The odor is described by Hasbro as a "sweet, slightly musky, vanilla-like fragrance, with slight overtones of cherry, and the natural smell of a salted, wheat-based dough."
"The scent of Play-Doh compound has always been synonymous with childhood and fun," said Jonathan Berkowitz, senior vice president of global marketing for the Play-Doh brand. "By officially trademarking the iconic scent, we are able to protect an invaluable point of connection between the brand and fans for years to come."
