Another day, another interview with Luca Turin and Tania Sanchez because of Perfumes the Guide. Kurt from studio360.org brought them to a nearby Duane Reed to unlock the mysteries of body spray, handiwipes, and crayons.
The tone is again playful, maybe a little ironic.
Here it is, via studio360.org
Click "play" to hear:
There are several references to popular scents and products, even Carmex (which I am not partial to), Old Spice (which personally I love) and crayolas. Also the usual pep-talk about how chemistry revolutionized the fragrance industry in the 1880s.
Please note that Luca proclaims that he likes several things that might seem like a joke when worn, but he appreciates as odors artistically. The reason why many of his choices might seem unwearable to perfume wearers.
