Default Use BC Sheath as deodorant?

A lighter topic here.
I bought a can of Birchwood Casey Sheath to use on and in my ML. Last night I sprayed a little in my hand to see how it compared to the smell of WD-40, which my wife hates the smell of. Anyway, I love the smell of Sheath and I think I may use it as deodorant from now on. Then, all day long I will be reminded of shooting my ML and hunting and such, even though I have no problem remembering that stuff to begin with.
Do I need counseling?

Nevr used it, only used what comes with my gun kits and WD-40. My wife hates it when I clean the guns in the winter times since we have propane heaters and when the gas mixed with the solvents, the smell is pretty bad, but I love it. Where did you get the Birchwood Casey Sheath?

I was hopping that someone would come out with an oil that smells like apples, or even pine scented oil.

Thanks Greg, I have a Dicks and a Gander Mountain within a few minutes of each other in Scranton. I tend to visit Gander Mountian more than Dicks, why, not sure but I like the mounts on display at Gander better and I like the setup.

Maybe I will get a chance to go there this weekend, in the rain. We are supposed to get hit with Bonnie on Friday and Charley on Saturday.

Yes livbucks it sure does smell better then WD-40. I use Birchwood Casey Sheath all the time. My gun room is also part of the office/computer room so I can sit in here and work and look at all the pretty guns that smell so good.

The spray aerosol can of it (Profesional Size) seems to last a long time. The stuff really works. Triple Se7en turned me on to this line of products and it was again, another excellent recommendation on his part. Also Sheath comes in a non-aerosol smaller can which make a great over the road travel packer.... For trips to the range I mean. Yes, you might have a problem... but a good one. By the way I buy mine at Wal Mart. I talked to the head of the sporting goods there about the stuff one afternoon and they actually started stocking the Sheath and Bore Scrubber after that....

I love the smell of the stuff- even better than the smell of Hoppes #9.
I'd rather use it than Bore Butter for protecting the bore during storage- Bore Butter is another powerful smell that reminds me of he smell of wintergreen snuff that I had a difficult time quitting from a few years ago.
