>>28767530>it looks pink so it must be that it's supposed to be cuteI don't understand your logic to begin with. Not all things are cute. Things can be pink and look weird. Period. No pun intended.
Perfume is a good book, they made a movie about it too, in case you don't want to read. But the only reason I mentioned that book is because smell and aroma is so important in that story. It's really the best book I can think of that talks so much about smells, aromas, and perfumes.
The story is basically about a kid who was born and has an amazing sense of smell. His smell is so good he can say how a person feels and is (good vs mean) just by smelling them. He smells "foul smells" in a lot of people, implying people in general are self-absorbed and don't care about each other. He gets a job working as a disciple of a perfume maker in Paris. One day, when walking randomly through a market, iirc, he smells a girl and becomes intoxicated with that smell. To him it's the most perfect smell in the world. He follows her, she finds him creepy and tries to run away, he corners her and accidentally kills her. Her dead body starts to lose her smell. So he collects her body and puts it in a giant glass tube to conserve it, to try and regain the smell. He never achieves this in the novel. He later tries to recreate that smell, only to actually create a perfume so powerful that he can manipulate people with it. He's arrested, and then when he's about to be hanged he spreads his perfume on the people and everyone just starts a massive orgy in the middle of Paris.
Basically that novel is one giant metaphor for deceiving people by moral manipulation. But it's pretty good at implanting the idea of the things we people do when we get intoxicated by intense smells.
Aromatisse looks creepy (weird big eyes, looks like it's wearing a mask) but also vaguely feminine and instinctive. It just looks like a perfect pixie/sprite/elf representation of an intense aroma to me.
