Thx for sharing the video. I have little of that reagent and also P4S10 and anisole if more needed.
Sulfur compounds are not always stinky. The trithioacetone has a scent of tropical fruits (if you manage to produce it pure from gem 2,2-propanedithiol). Another good scenting thiol is grapefruit mercaptan (perhaps starting from limonene -> ??? alpha terpineol ??? or via another intermediate ???).
Here they used another routes for the grapefruit:

But I not sure whether you need R or S limonene as the grapefruit thiol is only one of the isomers, but very likely R limonene (orange oil).
