In ancient civilizations, perfumes were used as offerings to gods and to ward off evil spirits. The Greeks believed that perfumes had healing properties and that good smells could drive away evil spirits.
Christians are the aroma of Christ in the world. In a very real sense, believers make Christ present on earth, as He is in them. Read 2 Corinthians 2:15.
*Demonic perfumes* are perfumes that are associated with dark or evil forces. Some people have used perfumes as magic potions to cast spells or as a way to protect themselves from evil.

"Mary took about a pint of pure nard, an expensive perfume; she poured it on Jesus' feet and wiped his feet with her hair"
*Ecclesiastes 10:1*

Over time, as perfumery techniques advanced, fragrances became more accessible and started to hold a significant place in personal grooming and societal rituals.
These days, there are specific perfumes that contain spirits that attract demons.
Specific scents. Rituals and incantations have been done to produce these products. Familier Spirits often give the manufacturers the ideas and ingredients.
People who apply the perfumes, aftershaves, roll on, etc. start coming up with different spirits like Lust, Sicknesses, even Death, etc
Some are seductive in nature. That's why when certain women walk past a group of men, they seem dazed and staring at her. Think of the Versace logo, versace perfumes, think of the merdusa head, snakes, Lust, etc.
Ladies, there are certain perfume products that are demonising you. Men also certain aftershaves products as well as perfumes are demonising you.
It may smell good, but there's a spirit behind it. Spirit of Lust, spirit of misfortune, spirit of poverty, spirit of death, etc.
Our Weaknesses & The ENEMY'S tactics.
If the devil were to take you out, how would he do it?
1. Would it be LUST leading to an affair?
2. Would it be GREED leading you to cut corners to get ahead?
3. Would it be PRIDE so that you become so self-reliant that you that you push away those who love you most?
4. Or maybe the enemy would play mind games with you. Maybe he will get you thinking about all that you don't have while comparing yourself to others.
5. Maybe he would send you into a deep dark depression or cause you to be an anxious overcontrolling person.
HOW WOULD THE EVIL ONE GET TO YOU? WHAT'S YOUR WEAKNESSES ?
This affects and covers everyone. There's a world full of deep, dark opposition, and we need to know how it works.
*IT WORKS ON OUR WEAKNESSES OFTEN REPEATING THE SAME PATTERNS* until we get wiser and stronger, fixing our weaknesses.
Please recognise your weaknesses. *THE ENEMY ATTACKS US WITH PATTERNS. NOTHING IS NEW.*
Allow Jesus into your heart and life to transform YOU via his Holy Spirit. *BE BORN AGAIN.*
