I like the Deer Sense sticks that smoke. The smoke is oil based and sticks to everything it touches. And the scent really travels. Other hunters have smelled them as far away as half a mile. No liquid scent can do that. The smoke also covers human scent and will burn up to two hours. It's a hard to beat product as far as I'm concerned. But just like any other product, deer have to be in the area. Good luck and safe hunting.
