I was amused to read that the fragrance originated by Frank Hoppe in 1907, dear to the hearts of us all as coming from the incomparable #9 gun cleaning solvent, is now available as an air freshener! For a mere $3.99, your room or car can now be reminiscent of those days when you and your dad used to clean your .22 on the kitchen table! It's available as a stringed dangler from Hoppe's or those retailers that will choose to carry it.

Interestingly, the book The Art of Manliness lists Hoppe's #9 as one of the top 15 manly smells, right up there with Old Spice cologne, scotch whiskey and gunpowder!

Check it out! Just the thing to get for the man or woman who has everything! Guys, you won't have to dab #9 behind your ears any more to evoke lust from your significant other! How great is this???

Cool! I got the same result by spilling a quart bottle of it into a shag carpet once, it lasted a long time, I loved it, my wife not so much!
 
I was just cleaning my latest find and was thinking how much I like #9s fragrance and the memories it brings with it.
I'm gonna have to get one for my truck,:D:D:D:D:D

My heart actually skipped a beat when I read this. I absolutely have to have this. Dreams do come true!!
 
It would feel like cheating if I wasn't cleaning and fondling my guns while smelling #9. Just don't know if I could take that shortcut with a clear conscience.
 
These Hoppes posts: "smells good like aftershave should", have got to stop. I've used it for close to 50 yrs when I have to. You can't be remotely serious. I don't know why these posts constantly re appear, the joke was worn out 49 yrs ago. IT AIN'T FUNNY NO MORE. Hoppes smells like dead body runoff was filtered through a rats ass.
 
Hoppes#9 is great,as is nitro & burning rubber together[i'm an NHRA fan]!I've always said,if women would wear this scent behind the ears,the divorce rate would plummet!;)

I WILL ORDER THIS!!!! My youngest son and I were talking about the pleasant and manly smell of Hoppes #9 this week. He told me we should make a "man candle" out of this potion and sell it. Looks like we are to late.....
 
It's the banana oil & kerosene that give Hoppe's its aroma.
I wouldn't get my hopes up for this new "air-freshener" to smell just like the real deal.
Just do what I do and hang a patch saturated with some Hoppe's from your mirror....;)

Disclaimer: No...I don't really do that. I was just kidding. Toxic fumes, you know.
 
Tell me something...

The plastic jars of it I have seen on dealer shelves...leak!

I like glass better, but I guess plastic has less breakage. :(

Tell me something, are the gallon "drums" plastic or metal, and how do they close, if at all? Do you use a can opener?
I'm low on my last quart, so I need to get some more.
