198: Perfumes that attract humans vs. perfumes that attract bugs

The Venn diagram of perfumes "for sex" (which let's be real, is all of them) and perfumes that attract bugs might be a near-circle. However, there are certain fragrances and fragranced products that could be handy on your next camping trip if you want to avoid attracting either.

Also in this ep:
  • A listener question about the smell of summer
  • Sable is looking for a (non-Internet) creator or fabricator
  • Tynan is looking for... a reason
  • Phlur's M&A is making a great case for divorce
  • Why the hell are Victoria's Secret Dream Angels perfumes so expensive on eBay? (Seriously, I'm asking, though.)

[What we smell like today: Guerlain Vetiver Fauve, Henry Rose Dave]
