\"Dom<\/a>

Dom Perignon White Gold<\/p><\/div>On a recent wilderness photography hike I kept getting wafts of an odd scent. Was the mysterious odor in my clothes, or hat? After a few hours a light went on as I recognized the smell as beer. That was odd, because I don\u2019t drink beer.<\/p>\n

Taking a shower afterwards and still smelling the beer I realized the scent wasn\u2019t from my clothes \u2013 it was coming from my hair. More precisely from a new hair conditioner recommended by a girl friend; a woman\u2019s hair conditioner. (Hey why not? I\u2019ve spent years trying to find a good conditioner.)<\/p>\n

It rapidly dawned on me – that is a darn clever sales tactic: A woman\u2019s hair smells like beer \u2013 and men in bars flock to her ! Apparently women have used actual beer in their hair for years intentionally, though I’ve never heard anyone admit to this particular line of reasoning.<\/p>\n

Of course the more discerning woman’s hair should have a fragrance of a fine Chablis, or better yet Dom Perignon White Gold. <\/p>\n

None of those would work on me though, since I don’t imbibe. (There’s a reason they call it “intoxic<\/i><\/u>ating.”)<\/p>\n

Me? I probably couldn’t walk past a woman wearing the scent of chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
