A Very Deer Scent To Us

Looking for a little bit of useless grooming trivia?  Well, here it comes anyway.

Grooming Lounge recently starting carrying a terrific brand, Malin+Goetz.  From that brand, the Grooming Guys, traditionally not big wearers of colognes or EDT's, took an immediate liking to the Malin+Goetz Synthesized Musk.  It's a very subtle, warm scent that lasts forever and smells great.  Anyway, when one of us was spraying a bit into the air in our office to cover up a particularly noxious scent left behind from an not-to-be-named co-worker's lunch (Sophia Lan), another co-worker posed the query...

Co-Worker: "Where does Musk come from?"

Grooming Guys: "Well Francis, Musk is a sexual secretion obtained from a certain sack on a male musk deer."

Co-Worker:  "I think I'm gonna' hurl.  So, I've been spraying Mr. Bambi on myself for the last three weeks?"

Grooming Guys: "Don't get ahead of yourself Francis... this is Synthesized Musk. Pretty much nobody obtains musk that old-fashioned way anymore, as it was particularly cruel to the deer. The whole scent is made in a lab and no actual deers were groped in the making of said scent."

This knowledge regarding the origins of the original musk scent should wow friends, family and co-workers alike. No need to say thanks.  It's our pleasure.
