In other words: what does your puppet smell like? I was just surfing Black Phoenix Alchemy Lab (www.blackphoenixalchemylab.com) catalogue, and Violette Market (www.violettemarket.com), and started considering just what perfume some of my characters might pick...

Regina:
Maenad -- Orgiastic mayhem in the extreme: sweet strawberry and orange blossom distorted by carnation, black poppy and hibiscus.

Hollywood Babylon -- The essence of innocence shattered: glittering Egyptian amber and heliotrope, infused with the sweetness of strawberry and vanilla - dragged into debauch by lusty red musk and a dribble of black cherry.


Ashara:
Mouse's Long and Sad Tale -- Vanilla, two ambers, sweet pea and white sandalwood

Tamora -- Amber, heliotrope, golden sandalwood, peach blossom and vanilla bean.

Blanche:
Regan -- A deceptively sweet orchid vanille with a faint trace of stephanotis
Lady Macbeth - The essence of ambition, covetousness and manipulation: sweet Bordeaux wine, blood red currant, thyme and wild berries
Cleopatra Testing Poisons On Those Condemned to Death -- Accords of peach kernel, hemlock, aconite, and belladonna, with bitter almond, saffron, honey, myrrh, hyssop, frankincense, and palm.

I always think of sandalwood and jasmine for Pippa but these two seem appropriate:

Morocco -- The intoxicating perfume of exotic incenses wafting on warm desert breezes. Arabian spices wind through a blend of warm musk, carnation, red sandalwood and cassia.

Salome -- A scent that is both coquettish and sinister. Exotic and lush, brimming with grace and viciousness: almond with star jasmine, oakmoss, red sandalwood and Egyptian musk.

For Victor!!
Crowley -
Crowley had dark hair, and good cheekbones, and he was wearing snakeskin shoes, or at least presumably he was wearing shoes, and he could do really weird things with his tongue. And, whenever he forgot himself, he had a tendency to hiss.

Infernal musk, red patchouli, lilac cologne, mahogany, lemon rind, oakmoss, leather, and vanilla husk

Whitechapel - A gentlemen's blend, possessed of dignity, charm and refinement, but in truth masking a corrupted, hideous, soulless core. White musk, lime, lilac and citron



Galleazzo
Titus Andronicus -- Dark musk and black amber with frankincense, red sandalwood, neroli and bergamot.
Manhattan -- Sexuality, power, confidence. A meeting of modern, sleek elegance and rich, passionate history: sheer amber, black leather, white mint, lemon peel, white tea, grapefruit, kush, teakwood and orchid.

Beatrice:
Venice - A complex, voluptuous scent that captures the robust beauty and of the Italian Renaissance: lemon, red currant, wisteria, red rose petals, heady jasmine, Florentine orris root, waterlily, red sandalwood, violet plum, and violet leaf.

Rome - Refined, austere and graceful. A recipe gleaned from Classical Rome: cypress, juniper, chamomile and rose.

Versailles - Grand, courtly and robust: a glittering, golden scent that would do Louis XIV proud. Gilded red and gold citrus with amber, ruby roses, jasmine and orris.

London - Venerable Victorian Tea Rose… twisted, blackened and emboldened with wickedness.

Okay, so she has a bunch of signature scents.
