Looking For A New Perfume?

Urine luck! An artist named Cherry Tree makes perfume from her own urine. Its for her own use now, but she hopes to eventually market it, but I'm thinking it will be a rather small market.

After 14 years as a nurse aide, believe me when I say the thought of using urine to make perfume has never crossed my mind!

Musk is deer pee and ambergris is sperm whale puke. However, wearing one own pee (let alone someone else's) is totally out of the question.

And just for the record; I don't like musk either!

Now, if she made it out of little boys' urine, that'd sell.

@jswolf19

The problem is who would it sell to? I don't think I would want anyone who would buy that anywhere near kids.

Yogi, well, there's the guy in Florida, I think, and maybe the Chinese who eat those eggs'd like it...
