Butt Perfume

Humans are easily the most olfactorily perverted animal species on the planet - jealousy, one would imagine, stemming from having inferior scent-marking abilities compared to other species.

There's scented hair-products, body wash, deodorant/anti-perspirants, perfumes, colognes, toilet waters, breath mints and rinses, etc., all formulated and applied to mask an existing scent or create a new one... and mostly all used in conjunction with each other haphazardly.

So there's room for one more.

Propogation of a chemical in air, while almost uniform in an elevator, still has a directional component, better realized in a more open area.

Butt perfume is what it says it is: it's meant to be applied to the back side, so when you talk to people, or even just pass by, they get a different olfactory picture depending on whether you're coming or going.

       What about dervishes?

       Nobody's going to want to apply a dervish to their arse - that was just silly.

       _was_ silly, [MB]? Personal experience or merely anecdote?

       So it smells like butt? No thank you, FlyingToaster, you kidder, you.

       <arrgh>   

       perfume _for_ the butt, not _of_ the butt.   

       No attempt is made, at least not in the post, to cover up any butt-based odours: the purpose is to give the wearer a multi-faceted scent-personality.   

       As you stand there in the club, talking with a bunch of people, they all smell lavender; when you turn to go, they smell summer oranges, or something like that.

       Smells fishy to me. Butt I could be wrong.
blissmiss, May 03 2014
  

       Perhaps you should give it a crack though?
pocmloc, May 04 2014
  

       ...only if it's fart-activated.

       A Whirling Dervish is an ideal lavatory paper replacement actually, in the same way that a power tool is often an improvement on the original.

       The idea is fundamentally flawed.
normzone, May 05 2014
  

       Is that better or worse than being superficially flawed?
MaxwellBuchanan, May 05 2014
  

       I think this should be, ...but perfume!
JesusHChrist, May 05 2014
  

       Isn't perfume always intended to cloak other smells?
pocmloc, May 06 2014
  

       That's the booty of the idea - now I'll bun this one.
normzone, May 06 2014
  

       Why would anybody want to smell like a butt?
doctorremulac3, May 06 2014
  

       Perhaps they want to attract dogs?
