Have ever noticed that you love the smell of your significant other? Or that after a game of basketball, the smell of your best friend's shirt does not offend you? There is a reason for that and we are so glad to have come across this article on the Hebrew language website, Ice which brought this brilliant study and the even more brilliant scientist whose research led to this discovery, to our attention.
Scientists at Israel’s Weizmann Institute have determined people with similar body odors are most likely to get along with one another. Using an 'electronic nose', a device called an eNose, to smell a group of volunteers, they were able to predict with over 70% accuracy which pairs of individuals were most likely to get along with each other.
