Transcript excerpt

0:05 It's a respectful silence. You can hear noise of the trees moving around. The birds. I wish a good morning to this store. It perfectly represent the style of the

0:35 city. Since I was a kid I have synesthesia. My sensorial spectrum has developed stronger. But surely was a pale grey. Another one was a particular type of green. The way it smell now help me also to interact with people who can enter this store because my colors mean something.

1:18 When I blend you can see that the people that are observing you are hypnotized. It's like watching your mom apply makeup. You don't know what it is. You don't know how she does it. But you are caught by their actions. I'm making something for you with my hands.

1:48 So it's like giving a little part of me. What I like about it, about slow perfumery, is that you have the time to dive into with the people. We know explanation kills art. But things are way also to introduce it in a way when people feel so safe. Even if they are not the topic.

2:20 So be gentle, be friendly to everyone. That's all we need here.
