Look in the dictionary for a definition of sensuality, depending upon the version and maker, varying definitions exist. Ask any person to define sensuality, and still more interpretations will be offered.
Sensuality in it’s truest form is not to be confused with sex. Sensuality means to be aroused by things of beauty, luxury and refinement, to be aware of and explore the world, life and love with all the senses.
To be sensual is to be aware of and appreciate the natural, ecstasy that can be found in the sensuous, passionate world of feeling, inhabited by poets, artists, song writers and dreamers. Being sensual brings to us a life felt through our senses, seen only in the world of spirit.
Sensuality Test
Sensuality is, in essence, how in tune you are with your senses. Do you notice smells, textures, sounds? How sensual you are plays a key role in both your sex life and your overall ability to derive pleasure from life. Find out what the use of your senses implies about life and love with the Sensuality Test.
Fill in the questionnaire, responding as you truthfully would in such situations. If you have never been in one or more of the situations, respond as you most likely would. After finishing the Sensuality Test, you will receive a detailed, personalized interpretation of your score that includes diagrams, information on the test topic and tips.

I scored 90%
What does your score mean?
You are one sensual human being! Yours is a hedonistic attitude, and you deeply enjoy the sensual pleasures that life has to offer. Your senses are also inextricably linked to your emotions and certain sensual stimuli can evoke strong feelings. Therefore you tend to be emotionally passionate. Because you get so much pleasure from your senses, you are eager to experiment in life. This is positive since you can make great discoveries and experience a lot of pleasure. It is important, however, to keep yourself in check since people who delight is sensual pleasures are at a slightly increased risk for addictions (substance, sex, love, etc.). All in all, you have the innate ability to use your senses to enjoy what this life has to offer! -

I scored 54%.... being the insensitive ******* that I am.
You seem to have found a balance between absolute asceticism and utter hedonism. You are able to appreciate and even lose yourself in the sights, smells, sounds, tastes, and feel of life. Nonetheless, you aren't totally pleasure-driven and you are able to keep your emotions balanced. You are able to stay focused and to persevere, even though you might be trudging through a particularly dull or insipid period of life. If you would like, you can intensify your sensual side by using your eyes, ears, nose, and fingertips to explore all of the stimuli that whirl around you at any given time. Walk through the park smelling the mown grass, absorbing the vast blueness of the sky, hearing the laughter of children, and the sound of your breath. You only have one life so just make sure that you are not missing out on some sensual pleasures of the moment. -

I got 61, those damn furry animals!

@Claire - you didn't copy paste either --- my eyes are narrowing an my lips are preparing to pout (especially the bottom one).
Let's hope you and loredan haven't set a trend for not posting "the good stuff".
Ahem ... will the next blogger please copy and paste the text from their results here as well as their score?

@monkettale
OMG it shows! You're right.
@claire
I'm not touching your "don't like to pet furry animals" because it makes me SNORT!
... think about it.. lol
Where are those @~@? found them & edited whew! -
Sorry too many tabs open -- I crashed my browser there and double posted.
Okay so I admit that I have a few few passions .. {shrug} ... I can't cook worth a damn so at least I have something going for me. Hmmm --- making great discoveries and experiencing a lot of pleasure does fit I've got to admit.
I'm not alone annie scored 1 point above me.
What did you lurkers score hhmmmm? -

@tgknife
Well now isn't it interesting? You need a lady friend to take you to the park and to motivate you to intensify your sensual side by using your eyes, ears, nose, and fingertips, etc. to explore all of the stimuli.
Hmmmm ... there are 9 lurkers out there. I suggest that everyone could pour a tiny wee dram of something into a glass and suck it back. Then suck it up and take the test. Come on ... you know you really want to.
@annie
I see that realtionship remark down there and I'm scolling. We were flipping serious all week gal -- please don't go there on me.

Wow...I'm amazed at the high scores! I scored 37 ... the explanation of the score is the same as good knifes. Hmmm....
I can't imagine scoring in the 90s or even anything over 40 to be honest.-
@drowsey
Are you by chance single and attracted to parks?
"I can't imagine scoring in the 90s or even anything over 40 to be honest."
Oh sure you can. Free your mind [senses] and your ass will follow -- I guarantee it ...lol
Say what you don't like parks, trees, flowers, a blanket and and an agreeable companion ... need I draw a you a picture? Like I said to tgknife -- you need a friend to take you to the park and to motivate you to intensify your sensual side by using your eyes, ears, nose, and fingertips, etc. to explore all of the stimuli.

OK, so I'm on the higher side, but not too high.

I think I only scored so high because of the art question - duh, I'm an artist, obviously I'm going to go all gaga over artworks LOL.
And the furry animals one too.
But I HATE PDA and the whole "drowning in your lovers stare"? Yeesh, I have no desire to do that. -

@tgknife
Would you be surprised to hear that my true called is writing erotica and, that I until a couple of years ago I was a photographers' and artists' model, sans clothing? -
@Don
I have to bite my tongue when I hear bloggers wondering about what to write to increase traffic and make an income. But, unless they score 90% and over they are not like to be successful writing erotica.
@Anok
There's not a single full length photo of me on the net. There is only one of my face and I'm not telling where. Also understand that I had a contract --- no identifiable face shots and absolutely no between the legs shots. When I say "erotica" I mean fine art. I do NOT mean prono. I do NOT mean cheescake. -
I scored a 53. Seems fair. This was fun - Nards

@DonLweis
I do write erotica. I have yet to publish it for public consumption. I no longer pose naked. I have never worked for any artist or photographer on spec. I knew all of my employers personally (some were women) and their families. We met in college.
I'm not talking about *SMUT* I'm talking about art.

@DocNicole
Welcome to the Sensational Hedonistic Pleasure Seekers Passion Club.
w00t! I'm not at all surprised by your score.
Sheesh you lurkers ... there's nothing to fear. This is a Friday fun & games thread. Come on, take the test and share.
BTW where's ekim? -

okay, I scored 94, I think that means that I am touchy feely...hmmmmmm, I never thought of myself like that. I am a push-over tho, ask any of my grandkids!

79% - which doesn't surprise me because I know I have an overblown sense of smell. I pick up on odors, both good and bad - and smell and taste are both big parts of my sex-drive.
I think I've mentioned this before, but I seem to be unable to resist pheromones during certain....well, I'm sure you get the picture. My wife swore by that for years and I thought it was nonsense, but then I read an article in Time while travelling a few months ago that suggests that certain men are more in tune with pheromones and that they drive them crazy. Most people that I've been that close with use the word "animal" to describe my lustful/sensual traits.
On a non-sexual note - I can smell when it's going to snow or rain and am surprised that some folks say they can't. A lot of my memories of youth are associated with smell, such as:
-the smell of gum on a fresh pack of Topps baseball cards - I used to smell the cards any chance I got.
- the smell of a freshly printed book. Some textbooks in school had smells that I was fascinated with
- the smell of a baseball glove
- the smell of gasoline
- hell, I don't even really mind being around the smell of manuer.
But the strongest of all is the "scent", if you will, of a female. I don't mean a perfumed scent - I mean that whiff of chemicals if you get in close around the neck or other areas that we won't go into. That sort of thing.-
I am so with you on that one! My experience with my wife is about the same as yours. At first she would find it kind of creepy when I would smell the back of her neck, but now she quite likes it. After 20+ years of marriage, I can tell how she's feeling from her smell. I have been able to tell that she was getting sick before she felt any symptoms from the change in her smell. Heh, these last two still kind of creep her out a bit, but she appreciates it nonetheless :-)

@crkian
Thanks for being a good sport.
@sayzlim
It's okay not to take the test. No obligations - no regret. It was just a Friday night fun and games post so not to worry. -
@crkian
Well, er ... I suppose that sometimes our partners have headaches ...
On such nights one could choose to have erotic dreams rather than nightmares, you know.-
@crkian
Yes one can invoke themes in dreams. However, understand that the details may not exactly take the "shape" or "direction" that one had hoped for while they were conscious. Those who have the most success trying to evoke them are those who already see colours in their dreams, who hear sounds in them too and, who remember smelling scents as well.
"Is it like operating a dvd as I will be lost then."
I don't own a DVD player so I would probably be lost operating one too but, I suppose one could always RTFM.

I scored 84... I had thought it would be closer to 90, but that's ok, I'll just take a nice, hot, hedonistic soak in the tub and it'll all be good :-)

I received a 76.
There are certain sounds and smells that I just love only for the memories and feelings they evoke (like the sound of locusts and the smell of hot asphalt)-- otherwise they wouldn't be very pleasurable, I'm sure. -
@Tthebloggerexposed
Thanks for joining the throng. Although the smell of hot asphalt is at all appealing to me, the smell after the rain falls on a dusty road is evocative.-
Yes, I admit it's a little strange. Maybe a lot strange. But it's for the simple fact that to this day every time I get the beautiful sting of hot asphalt fumes in my nostrils it takes me back to the summer days my best friend and I spent at the amusement park.
Ahhhh...freshly laid parking lot on a scorching afternoon. Gotta love it.

@timethief
I've been to the mountains and prairies...the mountains are visually stunning, I lived in Vancouver for 2 years many many years ago...and I enjoyed living there then...now I don't know..
If I could move to the Caribbean on my own I would be gone tomorrow but unfortunately that isn't going to happen!!! -
79 for me~

I have certain body lotions that remind me of certain places. Like country apple went with my on my honeymoon, so it always reminds me of Cancun.
That example happened serendipitously, so then I began doing it intentionally. I took something else to Paris several years ago, and so on. It is amazing to get such an evocative experience by putting on some moisturizer!-
@thebloggerexposed
I make my own soaps, facials, moisturizers, bubble bath mixes and massage oils. I'm into aromatherapy and massage. IMO essential oils are very evocative and some blends I make are definitely erotic. If there is enough interest, maybe I'll post some of the recipes for the members of the Sensational Hedonistic Pleasure Seekers Passion Club to try out. -
I enjoy trying out new perfumes on D. To note, I'm talking about real perfumes here, not the inexpensive varieties, most of which use alcohol to accelerate the release of the smell. Real perfumes mix with your body chemistry, making each one unique to the woman wearing it, enhancing her presence, rather than covering it. Now that's sensual!
-
Timethief,
good idea! And nice club title!
ekim,
You act as if by my using the term, "places" it merely reminds me of a speck on a map. Oh contraire. It includes a myriad of associated senses and experiences. Another person does not have to be the sole object of a fond memory. For example, Timethief didn't mention anyone else in her fondness for the smell of fresh rain on a dusty road. -
