Nowhere in this description does it say..."Covered in perfume."  Nowhere.

"Condition: Used - Very Good - Item will come in original packaging. Packaging will be damaged."

Now, I'm going to have to wash this several times and apply waterproofing.  That eat's up the $10 I saved by buying it as an Amazon Warehouse Deal.

Why would anyone spray a backpack with perfume?  I'm a fat, middle-aged, hairy guy who was looking for a smaller alternative than my old Northface Borealis.  I wan't looking to be the pied-piper of grammar-school girls.

Other than the perfume, this fit the bill. Smaller, lighter, able to carry 3L hydration bladder.  There is enough room to carry keys, wallet, headlamp, snacks, jacket, backup water bottle/bladder.  Mesh pouches on the sides are great for stuffing trash or water bottles.

The only thing that's missing is a loop for holding hiking poles.  On hot days, you need to wipe the salt out of your eyes.  With the pole loop, there are fewer accidental impalements on the trail.
