The Confessional

Sometimes one stumbles upon something that is so perfectly judged, so condensed in its appraisal of a situation and so witty, all at the same time, that one has a belly laugh and salvages said snippet from oblivion by noting it down for posterity's sake.
This is what I'm doing right now.

"Tom Ford goes to Catholic Church for confession

Tom Ford: father, i have sinned
Father: you can speak your mind
Tom Ford: I introduced the oud trend
Father: Your sin is unforgivable."

As said by Fazalcheema on Fragrantica regarding the introduction of Lancôme's Oud Bouquet. (a rose-vanilla-saffron oud for 2014, updating the 2012 L'Autre Oud fragrance idea). He's referring of course to  M7 by Yves Saint Laurent, the first "mainstream" oud note fragrance which started it all, artistically directed by Tom Ford.
