what do your characters smell like?
ᴬ⭐ᴵᴼᴺ
Astroturf has a keen nose, ok
ᴬ⭐ᴵᴼᴺ
if there's not a distinct scent they favor like perfumes or equipment then obviously he wouldn't remember it
ᴬ⭐ᴵᴼᴺ
but if there's something they tend to use, or if they're diligent about upkeep, he'd commit it to memory
ᴬ⭐ᴵᴼᴺ
so enlighten me
ᴬ⭐ᴵᴼᴺ
gayest uncle
wysteria like soap and lavender (or whatever misc herbal shit might be seasonal to go into soaps at the time), and also paper/ink and something faintly caustic UuU*
gayest uncle
and Fitcher smokes a faintly sweet tobacco, so mostly like a particular smoke.

abby canonically smells like pine soap :~) but also sweat and blood and dirt a lot of the time too, lol
ᴬ⭐ᴵᴼᴺ
pine soap... that’s somehow really cute
christmas treej
definitely ink & paper, i think his soap preferences lean away from floral and more toward different herbal scents probably

Astarion favors lilac and uses leather oil for keeping up his doublet (though now that’s swapped since he picked up a stock leather jerkin for war effort stuff)
ᴘɪs
+ mud blood sweat nug shit etc whatever he's been splashing around it
ᴬ⭐ᴵᴼᴺ
he’s going to be delighted if/when he meets Petra

Lexie changes perfume with the seasons, all floral; summer is roses-sandalwood, and she is Not Shy about its application. Can be tracked by scent.
swan bride
sometimes incidentally wearing whatever cologne Byerly was

allumin smells like birch sap (or an equivalent) and lemons

I'll need to get back to you on this
Tᴀᴛᴇʀs.
I'm sure Ellie smells like dirt lmfao
Tᴀᴛᴇʀs.
And horses, and griffons. Probably like leather now too, used to be more gunpowder/gun oil but not so much anymore.
níkmaq
think of the worst smell then triple it ^

Bastien hot-combs his hair straight (the very old-fashioned way) and uses pomade on his head + mustache that hopefully smells like something nicer than straight bear fat. but idk what precisely. Something Nice.
kickero.
lyrium. which i've always assumed smells faintly of ozone
swan bride
mj
big fan of “unidentifiably nice smell” on “unidentifiably nice man”
mj
pfff hahaha.

also agree w/ Pel about the ozone, it’s canon that Templars smell like burnt ozone because of lyrium too.
mj
hot.
kickero.
cool i thought i remembered that from somewhere
ᴡɪɴᴛᴇʀғᴇʟʟ
soap, probably, nothing too exciting
a cursed bird.
john also smells like soap, whatever scent the gallows issue soap has in rotation. uses an oil on his hair and beard that's very lightly scented, faintly incense-y. he doesn't smoke regularly but he spends all his off hours in taverns and pubs with people who do so some of that lingers
a cursed bird.
derrica uses perfumed bath and hair oils, lots of fresh floral scents. end of day/extremely late evening is always taverns and smoke and liquor and sweat mingled with that
a cursed bird.
ellis also uses gallows issue soap, so whatever is happening there. but he also uses a particular beard oil that has a earthy, woodsy scent and a hair oil that smells lightly of cedar. but also standard issue sweat/blood/dirt/metal to varying degrees depending on what he's been doing in the course of the day.
