Perfume doesn’t seem to hold the law in high esteem while she did chase Ranma-chan to Japan she became devastated upon learning his true gender as she wanted to marry someone who actually cared about her.

## Biography

Perfume bullied Shampoo when her inability to defeat Akane started effecting her skill. When Shampoo was finally able to defeat Perfume since she left soon afterwards no one was aware that she had regained her strength. A combination of this and her hypersensitivity being revealed by Mousse caused Perfume to become a laughing stock. However she was still the village champion so Cologne named her as her new successor.

Naturally she became the village champion so when Ranma and Genma entered the village half-starved soon Soon after getting cursed at Jusenkyo and at the first prize she challenged Ranma. Since Cologne had been driving her into the ground every since her parents sent her to train with her 4 years ago. Perfume allowed herself to be defeated giving her an excuse to leave the village ad get away from her.

However, Perfume eventually tracks female Ranma down and resumes her attempts at murder only to be stopped by Akane whom she recognized. Learning that she was staying at the Nekohanten Ranma attempted to defeat her again this time as Male however he proved to be no match for her. It wasn’t until he mastered the Grand Lightning Punch that he managed to defeat her. She became furious upon learning that Shampoo was the one who taught him the technique thinking she did it on purpose to humiliate her. She calmed down upon learning that she was engaged to Ranma as a chance to get out of the marriage.

Perfume ended up falling for Mikado charms, but upon realizing what a womanize he was. She became so furious that she ended up attacking him during the Golden Pair’s match against Ranma and Akane even giving him the kiss of death. Mikado proved to be tricky prey he quickly moved and Perfume couldn’t find him. at least until Nabiki trader her his whereabouts for Mix 612.

When she tracked him down she in avertedly ran over Ukyo who ended up attacking her in response triggering her hypersensitivity. Ukyo bandaged Perfume up and offered her food and as thanks as well as not making fun of her she showed her places to set up her restaurant. Perfume quickly fell in love with Ukyo though it is unknown at the time if she is aware that she’s really a girl when she declared her, her husband.

The group tried to set her up with Mousse in response to this but they have a very antagonistic relationship due to him bullying her when they were children in retaliation to her bullying of Shampoo.

Perfume was devastated when Cologne showed up in Japan to check up on her progress. Upon being informed about Jusenkyo and her giving Ukyo the Kiss of Marriage she quickly resumed her role as Perfume’s teacher while imposing herself into the business of the Nekohanten. During which time Perfume tried to ask why Cologne was so hard on Shampoo but was quickly cowed.

When Shampoo disappeared on a delivery and she couldn’t get ahold of the Tendo she called Ukyo to inform her what was going so on. Later she informed the group that Cologne had the other Friendship Bracelet after recognizing Mousse’s.

It is revealed that Perfume knew all along that Ukyo was a women when Cologne decided to get involved and easily recognized her true sex. Against Perfume’s wishes Cologne hit Ukyo with the cat's tongue pressure point technique preventing her from being able to cook.

Perfume told Ukyo about the phoenix pill and helped her train to master the kachu tenshin amaguriken along with Mousse. While Ukyo stressed that she was not attracted to women. That didn’t deter Perfume from trying to win her heart. Ukyo was able to defeat with a variation of the technique she and Mousse created and in celebration took everyone out to dinner. Stressing to Perfume that it wasn’t a date.

When Ukyo went to Perfume for help in searching for Shampoo they both recognized Bu Xien when they returned to Ucchan’s. Ukyo from the description given to her by Ranma and Perfume from when he went to the village searching for Shampoo. The two followed him hoping he’d lead them to Shampoo. Turns out Bu was hoping for this and told them to tell Ranma that he challenged him to a fight stating that he’d let Shampoo go if he lost, but Ranma would have to drink the potion of lost love. As Shampoo was surrounded by explosives they were forced to comply.

Cologne made Perfume work off the time she spent injured. While she still tried to visit Ukyo during her break she ended up passing out in exhaustion after she got there. In response Ukyo agreed to take her out on a date if Cologne let her have a day off.

Naturally Perfume was ecstatic upon finding this out though a little upset that Mousse was going as a chaperone she made the best of it. She even won Ukyo a bunch of crystal sculptures.

During this time Ukyo made it known that while she appreciated all thtPerfume had done for her she only saw her as a friend, and a relationship wouldn’t work because she wasn’t attracted to women. Growing up in the village this concept was foreign to Perfume and she begged Ukyo for a chance even pointing how she used to be friends with Ranma yet fell in love with him. Ukyo couldn’t give her a chance because it would be false hope. The best she could offer was allow her to keep up appearances for Cologne’s sake. Perfume decided to take what she could get, but didn’t give up.

Perfume agreed to show Natsume and Kurumi around the restaurant. A decision she quickly regretted when Kurumi stole a bowl of ramen angering Cologne. As punishment she made her kill Bu Xiang for thwarting one of her attempts at getting Ukyo to marry Perfume.

Unfortunately for her, and fortunately for Bu, she didn’t have that much success. While chasing after him she ran into Nabiki allowing her to express her frustrations about her relationship with Ukyo to her. Nabiki prevented her from her from doing something drastic and stopped her from being scammed.

Bu not wanting to deal with Perfume went to her to Cologne to they could make a deal about helping her with Ukyo. Cologne agreed and Bu reformulated formula 612 so that it worked on women.

She came across Ukyo as she was spying on Ukyo and Mousse’s date and figured she was trying set him up with Nabiki. Perfume suggested that they go in the restaurant together so Ukyo wouldn’t attract attention.

While listening to the two Perfume was annoyed to find out that Mousse had told Nabiki what happened between them. Ukyo mentioned that she knew as well during small talk and got her to see that he had changed over the years and was sorry.

She finally got a chance to put on the perfume when Nabiki and Mousse went to the park. She initially thought it had worked when Ukyo claimed they were on a date only for it to be Ukyo’s way of getting out of explaining why she was following them when caught.

She spent the rest of the date trying to get up wind of Ukyo without bringing attention to herself. A sudden gust of wind gave Ukyo a full blast of the perfume only instead expressing her love for Perfume she angrily expressed her annoyance and told her to leave her alone.

Though before Perfume could register this she was assaulted by Nabiki who also effected by the perfume told her that Ukyo was already dating Mousse, stop chasing after someone who wasn’t interested and expressed her feelings for Perfume. Unfortunately she accidentally pushed Perfume off a slope (though this was actually Mousse manipulating things).

For a normal person they would probably sting like hell. For Perfume it was like someone had thrown her into a fire. When she finally woke up an hour later at Tofu’s she confronted Nabiki about what happened, but only asked her if like Ukyo she was only interested in men. When Nabiki answered that she didn’t care she bit her on the nose and left.

Perfume suddenly woke up in a void staring at the version of herself from the original universe. A figure of light floated a short distance away, as each wondered what was going on until the figure started glowing brightly.

Realizing that the other version was trying to take over her body Perfume attacked her counterpart in an attempt to stop her. Only to be instantly knocked out upon making physical contact due to the protection she wore. Perfume was left in the void as she slowly fused with the original.

When the Original Perfume went back to her universe Perfume was left in a deep kind of hibernation. Which she didn’t come out of until the Original Perfume returned and they were refused.
