Joj:
 Well, I don't know if I can subscribe to this theory, but it would 
explain Hermione's choice of the word unusual as describing the 
perfume.  She would have to have smelled something different in HBP 
though, when she smelled the love potion, or she would have realized 
it was the same thing.

I would love for there to be some explination for H/G and R/Hr, other 
that that was JKR's ultimate plan, but I'm trying hard to except that 
it's just that.  I'll never enjoy R/Hr but they don't make me want to 
throw the book across the room like H/G does.  I'll settle for 
reading HBP without the urge to toss the book at every H/G passage.  
I don't hope for more than that.
