I’ve been watching a lot of it recently. It bugs me when someone gets the spirit of the answer right, but they don’t get the point. For example, there was a question asking what scents might remind someone of their partner. The contestant answered “wood”. Now anyone who knows scents and fragrance knows that sandalwood is a very popular scent. That’s obviously what he meant by that, but he doesn’t get the point. Later, someone does get the answer of cologne/body spray.
(It would be cool if anyone could help with my actual question, which is the title of the post. Lol)
I don’t buy into “wood” obviously meaning “sandalwood.” If you have lived with carpenters, they smell like fresh timber and sweat. So if that wasn’t an option, I don’t think the contestant was specific enough.
Walking into a workshop after cutting a bunch of stuff. I may actually wear cologne if that was on offer.
Hmm, maybe
softwoods (i.e. conifers) often smell VERY nice, take christmas trees for example where you can literally pay extra these days for a species that has the expected scent.
