For me showering means standing in a windowless room staring at a blank wall for 20 minutes (I get lost in my thoughts). Also there are several steps and I have to think about each of them.
This means that I only end up showering when my fear of coming across as dirty becomes bigger than the dread of being bored.
What do you do?

I've got a waterproof phone, so I watch videos. The only downside is sometimes it takes a bit to find one I'm interested in.

I don't really do scents, but if you find one you like and get products you enjoy the scent of, that could add a bit of stimulation, too.
