Human Pheromone Sciences

Human Pheromone Sciences, Inc. was a biotechnology company focused on the research, development, and commercialization of synthetic human pheromones. The company's core business revolved around its proprietary 'vomeropherin' technology, which targeted the vomeronasal organ to elicit specific emotional and physiological responses. Its products were primarily licensed for use in the consumer fragrance and personal care markets, most notably through partnerships with major brands like Victoria's Secret and Avon. While the company initially explored therapeutic applications for mood and stress, it transitioned primarily into a licensing model for consumer goods before eventually ceasing active operations.
