I just heard about this on a archery forum. What are your thoughts and experiences?

Probably work for all three, only legal for two.

You should have listed it as (deer/elk/bear/people).  I know after about an hour in a tree-stand I'd be down there eating it.  Sounds delicious!

I've used vanilla extract as a cover scent before for whitetails.  I stood in some bushes that were right on the trail and had deer walk right past me.  Eventually a buck came by and stood about 2 feet away....I couldn't take it any longer and touched him with the barrel and then he flipped out and ran off.  I only used it for the real close hunting when I crawl under logs and trees above trails.  I would get the big bottles of vanilla and put in a spray bottle.  Then saturate my clothes and let them dry.  The morning I would go out, I'd spray them again.

I tried peanut butter for deer once..I wanted to see if they would eat it..never touched it..a raccoon ended up eating it

I've tried peanut butter I have ton of blacktail coming through an area and having a tough time getting them to hold up. They never touched it, only helped bring in the yotes'  so I pulled it.  Try it see if it works it's not going to cost you anything.

   After hiking in I think I would've just made a sandwich and hoped for the best!
