tried the PG stuff and still did not feel it
Indulge me for a second...
My wife and I used to get into this (silly) debate about whether skunks actually "smelled" or not. I think they do (of course) have a very discernible odor, though not necesaarily bad unless you actually get sprayed. My wife, on the other hand, said she could not smell skunks. She (born and raised in Los Angeles) had never even seen a skunk in person until she moved out to Michigan in 2000. Everytime I smelled a skunk near by I would ask her if she smelled it and she always would take a deep breath in through her nose and reply, "Nope!" It used to drive me nuts becasue I could not understand how that was possible. (There are many skunks around my way and unfortunately they have this notion that they can make it across the busy streets.)
One day I was driving (on an empty) street and smelled the telltale signs of Pepe Le Pew very near. I casually slowed the car, rolled the windows down and asked her to close her eyes and describe what the air smelled like. She described it as very earthy, slighly dark, woodsy and almost like burning leaves. It was at that moment when I asked her what she "thought" a skunk was supposed to smell like. My wife said she thought skunks were "supposed" to smell very offensive, rancid and like a concentrated version of a landfill full waste!
So, it wasn't that she didn't smell skunks, it was just that what she smelled was not what she thought she was looking for. It is my assertion that you are probably experiencing it, but it is nowhere near what you "thought" it should be.
