if cleopatra were a scent, what scent would she be?

according to basenotes.net, the online social network for people who love smells, here are some possible candidates for cleopatra in odor form:

  • l’occitane’s eau d’iparie
  • jasmine and sandalwood
  • pink pepper + wormwood + clove + french labdanum + oak moss + styrax + leather
  • hermès’ eau de nil
  • papyrus reed
  • oil of lily
  • a blend of cinnamon, myrrh, cardamom, saffron, frankincense and calamus,
  • opium
  • estée lauder’s youth dew

i am not making this stuff up, people. this is real.
