"Is that his aftershave?"

The main character wearing his dead muse's underwear, bathrobe, and aftershave the morning after the murder could symbolize his attempt to immerse himself in his muse's essence, as if trying to absorb or possess what he admired about him. It suggests a disturbing desire to merge with his victim, perhaps driven by a sense of loss, guilt, or a twisted form of intimacy.

Additionally, it could serve as a way for the main character to relive the intensity of the moment, experiencing a warped sense of closeness to the muse even in death. By wearing his belongings, the main character may be trying to fill the void left by the muse's absence, clinging to memories and fantasies that are now tainted by his violent actions.

Furthermore, it could reflect the main character's descent into madness or obsession, blurring the boundaries between himself and the object of his fixation. His actions may stem from a psychological need to maintain control or exert power over the muse, even in death, as he grapples with the consequences of his actions and the unraveling of his sanity.
