According to [Epic Scents](http://epic-scents.com/?ref=killscreen.com), a new company set to create air-fresheners of licensed videogame characters, Capcom’s Mega Man smells like “the essence of a boy put into a man’s role.”

Um, ok. But what does that smell like?

> “There is a purity in him, he has a real pure heart,” Kavanaugh said, “but there is also masculinity, and bravery.”  
>  
> Those three notes, purity, bravery and masculinity, become the trinity of notes that form Mega Man’s scent.  
>  
> For the purity of heart, the perfumers went with a very fresh clear note, like a fresh tropical breeze. For Mega Man’s masculine side, they introduced a musky note, to make it “closer to a men’s fragrance.” And finally for bravery slight citrus notes.

This kind of interpretive scent-making may just be a PR ploy, or it may be that commerce, videogames and artistry are uniting once and for all in an apex of aromatic triumph.
