A world within a mini atomizer bottle. Get them at ministry of scent, scent split (USA), nose (eu), Bloom, perfumista (UK). Pick a semi-random selection using the notes function - the weirder the better! I think using your nose is good for your brain (source: me, 2024)

I started collecting perfumes on the tour for my “Aladdin” movie in 2016, my bandmate was an amateur perfumer and his passion for aromatic materials was infectious.  Studying scent unlocked an entire dimension of sensory experiences I had been ignoring.  I realized that  perfumers were trying to communicate with us, the raw materials had developed symbolic meanings over thousands of years, and could be used in combination to create very specific artworks.  I began to see perfumes as snowglobes that carry information as a landscape,  that there’s a lot of encoded information in them.  Collecting them became an adventure, walking around the city realizing every city block had stores with samples of these precious artworks.   I even started to obtain vintage bottles of perfume from  30, 50, even 80 years ago that still smelled great, and I began to understand in more depth how people used to smell and why.  I recently wrote an epic perfume adventure book that I hope to put out soon.

Nic cage acting like a broken John travolta. John travolta pretending to be Nic cage at his most batshit. A huge budget for John Woo to blow up all kinds of shit, pre-cgi. A script that defies logic. A sci-fi prison called Erewhon with mag boots. 1997 was a good year for movies.
