Chang-soo (Yoon Shi-yoon) is your average guy, content with a life of minimal effort and zero interest in romance. Enter A-ra (Seol In-ah), a hardworking woman who seems to have it all, except for love. Their paths cross every day as they share the same bus to work, yet they’ve never exchanged a word. That is, until fate steps in with a twist.
A mysterious perfume finds its way into Chang-soo’s hands, and suddenly, he becomes irresistible to any woman who catches a whiff. A-ra, by chance, falls under the perfume’s spell, and their romance kicks off with a magical spark. But just as they start to connect on a deeper level, A-ra’s ex, James (Na Jong-chan), reenters the picture, hell-bent on breaking them apart after uncovering Chang-soo’s secret.
As the story unfolds, we witness Chang-soo and A-ra’s relationship evolve from a perfumed fantasy to a genuine connection. But the looming question is: Will A-ra still cherish Chang-soo when she discovers the truth behind their enchanting beginning?
‘Love My Scent’ is a delightful romp with a lighthearted plot that’s perfect for a cozy movie night. It’s filled with laughter, a touch of magic, and a heartwarming message about true love transcending even the quirkiest beginnings.
