== [[Anime]] and [[Manga]] ==
* SPH or Space Pheromones, from ''[[ēlDLIVE]]'', are select chemicals released by aliens. These pheromones are unique to each species, thus giving different abilities to different organisms.
* Love, the warden of Honey Prison from ''[[Toriko]]'', uses her pheromones to keep her prisoners and animals in check. Along with a tranquilizing effect, Love can also use them to mess with her victim's senses and make them feel a powerful sexual attraction towards her. They even mess with people's perception of her and cause them to see her as a tall, busty bombshell as opposed to the tubby little midget she actually is.
* Rikujou Kaori, from ''[[Killing Bites]]'', aka the Brute Civet, can unleash pheromones with her musk to act as an aphrodisiac for other Brutes, leaving them in a state of uncontrollable lust.
 
== [[Comic Books]] ==
* ''[[Marvel Comics]]'':
** Zebediah Killgrave, a.k.a the Purple Man from ''[[Marvel Comics]]'', is a supervillain with the power of releasing pheromones that sap people of their free will. And being the sadistic psychopath that he is, he often takes this power to horrific extremes and will force innocent people to kill, mutilate, or torture each other, as well as force unwilling women to have sex with him.
** Beast of the ''[[X-Men]]'' is capable of secreting pheromones that can cause women to be infatuated with him, but he doesn't use them and the only indication that he has any is [[All There in the Manual]].
** Minor Marvel villain Mandrill can exude pheromones that attract and enslave women, though particularly strong-willed women can resist them such as Black Widow and Shanna the She Devil.
** X-Men/New Warriors member Stacy X once had the power to emit pheromones that could affect bodily functions when she touched people, such as orgasms, vomiting, and rectal issues among others. She was among the many mutants depowered by M-Day, but is sometimes shown to have them back [[Depending on the Writer|for no real reason]].

* Pheromone Generators from ''[[Alphas]]'' can make pheromones that affect people within close proximity.
* Zigevolks, from ''[[Grimm (TV)|Grimm]]'', are goat-like Wesen who have a gland that releases pheromones from their sweat. By eating live amphibians, they can stimulate more pheromones and make them airborne to enthrall people.

== [[Video Games]] ==
* Garalon from ''[[World of Warcraft]]: Mists of Pandaria'' uses magic pheromones to mark a target and damage them. There is also another affliction on a person who can leave a trail of pheromones that can harm others.
* ''[[Monster Hunter]]'':
** The Seltas Queen from ''[[Monster Hunter]] 4'' onwards can cast pheromones that attract a male Seltas to assist her in battle. These pheromones can also give a Hunter the Soiled ailment, which prevents them from eating food or healing items out of disgust.
** The Insect Glaive weapon also introduced in ''4'' is essentially a spear that allows its wielder to control a special bug called a [[Mon|Kinsect]]. The Hunter can shoot out a pheromone bullet as a "lock-on" for it to attack a monster, and aiming it at specific monster body parts will enable the Kinsect to collect special essences that can boost Hunter's stats.
** Xeno'jiiva from ''[[Monster Hunter World]]'', is {{spoiler|an alien Elder Dragon that is responsible for the Elder Crossing, and lures dying Elder Dragons towards the New World with special pheromones so it can absorb their life essence once they pass.}}
