Why Do Strippers All Smell the Same?

Special Feature

This past weekend a group of friends and I went to Cancún. One evening we stumbled into a strip club and found that the dancers there smelled exactly like the strippers back in the States. In fact, the women at clubs in Nevada and California all seem to wear the same perfume. It’s a scent I’ve never smelled on a woman I’ve dated. Is there a secret combination of oils and pheromones that strippers use to separate men from their money?

It’s no secret—it’s baby lotion. Jennifer Axen and Leigh Phillips, authors of
The Stripper’s Guide to Looking Great Naked, explain that dancers often mix their favorite scent with lotion to get better coverage and help the perfume last longer. It’s known as the angel-devil mix because the smell is both familiar and sexy.
