I'm curious. All the people that said save your money, they dont work. Have you even tried them, or are you restating what you have heard from other hunters?
In my case it's personal experience . I've gone out covered from head to toe with carbon and not got busted the first time a deer crossed the wind near me . The second time , despite meticulous washing and protection from contamination , I got busted . Carbon isn't forever , it clogs pretty quickly regardless of what the manufacturer says or how well you treat the garments .

I for one am a big fan of scent loc/block clothing. It has saved me on more than one occasion from swirling winds and deer who decided to come down wind of my set up. The number one reason the suit fails is because people fail to use it properly. One you must use the complete system, head net, top, bottom, gloves and rubber boots.
Hook , line , and sinker ... I honestly hope that you got all that gear for free , because it will fail eventualy , and much sooner than you think .

The botton line, nothing is 100% but if you can fool that mature buck even once then it is all worth it. Really it's a matter of opinion, but mine is if you want that extra edge than it's worth it. just my 2 cents
Sound advice , but I'll never spend what you did for all that fancy crap just to find out as long as Uncle Sam keeps making $15 MOPP suits , no deer is worth that to me .
