WD-40 Cologne is Out, And it Smells Like Workshop
by The Car Guide
Ever wondered if you could take that delicate workshop smell home and into the night during your lavish soirées ? Say no more. A New York art collective has fulfilled the olfactory dream of gearheads by creating a cologne inspired by the famous WD-40 spray lubricant.
Developed in 1953, the penetrating oil spray has many uses related to cleaning, lubrication and corrosion protection, and has a distinctive and easily identifiable odor. And what about the smell ? Well, it's a question of personal taste. Some people love the scent of popular colognes that are rather harsh for the nose...
The official product name is "Smells Like WD-40", and it the cologne retails for $44 USD per can (a little under $60 cad). It has already attracted a lot of attention, because it is currently out of stock!
In the past, the MSCHF collective has also garnered media attention for inventing a fake restaurant to make political donations using a corporate expense account, developing a cell phone game where you have to keep your finger on the screen for as long as possible, and most importantly, collaborating with Lil Nas X for blood-infused shoes.
