FASHION

CLOTHES CAN STIR CHOCOLATE CRAVING

How sweet it is: a shirt that smells like a chocolate bar.

The Chocolate Shirt, a division of Scent Branding, infuses a long-lasting chocolate fragrance into 3-D appliques for T-shirts and other garments.

The shirts have a milk chocolate-colored bodice and dark chocolate-covered trim.

If they're laundered properly - in cold water, without fabric softener and turned inside-out to dry - the scent should last for 50 washings.
