So states Tilda Swinton as she lays atop a scanning machine reciting the French art theorist Andre Malraux as though auditioning for Shakespeare. The film which is presented here to the viewer is pure invention. Swinton continues in a behind the scenes interview admitting that acquiring a perfume campaign “Is what you set out to be an actress to do really, isn’t it?” When asked to talk about the actual fragrance she replies “Oh I can’t talk about the fragrance, have you smelled it?”
