“香水記事”的背後花絮 (二)
此次展覽，我很榮幸有機會能和調香師 Yann Vasnier 合作。Yann 多變性的感受力創作了諸如 Marc Jacobs, Tom Ford, Donna Karan, Comme Des Garçons 和 Tommy Hilfiger 品牌的香水。
對我來說，詩應該是最能貼切生動地表達香水的意境。也因此我寫了一首詩, 讓人一探 Fifi W 耐人尋味的世界， 也希望藉由它點燃 Yann 在嗅覺上的想像力。這是一個由白色的童話般的感官元素所組成的詩，它編織 Fifi W 的性格，並且娓娓道出了一個香水的故事。
Yann 讀透, 解碼, 再將這首詩化為一種無形的, 美麗的, 飄逸出氤氤香氣的森林。這首詩是這樣寫的:
如果是在破曉時分，它像是抹上一層淡藍光澤的銀色。
如果是在幽暗的月光下，它閃爍著珍珠白的光茫。
如果用我的指尖輕輕碰，它有羽毛的觸感。
如果把它放在我的手掌中，它輕盈地想脫逃。
如果我用舌尖品嚐它，它的口感柔潤。
如果我把它放在嘴裡，它清新怡人。
如果它是樂器，那就是鋼琴。
如果我仔細聆聽，耳邊響起陳綺貞的裊裊歌聲。
如果我聞一聞，挪威森林的味道翩然而至。
如果它是一朵花，聞起來像是蘊涵著百合花香的露珠， 而不是艷陽底下的紅玫瑰。
透過了Fifi 的感官世界，希望你會明白外放的感官之美–––––––他們給你一張
心靈的圖片。
The Scenes Behind “The Story of a Perfume” (II)
In this exhibition, I was glad to have the chance to collaborate with Mr. Yann Vasnier, the perfumer at Givaudan who has brought a versatile sensibility to perfumes for Marc Jacobs, Tom Ford, Donna Karan, Comme Des Garçons and Tommy Hilfiger.
To me, poetry might seems to be the best way to describe a perfume. I wrote a poem that offers an intriguing glimpse into the world of Fifi W, and used it to ignite Yann’s olfactory imagination. Composed of sensory elements of a white fairytale, the poem weaves the story of a perfume that speaks softly to Fifi’s character.
Yann decoded the poem and illustrated it as an invisible, beautiful way perfume travels in the forest. The poem goes like this:
If I saw it in the dawn, it would be silver with layers of light blue.
If I saw it under the dim moonlight, it would be pearl white.
If I touched it with the tip of a finger, it would feel like feather.
If I took it into my palm, it would escape.
If I tasted it, its texture would be soft.
If I took it between my lips, it refreshes my mouth.
If it were a musical instrument, it would be a piano.
I hope through the sensory world of Fifi, you would understand the beauty of opening up the senses -–– they give your
MIND a picture.
