GUAIzine ft. Dreckig bleiben

The perfume’s inherently contradictory name, Dreckig bleiben (German for “stay dirty”), also stands for a general counter idea to repeated and seldom-held false promises.

Dreckig bleiben means hanging out with your best friends in your oldest but cosiest tracking pants down by the river, in the warmth of a campfire. Your feet in the sand and a glass of wine in your hand. No suits, no high heels, no white shirts, no patent-leather shoes. Not playing a role, just being yourself. No decorum, no shenanigans. I am who I am. And the next day I’m going to crawl out of bed, happy and satisfied, with the scent of the night and the bonfire still hanging on me. It doesn’t come better than that.

Dreckig bleiben—a finely-tuned rejection of superficiality. Like a pair of beloved, beat-up sneakers or an underarm tattoo that stand just for themselves. Nothing less, nothing more.

I ordered a sample and these were my first comments to @laurelwen:

"I smell like Skynet's pussy. I smell like an alien abduction operating room."

"It's uncomforting. It's alien."

"It's the foreplay at a latex play party before the thunderstorm rolls in."

"It's the traces of blood lingering in a top flight Arasaka ripperdoc's office. The promise of metal and straps and transformation."

In short: Marc-Antoine Barrois's Ganymede gets my highest possible recommendation. I can't remember the last time I was head over heels for a scent like this.

Post title: "I want to smell inhuman." 

Post body: "This is probably a very weird request, but I've become fascinated by the idea of a fragrance with no humanity or warmth at all- cold, remote, imposing, untouchable. Not repulsive, but beautiful in a, well, inhuman way,..."
