So I stumbled across this Kickstarter that is selling a "scent machine" that you load with smells to enhance your D&D game, like Ogre, Elf, Red Dragon, and so on. Part of me says this is a terrible idea, another part of me wants it. Is this an awful idea or a great one? kck.st/3zv9hKO![](https://i.kickstarter.com/assets/045/579/461/fb69ee9493448590333c64b40860d412_original.png?fit=scale-down&origin=ugc&width=680&sig=LYxVJXYsuVNS4u%2F3o699uTiBtGU02TQ%2FtLOtBkwomz4%3D)

D&D smells like thick, 1970s real paper books infused with cigar smoke.

We already have one of these, but ours is called a "candle".
I did try enhancing a game with some incense once, to match a scene in the adventure, but one of the players voted no to smoke.

I was the one who DMed for our group 85 percent of the time, so my response is, of course . . .
FEAR!
Heh, heh, heh . . .

There’s also a D&D-branded line of beard oils, which is one of those sets of words I never expected to type.

And people thought D&D frisbees were overkill.

D&D smells like homemade lasagna*, brownies*, and/or pizza with a light surface of Coke and Dr. Pepper. Or that was my teen experience. Nothing can top that. (*Thank you, Mrs. Wall!)

Lets hope they don't release a "Con Gamer" scent.
Though it would be the only legit one, if they did.

D&D smells like well oiled leather and Damascene steel, horse sweat and pine needles, old growth trees and moss; rusting portcullises, sweet rotting flesh, goblin piss, and ogre sweat.
D&D smells like gold and silver and blood and snot.
D&D smells like the stink of the gorge rising in your throat fighting back the stench of dragon fire in your face.
D&D smells like death and broken dreams.
