Default stupid question but had to ask

I read threads with individuals concerned about a backup weapon at close quarters for hogs. There are other articles that have even written concerning hikers protecting themselves from grizzlies with a mace type repellant. How would this work on hogs? I would think they have a keen sense of smell to locate all the grubs and stuff they forage for, so a wiff of some of spray should send them running. I know it would be better to drop them for the harvest, but for those that are unable to afford a back-up it seems spray might do something. Your thoughts?
