Please bear with me here...
The other day I was driving along and drove past a very recently deceased skunk. It was fresh enough that the smell was of the "make your eyes water" variety. Which, for some reason, made me think about OC spray.
Has anyone ever made an OC-types spray that also incorporated some sort of long-lasting extremely foul odor?
In your opinion, would something like this be more or less effective than regular OC?

Trapper-
Kinda, I'm not sure if we found a link to actual Skunk Spray.

I don't imagine it would be very effective. I'm pretty much immune to skunk smell since I grew up in the country. Heck I know a fellow that got sprayed full on and when to a movie like that. People noticed. He didn't care. Yes, he's kind of rude at times :)
I'm so used to it it's not even an unpleasant odor anymore to my brain. Same can be said for cow dung. Stuff like that makes people want to puke, makes me kinda feel at home. :D

Giga, I'm the exact same way. To mee the smell of dead skunk and cow poo gives me the same good feeling as the smell of forrest or the beach does for a lot of people.

I was hit with OC spray in the face for my PI test.
That stuff makes you hurt for a very long time and there is no getting away.
I am sure all of the Police on here have been hit with it and know the lasting effects.
OUCH!!!

A few years ago, I read about research into a "crowd control agent" that used butyric acid as it's base. Butyric acid is what gives rancid butter it's vomit-inducing aroma.
