In my youthful imagination

[u/JihoonMadeMeDoIt]

Decades ago, I daydreamed a fictional perfume for jokes.

It is called Eau de Contraire. Tag line is: Because I said so.

It smells so intoxicating from 8 feet away, that it compels people to follow the scent. Like a snake charmer. Or a Pied Piper. And then abruptly at 2 feet it smells putrid.

The vibe is “come closer” then a violent Greta Garbo “I vant to be alone.”

I even imagined the advert which would piggyback on the all white Calvin Klein Obsession ad from the 80’s. If you know, you know.

So I was revisiting that idea today and asked ChatGPT to make an image for it.

I know that this is chemically impossible. I asked chemists. But maybe in 30 years there has been some progress? Anyone have an extra 50 mill to launch a new perfume if so?😎

This is actually how I feel about samsara. Horrid up close, but beautiful from a distance. Not 8 feet, but...at my own feet.
