Crayola Silly Scents Colored Pencils and Crayons: What's Inside the Box

In 2006 Crayola started the Silly Scents line.  It is definitely a distinct line and who would want to smell lots of these smells, Alien armpit, big foot feet, rotten tooth fair, and ogre odor?  They do not smell very good and some reviewers on Amazon say they smell like old perfume.  I would definitely have to say that the Magic Scent crayons are ten times better! Fresh Air is my favorite from that line. I think they were trying to avoid kids eating the crayons by making these ones, but I think they went too far in the opposite extreme.  I hope Crayola brings back scented crayons, but not these ones. They kind of remind me of the Harry Potter Jelly Belly's that imitate the Bertie Bott's Every Flavor Beans from Harry Potter, which included vomit, soap, and boogers.

*Update. Crayola has brought back this line in 2017. Usually they name new lines a new name, but this time they did not. The new line includes: wedge markers, Twistables Colored Pencils, Twistables Crayons, and Slim Markers.

The crayon wrapper is unique too, the color names and title of the crayons run horizontally instead of vertically.  They also feature a picture of the unique smelling monster.

  1. Why scent them at all when "Crayola Crayon" is such a good smell?
