True Art Is Incomprehensible is now an in-universe trope as per TRS.


* As already mentioned, this trope is the basis behind cologne and perfume, and thus is behind many [[TrueArtIsIncomprehensible often artsy]] ads for cologne and perfume, as well as Advertising/TheManYourManCouldSmellLike and other Old Spice commercials.

Added DiffLines:

* The heroine of ''VisualNovel/DiabolikLovers'' has a unique physical constitution - she is a part-demon chimera by transplantation. As a result, vampires find her blood unreasonably delicious and they can smell it through her skin. Her scent is also very pronounced and they can [[FollowYourNose follow their noses]] to her almost literally. Being [[ParanormalRomance that sort of story]], she finds herself surrounded by a throng of vampire pretty boys and discovers (rather reluctantly) that [[KissOfTheVampire vampire bites are hot]], even when the vampires themselves are [[{{Jerkass}} incredibly mean]].

* ''Literature/DragonBlood'': [[spoiler:Tisala]] sniffs Ward's clothes after he has gone away to let himself be imprisoned in an insane asylum where no one has escaped, yet. She feels a bit silly about it, noting that he probably doesn't like her back, and she's behaving like a creep. (Also, there is no need to get sentimental about his being away, as she of course plans to break him out as soon as she has recovered from the severe injuries that led to him giving her his bedroom to sleep in in the first place.)

* ''Series/H2OJustAddWater'': Zane buys a cologne made of ambergris, which stinks about as much as one would expect from whale crap. Unfortunately, mermaids are mesmerized by the smell, which causes problems when [[{{Jerkass}} Nate]] sprays himself with it and all three of the mermaid trio can't keep their hands off him. Thankfully, saltwater washes the cologne off, so Cleo, Emma, and Rikki are able to return to normal and swim like hell away from Nate when he tries to go swimming in the ocean with them.

"Axe" is what Americans call Lynx, right?

Added DiffLines:

** One advert for Lynx featured a woman who, leaving the house in a hurry, liberally squirted her husband's Lynx over herself. For the rest of the day she is fighting off lots of enamoured women expressing an interest in her. The message is that Lynx is so potent it turns women into lesbians.
