Someone asked me that question today but immediately gave an answer for what would be mine:

Procrastination. For the woman who's willing to wait... indefinitely.

Everyone else? What've you got?

By definition, wouldn't it have to be my own name? 'Cuz otherwise, it's not my signature, is it?

No.

It would be the perfume that is as much you as the loops and swirls of your signature is you. A signature is distinctive not because of the name necessarily but because of the way the name is written.

However, I am incapable of putting my signature scent in a forum because we do not have smell-o-computers, and naming the scent would be putting "the name that descibes me in one word" rather than the signature scent.

"Train Wreck"

Its repulsive to look at, dangerous to touch, and not very clean, but you have to stare.

Dan! You made me snort! My signature scent a this point in my life would be a combo of soured milk, playdough and a faint under score of poopoo diaper. Let's call it "ExhaustedMommy"

Yeah, but to sell it you'd have to call it "Mom Fahteeg" with a little "long 'o'" bar over the "o". [Wink]
Oh, and put it in a bottle that looks a little like it melted.

mackillian -- I think anyone who knows me well would probably assign me the same signature.

Pffft. I know that's not why you can't have a signature scent. [Razz]

I'd have a whole line of cologne called "Yes, Dear." There would be "Yes, Dear, I washed the dishes" which would smell like dish soap, "Yes, Dear, I mowed the lawn" which would smell like fresh cut grass (but hypo-allergenic, of course), "Yes, Dear, I changed the baby's diaper" which would smell faintly of talcum powder, etc.

"Ode Due Singapore"
For those who want to smell a little funny.
Mix suave Bing Crosby, dopey Bob Hope, and a smattering of Dorothy Lamar for a high seas/island romp and you begin to understand the totally un-subtle aroma we provide.

Of course, all three of them have been dead for some time, so the stench they are currently creating may not be altogether pleasant.
