History[]
Season 1[]
In "Princess Fragrance", Soraya was sent by the kingdom of Achu to chaperone Prince Ali on a trip to Paris, where he was hosting a toy fundraiser for the sick children at a hospital. She and his Royal Highness go to Le Grand Paris, where they are greeted by Mayor André Bourgeois. He explains to Prince Ali that he has organized a lavish fireworks display on the Seine in front of the hotel, for his presence here in Paris, that it'll be launched from a boat. Soraya tells him that they'll have to see if it fits with Prince Ali's busy schedule, making his Royal Highness sad.
She continued to watch as André introduce his Royal Highness to his daughter Chloé Bourgeois. Prince Ali then started to get interviewed by Nadja Chamack when soon they were forced to stop thanks to a disgusting smell appearing out of nowhere. Soraya and everyone, turn their backs to Chloé, who was the one carrying the smell. They all then hear a blast.
They turn and see the mind-controlled paparazzi bowing down for the titular villain. She then introduces herself and says that Prince Ali will belong to her once she sprays him from her perfume gun. Out of nowhere, a mysterious person activated a button from a synthesizer to launch the confetti to prevent the villain from shooting his Royal Highness. Soraya then takes Prince Ali and they both escaped through the stairwell with André and Chloé.
They all hide inside a hotel room, in which André claims that they'll be safe from her by the reinforced door. Soraya wonders how anyone is supposed to stick a schedule with all this chaos. She and Prince Ali then move away from Chloé because of her smell. To her annoyance, Chloé soon notices that the villain had started spraying her perfume under the doorway. Everyone then back away from the door and to a corner in the room as the perfume got closer.
Luckily, the mysterious person from earlier vacuums the spray before it brainwashes anyone. They all then manage to escape to the stairwell again. However, the villain still ends up brainwashing André with her perfume. The three survivors go back to where they were earlier, with Chloé telling Armand to shut the door on the brainwashed André. Despite Soraya trying to get her to have mercy on her father, but Chloé didn't care. The villain suddenly arrives by elevator and was soon confronted by Cat Noir.
After a brief fight between the hero and the villain, Cat Noir tried to evacuate everyone by sliding down his staff outside the hotel. Soraya objects to this as it is too dangerous for Prince Ali. But he then gives the three civilians mixing bowls to protect their heads. After everyone evacuated, they got inside Soraya's car and drove away. After opening the windows to get rid of the smell from Chloé, Soraya tried to keep up his Royal Highness' very strict schedule and attempts to drive them to the hospital, with Cat Noir arguing with the idea. The villain then arrives on top of the car roof and, before Soraya can close all the windows, she sprays everyone in the car.
Now a brainwashed Soraya then goes to the Pont des Arts with the villain and her other victims. Her enthraller tries to put a padlock of her and Prince Ali's love on the bridge, but it was knocked into the water by Ladybug with her yo-yo. Soraya and her other victims tried to attack the heroine and take the Ladybug Miraculous from her after the perfume spray failed.
A fight then breaks out, with Soraya being knocked down to the floor with André by Ladybug, who uses her yo-yo to do so. Later, after the villain was defeated and Ladybug does her Miraculous Ladybug, Soraya was freed from being brainwashed. She was still at the Pont des Arts when this happened and started complaining about how everything was now a disaster since they were so off schedule. Soraya then wondered where his Royal Highness was before wondering where she was.
