I tried to come up with a beautiful word for stained glass, which the butterfly kind of has. But nothing came to mind to really describe the beauty that is this painting. I could come up with words to describe the perfume bottles, but didn't fit the butterfly. Or come up with words to describe the butterfly but didn't fit the bottles! LOL!
I like the play on jewels too. It's a monarch butterfly which is royalty. So Royal Jewels? I know you only wanted one word though.
Good luck in your choice! You have much to choose from.

"Scent"sual Perception or Sensual Perception ETA: I looooove the painting, BTW - it's gorgeous and delicate and all of the other adjectives other peas already said.  |

I love your painting but I don't have a title suggestion. However, I would try to avoid a one word title, sounds too much like the name of a perfume. Reminds me of the annoying perfume commercials. Does that make sense? Anyway, your work is awesome as usual.

jenjie- no worries about the spelling correction, for sure-- I usually am a good speller, and I'm actually surprised that I've always spelled (I also pronounce it that way) it wrong all these years-- lol! (my computer didn't know it was spelled wrong, either, apparently.)

breath taking is my other choice.
My husband couldn't come up with anything. He was very impressed.
I think it's amazing.

Please take this in good humor!
I don't care for perfumes, so the first word that came to mind was "stanky"
Ugh, I'm so sorry, but I know you know how to laugh!

Petaloutha (from Greek word for butterfly). But the first part of the word 'petal' can refer to flower petals used to make perfume.
Other ideas:
Serenity
Soul
Reminisce
Ethereal

The first word I thought of was Nectar. I read this in hopes for inspiration: www.spiritanimal.info/butterfly-spirit-animal/Hoping to find any words that express the perfumes and the butterfly. The only thing I got out of that was: Touched |

Sillage (pronounced as see-yazh) is a term used to describe a scented trail left by the fragrance wearer. It comes from the French word for “wake,” as in the trail left in the sky by an airplane or on the water by a boat.

Allure
Alluring
Seduce
Seduction
Maybe even use the French version of a word? Séduire = Allure?

As always, the way you can create the look of glass with watercolor amazes me. Gorgeous!

I do not know that I would use sillage. It is too close to silage, and that is what comes to mind. |

I love "Fleeting" because the life of a butterfly and the scent of a fine perfume are both beautiful but also fleeting. The same could be said for crystal because of it fragility. Come to think of it I like "fragility" too  |
