Scientists have discovered orgasmic mushroom that gives women an 'earth-shattering' experience

Now, this is what you call a fungi.

This truly magical Dictyophora mushroom has been shown to provide ladies with the sort of experience which many men can only dream of giving them.

Its orgasmic powers were first mentioned in The International Journal of Medicinal Mushrooms in 2001, but rumours of its erotic potential have now resurfaced due to a piece on IFL Science.

"There are significant sexual arousal characteristics present in the foetid odour of this unique mushroom," academics wrote.

Research in the mushroom journal indicated that up to half of the women who sniffed the 'shroom experienced an orgasm.

The pleasure-giving mushroom is understood to grow on dried lava flows in Hawaii.

Wikipedia states that the fungi comes from the species Phallus indusiatus, which is more commonly known as stinkhorn and looks very rude indeed.
