How to Get Perfumer's Talisman in Elden Ring

Elden Ring's Shadow of the Erdtree DLC includes an entirely new weapon type: Perfume Bottles. Not to be confused with this crafting item of the same name, it reflects a whole different line of melee weapons with elemental properties.

DLC has actually made relevant an item that is taken from the base game itself: the Perfumer's Talisman. This talisman enhances all effects of various perfumes and hence is highly valuable when combined with Perfume Bottles. Be it solo play or as part of any cooperative play, this can turn out quite useful, regardless of whether you own the DLC or not. For those who want to min-max their gameplay, this guide will show the location of the talisman.

Location of the Perfumer's Talisman in Elden Ring

Although getting the Perfumer's Talisman is not that challenging, it still requires searching to a certain extent. Contrary to most of the other precious goods in Elden Ring, this talisman does not require killing some hard boss. It is placed in one of the many hidden spots within the very familiar landscape of Lands Between.

One will need to travel to the location of the Perfumer's Ruins, located northwest from the Abandoned Coffin Site of Grace in Altus Plateau. Doing this area requires players to either take the Grand Lift of Dectus or go through the Ruin-Strewn Precipice.

Once at the Perfumer's Ruins, players should head into the westernmost building. Here, smashing wood planks will expose a secret passage. Going through this secret path will lead to a chest containing the long-awaited Perfumer's Talisman.

Effects of the Perfumer's Talisman in Elden Ring

This is a talisman from which dangle perfume flasks of elegance and thus enhance the strength of every perfume-based effect. The perfumes inside these flasks are cultivated in secretive gardens by mysterious perfumers and hence carry truly exceptional power.

From a combat role with Perfume Bottles to consumable perfumes, the Perfumer's Talisman is essential. It increases the overall damage done by both Perfume Bottles and Consumable Perfumes, therefore making the item very desirable for those inclined towards fragrance-based attacks. Other than that, it will enhance Perfumer's Bolt, the ranged attack which uses perfume-based magic.

The Perfumer's Talisman is a required component for those players running the Perfume Bottle build, even the quite powerful Rolling Sparks Lightning Perfume Bottle. This talisman will increase the damage of the Perfume Bottles substantially so that it does even more damage in combat. The Perfumer's Talisman will just increase the destructive potential of the perfume if equipped.
