John Mayer won't be selling smellies any time soon.

In an interview with The Independent, he said: “I'm not selling 'John Mayer: the cologne'. If I did it would just smell like sausage and sleep.

“Who out there really goes, 'You know what, I just f**king love perfumes. I always have since I was a kid. If I weren't a pop singer, I'd be a perfumier...' (sic)?”

The singer also defended his decision to joke about making members of his audience pregnant at a recent gig.

John said: “Standing on stage with a twinkle in your eye and saying 'somebody's getting pregnant tonight' is cute. I'm just goofing off.”

The star, who has been linked to a number of Hollywood women since his split with Jennifer Aniston, also admitted he enjoys texting various women.

"I can text whatever I want to anybody in the world; I'm not married. I write a lot of dirty text messages to girls," he said.
