scented
Given a fragrance
Scented means having a smell, usually a pleasant one.
Scented candles, scented soap, and scented lotions have had fragrance added.
A scented garden features plants chosen for their aroma.
The word almost always implies deliberate pleasantness—you wouldn't describe garbage as scented.
