A couple of days ago I blogged about the NY Times' new perfume critic. Seems he's come along just in time. Word just out ... you can now get Eau de Stilton - which I guess is the equivalent of cheese phew in a bottle. Nigel White, of the Stilton Cheesemakers' Association, which commissioned the project, is reported as saying: "Blue Stilton cheese has a very distinctive, mellow aroma and our perfumier was able to capture the key essence of that scent and recreate it in what is an unusual but highly wearable perfume." I'm not sure I want to test it and see if it really does "recreate the earthy and fruity aroma" of the cheese.
Of course, cheese isn't the only thing being channelled into perfume - according to an ABC News Nightline Online report Who Wants to Smell Like Cheese there are people who dab on a little essence of almost anything eg dirt, new car, burnt rubber, burning leaves, library and even Play-Doh.
