You guys don’t get it. Those products smell like that to appeal to women. If anyone even notices you smell like a woman, the obvious inference is that you have a girlfriend. Or at least spent the night with a woman. If it’s dilute enough to not really be noticeable, women will just find it appealing. Vanilla in particular is non-gendered, what you smelled like was a cookie!

That is good I suppose. But not in this country.

Guess you’ll have to bring fresh-baked cookies to work then, for cover. And also sharing. Pro tip: make them large, then break a few in half, depending on the gender splits in your workplace. Women who would like a cookie but feel guilty because of norms about dieting will happily take a half. Or maybe break off a quarter. But they won’t break one if none are already broken. Most men will enjoy taking a whole one because diet norms don’t apply to them. A few people will enjoy virtuously refusing them because vegan or something. Nobody will notice you smell like vanilla.
If you’re not a baker, or you have a friend with celiac, Rice Krispy Bars also have vanilla and are gluten free.
