Food inspiration: Potatoes, tomatoes and eggplant
This delightful lunch I had in Berlin sparked my creative juices. Potatoes, tomatoes and eggplant – what perfume could I make using this dish as my ‘culinary muse’? Potatoes: Cepes absolute? Tomatoes: Not sure about that one. Eggplant: Hmmmm. Perfume Shrine has a long love letter to the plant, calling the aroma “smoky” but resigned to the fact that “(p)erfumers might not have succumbed to its charms yet”. Would choya nakh work? It’s made from roasted seashells. I have a small bottle of it stored away. It’s time to break it out.
So, what do you think? And how would tomato be represented?
