>GOTTA SMELL'EM ALLthis was the kind of movie you put on when you've pulled a quirky chungus alt girl with a jack skellington tattoo from the bar and she's not slutty enough to go down on you right away

>>25284640>hau daz it kompare to ze movieI haven't seen the movie, but in the book Grenouille gets caught and sentenced to public execution for all of the murders, but when he gets trotted out in front of the town, everyone in attendance suddenly believes that he isn't the murderer (even though he was caught redhanded), and then they all fuck each other in a mass orgy - all because he's wearing the scent of one of the girls he murdered. Then they let him go, he goes to Paris, walks into the graveyard in the middle of the night while wearing the same scent, and a bunch of thieves and prostitutes take out a bunch of axes and chop him into little pieces (because of the scent?) and then the book ends.
>>25284994senk you herr glassman pepeI've checked now (haven't seen it in ages) and more or less how the movie also ends except that it was not a graveyard but the poverty district and he spills the remaining juice on himself, making the poverty people cannibalize him... with love
>>25284145A good one. The end in the movie wasn't gory enough. They should have hired someone who makes zombie movie effects. The real thing looked cartoonishly clean. You don't end a Dionysian blood orgy without a single drop of blood. No, now I managed to make myself actually angry. They could have put in such great imagery, and they just didn't fucking do it? The entire culmination of the film and they get COLD FEET? After all the gross shit and murder, and not one scullery maid smearing blood across her tits in mindless ecstasy? What was the fucking point?

Any other good book on smells? Calvino has a short in Under the Jaguar Sun but pales in comparison to the collection's titular story...Smartphones really ruined people's sense of smell, directly or indirectly, so we might as well gather up what's been done before the next Flood...
