Bottom Quark

ZOMG Smells Color and Flavor: Six Quarks General Catalog Perfume Oil (Available)

Trivia moment: shortly after their discovery, there was a short but fierce fracas over what this quark and its partner quark would be named. We know them now as Top and Bottom, but they were nearly Truth and Beauty. We weep for this lost opportunity to make the poetry of particle physics sound properly poetic for once.

We've tried to make this quark's scent both bottom-y (not the one you sit on, that would be gross) and beautiful. Geranium, spicy ginger, vanilla custard, and a little bit of leather in just the right place.
