Whether it was her cloying claustrophobia or some other anxiety, fear had been her constant companion.

Above them a dark draft of air stirs the sweetheart trees, making them sigh and give off a perfume that's stronger than the lupin—cloying, almost sickly.
Над ними тёмный поток воздуха шевелит кроны деревьев «нежное сердце», заставляя их вздыхать и выделять аромат более сильный, чем запах люпинов, окутывающий, прямо‑таки облепляющий.

I felt myself all plastered over by her cloying smile—the plaster that would cover the wounds about to be inflicted by the letter trembling in my hands.
Я чувствую: весь облеплен ее улыбкой – это пластырь на те раны, какими сейчас покроет меня это дрожащее в моих руках письмо.

But there was a fragrance, the almost overpowering, cloying fragrance of all those little blossoms with their monkey faces.
Только со странной силой охватывает, обволакивает благоухание несчетных лиловых цветов, напоминающих львиный зев.
