea of a girl with unfettered access to every drawer in your room is frightening for some. I get that.
But, I have a more laid-back approach. If there's a beautiful girl sleeping in my bed and she doesn't have anywhere to be, I can't bring myself to wake her up when I gotta take off. But honestly, the thought of her padding around my house with messy hair in my t-shirt looking for the coffee maker makes my day. You can't get much cuter than that.
However, I also can't shake that weird feeling of coming home from work eight hours later to a room that I left someone in while I was gone. Things don't look like how I left them. Usually the bed is made (something I rarely do and serious kudos to the girls who do this) and there's sorta this general Goldilocks and the Three Bears feeling to it all.
But what totally kicks this experience up to the next level is when a girl sprays a little bit of her perfume in the room before she leaves. I get home from work, open the door, and suddenly I'm lost in a fog thinking of her. They say that the sense of smell is tied closest to memory in your brain. Pardon me while I instantly relive all the amazingness our date the night before. I can't get the girl out of my head after that point. Then, as the perfume fades, my head automatically turns to thoughts of "When can I see this girl next?" She's got me.
Now, this of course is a pro move. If it's a first or second sleepover, then it's probably too soon for the perfume room spritz. After that, it's fair game. Obviously moderation is key here, but it's a secret weapon that reels me in every time.

Girls already leave their scent on everything they've touched when they sleep over--the bed, the pillows, maybe a shirt you lent them while you two were sleeping. Why in the hell would you want to cover sleepover pheromones up with perfume?
No one's covering anything up; we're ENHANCING it by adding a bit of perfume to the air. I've done this with guys I've really liked.
I once left a small vial of my perfume in someone's bag before they left for a trip, trying to be cute, and they made it a point to text me and tell me they were leaving it on the train.
I guess you shouldn't leave you're scent everywhere?!
creepy fucking shit
Always gotta make the bed and scribble a nice little note for him to come home to. Works every single time. Straight butter.
my notes end up as a coaster.... miserable.
this made my heart smile
total win! I love walking in and having the faint scent of her left in the room. I always forget that thats gunna happen so its a surprise every time!
do all guys think this way? like what if you give a girl a ride home in the morning... do you come back her faint scent left in your room and be pleasantly surprised? or is it just the romantic ones?
Unless you're trying to NOT remember her, girl scent is always a good thing.
Perfume is gross. Deliberate perfume leaving in one's absence? Skip it! Body scent = yum.
^This.
You might think you're enhancing your scent, but you're really just diluting the girl smells that take us guys back to the previous night's memories.
I think you guys are way overthinking the "natural body scent" of girls which is actually the combination of her shampoo, hair products, body wash, lotion, and deodorant.
