I am a firm believer in every little bit counts. Scents/attractors rattles
and such. One thing I strongly believe in is the little wet wipes that are
sent removers. Most sporting good stores have them. I fill my boat fuel
tanks at the lake allot of times and it doesn't matter how careful I try to
be I end up with it on my hands. These hide the fuel smell excellent.

It's my determination that "scents" don't really work as much as
attractants as they do as a scent masks... When I'm being anal about
my tackle, I'll put a few drops in my worm bags of that stuff that
smells like licorice... seems to work ok, I guess... but as long as
you don't handle the baits too much I don't see a real necessity for
them.

I can see the garlic/salt infused thing being a positive, though...
Italian fish, who knew?! :^)
