Synopsis by Cammila Collar
This comedy set in 11th century China stars Richie Ren as an aromatherapist named Kai who has just received a mission from the king to cure his daughter of her royal body odor. In need of a suitably smelly test subject in order to find the cure, he enlists the help of a pretty young fishmonger named Heung (Miriam Yeung). At first their time together is purely a business arrangement, but soon the two find themselves overtaken by the scent of love.
