The key to getting that d? Smelling like a donut, if one TikTok relationship expert’s viral advice is to be believed.


Relationship expert @ask_kimberly shared what she described as “one of the juiciest flirting hacks,” she had “ever learned” throughout her career, the irresistible smell of an old-fashioned donut (or whatever donut you prefer).

“If you want a guy to instantly think that you’re like, attractive like he’s like ‘oh my god she is so hot,’ here’s what you’re gonna do. You’re gonna run to the store and get yourself a scent that makes you smell literally as close as humanly possible to a donut,” she instructed.


“Now you’re probably thinking, but Kimblery, why would I want to smell like a donut?”


“This is why,” gesturing to a block of text summarizing a 2014 study from the Smell and Taste Treatment Research Foundation (it’s real, we checked), that found that scents “black licorice and doughnut” as well as “pumpkin pie and doughnut” increased “median penile-blood flow” by 31.5% and 20%.


So take it from Kimberly – if you want to achieve the creampie – you need to eat the creampie.
