Guess that scent. A game:

Are freaking kidding me?!! Whew! WolfM, now I don't have to put a curse on you! Thanks!

Oh no! Now I have to put my thinking cap on. I'll get back with you guys later tonight, that is if I don't get blown away by a tornado.

Okay, maybe there is a need some explanation?
According to the most popular version of the legend - Phoenix lives for centuries, and of every 500 years (as much as subsisted a Roman Republic)*
upon reaching the end of its lifetime it build a nest or funeral pyre of frankincense, spices and myrth (basis that I mean)*;
Greek and Roman legend told of a bird of brilliant red plumage that emitted pure sunlight (radiate like a sun)*.
Joanne Kathleen Rowling used it at least once* - the fifth Harry Potter novel, "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix"
And "there is a connection with the right answer" when Beachgirl suggested Oriflame

Congrats BeachGirl! now get into a basement and keep yourself safe!

Hey Guys, No I live in Oklahoma and at this moment tornado sirens are going off. Right now tornados ARE indeed whirling about the state so I'm in no frame of mind to continue in the game. Someone else will have to take my turn. Thanks guys!

Be safe Beach. Report back later once they call all clear.

Way way way over my head! Congratulations Beach girl, I didn't even participate and my brain is fried!

Eep! Give us a holler Beachie so we know you're okay.

Oh,sorry guys!!! Yes, I'm ok, the tornados didn't come near my part of the city this time. I live just north of Oklahoma City in Edmond and all the tornados seemed to be hitting the south and southwest side of town. Unfortunately many others didn't fare so well. I think there were 9 killed (2 of them children) and 75 or so hospitalized. It was just terrible! Thanks for all your concern!!

I'm not certain that Wikipedia is authoritative. Perhaps your clue could have read like this instead:

"A Persian honorific for West and South Asian cultures and a piece of material make up the fragrance name."

Then I would have won!

Glad you're O.K., Beachgirl2. It's terrible the amount of tornado damage that seem to be occurring in Oklahoma in the last few weeks. My thought go out to the families effected by these nature disasters.

Thank you so much Flaconneur! I've had quite enough of hiding from tornados in the last two weeks to last me a lifetime. But my discomfort can't even come close to the suffering and horror that others in this state have experienced. Thanks again you guys for all your concern!

"24, Faubourg - Jeu Des Omnibus Et Dames Blanches Hermes" by Hermès.

So small omnibuses exist, but "Dames Blanches" not look like this at all:



I thought it refers to Équipage

Calèche by Hermès

Then I better consult you in future, before I decide on any clues.

I think you're right ( this Calèche is exactly what I would prefer to rent for a tour)

This fragrance shares its name with a remote mountain fortress.

LOL! Not necessary, MiaVonTrost.
