Yes but not because of pheromones, humans can't do that it's incel pseudoscience. It's because when you spend a lot of time with someone your biospheres intermingle which causes you both to release similar smells as the same bacteria colonies eat and shit all over your bodies.

" I adore the way your bacterial colonies' shit smells on you, darling"

I kid you not I noticed when I had been with my partner for some time my skin started smelling like hers

Wikipedia says the scientific consensus is still very much up in the air as to the existence of pheromones
