VIRIDIAN LABYRINTH
[/center][rule]
[columns]
[item=nature runestone]
[nextcol]
If I could describe the rainforest region of Nature in one word, it would be "overwhelming". The stench of a thousand flowers in bloom, while individually lovely, all blend together in a mess that it is impossible to escape from. This is a place where aromas go to die. The Emperor of the olfactory world. For scent thrill seekers ONLY.

So what you're really saying is that the Viridian Labyrinth smells like the scented candle section of a 1991 JCPenny...

@/LittleParade, you're thinking of the entrances to Macy's, Sears, JCPenny, Nordstrom, Boscov's, Wanamaker's, and Strawbridge & Clothier. I'm talking about the candle section, with every floral note known to humankind, from natural to synthetic, often synthetic and almost always layered with a vanilla note so powerful the scent would linger in your nose and migraines for days.

I think the question needs to be asked... Did you work at a JCPenny in 1991 because this description is getting very specific
Also, just to add my opinion here, from my memory of being in something close to a rainforest when I was younger and being in various greenhouses through my life as well as having stepped into places with different kinds of scented products, it's like two different kinds of overwhelm. Natural flowers and stuff, sure yeah it's overwhelming, but you'll generally walk away unharmed unless the plant has some sort of other element to it's cent that produces additional effects or you have a pollen allergy. Synthetic stuff however, too much of that stuff and I'll have a headache for the rest of the day that nothing can cure.
An ancient stone bearing the ancestral rune of the Gladekeeper. Such a find should be kept as a prized possession.

As someone who's job is making candles, somehow the "every floral scent known to mankind layered with a vanilla note" has saturated my entire being. I don't even have to make a floral or vanilla candle... it's just always there. Haunting me. Forever. Just like the ghost of every JCPenny.

Now I want flight-themed scented candles. Plague's can be a rebranded can of surströmming.

I would buy this merch...

That fake vanilla [insert floral] combination fragrance was truly a formative experience lol [emoji=skull size=1]

Plague and Nature should be in first/second. Do you know how smelly plant material can be and then the fleshy soup in plague? Those have got to be the stinkiest.

Light. Light without question. I did think about Wind for a second but no, they would have less intense, more natural scents - a little woody, a little grassy, a little floral. Light is so overpowering that thinking about it makes me a little queasy. To reference the original post, I guess it's to try and counteract the giant zombie.
Now I don't know how but while thinking about this I came to the unshakable conclusion that Icewarden uses those shower gels For Men that never actually say what their scent is, only that they're infused with Zinc or whatever.
