Capitalizing on the germaphobia craze, there have been plenty of water-less hand sanitizers on the market (like Purell). The problem with all of these sanitizers is that they smell like alcohol. Occasionally they're dressed up and mixed with fruit scents, but they still smell bad. What if the high end perfumers got in this business, and started making their own sanitizing products? After stepping off the subway, a woman could disinfect her hands and smell like Chanel or Escape. Many of these perfumes are not delicate scents - and would be strong enough to mask the smell of the cleansing product.

Many people, like myself, find strong perfumes as repellent as the smell of alcohol but that's a matter of taste.
This is a great area of opportunity for the bigger perfume houses. I know thatmy biggest gripe with purell is the extremely powerful alcoholic smell after application. So if they can concoct a "softer" smell, then it would be practical.
Overuse of hand-sanitizers and other anti-bacterial agents may be the cause of rising rates of allergies and auto-immune disorders (see the hygiene hypothesis)
I would definitely purchase this product...not only do you kill bacteria, you smell good at the same time!
I agree, sounds good and I'd buy it. I sanitize alot at work and always smell like a doctors office afterward.
