Are you trying to tell me a deer has never snort/wheezed at you?
Never while hunting, I have had does do it in the off season while I was walking in a field or the woods, but only after they stare you down for a few minutes first. I have had a few bust me while moving, or if I bump something, but they don't snort or wheeze, they just take off.
I shot my first deer with a bow wearing a camo T-shirt, black jeans and my work boots. And I went hunting right after working 10 hours in a hot factory. And it was 70 degrees out in the afternoon. I shot the deer at 18 yards away from 13 feet up. There were actually two deer under me, and I watched them graze around for a while before I shot one of them. They didn't have clue I was there until it was too late.
I some how manage to kill a deer every year without all the scent free products. The way some make it sound I should never see deer, let alone get a shot off at one, with a bow no less.
I bet if you went out and hung a pair of stinky underwear from a game camera you would still see deer on it. As a matter of fact you may see one right at the camera sniffing them.
My opinion anyway. If you want to buy the scent free stuff go ahead, it certainly can't hurt anything. Unless it actually gives off some chemical odor we can't smell, but deer can and that freaks them out more than BO will.
