“Praise be given to God, who has placed man's greatest pleasure in the natural parts of woman, and has destined the natural parts of man to afford the greatest enjoyment to woman”.

So begins the famous treatise, The Perfumed Garden, written by a Sheik from Nefzaoua, a town  in sixteenth century Tunis. This text talks about the sexual act, of its importance in human lives and discusses ways to derive maximum pleasure from it.

 Here are some of the time-tested coital techniques described by the Sheik for you to explore and  discover a better sexual experience.

 
First Position of the Perfumed Garden 

This is a position with the man on top, especially good for well-endowed men.  Both partners should focus on the touches of the pelvic area alone. The man braces himself on his hands and grips the bed with his toes, without the knees touching the bed. The woman rises up to meet the thrusts; this position works best if the woman's hips are raised before the man makes an entry.

Second Position of the Perfumed Garden 

This also is a position with the man on top, especially suited for men with shorter members. The man is poised on his hands and knees, and the woman needs to lock herself by crossing her ankles over the man's waist, or across his hips. This position gives maximum pleasure to the man, but is slightly discomfiting for the woman. The couple could try raising the woman by placing a few pillows beneath her pelvic region.

Third Position of the Perfumed Garden

 A man on top position that should be attempted after prolonged foreplay and stimulation to ensure the woman's arousal as this position requires that the woman be ready to be very deeply entered. The man begins the actual sexual act by kneeling between his partner's legs, and spreading them widely apart by placing one over one of his shoulders and the other over his other arm. This position ensures the best of penetrations.

Fourth Position of the Perfumed Garden

 In this position, the woman stretches both her legs vertically against the man's body as he kneels to join her. The man needs to support the woman up so as to gain the best angle of entry. The woman has to lay her calf muscles against her partner's shoulders. This is a slightly strenuous position for the woman, though it enhances her pleasure. A prolonged foreplay for the woman to get the leg and waist in gear by intimately stretching against each other is recommended.

Fifth Position of the Perfumed Garden

 In this position, the man and woman lie side by side facing each other in embrace. This is an intimate position which allows lots of kissing and touching during the sexual act. The woman raises her leg to accommodate the man. This is a good position for those keen on simple pleasure devoid of strenuous activity.

Sixth position of the of the Perfumed Garden

In this position, the woman kneels, and the man enters while kneeling behind her. This leaves his hands free to roam over her body. This position is commonly called the dog-style, and is very pleasurable to the woman, as it gives her a feeling of being possessed. The man may lightly slap his partner's bottom and bite her neck in order to heighten arousal, though this is not part of the original manual. Ensure you have a firm bed before attempting this one, or you may have interruptions..

Seventh Position of the Perfumed Garden

 This is a variation of the fourth position. In this one the woman lies on her side, and raises one leg against the man's shoulder to facilitate penetration. This is less strenuous for the woman than the fourth position. This also allows her more access to his body than the fourth position, so she can touch her partner during the act.
