The university's erotic herbarium and aphrodisiac plants

Jean-Louis Cuq
Former president of the University

Since the dawn of time, humans have sought ways to enhance their desire, erotic sensations, and sexual potency. Recipes for "love potions" have been passed down from generation to generation for centuries. It was primarily from nature that humans drew their aphrodisiacs until the arrival of the famous blue pill, Viagra. Would natural aphrodisiacs then fall into oblivion? Quite the contrary, today we are witnessing an unprecedented resurgence of interest in natural aphrodisiacs, most of which are plant-based. Dozens of books, articles, and magazines have been published on this topic.
