"Excentrique Moi" by Art de Parfum I'm not eccentric enough to want to smell like cabbage but I'm so eccentric that I can photograph the perfume in a cabbage! 'Excentrique Moi' smells like plum wine, hot tea with pepper and cloves, and at the end like burnt wooden branches. Streaks of smoke flow all over the room, and the sharpness of the spices tickles my nose, making me sneeze. It's a good fragrance for bad weather and contrasting moods.

We may not know this but a piece of clothing can have a far deeper meaning than just a cover for our skin and to protect our modesty. A symbol of longevity and good fortune, prosperity and growth, the traditional Japanese kimono offers more to the wearer than simply cloth on their back. It’s grounding, individualistic and a reminder of where we came from and who we hope to be.
