First Perfume inspired by the smell of a new guitar case

Sustain by APC:The fragrance of a Waterloo Sunset!

Millions of people swarming like flies around Waterloo undergound...Ahh, I can smell it now.

What a load of rubbish!

There are so many weird comparisons here that aren't exactly working with each other. A fragrance "inspired by" a guitar chord in a Kinks song? Then it's supposed to smell like a guitar case? Most guitar cases smell like toxic glue and China. Hardly the best scent......

Yes,I only put Yardley Black Label in my guitar cases.

Why does the "bottle" look like it's been taken from a 19th century cloth waving machine?

Maybe it smells like Waterloo Underground station?

So many miss the typical Ray Davies irony of that song title. The plot of the song, however, redeems the title in a non-ironic way.

For expansion, see their short film treatment, "Return to Waterloo", (1985, filmed in '84), which features Davies as a busker in the Underground in an early scene.

I can't believe this is a real product.

I've been saying for YEARS, RIC should bottle RIC O SMELL and sell it!

I have a sneaking suspicion that the design of the bottle is a graphic representation of the first chord in "Waterloo Sunset"...trying to wrap my mind around it, but...AAAH!!!...that SMELL!!!....noooo!

I scratched the screen bit couldn't smell a thing.

You have to upgrade to a "scratch'n'sniff" monitor.
