Hi Camelia
I am not sure what you have done to your cat, I think you are saying that you showered your cat and changed it#s body smell. If that is what you ae saying then you will be ok in a few days. Many people wash their cats before taking them to cat shows so this is NOT an unusual event. The fact your female is seeming to attack him is not normal. The male's aroma normally returns after about three days so he should smell exactly the same right now.
Somthing else has happened that has caused your female to attack the male and it has nothing to do with the shower.
I would suggest that you think about showering the female cat as well and see what happens after that
