New York scent artist
Christopher Brosius had made his name with fragrances recalling
childhood (such as Clean Baby Butt, Green Bean and Baseball Glove), but
felt it was time, according to an April report in New York magazine, to
approach the next frontier -- to make a perfume so exclusive that no one
could smell it. By Brosius' reasoning, the scent's chemicals would
provoke whatever reactions scents provoke in those exposed to it, but
the actual scent would be undetectable to the nose; hence, no one would
know why they were reacting as they were. By trial and error, he
combined jasmine, sandalwood and natural amber, and scaled them down in
power, yielding what he calls Where We Are There Is No Here. Said
Brosius, "The question, 'What perfume are you wearing?' should never
arise." [New York, 4-24-2011]
