With contemplation, Combs also dispels the myths & provides the latest information on all aspects of using scents including sexual, curiosity, food, cover, & attracting scents. Combs asks, "Can a deer that can detect onion at a concentration of one onion molecule per billion other molecules fail to detect human odor because it's mixed with a few drops of doe urine?"
