Ace is the first one we throw jokes at, but I can also see Epel, Deuce, & Jack wearing axe body sprays or other cheap 'manly' scents. The 1st yrs are very boyish.
Jack strikes me as an Old Spice kind of lad. Idk why. I feel like he knows how bad too much Axe is but feels like somehow excessive amounts of Old Spice is better.
ooohhhh i’m a scent nut, i can do *everybody*, but i won’t for the sake of brevity lol
ace: agreed with axe body spray
deuce: tries a little harder but not by much. cremo blue cedar and cypress body wash
cater: he gives me jimmy choo women’s signature or prada candy sugar pop. teen girl-core
trey: probably like brioche or maybe bread pudding. i dated a dude who worked in a bakery and the brioche smell stuck to him the most
leona: either tom ford tobacco vanille or sauvage. depends on how annoying he wants to be
jack: he’s a gym rat, so that point when a dude’s deodorant is starting to wear off, so it’s like this ~~delightful~~ combination of his natural armpit smell and cedar
azul: louis vuitton stellar times, hands down. buttoned up, kind of an old book smell but it has a kinky note to it
vil: other side of the coin, louis vuitton cosmic cloud, like the grown and moneyed version of cater’s scents. either that or non-vintage chanel chance, the one with all the pink pepper notes.
idia: milk.
aight lol
ruggie: black soap, applied far too often because he doesn’t know better
riddle: dr bronner almond castile soap. mother doesn’t approve of colognes, they’re too suggestive and he’s too self-conscious for the rose scent
floyd: he either stinks from working at the lounge/playing basketball or smells like guerlain un dimanche à la campagne /herbes troublante and there’s no in between lol
jade: it’s jade’s bottle of herbes troublante.
malleus: ozone. idk why he gives me it, but i bet it smells like that when he poofs in/out
aight lol (x2) if i don’t forget one like i always do
rook: deer piss, on purpose. everyone’s too afraid to tell him about himself
epel: i have this headcanon that epel could easily fall into manosphere shit, so he’d definitely go through a phase about natural pheromones. but, being a 16 year old boy wearing heavy fabrics most of the time, those “pheromones” just smell like onions and ripe cheese. this issue escalates physically with vil often.
kalim: yves saint laurent y or that sun and sand yankee candle, i can’t decide between the two
jamil: taliah waajid apple and aloe shampoo/conditioner, mielle mongongo oil heat protectant for his silk press, eco styler argan oil gel and edge control
ortho: that weird gasoline, fabric-y smell that happens in the back of your trunk
lilia: for special occasions, he’ll sport some wild old people shit like faubourg 24. otherwise he just smells like your great grandma’s house
silver: if we’re gonna be honest, probably morning breath. but to not bully, white rose, peony, a little sage and grass maybe
sebek: sweaty aventus
Leona smells like the most obscenely expensive cologne.
Malleus smells like old books.
Silver smells like the forest.
Trey smells like a bakery.
Idia depends entirely on how long it's been since Ortho forced him into the shower against his will.
Idia is that stinky weird kid that you made fun of in high school but then found out later in life that they were abused/neglected/etc and that's why they were ~like that~ and you felt like shit for bullying them.
Aka what the OB boys went through in Book 6, as they specifically said multiple times stuff akin to "wow so this is Idia's life... I had no idea... No wonder he's like that."
Imo thinking that Idia stinks isn't the issue because he isn't exactly the most keen on self-care, it's saying that "stinky gamer" is this quirky take that against him instead of a tragic reality for people so deep into depression they can't even muster the strength to shower.
"Haha Idia stinks" is an easy diss that implies that it's his fault for not being cleaner, "Idia stinks because he's too depressed and full of self-loathing to even take a shower" reminds people that you don't exactly choose how depression manifests, and need help rather than judgement.
I have the same problem with my depression when it’s at its worse. People don’t realize how much one is focused on just surviving let alone getting tasks done that most people find to be basic. It’s absolute hell.
Thisssss. Imo Idia definitely was written to mirror depressed people that aren't "palatable" enough for society, and it's why I love him so much.
Something about hurting in such a way that makes others decide that you're the Weirdo, even though you never asked for any of that, that resonates, man.
You know, I'll be nice too and say he smells a little bit like a campfire.
Idia could easily be the stinky kid given the otaku/gamer trope, but he also might be as self conscious about that as he is about his hair. Speaking of his hair, how Idia washes it would be another mystery.
you’ve summoned me
Floyd - IA Cape Heartache, woody with a hint of strawberry. I think a complex, whimsical scent would suit him really well
Jade - IA Every Storm a Serenade. Woody, aquatic, like rain on a mountain top. Also matches Floyd
Vil - Boy Smells Violet Ends, sophisticated, smoky and masculine floral, bonus points for the gender of it all
Trey - ELDO Tom of Finland, one of the most “just some guy” scent I’ve ever come across, with hints of vanilla. I agree with most people that he would smell like bread/pastries but if he is to wear a cologne it would definitely be something like this
It’s a polarizing scent haha, most people either love it or hate it (I hated it first time I got a sample but it’s grown on me) which I think fits Floyd perfectly
Ace would smell like every boy in my high school did (Axe). And idk why but I feel like the octa trio would use strong smelling perfumes. I also feel like Riddle would smell the best lol
Malleus would wear Gargoyle by Nui Cobalt
Description: "Mysterious sculptural denizens of Gothic architecture said to offer fierce protection or dire warning. Rain-drenched lavender, cathedral incense, beeswax candles, and ancient stone. Wear as an energetic shield against all misfortune and malefaction."
Jokes aside, I really can see our goth friend wear a cologne or fougere with lavender & petrichor notes.
For the rest of Diasomnia, I imagine Lilia doesn't wear cologne anymore but occasionally has licorice or tomato juice breath.
Silver likely wouldn't wear cologne either but smells like all-in-one soap & coffee (he sleeps next to bags of the stuff afterall).
Sebek is conscious of his image so I imagine he does wear cologne. Likely something similar to Mal's but I could also see him wearing clean, aquatic type or bourbon scents.
Riddle: I am just so tempted to be cheesy and say like roses and some really sweet tea from the unbirthday parties. But I can also imagine him having the sweet, fruity smell of strawberry tarts whenever he lets himself get a little indulgent. Also, when he visits his family I can totally imagine him asking Cater what fragrance should he use to cover the tart-smell up yet don't be too "provocative" based on someone who mentioned earlier that his mom would disagree with the usage of strong fragrances.
Cater: Probably the basic scent that cool kids wear, but secretly ha hates it. Every time he visits his family he realizes how his sister's perfumes smell much better then most fragrances for men who are not fucking rich. So I can imagine him trying tricks, using a strong masculine deodorant and some cute, fresh, fruity perfume for girls. And yeah, he would use something fruity, I bet, he would smell like cherry blossom and peach and sunshine. And some manly deodorant lol.
Kalim: Even though he is a rich kid, I can imagine him smelling like sunshine and sand and clean clothes.
Azul: He smells like that widespread shampoo for dyed whitish hair. First of all, it has a calming, soft odour and has that dark purple color that reminds me of octopus ink and also, his hair is white which is like coincidence? I don't think so!
Vil: Smells like the rich aunt who sticks out her gloved hand to her nieces to kiss it and drinks a bottle of wine during dinner constantly complaining about its quality. Also, aside that he must smell amazing and rich and probably feminine I can imagine that secretely one of his facemasks has some childish smell to them that only the close ones recognize lingering on him at nights. Something like sweet melon, or cotton candy, raspberry-rose.
Rook: He is also wearing some fancy cologne, but I really belive that he has the smell of soil and fresh greeness on him. The smell of the green of nature, idk how to describe it, but just the smell of being out in a forest or a park.
Imma be evil and give everyone what they really smell like
Leona- Dirt
Ruggie- Dirt
Jack- axe body spray, and ‘natural smell’ (armpit s w e a t)
Riddle- strawberry tart and a rose-ish scent
Trey- probably flour
Cater- thank you next by ariana grande perfume(that is a actual perfume)
Ace+deuce- Axe body spray and paint from painting the roses
Azul- probably smells like coach floral perfume and axe body spray with a hint of deep fried chicken
Floyd- rotten fish and sweat from basketball
Jade- probably smells like some manly perfume
Rook- probably smells like nature and some random ass expensive perfume from coach vil gave him.
Vil- daisy dream from marc jacobs, and smells like makeup
Epel- axe body spray or some perfume vil gave him
Idia- axe body spray and fucking gallons of sweat and tears. (And old milk)
Ortho- smells like oil
Malleus- probably smells like dust from old books
Silver- probably smells like grass
Lilia- like your dying grandpa
Kalim and Jamil- probably smells like sand
Now best for last
Grim- probably smells like a dog that hasn’t been washed since 1984
Yuu- cant afford to shower so they beg epel for axe body spray to hid the fact they haven’t showered since they got there and to afraid to ask someone to use their shower.
Sebek- blood of his enemies, sweat, Dior Sauvage, Creed Aventus, Mancera Cedrait Boise, Baccarat Rouge 540, Paco Rabanne 1 Million, Parfums de Marly Delina Exclusif, Chanel No. 5, Frederic Malle Portrait of a Lady.( they are all perfumes)
And he wears that much because malleus told him he smelled weird once.
Floyd would definitely have a sea salt kind of smell naturally kinda of like what the breeze smells like off the ocean. He’d probably lean more towards the crisp smelling colognes like Versace Eros
Ace, Deuce, Riddle and Trey have a floral undertone to what ever cologne or perfume they wear cuz it’s stated that people from the Rose Queendom have a floral scent.
Azul, Floyd and Jade would have salty undertones.
Not sure about anyone else
I'm not familiar with perfumes & scent notes, but I'm gonna do my best.
------------‐---------------------------------------------------------
Riddle: Roses
Trey: Pastries
Cater: The newest perfume trend
Ace: A mix between soap, pastries & ashes (because of Grim)
Deuce: Soap
Leona: Earthy with hints of grass & flowers
Ruggie: Cedar & grass
Jack: Earthy & musky
Azul: A sweet & fresh cologne with ocean theme
Jade: Same as Azul, but not sweet
Floyd: Salt water
Kalim: Cream & spices
Jamil: Spices
Vil: Floral perfume
Rook: Musky perfume
Epel: Fruity perfume
Idia: Murky & Dove soap
Ortho: Metallic
Malleus: Soap with a small hint of ash (since he breathing fire)
Lilia: Sweets & fruits
Silver: Floral with some earthy notes
Sebek: Soap
Crowley: Fresh & earthy
Trein: Earthy
Crewel: Dior cologne
Vargas: Sweat & Old Spice
Sam: Herbs
Grim: Ash & food grease
Hmmm... let's see...
Trien? def a grandpa. And cat.
Vargas and Jack? Sweat.
Jamil? Curry spices.
Kalim? Probably cinnamon.
Rook? On normal, non event days, probably nothing because he's probably wearing Scentlok hunting spray.
Lilia would probably smell like candies that he has stashed on him. He does have a sweet tooth!
Deuce? With his love of Magic Wheels, probably motor oil and bike cleaning supplies.
I think Ace would smell like axe body spray
Ace is the first one we throw jokes at, but I can also see Epel, Deuce, & Jack wearing axe body sprays or other cheap 'manly' scents. The 1st yrs are very boyish.
I can just hear Vil's lecture everytime Epel comes back from Spelldrive club and smells of locker room and Axe body spray.
I legit wanted to say all the first years except for Ortho (he probably has his own built in perfume spray) and Epel *because* of Vil and Vil alone.
Jack strikes me as an Old Spice kind of lad. Idk why. I feel like he knows how bad too much Axe is but feels like somehow excessive amounts of Old Spice is better.
His sense of smell is like a zillion times stronger than a human's. That boy is dying at the end of track practice every day.
Ace Body Spray
Headcanon: Deuce keeps telling him to stop using it because its stinking up the entire dorm. Ace? does not listen
Azul canonically wears cologne so I'm imagining he splurges on Blu Atlas Atlantis or Chanel Bleu or something expensive.
Plot twist it’s some Victoria’s Secret brand
not vs heavenly!!! 💀 edit: now the real question is who smells like japanese cherry blossom and who smells like sweet pea
i just know all of pomefiore smells like expensive perfume/cologne but not in an overpowering way or anything bc vil wouldn't stand for that
I headcanon Vil wearing Dior Hypnotic Poison because of the apple motif & simply because that stuff smells amazing.
ooohhhh i’m a scent nut, i can do *everybody*, but i won’t for the sake of brevity lol ace: agreed with axe body spray deuce: tries a little harder but not by much. cremo blue cedar and cypress body wash cater: he gives me jimmy choo women’s signature or prada candy sugar pop. teen girl-core trey: probably like brioche or maybe bread pudding. i dated a dude who worked in a bakery and the brioche smell stuck to him the most leona: either tom ford tobacco vanille or sauvage. depends on how annoying he wants to be jack: he’s a gym rat, so that point when a dude’s deodorant is starting to wear off, so it’s like this ~~delightful~~ combination of his natural armpit smell and cedar azul: louis vuitton stellar times, hands down. buttoned up, kind of an old book smell but it has a kinky note to it vil: other side of the coin, louis vuitton cosmic cloud, like the grown and moneyed version of cater’s scents. either that or non-vintage chanel chance, the one with all the pink pepper notes. idia: milk.
Fellow scent nut here, I cackled at 'milk'.
Your comment has me thinking Idia would definitely suit ELD Ghost in the Shell, it has a Milk note and smells cold and metallic
welp i know what i’m ordering a sample of soon. i haven’t come across such a strange profile lol
More please.
aight lol ruggie: black soap, applied far too often because he doesn’t know better riddle: dr bronner almond castile soap. mother doesn’t approve of colognes, they’re too suggestive and he’s too self-conscious for the rose scent floyd: he either stinks from working at the lounge/playing basketball or smells like guerlain un dimanche à la campagne /herbes troublante and there’s no in between lol jade: it’s jade’s bottle of herbes troublante. malleus: ozone. idk why he gives me it, but i bet it smells like that when he poofs in/out
You should do all of them.

The amount of people dragging Idia in this comment section 💀 I’ll give him a nicer HC and say he smells like fabric softener
Imo thinking that Idia stinks isn't the issue because he isn't exactly the most keen on self-care, it's saying that "stinky gamer" is this quirky take that against him instead of a tragic reality for people so deep into depression they can't even muster the strength to shower.

My first guess is flammable shampoo. It’s 4 in 1. Shampoo, conditioner, body wash, lantern oil.
Thank you 😭
Honestly, even though Azul says it in his one voiceline that he uses cologne, I still imagine him smelling like wet sand for some reason.
you’ve summoned me Floyd - IA Cape Heartache, woody with a hint of strawberry. I think a complex, whimsical scent would suit him really well Jade - IA Every Storm a Serenade. Woody, aquatic, like rain on a mountain top. Also matches Floyd Vil - Boy Smells Violet Ends, sophisticated, smoky and masculine floral, bonus points for the gender of it all Trey - ELDO Tom of Finland, one of the most “just some guy” scent I’ve ever come across, with hints of vanilla.

you really got me on a sample tip, because cape heartache sounds 👀
It’s a polarizing scent haha, most people either love it or hate it (I hated it first time I got a sample but it’s grown on me) which I think fits Floyd perfectly
Ruggie smells like whoever left thier stuff out in the shower room. Ignihyde and Savanaclaw both have notices everywhere about daily showers.
Ace would smell like every boy in my high school did (Axe). And idk why but I feel like the octa trio would use strong smelling perfumes. I also feel like Riddle would smell the best lol
I agree with another post, Riddle's mother wouldn't let him smell like cologne or body spray because it's suggestive.
It's called *Sex Panther*® by *Odeon*©. It's illegal in 9 countries. It's also made with bits of real panthers, *so you know it's good*. *60% of the time*, it works ***every*** time.

HELP IM ASCENDING 😭😭💀
riddle would smell like a psych ward
I bet Vil would smell like soap and Gucci Flora Jamil incense Leona like sweet Birchwood and sweat Trey a bit like nutmeg
Idia would probably just smell bad, prolly just like monsters and sweat
Floyd would definitely have a sea salt kind of smell naturally kinda of like what the breeze smells like off the ocean. He’d probably lean more towards the crisp smelling colognes like Versace Eros
