Transjen's lover / lovers might be better placed to supply a qualified comment based on personal experiences and comparisons. However, I don't think the scent of the secretions from the sculpted vulva & vagina would really be the most important issue to someone loving you. Certainly it is unlikely that there would be any female vestibular glands to provide lubrication and scent, and there would be no uterine glands and other endometrial secretions to add to the mix, so, in short, I think the answer's ' no ', even though mucosa may have been added to the vaginal envelope by a skilled surgeon. A lot would depend on ongoing hormonal treatment as hormones strongly affect the scent of skin and mucous membranes in both men and women.

From personal experience I have to say that nothing turns me on to tenderness more than the body smell of a loved one, be it male or female. If I find the person sexually attractive as well, then I get turned on sexually as well. I don't think you need to worry about sexual minutiae - you will have you fill of that when in comes to the counselling that you will receive, both before and after surgery.

It's a bold step you're contemplating. Take your time, talk to a lot of people, and be sure that it is what you really want above anything else.

Good luck, if you do.
