Annoy with the smell? (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

incense

This clue is a double definition.

'annoy' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)

'the smell?' is the second definition.
(incense is a kind of smell)

'with' is the link.

(Other definitions for incense that I've seen before include "Perfume; enrage" , "Sweet-smelling spice" , "It produces a fragrant odour when burned" , "Enrage; fragrant resin" , "that may be used in service" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
