when looking through the weird items for sale on that website yesterday I came across a listing for a perfume called "lion princess backside". "WTF", I thought, the way you do, and it turns out that there's a whole line of "perfumes" aimed at furries that are supposed to smell like various sweaty animal bits.
"Lion princess backside" has the following delightful review:
"Small bottle with a very delicate fragrance not really musky par se no animal pheromones here so if your hope was to smell like an animals arse it is more to your imagination to do that."
"AMAZING CHEESY UNDERTONES" hahaha
(This review Product is for the Custom Proud Lioness Feet Musk) I feel like this shop truly has magic in a bottle. Amazing cheesy undertones and makes it smell quite like the real deal and so far my favorite smell.
"Easily our strongest foot scent in the store. Let daddy shove his bare, sweaty feet in your face. This scent has heavy foot musk, dirt, a hint of dirty gym socks, and a bit of natural hyena smell, too."
HAHAHA lovely!
"In fact, it seems he also wanted to disgust his co-stars on set. According to Alicia Vikander, who plays his last Queen, Catherine Parr, he got fellow actors into the mood with a bottle of a vile-smelling scent he had mixed up to recreate the worst personal odours of the period."
Jude Law apparently had the same idea in his portrayal of Henry VIII in Firebrand.
@riggbeck I found one supplier of "deer musk" perfume (already ethically dodgy as it comes from actually taking stuff out of a deer gland, which process doesn't leave the deer intact) where the aroma was described as "urine... with a fecal aroma".
So, smells like piss and shit then?
Also super expensive. And requires deer murder.
There is truly some bonkers stuff out there!
