Would you wear Play-Doh perfume?
Filed under: Toys
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?

Kira said...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.
