World Of LoveCraft?
No, not H.P. Lovecraft. Azeroth blooms with the fetid miasma of love, and players across World of Warcraft are experiencing sudden dizzy spells, instant-cast trouser snake enlargement, and a wicked debuff of the heart (not to be confused with "Total Eclipse of the Heart").
This year's Valentine's Day spillover, "Love is in the Air," brings back the gift exchange series of quests, with Perfume, Cologne and Love Tokens available from your friendly neighborhood innkeeper. Just wear the appropriate scent (I have a feeling Blizzard doesn't consider same-sex scentage "appropriate," but I haven't tried it out myself...anyone?) and offer the NPC of your choice a Love Token to receive either a Gift of Friendship or a Pledge of Friendship. Within, you'll find an assortment of quest items and a "cool toy."
Love is not without risk, however, and there's always a chance your chosen NPC won't cotton to your style, in which case you'll be "Heartbroken" and unable to make a match with a new, better, less bitchy NPC. But players can always cure each other of the lovesick blues with the offer of a Friendship Bracelet.
If only real life were that simple.
There's a popularity contest as well, but I'll let you enterprising young Gnomes and Blood Elves figure that one out on your own...

Ah, you can just use perfume or cologne -- whichever sex you prefer. They both apply the buff for the correct sex... Perfume attract males while cologne attract females. I've already tried perfume on my male Blood Elf and chatted up quite a few Orcs in Orgrimmar... and recieved quite a many gifts in return. ;)
H.P. Lovecraft is better.
Definitely seems to work for any gender combination. For the Alliance, part of the holiday quest is to try it out on a Stormwind guard, and all of those are male, far as I know. :)
Last year I was playing a male character in the Alliance and I assure you that I made out with each and every male Stormwind guards. :)
It works!
