I don't know about chenille, but you can put a small piece of sponge inside a tube to hold scent.

Im sure scent works and help but i dont think its a deal breaker. I have been wanting to try scents more but do fine without. You could possibly take a chamois and cut it into little strips and soak it in your scent and then just attach a strip on you hook. My dad talked about catch bluegill on chamois when he was a kid with no bait. Uncle josh used to make panfish pork, same principle.
