Perfume Pact

Selina Ross, 25, is a gifted perfumer and the heir to the Ross family, though she keeps her identity hidden. For three years, she has worked as an assistant, creating fragrances for her best friend Jessica and helping her win consecutive Golden Bottle Awards. On the eve of registering her marriage with her fiancé Brian, Selina discovers the two of them having an affair; Brian cruelly humiliates her as "an orphan with no parents who can't even pay rent." In despair, Selina calls Alexander Black, president of Black International Perfume Group—a man she saved three years ago. Alexander has been searching for her ever since; they quickly strike a "marriage of convenience" deal. Selina treats it as a transaction, but Alexander has already developed genuine feelings. Selina enters a new talent competition under her own name, while also being forced to continue preparing Jessica's entry for the Golden Bottle finals. On the day of the finals, Selina takes the stage wearing Jessica's mask and performs her own composition, "True Self," earning the first perfect score in Golden Bottle history—then removes the mask and publicly reveals her true identity. Jessica and Brian counter‑accuse her of plagiarism, but in the face of truth and talent, the betrayers ultimately reap what they sow. Yet this alliance, born from a contract, reveals not only identity under the spotlight—but also a carefully orchestrated chess game; between genuine feelings and false pretenses, who will truly stand undefeated…?
