Scent spooky does?
 
The other night, I went out for my evening hunt. My stand is right near both my bait station and a couple mock scrapes. I have Active Scrape in my dripper, and Trail' s End #307 on scent wicks. After a while, a doe and a couple fawns came in to the bait station. The fawns got right down to eating, but the doe was really suspicious. All of a sudden, her ears went up. She took a couple steps towards the dripper, sniffed the air, and split in the other direction. I was soaked in scent killer, and she was cross wind of me. Did the scent spook her? Thanks!

Yes, I believe that does do not like attracting scents if the rut is not ongoing. I had a similar experience this year.
