Behave better?  More willing to donate your time, money or services?  Do unpleasant odors make you more aggressive?  Can a clean smell reduce crime?

Researchers at Brigham Young University seem to think so.  Read about their study here, then come back and tell us if you think it's true.

Interesting article.  We use citrus flavors to mask a lot of unpleasant smells already.  They are very commonly used in public restrooms and it does not seem to make much difference to the ones I visit about towels on the floor and water on the sink.  So I think it needs more resarch.
