If a person who gets their hands dirty, and is attractive in a rugged sort of way is your thing then you're doing a disservice by not owning this. The smell is clean and foresty (my word, but you can use it.) I spray my linen and towels with it, my car, and from time to time my sweatshirts and jackets. I receive more compliments on this scent than any high-dollar cologne I've ever owned. I also recommend you go ahead and get the laundry detergent and dryer sheets, because there's no sense in half-assing anything that brings all the ladies to the yard. You'll think it evaporates quickly, but it lingers. Remember subtlety is key. You want to smell good, but you don't want you or your stuff to smell like the bottle. You want to incorporate this into your natural scents. Remember this isn't lysol, but it is essential oils so it won't permeate quite like aerosolized chemicals from a can.
