It my be too much of a good thing.

I put out some doe-in-estrus and some regular doe pee on my way to the stand. I was going to be with the wind at my back so I used a lot, on the way to and around the stand. Hoping it would distract from my own scent while in the stand.

In comes a seven pointer from the north up the hill, crossing into the wind pattern which was blowing from the east and soon to be right at him. Sure enough he gets a whif of me or the pee, neither of which he likes. At 120 yards I couldn' t get a good shot at him when he stopped and looked straight at me. In my line of sight was a tree branch and all I could see was two ears and legs. A few seconds later, back down he goes snorting all the way.

Was it just my stench or the heavy combination of doe pee that blew it for me?
