Great Chinese-drama that causes me to anxiously chasing for the upcoming episodes to release...
This is indeed a very nice C-drama with suspense story plot that makes each episodes a mystery to watch. Everytime I thought the story is leading towards an outcome I predict, it ends up with a surprise tweak with the storyline and makes me to be anxiously wanting to watch the next episode like... right now! However, we have to follow the release time of the studio that broadcast this drama that we follow.I like the overall story flow as it managed to show the details of the storyline for me. In each of the scenes, I find the lighting and props for this C-drama capture are well planned, and the acting expression of the actors and actresses are all very well executed. Hence, the cast of this C-drama indeed have shown their great acting skills to my level of liking. Best part for this C-drama is that at the ending of each episodes, it also comes with Bonus Footage that became the filler for viewers to better understand the storyline. I kind of like how the Director came out with this idea...
I highly recommends all to watch this C-drama, if you have not done so. It's indeed awesome and entertaining to watch with family together. Once you start watching it, you'll be anxiously watching until the last episode and only in the final episode, it will reveal the true mystery. I will classify this C-drama as semi happy ending with a nice closing, which many new recent drama failed to achieve this classification and left the viewers with cliff-hanging feeling.
P/S: The opening OST is very nice to listen as it comes with nice melody and the singer vocal is great too. Kudos to the singer for this opening OST.

Scent of TimeSpoiler alert❌
At first I didn’t really know that she was dreaming I just thought she was time travelling but When I was on episode 17/18 I got an spoiler saying that she is just on her dream none of these things are real.. So I thought I might not understood the ending & there will be a lot of question on my mind but there wasn’t... They explain the whole thing in the last episode she was just traumatized.... ..
Btw there was One thing that bother me a lot
I was so confused about the male lead but at the end I realized that each of them was a male lead of her life (dream) as she always wanted everyone to love her....... So in her dream everyone loved her.....
But as she couldn’t trust anyone so she created an another character & he was the only one who earned her trust & was there for her no matter what happened or what she did ......
Most recommended drama
best drama everrrr for me
Hua Qian character touched me soo much as sometime I don't really want to wake up from my dream as reality hurts me even if I wake up I try to sleep again so that I can be in that dream again & be happy as I was there.........
The female character is just ❤️ would love watch her future work ✨

A superb drama, fabulously interpreted and masterfully produced
This is a super addictive series with great actorsPLOT: The FL forced the ML2 into a marriage, even she knows he loves the FL. 2 years later, she lost everything: divorce, father beheaded, family ruined, herself on the run and beaten in court... She wakes up 2 years earlier, on her wedding night, and decides to "put everything back in order", but it turns out to be more difficult than expected ;)
What I liked:
+ the CL, adorable, with Zhou Ye & Wang Xing Yue (no kiss, but an intense chemistry)
+ The FL is intelligent, determined.
+ The story is well constructed, credible, respecting the statutes, rules & protocols of his time.
+ The production is effective, without length, giving clues little by little, and maintaining the suspense skillfully.
+ The OSTs are well suited to the emotions of the different scenes.
+ Even the ending is satisfying, credible, logical.
What I liked less:
# The ML2 and FL2 display a poker face in the majority of scenes. FL2 is supposed to be very beautiful (so that all the men who meet her will fall for her) but I find her much less pretty than most of the servants in this series...
=> a superb drama, fabulously interpreted and masterfully produced. Kudos to the whole Team ☆✲ﾟ｡(((´♡‿♡`+)))｡ﾟ✲☆

Série super addictive et avec de grands acteurs
PLOT: La FL a forcé le ML2 dans 1 mariage, sachant qu'il aime la FL. 2 ans + tard, elle a tout perdu : divorce, père décapité, famille ruinée, elle-même en fuite et battue au tribunal ... Elle se réveille 2 ans + tôt, le soir de ses noces, et décide de "tout remettre en ordre", mais cela s'avère + difficile que prévu ;)
What I liked :
+ le CL, adorable, avec Zhou Ye & Wang Xing Yue
+ La FL est intelligente, déterminée.
+ La story est bien construite, crédible, respectant les statuts, les règles & protocoles de l'époque.
+ La réalisation est efficace, sans longueur, donnant des indices peu à peu, et maintenant le suspense habilement.
+ Les OST sont bien adaptées aux émotions des différentes scènes.
+ Même la fin est satisfaisante, crédible, logique.
What I liked less :
# Le ML2 et la FL2 affichent une poker-face dans la majorité des scènes. La FL2 est sensée être très belle (pour que tous les hommes qui la croisent soient en admiration) mais je la trouve beaucoup moins jolie que la plupart des servantes de cette série.
=> un superbe drama, fabuleusement interprété et magistralement réalisé. Kudos à toute la Team ☆✲ﾟ｡(((´♡‿♡`+)))｡ﾟ✲☆

This show is a love.
If you crave for a slow burning romance than this series a must watch for you.I dont like cringe romance in chinese dramas which is very common.
This show is something I have seen for the first time in chinese drama.
Female lead has potrayed her character with so much versatility. I just loved her in this show.
Story is complex but very engaging to make us hold on to it till the very end.
I liked the romance arc between female lead , her guard and the lord.
Almost every character in this show has shown as grey and which is relatable to our real life. Thats why I am loving this show very much.

Unlocking the Scented Secrets
"Scent of Time" is an exceptionally progressive TV show that defies the typical episodic format. It goes beyond the usual dynamic of two main characters weaving in and out of the storyline. In this series, every character, no matter how small their role, plays a significant part in the lead character's journey. It's a breath of fresh air in the world of television dramas, and it defies the expectations set by its official description.The official synopsis might lead you down the wrong path, so don't let it fool you. It suggests the story is about a hardworking young woman who wakes up in a novel she was reading all night. That's far from the truth. "Scent of Time" revolves around Hua Qian, a reckless and spoiled young woman who's made serious mistakes in her life, ultimately leading to her betrayal and death by those she trusted. In her dying moments, she's granted a unique opportunity – to relive the final part of her life, starting from her marriage day.
Hua Qian undergoes a profound transformation, determined to change people's perceptions of her to avoid repeating her past mistakes and facing a tragic end once more. The series delves into her choices as she strives to not only stay alive but also find happiness. It's a deliberately slow-paced drama, taking great care with the intricacies of each sequence.
As of my current viewing at episode twelve, the main male characters remain a mystery to me. Rest assured, I'll provide a more comprehensive review once I've seen the entire series. I strongly encourage you to give it a chance. "Scent of Time" is exceptionally well-executed, with the cast delivering remarkable performances. I've witnessed the talents of the lead actresses, Zhou Ye (as Hua Qian) and Zhao Qing (as Mu Yao), in their previous work, and they continue to impress with their portrayals.
The music, though somewhat melancholic, effectively conveys the emotions of Hua Qian in beautifully somber notes. The series is meticulously filmed, emphasizing natural lighting to create a sense of realism while incorporating bursts of color and vibrancy to mirror the characters' emotional fluctuations.
~ About the Scent Note ~
As I journey through 'Scent of Time' to its twelfth episode, the enigmatic scent, a persistent presence throughout the series, remains shrouded in mystery. Hua Qian, our determined protagonist, repeatedly encounters a fragrance that eludes recognition, and her instinctual dismissal of it only deepens the intrigue. It's evident that this mysterious scent is poised to unveil a pivotal facet of the plot in the upcoming episodes.
Hua Qian possesses a remarkable olfactory gift, her scent recognition abilities and sensitivity to notes extending far beyond the ordinary. The deliberate mention of scents in every episode serves as a sensory reminder, taking us on a journey through the intricacies of emotion, a dimension that transcends the boundaries of time itself.
The fragrance that Hua Qian perceives, yet cannot place, acts as a tantalizing thread woven into the narrative's fabric, an element that teases a revelation yet to come. As the drama unfolds, one can't help but wonder what secrets this enigmatic scent may hold, and how it ties into the broader story.
This sensory journey into 'Scent of Time' adds a layer of intrigue and depth to the storytelling, inviting us to explore the connections between scents and emotions, and how they may ultimately shape the course of the narrative. I eagerly await the moments when these aromatic hints finally unravel their significance in the upcoming episodes.
Prepare for an emotional and evocative journey through the ups and downs. Don't miss out on this drama because of the official synopsis.

after all, to err is human.
Definitely a breath of fresh air in a very saturated Cdramas world. Also one of the best I've watched in a long time.It's not very often for cdramas (and asian dramas in general, really) to capture the bad side of humanity and presented it as redeemable. Many dramas tend to have characters in opposite extremes of evil vs good spectrum with no place anywhere in between. This drama does not shy away from that. The main character made a mistake, realized it too late, and painstakingly tried to correct her mistakes when she got the chance. The story is very well paced with clear plot. None of the characters are 2 dimensional. Overall very engaging to watch till the end.

Excellent
An engrossing, tumultuous love triangle with multi-dimensional plot and characters. I loved it, especially the gorgeous lead actress who gave a Tour De Force performance that is worthy of all C-Drama awards.......................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

Um doramão de partir qualquer coração, recomendo.
Ainda estou surpresa com o tempo que levei para finalizar este drama, já tem bastante tempo que não "devoro" uma história como essa. Estou com os sentimentos a flor da pele. Um misto de alegria com um pouquinho de tristeza, mas com a certeza que foi um tempo bem gasto e que voltarei a assistir.Não vou contar sobre a história, porque o interessante é ir desvendando as coisas, mas tenho que dizer, poucas histórias retratam tão humanamente seus personagens, não existe aquele personagem vilão ou herói, todos possuem defeitos e cometem injustiça para conseguir algo ou proteger seu ente querido, há uma pitada de egoísmo em cada personagem, mas há também aquela característica do ser humano de se arrepender e tentar fazer o melhor.
"O certo e o errado depende da perspectiva de quem vê, assim como o bem e o mal." - Mu Yao.
Gosto de prestar bastante atenção nos diálogos dos personagens e em Scent of Time os diálogos são tão bem construídos o enredo perfeitinho, mas um final tão "blah!", um típico final de um drama excelente, daquela forma que os roteiristas estão acostumados. O dorama conta com uma excelente ost, mas sou suspeita para falar, porque amo músicas do gênero, então tudo é bom. "Que lindeza a fotografia, que tratamento de cores!", as cores quentes do salão da mãe do Xi Wu são perfeitas. Os desenhos da abertura e do fechamento também são um charme a parte.
A pontuação acima já diz tudo, eu simplesmente amei o que assisti e só não dei 10 pelo pouco tempo que nosso casal passou junto. Sim eu queria mais tempo de tela com os dois; a química é pesada. Vou parar por aqui para não passar spolier.

Chorei copiosamente neste aqui...
Estava navegando no streaming Max (anteriormente HBOMax) e encontrei por acaso este drama no catálogo. Comecei a assistir o primeiro episódio despretensiosamente e descobri que o ator Wang Xing Yue, o Duque Su de The Double, estava no elenco. Isso automaticamente me fez querer assistir, mas foi o intrigante enredo que me fez permanecer assistindo.Uma jovem em plena perseguição é capturada, testemunha a morte de seus parentes e logo em seguida também é assassinada. Tudo isso em retaliação as armações realizadas por ela e sua família para obter um casamento vantajoso. Após morrer "naquela vida", ela volta no tempo para a noite de seu casamento e tem a oportunidade de reparar os danos causados e salvar a si e sua família.
A protagonista, que em sua "vida passada" foi a "vilã", agora trabalha para ser uma coadjuvante na vida daqueles que outrora ela tinha sido a antagonista. O foco do drama não é o romance, mas a redenção da protagonista e de sua família. Contudo, o enredo também conta com a história do amor proibido entre os protagonistas e de como esses desafortunados sofrem (e fazem a gente sofrer junto), mas para mim o romance foi totalmente colateral a trama principal, que era busca pela redenção da Hua Qian.
Ri e chorei com a Hua Qian, mas o último episódio me fez chorar copiosamente. Fiquei muito apegada a protagonista. O desejo dela se tornar uma pessoa melhor e conduzir sua família para o bom caminho, dar um "final feliz" para todos a sua volta, mesmo que o dela não fosse tão feliz, fez dela uma personagem realmente digna de ser lembrada (e a atriz entregou uma excelente performance).
Sem entrar em muitos spoilers, para não estragar a experiência de quem for assistir, gostaria de deixar registrado que tudo relacionado a personagem Hua Rong Zhou me deixou profundamente emocionada. Toda a metáfora por trás da construção daquela personagem me fez continuar chorando depois que tudo terminou. Não tenho palavras para dizer o quanto esse drama foi lindo!
Scent of Time entra para minha lista de favoritos da vida!
Obs.:Tirando a questão do enredo e do drama em sim, gostaria de fazer um breve comentário sobre a legenda no streaming Max. Fiquei bastante surpresa porque em muitos trechos a legenda parece ter sido tirada diretamente do Google tradutor. Expressões "traduzidas" ao pé dá letra sem uma relação com o contexto, inúmeras falhas nas marcações de gênero das personagens etc. Enfim, fiquei surpresa pois não esperava isso de um streaming que supostamente tem legenda profissional.
