Crackling Cologne: Chicago Man Releases New Bacon Based Fragrance

Ever stop at a truck stop and think, “Gosh, I wish I could smell like this bacon everyday to drive women crazy.” Well, wait no longer. Chicago’s John Leydon has released “Bacon” by Fargginay, which will give you that “fresh from the diner” smell.

You can choose between “Bacon Classic” (with a “spicy maple aroma) and “Bacon Gold” (“sizzling citrus.”) for $36 a bottle.

You can wear it on a date to Denny’s which has introduced Bacon Sundaes.

Leydon insists that the fragrance is perfectly unisex — both sexes can be improved by smelling like a short-order cook.

After all, pigs were the product of “husbandry” going back for centuries.

The brand is named after John Fargginay, a Parisian butcher “who accidentally uncovered a ‘magical elixir’ of oils and the essence of bacon in 1920.”

By the way, I recommend that you put on your bacon cologne before using your bacon torch:

  1. Ay, Why not meet her in Boulder? It is much nicer in the summer. Gyges is right. I am lucky that I have one kid on Austin and one in Boulder. Both of them are among my favorite cities.

  2. You see Gyges,

    That is the perfect time to be there…They are gone…that is the operative word…

  3. AY,

    Yeah, but it’s still in Texas. I mean, who would go to Texas in June? That’s when all the unwashed masses come to Colorado to stare at woodchucks.

  4. Gyges,

    Austin…like a whole nuther country… like no other place to live… used to be…you could do pretty much anything you wanted and the cops would just join you…really..

  5. For SL…. I have been back to Austin….home of the Willie downdrafts if you stand just right….and haven’t got caught once….

  6. Just a bit, Arnold. 😀

    You, SL, Austin?

    I’ll need to keep bail money handy. 😉

  7. AY,

    You name the place and time, I’ll be there with shirt on and bells-a-ringin’!

  8. As a woman, I would be proud if my man wore bacon-scented cologne … but only if he were just as proud of me and my wearing a, “I’m with Stupid” T-shirt.

  9. I don’t want to smell like food. That’s why I stopped working in restaurants.

    Also, did I mention I bought a quarter of a small farm raised pig? Best pork I’ve ever had. It all looks like actual red meat.

  10. When I want our dog to do something he does not want to do, such as come inside and he is not ready, I just ask the magic question, “Want bacon.” That brings him running for his bacon treat–in his world view bacon is the best thing ever. If I were to dare wear that cologne, I would be taking my life in my hands.

    I do not even want to think about what might happen to our meter reader…..

  11. Anyone taking bets on how long it takes before a dog bite liability case is filed? Anyone? Because there’s only one thing that smells like bacon and that’s BACON!!!!!! Or maybe not. Why not just go for the trailer park perfume tri-fecta and make one that smells bacon, cheap plastic and Pabst Blue Ribbon?

    Ahhhh . . . consumerism thy name is stupidity.
