People complaining about overused scents in romance fiction/fanfic (vanilla, petrichor, woods, etc.) I raise you:
50+ volumes
Brimstone.

I know you've only ever heard of it in fiction and you think it's a cool and interesting scent to give your edgy demon character.

Guys just use "[insert tree here] smoke," it doesn't need to make sense
trick or traet
i don't think they do but i also think many don't know what sulfur smells like bc again it's so frequently used in relation to any depiction of hell & demons
BattroidBattery
when demons fart it smells like lilacs, that's the embarrassing smell to them
trick or traet
just say it smells like ash or something....... please........

ASH IS A MUCH NICER SMELL THAT SULFUR AND STILL HAS HELLFIRE IMPLICATIONS

Granted if it is supposed to be unpleasant, then yea, go sulfur, get that rotten egg for your nasty demon

Goin' Batty

Just for the love of everything, do not make your incubus smell like farts and/or rotten eggs
r💀ll them b💀nes
Puts a new spin on the tradition of egging houses, though

brimstone is great if you want your demon to be big and terrifying and scary! Or even nasty and gross.

But not if you're going for sexy.

Just personally, I've always been under the impression that since demons are just fallen of some form? That they're like angels are in the old 90s movie Michael.
They smell different to everyone. Cause they always smell like the most wonderful thing you've ever smelled in your life.

There's straight up a scene with a woman talking about how Michael smells like her Grandmother's cookies.

oh people who live in coastal areas know the smell of sulphur, they just don't know it
GD Mimics!!
it's the rank low tide smell
GD Mimics!!
you know, the one that smells like something died
GD Mimics!!
Great for an oceanic menace as well, tbh
GD Mimics!!
but if you want sexy and underworld vibes? everyone thinks of smoke and explosives but we also have the dry, sometimes chalky, scent of stones and mason dust
GD Mimics!!
heck, gasoline could be a fun one, too
GD Mimics!!
metals too - copper is a fun one
