Specific scent that is believed to emanate from the bodies of saints
The odour of sanctity, according to the Catholic Church, is commonly understood to mean a specific scent (often compared to flowers) that emanates from the bodies of saints, especially from the wounds of stigmata. These saints are called myroblytes[1][2][3] while the exudation itself is referred to as myroblysia[4] or myroblytism.
