The daily lemming

Posted by Robin on 24 January 2022 8 Comments

Or maybe just the daily laugh? "The Officine Universelle Buly presents its new invention: the Eau Gymnastique, a perfume for sports shoes. It has a surprising specificity. It provides shoes with a scent that everyone likes to find: the smell of newness. For both high-level athletes as for ordinary people, the stakes are high and the issue infinitely trivial: shoes equals sweating. Yet, the smelly feet induce a persistent nuisance on appearance and self-image." 500 ml for €70 at Officine Universelle Buly. Hat tip to Kevin!

      Our 18 yr old nephew was at our house for the holidays. Between his shoes and the Axe spray his presence lingered far beyond the visit?

      Agreed! There are so many things that induce a persistent nuisance these days; we need some levity!

      There are many alternatives that don’t quite run to €70 ;-)
