Would you wear Play-Doh perfume?
Categories: Toys & Games
Terri over at About.com's "Parenting Special Needs" page is asking an interesting question: Would you wear Play-Doh perfume?Yes, you read that right. The fine people at Hasbro are releasing a perfume based on the product in honor of its 50th anniversary.
According to the site, the perfume is aimed at "fun, highly creative people." While I consider myself a creative person, (though I can't exactly vouch for the "fun" part), I wouldn't wear it. Why would I? Do I want every 4-year-old I come across trying to lick me or smoosh me into people's hair?
I think not.
To me, Play-Doh smells like salt and if I wanted to walk around smelling like I took a salt bath, well, I'd take a salt bath.
Would you wear the perfume? If not, what sent from childhood should they make into one?

Um...I think I ALREADY smell like Play-Doh. Oh, wait, that would be the Play-Doh stuck to my shirt.
No, I think I'd prefer something a leeetle more feminine for a night out.

That tacky white paste with the stick on the lid. The one that tasted good.

I loved the scented markers from art class. You know, the ones that colored your nose because you held them too close in order to sniff them? The green marker smelled like grass - that was my favorite one.

I wonder if it smells the way it did when I was a kid. I'm convinced they have changed the formula, because Play-Doh doesn't taste the same as when I was little. Yes, I tasted it. And I remember eating it when I was about 4 or 5, and I liked it. And now it's just disgusting. ;-))

YUCK! Reading this made me remember what play dough smells like. I can smell it even now. Why would anyone want to smell like that??

I actually like the smell of play-dough, but lord knows I wouldn't want to wear it as a perfume. On purpose, that is. :)
