By Kayla Baken

Pro 1

For one month every year, City Exclusives are looking for someone new to wear...

Happy swiping!

TUBEREUSE 40 (New York)

Wearing me is like…

Learning whispered secrets of the city that only reveal themselves in the stillness before dawn.

BIGARADE 18 (Hong Kong)

My greatest strengths…

Rich, evocative, and long-lasting. Need I say more?

POIVRE 23 (London)

My simple pleasure…

Lingering on your knit jumpers, of course.

MYRRHE 55 (Shanghai)

Biggest risk I’ve ever taken…

Disturbing the peace at the Peace Hotel.

MUSC 25 (LA)

My dream is to…

Sit on your skin while you sit in traffic.

CEDRAT 37 (Berlin)

A cause I care about…

Your right to smell ravishing after eight hours of clubbing.

MOUSSE DE CHENE 30 (Amsterdam)

Together we could…

Go Dutch on a bottle of me?

LIMETTE 37 (San Francisco)

Believe it or not, I…

Am the real San Francisco treat.

CORIANDRE 39 (Mexico City)

Let’s make sure we’re on the same page about…

Cilantro, por favor!

CUIR 28 (Dubai)

​​My love language is…

The timeless elegance of a vintage car gliding past the glittering skyline.

TABAC 28 (Miami)

The award I should be nominated for…

Most likely to turn every glance into a gaze.

GAIAC 10 (Tokyo)

A typical Sunday…

Wouldn’t know. It’s always Saturday night when you’re with me.

VANILLE 44 (Paris)

I’m a regular at…

Your clavicle, hopefully.

CITRON 28 (Seoul)

A pro and con of wearing me…

Pro – more people will want to hang out with you.

Con – more people will want to hang out with you.

ALDEHYDE 44 (Dallas)

Don’t judge me if…

I want to meet your pheromones after one date.

BAIE ROSE 26 (Chicago)

I know the best spot in town for…

Olfactory jazz (it’s in my bottle), joy

Also, pizza.
