Luke Bryan's Hilarious Take on What Country Music Smells Like: Perms and Funnel Cakes

Luke Bryan shared a humorous response when asked what country music smells like, mentioning a perm at a hair salon and funnel cake. The 1980s and '90s saw big, permed hair as a trend, while funnel cake has become a fair staple where country music thrives. A perm, short for "permanent wave," chemically alters hair texture to be curly or wavy, lasting for months. The distinct smell of a perm in a salon may evoke memories for country fans from that era. Country music's fair season in the summer is synonymous with the aroma of funnel cakes cooking, making Bryan's description quite fitting. With his extensive career in the industry, Bryan is well-qualified to define the scent of country music.
