Greetings classical scholars:

Perhaps someone can help me with this. I've written a faux translation of a fictional text, purportedly from the Ancient Greek. What I'm looking for is a Greek word you might translate as "Cialis"-- some kind of aphrodisiac, maybe,or whatever the equivalent of a male-enhancing drug might have been. I want to put the original word in a footnote. Obviously, this is a light piece, so suggestions don't have to be too scholarly!

Marion
