Perhpas perfume especially has an intrinsic marketing value, being a product to be shared rather than an individual creation like a painting.Perfumeshrinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06222733129203280662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3792393342962796253.post-64081339547557864922008-01-10T08:53:00.000+00:002008-01-10T08:53:00.000+00:00This has been fascinating, Helg.

It's not necessarily his fault if the media tend to shine the light on an individual rather than a cohort of equally talented individuals.<BR/><BR/>Burr writes a lot about how JCE's work is maximalist minimalism - a LOT of work goes in, Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
