A deer scent dispenser is provided for use in the field to attract deer. The dispenser is comprised of a cylindrical container provided with a bottom reservoir for liquid deer scent. The upper part of the container has plastic screen walls which hold a wick of absorbent biodegradable rayon, cotton or the like. The wick is supported upon a spindle and spaced from the interior wall of the container to provide for maximum diffusion and avoid dripping of scent on the wall. A cap closes the container at the top and a loop or bail detachable at one end for fitting over a support such as a branch is provided for supporting the container. The screen wall of the container has openings of a sufficient size to provide visual inspection for the condition of the wick and the reservoir and to receive a probe for moving the wick to ascertain the level of the liquid. The reservoir may be filled with liquid from the top by opening the cap or through the screen by slightly tilting the container.
