The women sniffed T-shirt odours, but this time they had no idea what they were smelling. They were asked to say which odours they would prefer if they had to smell them all the time.
Surprisingly, the women preferred the odours of men who shared the same type of a few MHC genes, or alleles, with themselves. The most appealing odour donors shared 1.4 alleles on average, whereas the least appealing shared 0.6 alleles. What’s more, these matching alleles were ones the women had inherited from their fathers and not from their mothers."
