That smell of salt in the air and the coffee

Posted by Robin on 29 August 2022 Leave a Comment

There’s one that I love: when you’re on a boat and it’s morning and you drink a hot coffee—I love that smell of salt in the air and the coffee. But I also have a memory from the farm where my grandfather grew jasmine and roses. At midday the workers came to get paid for the flowers they’d picked. It was very warm outside, and inside there was the smell of flowers, of the clay on the ground, some gasoline from the agricultural equipment. I feel that in beautiful smells, there’s always an element of darkness that can be a bit unpleasant but that drives your curiosity.

It’s happiness

Posted by Robin on 3 November 2021 Leave a Comment

I now have a farm in the south of France where we have organic roses that I use for perfumery. Happiness, for me, smells like the moment I pass the threshold. I walk into this atelier, and there’s a mix of smells — of all the different oils and absolutes. The mixture of all these smells is indescribable, but to me, it’s happiness.

— Perfumer Aurélien Guichard on the what happiness smells like. Read more in The Story Behind the Adam Driver Centaur Perfume at The Cut.
