Default RE: Scent Question

The concern here is if the deer treats a certain smell as a threat We all know human odor always sends the deer high tailing away from the source.
But how about other scents? I would think cedar would be an accepted smell by most deer, a smell they would either accept or possibly further investigate out of curosity,
even if it is a scent not found in the area. I know hunters who use attractants like vanilla, peanutbutter, molasses, etc, all with a unique smell that is not unique in the woods and a smell unfamiliar to the deer.

My thoughts; I would definitely use a cedar closet, then I would air out all my hunting clothes as i do every year.
