In one book, I introduced Ochre weed, it is basically a very sappy weed which the sap is very odorous.
It grows together, expanding year by year.
It is used in making perfume so it is not all destroyed, but towns and cities prefer it not be nearby. (Down wind is terrible)
The only way to get rid of it is to burn it, and the sap is not overly flammable.
The sap is sticky and doesn't lose its scent very quickly.
The MC flees into the middle of a large patch to hide from slavers. Horses will not enter it, as they lose their sense of smell, and the patch is fairly thick, so they can't see if something is hiding in it.
When she is able to leave, she washes in a nearby creek, using mud to scrub the sap off.
She must find new clothes, as the scent does not leave the fabric.
What else can I use for her to get rid of the smell?
I don't think a tomato juice bath would be possible in the poverty stricken region of Medieval times.
