Scent

Tyson’s apartment generally smells like sweetpea, and dog. Mostly dog.

He washes Lily and Bobby regularly with a eucalyptus-scented shampoo, but in such a tiny - cozy - apartment it’s hard to remove the smell completely. Honestly though, Tyson likes that smell. It’s earthy and homely, and familiar.

Tyson himself generally smells like:
Vanilla, (-milk and honey) apple, earth, parchment (+almond)

Despite his intense dislikes of cars that borders on a phobia, Tyson rather likes the smell of diesel and petrol. Smoke is familiar from his time in the army and smoking, though not necessarily liked. More of a neutral acceptance. The scent of gunpowder and oil go into a similar place.

† Only applicable to Tyson’s main Sebastian Moran/The Colonel.
‡ Tyson doesn’t remember what she smelt like specifically, but he associates those scents with her as her art room smelt that way.
