One man's heaven scent is
another's kitty wee, so you gotta go by the law of averages. If you don't mind smelling like an "earth daddy,"
patchouli will cover almost anything and lasts a long time. Clary sage has similar properties but really needs to be
mixed with a sweet EO so you don't smell like a Chinese herb store. Wood EOs like cedar and fir needle are manly
and cover well. Clove and cinamon are nice, espeically mixed with wood EOs.
The problem with pure EOs is they
irritate many folk's skin, so test it on a small patch of skin first. It's usually best to dilute EOs in a carrier
oil. All of the above, except patchouli, give me a terrible rash.
