Fans have a lot of questions about "Bridgerton" actor Regé-Jean Page – and his co-star is willing to provide some answers.
Phoebe Dynevor, who plays Daphne Bridgerton in the hit Netflix series, revealed that viewers regularly ask her about what the 31-year-old smells like.
The first season of the period drama focused on the steamy courtship between Daphne and Simon Basset, the Duke of Hastings (Page).
"Oh my God, why have so many people asked me that?" the 25-year-old joked to Glamour on Thursday.

"He’s unscented in a good way," Dynevor added.
The chemistry between the stars has sparked rumors that the pair are dating in real life.
"I think everything you need to know is on camera," Page told "Access" earlier this month.
"That’s why we presented it so beautifully for you," he shared. "All the sparks that flew came off of the beautiful scripts that we were handed, and so I think that the sparky words of the scripted material are more than enough."
The series, based on Julia Quinn’s bestselling novels, follows families of British high society and how they’re taking on Regency London’s competitive marriage market. Along the way, a mysterious gossip columnist, known as Lady Whistledown, seems to see – and tell all. The scandalous writer is voiced by Julie Andrews.
