In the base game of Elden Ring, Perfumers are one of the toughest enemies to deal with. But Perfumers found in Shadow Land of Shadow of the Erdtree DLC really come into their own, turning their consumable containers into fully functional weapons.
Now, Tarnished also have a new weapon type that can also use the power of Perfume Bottles. Although there are few Perfume Bottles for you to choose from, the ways they can be used are very interesting. Also, because of their relatively low attribute requirements and strong attack power, most players are now more and more fond of using Perfume Bottle Weapons.
In Shadow of the Erdtree DLC, each Perfume Bottle will cause a specific type of elemental damage or status effect. This guide will introduce you to the location and usage of each Perfume Bottle in the DLC, making it easier for you to fight and make the most of it.
Firespark Perfume Bottle
- Attribute Requirements: Strength 3, Dexterity 14
- Default Weapon Skills: Kick (can be improved with new Ashes of War)
- Upgrade Materials: Regular Smithing Stone
Firespark Perfume Bottle is the most commonly used by Perfumers, but it will not drop after you defeat Perfumer. You can only get it from Messmer's soldierspast across Ellac Greatbridge, and you can only have it once in the game.
Starting from your Gravesite Plain Site of Grace and heading north, you will cross a fortified bridge. Enter Messmer’s soldierspast on the right and look for an open chest. Inside is Firespark Perfume Bottle you want.
It is guarded by a group of very vigilant Perfumers. You can choose to defeat them to gain more XP and Elden Ring Runes, or just leave them alone.
Deadly Poison Perfume Bottle
- Attribute Requirements: Strength 3, Dexterity 13, and Arcane 18
- Default Weapon Skills: Deadly Poison Spray (cannot be infused)
- Upgrade Materials: Gloomy Smithing Stone
As the only Perfume Bottle with Arcane-scaling, Deadly Poison Perfume Bottle can deal accumulated physical damage to enemies. And with its unique Deadly Poison Spray skill, it can spray the poison evenly on you and your surroundings.
This is very suitable for use with Kindred of Rot’s Exultation Talisman and Mushroom Crown, so that the passive effects of these Elden Ring Items will be fully utilized.
To obtain Deadly Poison Perfume Bottle, you need to go to Thiollier near Pillar Path Cross Site of Grace and get this weapon for 6,000 Elden Ring Runes.
But when Thiollier moves to Stone Fissure Coffin, you can no longer trade with him. So is there no other way? Of course there is! You can also trade from Twin Maiden Husks after giving them Moore’s Bell Bearing. It will combine Thiollier’s and Moore’s items together, and you will have to choose your own.
Chilling Perfume Bottle
- Attribute Requirements: Strength 3, Dexterity 13, Intelligence 13
- Default Weapon Skills: Kick (can be improved with new Ashes of War)
- Upgrade Materials: Regular Smithing Stone
Like Bleed, any item that can cause Frostbite and drain a large amount of enemy health is a must-have, and one of them is Chilling Perfume Bottle. Although Frostbite cannot cause continuous damage like Bleed, fortunately, Chilling Perfume Bottle can cooperate with Firespark Perfume Bottle to trigger continuous Frostbite.
To obtain this can’t-miss Perfume Bottle, you need to go to Charo’s Hidden Grave and then enter Lamenter’s Gaol. Then go down the ladder to the dungeon and open a locked door. You will find Chilling Perfume Bottle in the first room.
Frenzyflame Perfume Bottle
- Attribute Requirements: Strength 3, Dexterity 10, Intelligence 13, Faith 13
- Default Weapon Skills: Kick (can be improved with new Ashes of War)
- Upgrade Materials: Regular Smithing Stone
Frenzyflame Perfume Bottle requires you to go to Abandoned Church in Abyssal Woods to get it, and the steps to reach Abandoned Church are also very troublesome.
You need to make your way through Shadow Keep, and when you reach the rampart with the burning ship, drop down the ladder to the southeast.
Go down another ladder to a room and run into the strange wall to the southwest to reveal a secret passage to a stone sarcophagus.
Ride the sarcophagus to reach Ruins of Unte, from where you can start your ride south to Recluses’ River Downstream Site of Grace. Continue riding south and jump off the cliff ledge to the ground below to reach Darklight Catacombs dungeon.
Make your way through Darklight Catacombs dungeon and defeat Elder Inquisitor Jori to activate the first Site of Grace in Abyssal Woods, Forsaken Graveyards.From there, just walk south and you’ll reach the Abandoned Church.
Enter the church to get a Map Fragment of the region and find the Frenzyflame Perfume Bottle in the northeast corner.
What you need to pay attention to here is that since Torrent is very afraid of the atmosphere of Frenzied Flame, you can’t use it here, you can only walk alone.
Lightning Perfume Bottle
- Attribute Requirements: Strength 3, Dexterity 16, Faith 14
- Default Weapon Skills: Kick (can be improved with new Ashes of War)
- Upgrade Materials: Regular Smithing Stone
On your way to Cerulean Coast, you will find a small pond southeast of Ellac River Downstream Site of Grace on the map, with a huge lightning ram spinning around it.
In addition, there is a corpse there, from which you can pick up Lightning Perfume Bottle. Although Lightning Perfume Bottle was a bit nerfed in the recent patch because it was damaged by Ash of War Rolling Sparks, it can still easily kill bosses that are not resistant to Lightning damage.
These are all Perfume Bottles in Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree DLC. You can choose this weapon appropriately in the battle to make your battle easier! I wish you more happiness in the game.
