Oxytocin plays a key role during childbirth, stimulates milk production in mothers, and helps them bond with babies.

The experiment involved 46 female volunteers who were in their 20s and reported being already ‘passionately in love’ with their partners.

The participants found their partners as 15 percent more attractive after inhaling the spray than after inhaling the placebo.

However, women who took contraceptive pills experienced no boost at all by the spray, for unknown reasons, the report said.
