Smells Like School Spirit?

We've already established we don't go to Penn State. But...what if we did? Well, then we could rock Masik's Penn State fragrance! Yeah, we think it's bizarre too. Says the company's site:
Creating the "signature scents" is more scientific than you may think - Of the five senses, only our sense of smell is linked directly to the brain’s limbic system or emotional control center. Because of this link, a particular scent or fragrance can evoke memories and emotions before we are even consciously aware of them. This connection between scent and emotion is what enables Masik’s perfumers to link a school’s essence and spirit to fragrance compositions.So, what does a Penn State girl smell like? "Graceful and pure...with notes of sparkling cassis, raspberry blossom, star jasmine, rose, dewberry blossom, lilac, white patchouli, amber, vanilla and tonka bean." A Penn State dude on the other hand radiates "masculinity, passion and honor...featuring notes of armoise, bergamot, juniper berries, chilled gimlet accord, violet leaf, blue cypress, cracked pepper vapor, clary sage, lavender, vetiver, moss, black amber and patchouli."
I think we'll pass for the time being. The real question is, what would a Penn fragrance smell like? Gia, Bui's, and a little hint of scandal?
