Clothing may smell good enough to eat
NEW YORK (AP) -- How sweet it is: a shirt that smells like a chocolate bar.
The Chocolate Shirt, a division of Scent Branding, infuses a long-lasting chocolate fragrance into 3-D appliques for T-shirts and other garments.
The first four appliques feature a shirt with a bite taken out of it, "chocolate" with hearts replacing the O's, "Hello, I'm a Chocoholic" and "I (heart) Chocolate."
Each month, more appliques will be added as will other flavors, according to the company.
The shirts have a milk chocolate-colored bodice and dark chocolate-covered trim.
If they're laundered properly -- in cold water, without fabric softener and turned inside-out to dry -- the scent should last for 50 washings.
