Talc, maybe, with guy going in for women's scent in ball (8)
I believe the answer is:
pomander
'scent in ball' is the definition.
(ball containing aromatic substances)
'talc maybe with guy going in for women's' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'with' could be 'and' and 'and' is found within the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
(Other definitions for pomander that I've seen before include "Aromatic substances in an orange, carried as a scent" , "it should clear the air" , "protection against infection" , "spicy old bag" , "Perfume container" .)
