To tell the truth, we are no longer surprised by the nonsense and weird operations of the world's richest man Musk.
So when he called himself a "perfume salesman" on Twitter some time ago and started selling a perfume produced by his company that smelled like burnt hair, no one thought that he might be really crazy.
"Burnt Hair" perfume
According to the official statement, this perfume can bring about "disgusting desire" while ensuring that the user will attract attention in the crowd after spraying it.
Musk even described it as an unheard of smell, which further aroused the curiosity of onlookers:
"Burned hair = the smell of burnt men."
A single bottle of perfume priced at US$100 sold 10,000 bottles in just a few hours, earning Musk US$1 million. Fortunately, the sales volume is good, otherwise the richest man would have "no money" to buy Twitter.
The richest man is in trouble:
"Please buy my perfume, so that I can have money to buy Twitter."
Friends who like to study perfumes may have this experience, that is, foreigners' olfactory aesthetics are very heavy. I especially like to restore body odor with a strong sense of animality and associate it with sex.
According to legend, in ancient Europe, lovers would place peeled apples under their armpits until they were soaked in sweat before giving them to their lovers to smell. This kind of strange-smelling apple is called "love apple".

The obsession with body odor in the Western world has also given rise to a variety of "heavy hunting of strange fragrances". Today we are going to take a plate of the underworld smell that opens your nose and smells so bad as to yue🤮
Don't you want to go to work?
Do you hate your coworkers?
Did your boss deduct your salary again?
Do you feel that the company has treated you badly?
Can’t stand this terrible workplace?
The following perfumes that "will get you fired" are here for you.

1, Orto Parisi Stercus dirt
Attribute: Neutral fragrance
Fragrance note: Floral woody
Year of creation: 2014
Orto Parisi is the perfumer Alessandro An Italian niche fragrance brand created by Gualtieri in 2014. The perfumer's more famous work is Nasomatto, which is known as "rebellious" in the industry.
Just as Nasomatto means "crazy nose" in Italian, Gualtieri's fragrance style has always been extremely experimental, always wanting to create something shocking to challenge the limits of human smell.

For example, the "Stercus - Dirt" we are going to talk about today.
is a perfume that combines almost all the primitive and barbaric genetic factors in Gualtieri's works. Translating it as "dirt" is really suspected of beautifying it. Its original meaning in Latin is actually "feces", which can also be extended to the human organ "G-gate".
The smell of freshly cooked food is enough to send people away. The air is filled with the smell of compost, large animal excrement, and oily sweat in a crowded subway. The smell is as strong as 50 times enhanced indole (one of the main components of feces odor). It feels like you are in a dirty, humid, and rotten place.

However, this weird and unpleasant chapter will end soon. After the smell of skatole and rushes away, there is a strong invasion of musk, and an animal sense begins to grow wildly.
didn't show the slightest desire to resist but welcomed her. Every breath she took felt like she was tightly surrounded by a group of Las Vegas macho men, with a solid and ferocious sensuality.
In the second half, the carnival party has quietly ended. The dark woody smell with a heavy smoky feeling has replaced the restless animal feeling. A slightly bitter burnt aroma is stained with black tobacco, forming a low and sticky texture like a dark cloud. The previously absurd moment gradually falls asleep.
This fragrance falls into the category that sounds scary but is actually not unacceptable. As long as you survive the first 15 minutes of unpleasant smell, the woody smell in the back is actually very calm and charming.
Moreover, its diffusion degree is relatively low, and it is basically not disturbing when worn on the body. It can be used as a pseudo deodorant (body odor).

2, Pryn Parfum Aksum Aksum
Attributes: Neutral fragrance
Fragrance notes: Oriental
Top notes: goat hair, agarwood , saffron , helichrysum ,
asphalt notes, galbanum, jasmine, licorice
middle notes: beeswax , tuberose , myrrh, frankincense , red myrrh,
cumin, Taif rose, turmeric
base notes: benzoin, Himalayan nard, woody tone
year of creation: 2017
As we all know, animal 💩 is also divided into "dry" and "wet".
If the "Stercus - Dirt" mentioned above smells wet, then the "Aksum - Aksum" produced by the Thai high-end perfume brand Pryn Parfum is closer to a rough and dry state.
Image source: pinterest
When I smelled it for the first time, it really hit my head. The overwhelming woody spice mixed with the rich aroma of goat, the smell of urine and the smell of snail powder sour bamboo shoots violently attacks the sense of smell. The asphalt smell of ink is also faintly revealed in the hard-core animal scent, just like a truck transporting mutton that just passed by and brought up a burst of dust.
The woody taste becomes heavier as it goes on, accompanied by a salty and sour fermented texture rising from the bottom.
Slightly smoked amber, red myrrh, ebony and other hot and dry medicinal flavors then took over, as if you were in an open-air market in an equatorial country, filled with complex aromas of body odor, ingredients and spices.
Image source: pinterest
After a few hours, the gradually prominent floral fragrance softened the original animal incense atmosphere, leaving only a deep and mellow ebony mist.
Looking back on the entire fragrance journey, from primitive wildness to exotic customs to dark psychedelia, it is like walking into Axum, an ancient city that was once prosperous, and deeply shrouded in the mystery of Western culture.
Generally speaking, although the strong animal feel of "Aksum - Aksum" cannot please the nose, it may not be appropriate to label it "curious" because it is not smelly enough.

3, Nishane Afrika Olifant African Elephant
Attributes: Neutral fragrance
Fragrance notes: Oriental
Top notes: Myrrh, Ambergris , Frankincense, Labdanum
Middle notes: Castores , Civet, Leather, Agarwood
Base notes: civet, musk
Year of creation: 2015
This work from Istanbul niche fragrance brand Nishane has always been talked about by fragrance lovers for its reputation as "stinky".
Just like its name "Afrika Olifant - African Elephant", it truly restores the smell of a safari park large herbivore area -
you can smell the smell of sour cake as soon as you put it on the skin.
Image source: pinterest
Fortunately, such an aggressive animal feeling does not last long, and is followed by a powdery feeling wrapped in faint smoke. The smell is slightly sweet but not too warm, showing a natural roughness. The cool botanical notes of myrrh, frankincense, and patchouli linger in the air, and the unpleasant smell of the elephant habitat has disappeared.
Castoreum, civet and musk basically exist as dark lines in the middle and base notes. The combination of suede and oud clearly has the upper hand, and bursts out with a more wild and vibrant original vitality against the animal base.
Image source: pinterest
"Afrika Olifant - African Elephant" is an excellent leather and ebony work. The animal feeling is present but not the protagonist, so despite the 💩 top notes, it can still be worn.
After experiencing it, you may think that the name "African elephant" is a bit misnamed. At best, it is a group of old wildebeests with a docile personality.
It is worth mentioning that this perfume lasts for a very long time. The top notes last at least 5 hours, the middle notes last about a day, and the rest are all base notes. Some say you can still smell it after 3 days.

4, Dusita Oud Infini Infini agarwood
Attributes: Neutral fragrance
Fragrance notes: Oriental woody notes
Top notes: Laotian oud, orange blossom , May rose
Middle notes: benzoin, sandalwood
Base notes: vanilla, musk, civet
Year of creation: 2015
With the gimmick of "chicken manure scented perfume", "Oud Infini - "Infinite Agarwood" This perfume has always been the most outstanding work of the French salon fragrance Dusita.
According to the official description, this is "a gorgeous and irresistible oud perfume with rich, rare and uplifting notes." But in fact, the smell is not that pleasant and layered. It basically feels like "a rose in a chicken 💩".
Image source: pinterest
In addition to the animalistic sensation, some netizens also reported that "the smell of original underwear lingers for 3 hours." In short, it is a very artistic fragrance.
The smell of a chicken coop that hasn't been cleaned for a long time immediately hits the nasal cavity. The old and slightly drunken fermentation smell unique to natural Laos agarwood, the strong animal smell contributed by civet scent, and the indole molecules of white flowers all create an unacceptable fecal odor atmosphere, which is especially fierce when smelled at a close distance. And the aftertaste of the chicken smell is still there after more than 10 hours, which is amazing.
But if you smell it from a distance, the power of 💩 is not that strong. The fragrance and smell reach a very strange balance, plus a hint of rubber smell, the more you smell it, the more addictive it becomes.
Image source: pinterest
Rose, orange blossom, and benzoin rose slowly. The mellow and warm balsam suppressed the sour and fishy smell before. The milkiness and sweetness brought by vanilla and sandalwood harmoniously connected it with the animal fragrance and agarwood, creating a silky texture like satin.
If you can survive the torture of the top notes, you should be enjoying it very much at this moment, such a beautiful and untamable ebony rose.

5, Zoologist Perfumes Hryax Hyrax
Attributes: Neutral fragrance
Fragrance notes: Spicy woody notes
Top notes: Resin, pink pepper, saffron, rose
Middle notes: Hyacinth , Whiskey , African stone*
Base notes: patchouli , benzoin, sandalwood , amber, civet, castoreum
Year of creation: 2018
* African stone is a by-product of hyrax and will not harm animals.
After trying "Hyrax - African Hyrax", you will find that the first few perfumes that advertise "💩 scent" are obviously too light.
Don't be fooled by the cute and round appearance of Bunny . Its combat power is actually very amazing. When faced with danger, one stinky fart is enough to repel any predator.
Image source: pinterest
Canadian niche perfume Zoologist is characterized by restoring the smell of various animals. This work inspired by the smell of "Hyrax G Prostate" can be said to be very sincere🤮
It smells like a cat litter box that has not been cleaned for a long time and has been over-fermented plus the cracked and rotten boots that have been stepped on💩. The salty, urinary and fishy smell is intertwined.
Image source: pinterest
The feeling of exploding a manure pit released by the top note is mainly due to "Hyraceum - African stone", which is a fossil formed by the excretion crystals of hyrax over hundreds of years. Even though there is an undercurrent of floral fragrance of pepper, hyacinth, crocus and rose, it is easily ignored under the strong suppression of the old original stone.
Such a pungent opening outlines a morning scene on the African grassland for us. When the first ray of sunlight passes over the boulder mountains, a joyful hyrax covered in golden fur is flying towards you, rolling up dust.
"Hyraceum - Hyrax African Stone"

After half an hour, the dirty feeling brought by the Hyrax African Stone gradually weakened, but castoreum and civet still provided a strong animal scent. The hyrax gradually disappeared, and was replaced by a tough guy wearing leather clothes and riding a motorcycle.
Amber, sandalwood, benzoin and patchouli tried to sprout from the bottom, but they still could not dispel the too strong male hormones in the air. There was a suffocating feeling like the whole face was pressed between the crotch of the wolf warriors.
In any case, the message conveyed by this incense is too strong and beyond the control of ordinary humans.

6, Serge Lutens Muscs Koublai Khan
Kublai Khan
Attributes: Neutral fragrance
Fragrance notes: Oriental
Odor ingredients: Civet, musk, ambrette , amber,
Labdanum, rose, caraway, patchouli, vanilla
Year of creation: 1998
Serge Lutens This one is based on "Muscs Koublai Khan - "Kublai Khan" is the inspiration for the creation. After hearing it, you can't help but want to sing "Horse Rod".
The domineering power of the Mongolian king was not felt. The smelly animal scent was rather like a dark-skinned, tough, strong and hairy prairie wild man.
Image source: pinterest
Sunflower seeds, civet, and caraway form the base of this perfume, plus a bunch of spicy ingredients such as amber, musk, and cumin. It is wet, salty, and coquettish, and the original animal feeling is ready to come out. It is like being held in a man's arms full of body odor. In the vast world, only two people are sweating and entangled in life and death.
Foreigners with heavy body odor seem to be particularly fond of this type of fragrance, so there are such wonderful comments on the Internet:
"People who cannot understand this bottle of perfume must have a mediocre life."
Image source: pinterest
It starts with a warm and dry spicy powder. At this time, the overpowering animal glandular smell is still hidden under the fragrance of flowers and round fat.
Naihe couldn't enjoy it for long, cumin and spices came in force. Civet and musk with a sense of animal filth are becoming more prominent, combined with the medicinal feeling of patchouli, making you feel dizzy and hot, and a simple and crude desire to conquer is ready to go.
Compared with "Hyrax - African Hyrax", which also takes the heavy taste route, "Muscs Koublai Khan - Kublai Khan" has rich layers, and the changes and rhythms are more distinct. For us Asians, it is understandable that we cannot appreciate
.
But if I try it again when I am tipsy, I wonder if I will think of something shameful and crazy.

7, Etat Libre d'Orange Secretions
Magnifiques Passionate Jet
Attributes: Neutral fragrance
Fragrance notes: Woody notes
Odor ingredients: seaweed, milk, iodine, coconut,
iris, red myrrh, sandalwood
Year of creation: 2006
Weird, avant-garde, erotic, curious, "Etat Libre d'Orange - "Liberate Orange County" has always been a rebellious representative in the perfume industry. It enjoys challenging the scale of smell and never compromises with universal aesthetics.
Perhaps it is because of the founder's obsession with erotic literature that the name of every work he creates can't help but make people think about it and make their mouths dry.
Such as this "Secretions Magnifiques - Passionate Jet".
The official description of "as real as blood, sweat, semen, and saliva" and the smell ingredients such as "iodine + milk + seaweed" have made this perfume that simulates "male body fluids" receive negative reviews, and has long dominated the No. 1 "Fantasy Fragrance" category.
Image source: pinterest
The most criticized thing about it is the unrestrained salty smell of spoiled milk and the sharp metallic bloody smell. As soon as you smell it, you want to wash it off immediately, because if you smell it for a second longer, you will spit it out. And even after washing it, there still seems to be residue in the nose. Every time I think about it, I will feel nauseated .
Because of this, few people have smelled its base note. If you can hold on for a while, the floral and sandalwood scent with a powdery feel can dispel all the previous discomfort.
But just like "Hyrax", the smell of "Secretions Magnifiques" is too shocking and it is not a perfume that can be worn on the body.
If you smell it yourself, you will lose your beautiful yearning for x life.
If others hear it, your passion may no longer have anywhere to vent.

There are about 400 different odor receptors in the human nose. How these receptors recognize odor molecules is still an unsolved mystery.
Given the huge differences between individuals, each of us has a different activation pattern of olfactory receptors, so the ability to perceive smells is as varied as randomly playing chords on a piano.
This is why some people find the same perfume smells good, while others find it unpleasant; some people describe it as a sinister and dark Chinese medicine shop, and some people say it's like having fun in a septic tank.
Nowadays, it seems that the essence of perfume may not only satisfy the "good smell". If we continue to explore from the underlying need of "please the nose", we can regard it as an avant-garde and "conceptual" olfactory art.
The sense of story of "smell" itself also gives more possibilities in sensory experience, transporting people's thoughts to unexpected time and space.
From this perspective, it can be regarded as an alternative feast and explosion of fun for the sense of smell.
We all know that curiosity killed the cat, but humans cannot resist its powerful temptation after all.
