Question of the Day

Is there a food scent that you'd want to wear as a perfume?

Why cant you just find a good woman who smells like a Reuben?

The woman who smells like roast beef might just be the most desired lady in a nation of eaters. Or not. NPR has the story of Brooklyn-based I Hate Perfume, a micro-olfactory laboratory that is producing scents from roast beef to old musty books (named In the Library). The former has apparently racked up three sales, while the latter is the most popular scent in the shop.

Roast beef may not be popular, but that hasn't stopped meat-based scents from coming to the market. Fat City wrote about Que, an "Eau de Barbecue" that was released this summer by Pork Barrel Barbecue. Outside of citrus, is there a food scent that you'd willingly wear?

I love the smell of tires. Go ahead and judge me.

Actually I have some gingerbread body wash that came from World Market and I love the scent of it. Wish they made it in cologne! I also used to wear a lemon cologne that smelled like lemon meringue pie, but they don't make it any more.

Ladies during the depression used Vanilla as a perfume. I wouldn't mind them walking around smelling like baked goods all the time. Bring back Vanilla as a perfume!

I'm tossed between the smell of bacon frying, or cinnamon rolls baking.
