Nifty.I don't mind the smell, but most people can't stand it. It is certainly a weird thing to prove/investigate, but meh. Its all good.

I got a better experiment, you can usually smell a guy's keys from a girl's keys by the strength of said odor. It is not 100% accurate, but gave me and a friend a good laugh letting girls know their keys smell like guys keys.
