TWST - fragrances!
Disclaimer: I have not personally smelled most of these perfumes; I chose them based on their notes.
Just because a brand has been added it does not mean I support it or align with their values; I am focusing on the products on their own. The majority of these perfumes are quite expensive anyways - if you like any, I suggest directly looking for a dupe.
I picked these with the characters' preferences in mind rather than trying to encapsulate their scent/vibe. My explanations are added to each one!
Due to the photo limit, only the main cast are present. I will make a future post with others :)
As usual, I ask you to not repost any of the photos/the post itself outside of Tumblr or within it.
My main sources have been Fragrantica and Wikiparfum (some images used are from their website), along with the brands' sites.
The notes are mainly sorted from top (the ones you smell first) to bottom (the ones that linger last), though I have been unable to verify some's placements, thus they are presented in what I assume would be their order.
HEARTSLABYUL
Notes: pink pepper, blackcurrant sorbet, pink rose, peony, salty vanilla, patchouli, cashmere wood
I wanted Riddle's liking for sweets to be present, though not overwhelmingly, so opting for a floral scent was a better way to show it. I would have searched for an aldehyde-having perfume, but I feel like he already has that clean laundry smell from his clothes.
Notes: orange, elemi, star anise, lavandin, clary sage, petitgrain, fir balsam, cypress, pine needles
I imagine Trey spends enough time surrounded by sweet gourmands to want something softer, though even if he hadn't been a baker, he still gives the vibe of enjoying herbals.
I had also chosen Velvet Cypress, which matched beautifully with its greenness, but the scent profile wasn't my first bet... :(
Notes: jasmine (and sambac), ylang-ylang, watermelon, carambola, magnolia, blackcurrant, green mango
My mind immediately went to fruity sweetness when it comes to Cater, though a toned down version with the involvement of florals. He'd want to match his bubbly image while not overwhelming his senses, right?
Notes: citrus, amber, cedarwood, tonka bean, vanilla, sandalwood
Now, the fact that one of the most popular perfumes matches what I had in mind for Ace is genuinely coincidental. I do see him buying this as a treat for himself though, regardless of it being trendy.
While he is pretty masculine, there is a freshness still present that would reflect in his perfume - he still lacks the maturity and taste of a man.
Notes: Sicilian bergamot, mandarin, green apple, cashmere wood, cedarwood, petitgrain, violet, pomarose (not pictured), oakmoss, musk, amberwood (not pictured)
In contrast to Ace, I picture Deuce to enjoy fresher and sweeter scents, which is how this perfume made the cut. He seems more open to wear less traditionally masculine fragrances.
SAVANACLAW
Notes: rosemary, sage, black pepper, star anise, plum, birch tar, cumin, Bulgarian rose, myrrh, tobacco, suede accord, leather accord, honey, oud, praline, frankincense
Leona is what Ace still lacks, though more wild and carefree in comparison to an older man. I definitely see him using perfumes with leathery smells rather than herbals or fruits, unless they're toned down; a big part of it is his sensitive nose of course.
Under the roughness, there is a sweetness to be found.
Notes: salt, timur pepper, ginger, bergamot, black iris, saffron flower, violet leaf, blue cypress, suede, oud, mastic absolute, tobacco leaf
Considering Leona's hand-me-downs to Ruggie, I feel like he would have included a perfume from his younger years too. The profile is similar to the current one, yet lighter thanks to the inclusion of more florals. I think it also matches Ruggie, having some parallelisms to Leona yet toned down.
Notes: amaretto, leather, wood, patchouli, musk
Despite maintaining the leathery vibe, Jack strikes me as if he would enjoy sweetness, though in the form of flowers. This perfume only really has patchouli as a plant, but the amaretto, musk and wood make up for it with a deeper & warm sweetness.
OCTAVINELLE
Notes: quince, grapefruit, hyacinth, jasmine, iris, musk, cedarwood, amber
Azul is a synonym for powdery and light florals to me. I do see him using more classically masculine fragrances as well, though still a softer version.
I had originally assigned him Jersey (Chanel) because of the lavender, but this one fit better.
Notes: pear, lily of the valley, aldehydes, iris, rose absolute, orange blossom, patchouli oil, ambrette seeds, white musk
I think we can all agree Jade is the president of aldehydes; the cleanest linens you will ever experience. He'd incorporate florals too, especially those he finds during hikes - a deceiving softness.
Notes: mandarin, sea water, Egyptian geranium, clary sage, lavender, rosemary, oak moss, patchouli, vetiver, vanilla orchid
People have said this smells like the holidays, which couldn't be more fitting. Floyd has the freshness of a fruity perfume without really having it in its profile (there is a citric note of course). He would also use less conventional scents, such as sea water.
SCARABIA
Notes (most I have confirmed, but beware that some I'm doubtful on): bergamot, red berries, blackcurrant, florals, mandarin, honey, caramel, almond, patchouli, sandalwood, vanilla, chocolate
I feel like Kalim is a gourmand person; he'd go for the caramels, vanillas, coconuts...I actually wanted to find a perfume with coconut and flowers for him, but I settled on this one since it also fits.
Notes (not 100% verified): mate, pink pepper, violet leaf, clary sage, patchouli, bergamot
Albeit simple, Jamil's perfume is definitely a nice one. His choices would be influenced by aromatherapy; he'd definitely wear calming scents. A lot of herbals, but there are some richer fragrances in his collection for special occasions, like ambers.
POMEFIORE
Notes: jasmine (sambac), orange, bergamot, mandarin, gardenia, orange blossom, sandalwood, white amber, cedarwood, white musk
As soon as I got to Vil while brainstorming, I knew one of the Poison perfumes had to be in his hands. He definitely combines the softness of florals with the sharpness of citrics and the richness of ambers. His fragrances are a luxurious dessert that leaves you wishing for more.
Notes: thyme, tea, lily of the valley, saffron, rose, suede, musk, sandalwood, olibanum, amber
Based on the description we got, I wanted Rook to have a perfume with amber and musk, though with other notes too. Originally I thought of Jo Malone's Midnight Musk & Amber, but since it is discontinued, this one took its place. I find the scent profile to match Rook better; he'd want something herbal to soften the warm richness.
Notes: aldehydes, rose centifolia, peony, violet, musk, sandalwood
If I may be honest, I first assigned this to Vil (I know, the name), but since I wanted him to have a Poison perfume and eventually found a better scent profile, this one seemed more fitting for Epel. It's especially fitting post-VDC once he starts embracing his femininity, yet with the deepness of musk and sandalwood highlighting his strength.
IGNIHYDE
Notes: aldehydes, citric, clary sage, ozonic notes, musk, ironwood (hornbeam)
Originally I imagined Idia would reach for a more metallic scent, though I couldn't find any I particularly liked (I don't even know what metal perfume smells like...), so I opted for my first thought: aldehydes and citrics. While Idia does enjoy his candies, I feel he'd want a very simple scent profile, and this perfume was perfect.
Notes: lemon, mandarin, orange, rose, jasmine, ylang-ylang, cedarwood, musk
Like Idia, Ortho to me would reach for aldehydes (which this perfume has) and citrics, though his fragrances would be sweeter. I imagine he'd mask the metallic smell with it.
DIASOMNIA
Notes: Italian lemon and mandarin, mint oil, candied apple, geranium flower, clary sage, ambermax, cedarwood, vetiver, patchouli, sandalwood, vanilla
While still very masculine, I feel Malleus' choices would have a sweetness to them, wanting to lure you in with a sense of safety.
I smelled this perfume years ago and still remember how much I loved it; it truly is fitting to him.
Notes: wild berries, blackcurrant buds, musk, blackberries
Immediately, my mind went to berries. Lilia would heighten his cute image through sweet scents, especially fruits, though he could reach for gourmands.
Notes: fig milk, mandarin, sandalwood, violet, tonka bean, musk
Silver is on the natural side; he'd reach out for florals and herbals instead of overwhelming scents. Though he reminds me of clean linens too, in a warmer way - like the creaminess of a lactonic without them. It comes through thanks to the notes in this perfume.
Notes: lavender, rosemary, petitgrain, clary sage, geranium, ambery wood
Out of everyone in the Diasomnia quartet, Sebek feels like the one that embraces masculinity most, especially its sharpness. Though because of his age, it still has a softness present through floral hints.
A relative of mine has owned this perfume, and it's a rather nice scent. I definitely see Sebek wearing it to strengthen his appearance.
