In Norse mythology, Ilmr is a goddess. Ilmr is attested (between Iðunn and Bil) within a list of ásynjur contained within the Prose Edda book Skáldskaparmál. No further information outside of her name is provided there.^[1] Jacob Grimm points out that while the goddess name Ilmr is feminine, the masculine word ilmr means "pleasant scent" (suavis odor).^[2]
