Bilim dünyasında, aromaterapi ile cinsellik arasında bir bağlantı olduğu konusunda genel bir fikir birliği olsa da bu konuda yeterli çalışma yapılmamış ve odak noktası genellikle postmenopozal dönemdeki kadınlarda cinsel sorunlar ve cinsel isteksizlik gibi konuların aromaterapinin etkileri üzerinde yoğunlaşmıştır. Bu nedenle, cinsel işlev bozuklukları aromaterapi ile ilişkisi geri planda kalmıştır. Çalışmalarda genellikle gül yağı ve lavanta yağı gibi yağlar aromaterapi olarak kullanılmıştır. Ayrıca bu derlemede günümüzde yaygın olarak karşılaşılan cinsel işlev bozuklukları ele alınmış ve özellikle erkekler de erektil disfonksiyon ve kadınlarda cinsel isteksizlik gibi birçok cinsel işlev bozukluğu iyileştirme potansiyeli farklı kaynaklar ışığında ele alınmıştır. Geçmişten bu yana hasta bakımında aromaterapi uygulamalarını kullanıldığı hemşirelik mesleğinde aromaterapi uygulamalarına yer vermek önemlidir çünkü holistik bakım ve mesleki etik değerleriyle uyumludur. Bu derlemede aromaterapinin cinsel işlev üzerindeki etkisinin değerlendirilmesi amaçlanmıştır.
