Death, putrefaction, bacteria. This is what we smell when we arrive at the coast and breathe in the sweet odor of the sea. In this short film, perfumer Ernesto Collado takes us on an olfactory exploration to rewild our most under-appreciated sense and begin to discover the language of our natural world.
In an incredible journey kickstarted by completely losing his sense of smell to a neurological disorder, Collado comes back to nature and inadvertently becomes closer to the enigmatic grandfather he so admired.
