Tourism Agency Creates England-Scented Perfume, Smells Like High Tide And Exhaust Fumes

08.21.2009 - Tourism quango spends £8,500 on perfume

By George! is a new perfume created by the tourism agency, VisitEngland, that is said to smell like the essence of England. They claim that the perfume is "a symphony of the nation's most evocative smells." Along with the scent of carrot and mint, you'll also notice the presence of sea water and lawnmower exhaust fume. You've got to hand it to VisitEngland for including such olfactory-offensive odors, but if you really wanted to capture the smell of England, you'd most definitely have to include vomit, ashtray, and fried fish.
