Default Lure For Black Bears

What bear lure do you guys suggest for this fall?? Baiting is not legal here. I contacted the DNR about doing a "honey burn" they told me I could do it if I only used a few drops of honey and absolutely not a single DROP of honey or burnt honey hit the ground or I would be breaking the law!! He also said that if they wanted to they could argue that the smell was coming from food, and the food being in the woods could be baiting. He kinda had an attitude, so I'm almost afraid to try it. That said all I can do is put a stand in a tree and try to find some kind of scent to attract them. I found a synthetic scent spray on ebay that smells like bacon but its kinda expensive, I also had thought about trying those scent sticks that smoke. What would you do??
