I am not really sure about what I'm going to say, but the fact they can sense what man can like is not that much stated in the books, it's not that much canon, it has been stated by KC later to reassure the fan. (again, not 100% sure about that)

How did they sense that? I would say probably with the smell of their Spirit Energy.

Personnaly I have another explanation, but it's kind of completly fan-made, let me copy/paste my comment from the Dragon's page profile :

The pheromone are issued by all animals, they have an important role in the sexual behavior of animals while it tend to be minimal for the human, but they still have an effect.

Among humans, we can smell pheromone of other wich is propagated most commonly throught sweat, it actually help us to have an unconscious first opinion of other persons, and it unconsciously influence our partner choice, certain people will be attracted by certain people via pheromone.

Of course this attraction didn't depend of the personnality of the person, so it didn't attract you to your soulmate.

But now what's about monster?

Monster can feel these pheromone even if there not the same species, they are potential partner, and by adding some magic in the process of evolution, it's safe to assume monster have an improved "pheromone detector" who allow them to analyse a man pheromone precisely, to the point they can know if a man is "compatible" with them.

Of course, scientifically talking, this last part doesn't make sense, but like I said, add a bit of magic is not too much since it's a fantasy setting.

Also this is totally the kind of change who would be develop by mamono since they need to find a reliable husband for survive/ensure there sustainability. If the man they find keep runing away from them, they couldn't make offspring, so natural selection would favorise the monster who can sense a man who will stay with them.

End of the copy paste, as I said it's completly fan made by me, but I like to make some sense out of it, it seem almost logical this way.

But of course, it's just here so there wouldn't be a bad end for a man, after all, MGE is a light hearthed setting where everything is done to avoid bad end, so a "shut up it's magic" could be enought. But I like to find an explanation which make some sense (to me at least)
