Many perfumes call to mind a colour. But only a few compositions manage to conjure a convincingly multi-hued effect: an impression of several different tones and tints coming together to create a cohesive whole.

For the complete list, with time stamps, please keep scrolling. Oh, and be warned: my choice of shirt for this particular video outing wasn’t exactly subtle.
