    I'm really not big on the campfire smell permeating my every fiber either but it sure beats the after dinner smells from the 4 guys I camped with.

    I don't know if this will work for everyone but I like lemon candy/drops etc.. They seem to kill the stench of campfires, burnt food and air biscuits. I tried mint but it just makes bad tastes/smells worse.

    Smelling like camp fire smoke? Uh, no. I don't like rolling around in dust either. Don't wallow in mud. Don't roll in leaves. Have been known to swim in water on occasion. Like, Dan, I'm still married.

    I'm with Owl Girl too, the smell is great.
    There is no greater solitude than that of the Tracker in the forest, unless perhaps it's that of the wolf in the wilderness.

    I avoid it. Makes my lungs hurt and I cough even if I inhale the slightest bit of it. But I used to use it to cover my scent before hunting or covering the scent on my traps.

    There should be a new cologne: WOODSMOKE

    The right women, for us, would find this sexy

    "Ode woodsmoke de Toilette", a new fragrance that honors the joys of being in love with the outdoors.

    Ok, I've been reading this thread for a while now....what smell?
    some fella confronted me the other day and asked "What's your problem?" So I told him, "I don't have a problem I am a problem"
