What did Paisley Park smell like?

Did it have a neutral smell like an office complex or did he keep it constantly scented?

Take this with a grain of salt... since we know Graceland has been making up some details to fit the narrative that they want...

When I went to PP last April, when we sat in the NPGMC to have brunch, I noticed employees misting the room. My GF asked what it was (cuz the place DID smell nice) and they said it was Lavender essential oil. That he tended to wear it himself and Paisley always smelled like it.

I'd never been to Paisley while he was still here with us, but this was my experience last year.

Ha!
Honestly, I have kind of always thought he was more talk than action in that department. The "Prince Persona" was highly sexualized. Not sure about the man himself.

Yeah that's the smell I picked up when I went on the tour...It wasn't too strong and it wasn't too faint.

It was always heavy incense/candle smell. One of the home pictures released last week showed a specific candle he was stocked up on in different colors. When you would stand in line for shows, you could tell you were getting close because of the smell:). That is one thing I wish the tour would change because I did not smell anything when I went.

Now that it is a museum, they use lavender & chamomile Glade plugins and also use lavender oil in the bathroom diffusers.
