They have bottled perfumes based on everyday scents, like Laundromat, Grass and Leather but now New York Demeter Fragrance Library (DFL) have release of a new fragrance - Kitten Fur. Which smells like "a combination of skin and sunshine", according to DFLCEO Mark Crames, keeping things vague. To identify and replicate the scent signature produced by a place or object, perfumers may use a technique called headspace technology, where they isolate and sample the air near its source, in order to build a chemical fingerprint that can be replicated in the lab, he explains. Plant based scents are much easier to recreate and even the New Baby scent was easier to reproduce with the smells of lotion, powder and baby shampoo. Bacon and Puppy's Breath are still in development.

Baptism celebration a runaway success
Late last month, more than 100 people who claimed to be celebrating a baptism sat down to a banquet at a restaurant in Bembibre in northern Spain. The group had appetisers and entrees and quaffed 30 bottles of wine, but as restaurant staff prepared to serve dessert and coffee, the merry celebrants got up to dance in a conga line and danced out of the restaurant and into the night. Leaving an unpaid bill of about 3000 ($4615). Police have arrested a man who is also suspected of plotting the same scheme on another restaurant in another town. (Source: NPR.com)
