Thread: Now THIS is an experimental fragrance!

I'm a big fan of fragrances from boutique perfumer SMELL BENT out of Los Angeles. So, when they offered a scent called Artist's Studio, I was intrigued. Then I read the fragrance notes...

notes:wet plaster, turpentine soaked rags, stretched canvas, a roll of brushes and drying paint

What? But I bought it because, if it stank, at least it's a collectable to me because I have so many of their fragrances. So, bottom line, it smells exactly like it is described to a T. Like walking into a painter's studio. It's uncanny, and most surprising, it smells fantastic! Now, unless you can throw out all your current references of what a perfume can smell like, you might hate it. But I love the out-of-the-box thinking and I wear this stuff all the time.

Makes perfect sense, in some ways, an EDT like this could be the perfect, final touch of authenticity to the dude who wanted to come across as the distant, deeply troubled and introspective artist.....:-)

Could be a babe magnet...a budding Monet or Renoir...A Jug of Wine, A Loaf of Bread - and Thou....

Totally agree! It's like the dude that works at Applebee's can spritz this on and suddenly be a tortured creative genius. Ha ha! All fragrance is kind of about this idea of presenting a persona and this one is very specific. I love it.
