The best method is to take the money and put it right back in your pocket.

Just put more layers on.  Hike to your spot in thin clothes to sweat less, then put on whatever you were supposed to wear.
Your breath is what mostly they smell, so just eat an apple, good old method to eliminate the scent ;). No need to waste money on those "scent killers".
Keep it simple and use the wind !

Don't shower for 3 months before opening day and they will not know what you actually smell like-- and on the way to the woods go roll on pig poop and you will smell just like an innocent animal and the deer will like it...https://hunting-washington.com/smf/Smileys/default/badidea.gif

Ive toyed with the idea of putting my hunting costume in a garbage bag with some sagebrush, shaking the bag vigorously every time I walk by it for a week. Sort of like marinating clothes.

Probably get a rash or something.

I sweat too much, can't believe any "scent killing" product would work for me :twocents:
Sweat?   Hell, you were always freezing if the temps were under 70 degrees!  :chuckle:

I know that scent eliminating products won't kill all of your scent but from many years of using them they can buy you time or get you a tiny bit closer.  I look at it this way.  Who is a deer going to smell first of be alarmed more by, a guy with a little smell or the one who smells like a garbage truck?  My cousins all believed in not showering the whole 2 weeks of camp and never thought that all of their deer were shot either on the run or at long distance and those of us who cleaned up and used scent reducing products were killing calmer deer within bow range.

I will say this about scents.  The buck the I killed yesterday was more interested in the doe pee that I had on my boots 3 hours before when I walked through were I killed him than the smell of me with the wind to my back and directly at him.  I made a 300 acre circle through thick brush, scotch broom and timber with doe pee on my boots and pants.  On my way back to point A I jumped 2 other bucks in the thick brush that were headed to investigate the smell.  Headed out now to try to get my daughter and her bestie those other bucks.
