The university's erotic herbarium and aphrodisiac plants

Jean-Louis Cuq
Former University President

Since the dawn of time, humans have been looking for ways to enhance their desire, erotic sensations and sexual potency. Recipes for "love potions" have been handed down from generation to generation for centuries. Aphrodisiacs were first found in nature, until the arrival of the famous blue pill, Viagra. Were natural aphrodisiacs to be forgotten? On the contrary, today we're witnessing an unprecedented revival of interest in natural aphrodisiacs, most of them of plant origin. Dozens of books, articles and magazines have been published on the subject.
