  Blue jeans / White shirt

  

  In a moment of perfect cultural and emotional synergy we rediscovered Blue Jeans by Versace. The bottle caught our eye a couple of weeks ago and the sight of it intrigued us, but we couldn’t put our finger on what it was. And then we tried it and it was like a Proustian cookie. It was like a taking an express train back to the early 1990s (the fragrance was launched in 1994), to our bedroom in 1995, to being young.

  And then, while looking for a review of it on YouTube, we came across Blue Jeans by Lana Del Rey.

  Suddenly it all makes sense.

  1994 and 2011. 
  Something old that smells fresh. 
  Something new that sounds old. 
  Wearing an unfashionable scent.
