Dutch artists Lernert & Sander's latest artwork is a perfume entitled 'Everything' and is a mixture of 1400 fragrance launches from 2012. The perfume is packaged in a specially designed and hand blown bottle, based on a sample vial. You can see and try the fragrance at Colette, 213 Rue St-Honoré in Paris until 9th March. See more in the video below:

Didn't Diptyque already do this with 34 Blvd. St. Germain ?

(Ps. I think it's Sander, like the machine, not Sandler, like the annoying actor).

What if it actually smells good? Honestly I can not imagine this mess but as a conceptual art project it is an awsome idea. Somebody, just describe the notes! LOL.

This is pretty awesome.

If you took some big whiffs of it, I wonder if it would result in an instant habituation (inability to smell) all 1400 fragrances...

I think someone has too much time on their hands.

Better yet, find someone to put it through a gas chromatograph, and discover how redundant or not they are!

If it have all the launches from 2012 it basically will smell like Acqua di Gio + Oud.
Acqua di Gioud.

I'll bet it will smell like that scent you smell in the air when you walk into the fragrance department of a huge department store like Macy's or Selfridge's. Don't deny it, it's a delicious smell - the combination of every fragrance that's been shpritzed that day or week or month. I often wish that odor could be captured, and maybe now it has been.

Fourteen HUNDRED!??? That's about 1300 too many. Yikes.

^ I guess the hole point is that it's 1399 too many.

Mildly interesting, however.
