Definitely the moon for deception. Luna something. Or Hermes/Mercury - the trickster god. But we can't use Mercury again.

Politically incorrect - could be any of those. Even Venus, Saturn...

I think we've got the theme with the planets.
So here are my guesses:

1. "Venus in Furs"
2. "Patchouly Jupiter's Perfidy"
3. "80Hg Mercury"
4. "The Good Earth is Rich"
I am positive that I've finally gotten #1 !

I think you have it! Venus in Furs for sure. And Patchouli is polarising so #2 must be right.

What an impressive collaborative effort. You got all four there, SystemeD. Congrats!

This fragrance should have been advertised using the first track on the album Blonde on Blonde.

"Pour Femme no.12" by Cereus?

No, but that was a good guess!

Was this house created
By a fan of these two guys?
They have some things in common
But the pairing's a surprise;

The singer and the saviour,
They have both achieved great fame,
They're worshipped by the faithful,
It's as if they were the same;

Did I mention one wears sandals
And the other's shoes are blue?
And your gender doesn't matter,
There's a scent for each of you,

Though both guys are reputed
To be living up in heaven,
I'm sure I saw the first guy
At my local 7-Eleven!

House and two fragrances.

Well done, Perfumecrazy! (I presume...)

Perfumecrazy, you are correct - Elvis Jesus it is!
I have long wondered about the name of this house - is it bad taste or is it actually a real person's name?
Over to you P...

Laughing I totally believe Elvis Jesus is someone's name. I was just disappointed the perfume notes aren't something like Frankincense, Banana and Peanut butter.

CLUE:

“Oakmoss, Suede, Patchouli and Thyme…”
Isn’t that a song?

How can all of these contain the sound of one perfume?
Steely Dan ‘Almost Gothic’
Iggy Pop ‘Punkrocker’
Willie Nile ‘Cell Phones Ringing (in the pockets of the dead)’
Marcy Playground ‘The Vampires of New York’

It’s easy if you listen very hard – it’s not as gloomy as it seems.

It's easy if you have a good memory, and used to hang out in Sheridan Square back in the day!

"Bleecker Street" by Bond No.9!

Well done! You got it S. Cool Amazing how many (pop) cultural references there are to 'Bleecker Street' - songs, books, movies.

Anyway, you're up...

Name both the house and the fragrance.

Hint: The name of the house is not a word in English, but the name of the fragrance is.

"Butterfly" by Hanae Mori is rather too obvious....so I'm delving deeper...

Do!

And keep in mind that "Hanae Mori" is a name, not a word. Wink

All righty, giving up on the lepidoptera theme and going with some Latin - how about "Purple" by Miraculum?

Incorrect.

Hint:
The name of the house is an Italian word, even though the house is not Italian.
The name of the fragrance is a word that is taken directly from the Latin, but entirely integrated into the English language.

"Aura" by Farfalla? Sound Italian but they're Swiss.

That's it, Perfumecrazy! Well done.

I was hoping someone would notice that the butterfly had an aura!
