Can you make a perfume with the smell of someone you love?
Surprisingly yes.
A small transalpine company called Kalain has managed to develop a system to capture someone’s smell and turn it into a real perfume.
The perfume is designed to reproduce the aura of a loved one (one’s partner for example) thanks to the great evocative power of smell.
It is produced by extracting, from the unwashed clothes of the person in question, a mix of molecules which are then mixed with alcohol, to obtain the real perfume.
The company offers two types of bottles: one for happy events, the other for funerals. In both cases the price is considerable: 560 euros for each bottle.
