(CNN) - When it comes to the male pursuit of women, guys are not real choosey when it comes to the scent of a woman.
But, there is one aroma that does pique a man's interest.
Welcome to Seattle's Blue Marble Energy, where chemists are cooking up a perfume made from the waste products of a local organic brewery.
"This is a viscous sludge," said James Stephens. "It's a mixture of about 50,000 different kinds of bacteria."
Black sludge, rancid beer grains, green slimy stuff and it is all good for the Earth and for consumers. The grains replacing petroleum in the process making this perfume completely carbon neutral.
Unfortunately, despite the ingredients in the new "Eos" perfume, it does not smell like beer. But the local, handmade perfume by Sweet Anthem does smell nice, coming in both masculine and feminine versions.
Back at the bar, a test group takes their nose out of the beers and try the perfume. It gets a thumbs up, but the guys are still pushing for their own product.
"Beerfume," suggests one bargoer. "A lot of people like beer and a lot of people like women."
