Selected quotes

I wanted to become a perfumer at the age of twelve after I watched a Catherine Deneuve film with my mother. I watched the process and saw the man on screen smelling from a bottle of perfume and said to my mother, “I want to do that”. She said, “I think it is not so simple.” — quoted at HungerTV.
