Scent of a Man, Part 2

Last week we emailed writer Chandler Burr‘s publicist BEFORE we wrote the post titled “Scent of a Man.” (Burr has a new column on fragrances “Scent Strip” in The New York Times) Imagine our surprise when we heard from Burr himself a day later via email. So we decided this was a good opportunity to ask Mr. Burr some questions about posh perfumes.

UnBeige (U): What’s your first memory of perfume? How did it influence your future experiences with fragrances?

Chandler Burr (CB): It’s the classic memory: My mother in her softly rustling party clothes coming in to kiss me goodnight before she and my father went out.
