My job is as a "descriptive analyst" aka, a taste tester. Most tastes are actually smells and there are definite aromas I associate with our team and the competitions.

This has some real potential to be fun. Just please make sure they make these so the smells stay mostly in the vials. How about one to go with your posh cart? The smell of heavy metal...
What's up with the green grass choice? One of your mentors is from where I live, where the smell is green grass AND cows. :)

I'd second that.... it would be wonderful to spray my apartment when I get lonely far away at school, and miss those late nights in the wood shop building 'bots. :D

du is a contraction of "de le", so using it assumes MORT is male :)

Haha, yes. That's my contribution to Chief Delphi for the day.

(Lest anyone think that Jessica was correcting me, I want to let everyone know that I know that. :) It just wasn't germane to my point. I made the assumption too, that M.O.R.T. is male.)

Hmm...It should definitely relate to first and robotics in someway. How about essence of magic smoke? Of the ones already suggested, I'm all for tap magic (mmm) and dew (double mmm). And of course, let's not exclude freshly cut grass.

Marvel Mystery Oil, or even better: Duct Tape.

how bout gasoline. that is the greatest smell in the world.
And it might also be the worst idea for cologne. come on what girl would say that the gasoline smell of your cologne was good.

I'll have to second that...though I think that this scent would enrage some people when it opens up memories of those lovely fisher price motors.

List of fragrance for my team
 
Let me make a quick list of some of the possiblities:
- WD-40 (very practical)
- Burning Drill Motors (very realistic)
- Hoppes #9 (it should already be a cologne)
- fresh cut lumber (*drool*)
- Tap Magic (also very practical)
- Pizza (could draw unwanted crowds in pits)
- Krispy Kremes (same problem as pizza)
- duct tape (might cause the inspectors to wonder)

I agree there is nothing like the smell of burning drill motors in the heat of battle. LOL
