Dita Von Teese on the Alluring Power of Perfume, Burlesque & Glamour | Part 1 (Scent World E22)

[@correioanacabral]

That interviewer girl did an awesome job. Dita was so confortable. I love hearing her talk, such an inspiration and so true to what she is.

[@itswhatitis277]

Minus the fact that she talks like Trisha Paytas

[@cece4331]

Yeah, I disagree. The way she talks made me feel uncomfortable. I can’t stand the voice fry.

[@justinwilliams7290]

She did an absolutely terrible job. She asked the same things as every interviewer. Dita almost didn't get to mention she couldn't afford designer jeans as a young person and vintage and the lingerie shop...

[@crystalkeller4636]

@@cece4331I thought the same thing. Her voice is irritating and it seems like she was trying to copycat the way Dita speaks and it just sounds fake and condescending.

[@babaganouche9605]

Dita is a legitimate inspiration and someone to look up to. She came from a middle class, humble family and worked very hard for her dream life. She is so classy, but explores and doesn't judge beauty that is alternative to her own. She is elegant in her mannerisms and how she chooses to treat people. She doesn't just look the part, she embraced all of it.❤

middle class what is wrong with middle class? Middle class have a lower suicide rate cheating rate than upper class

[@lorir5728]

The femininity is just so attractive to me. We run around in sweats and yoga pants when we go out. There's a feminine part that isn't there anymore. I love all the dainty frilly things. Being in a boudoir and just getting ready is actually the best part. I love embracing the feminine side

The "theatre of glamour". That's why we love this elegant and truly original woman. Dita makes us remember the magic of the "Hollywood make-over". A fascinating character, entirely self made and fabulous. She is a role model for independent women who own their feminity. 💐

[@hanakuz]

She's so fascinating to look at .

[@OneKENDRA35]

I had no idea she was in her 50s😮 she looks scary young. So pretty ❤

[@blackhagalaz]

To be honest, I of course always knew Dita Existed somewhere out there doing her thing, but its just recently that I have learned more about her as a person. I think she is just so delightfull, confident jet so nice and human. She of course looks gorgeous and classy, but there is just something about her personality that is very encouraging. She shows us women that its absolutely within our right to feel confident and sexy and be undoubtably ourselves the way we want to be. And I didnt realize that this is always something that I wanted to be growing up. I was the typical plus-sized goth girl as a teenager, always wearing chokers, and long skirts and wide coats. Other kids my age loved to call me "Satanist", or "Blade" (jet the more creative name I got lol), so her story about "Cleopatra" is just so relatable. Still I couldnt bare to wear something "normal". Not because I craved the attention ( I am actually an introvert), but because it just felt wrong to be "normal". Once i got into the job market I really toned it down a lot, but never really could shake of little nods of what I wanted to be. So recently after a hard time of personal crysis, I finally had the time to care a little bit for myself again. Exercise, creating a hair and skin routine, and finally being confident enough to start wearing lipstick. I love antiques and vintage fashion so much (1890´s-1930´s), and I think now its time to give in to that urge, to be more myself again. Dita is honestly such a big inspiration for me right now, because her confidence is just so radiant. We need more women like her in our lives. Thank you Dita❤

[@FilleDesSoucoupesVolantes]

I'm quite a lot like Dita with my appearance and scents (not at all as femme fatale but I like dressing up, being tailored, and put together whenever I can at all times and I like the finer things in life when it comes to my designer wardrobe, shoes, bags, cosmetics).I'm faithful to my usual designer brands. My husband seriously dislikes my ways though. He thinks I'm too high maintenance. And I am! Which is why I run 2 businesses and invest in the stock market and am fiercely independent. Because my husband doesn't like to spend a cent on me as he's very low-maintenance and minimalist.

[@heels4heal]

Good for you being independent! If you don't mind me asking, but if your husband dislikes your ways, why is he with you? And since he's so cheap (not because he's minimalist, c'mon girl), why are you with him? Asking this because I've been disappointed in men a lot, and to me being independent is the best a woman can be.

[@taintedlife2618]

It’s amazing Killian hasn’t had the sense to do a fragrance release with her.

[@sakurazukamorisubaru]

Kinda agree, but also sometimes it's better not to mix work with a friendship.

[@adrianavargova]

Right? I love Killian fragrances. I think they could create something "dirty" and amazing.

[@lesafowers8142]

As a disabled person I really need to dress up to just go out. So know I have favorite wigs and very often dress like a gangster. So it's a beautiful girl with an imagination of how to rule being in a wheelchair. So I glam it up with all I have and wear perfume. Don't forget your lipstick and perfume!!!💗💗💗

[@reneegriffin8904]

My niece is disabled and one of our favorite things is to go full glamoured up and have coffee and go to the bookstore. It makes us both so happy! ❤

I loved Ombre Rose and went through several bottles in the 80s. I have a few vintage bottles of it now, but I’ve since discovered a similar scent - Loukhoum Eau Poudree by Keiko Mecheri and tend to reach for it more often than Ombre Rose.

[@LDAlways]

I enjoy listening to Dita, that interviewer has no idea of half of the perfumes Dita was naming .. you can tell because she had no real conversation to add to Dita’s asking her do you remember this one?! She was like … blank smile.

I absolutely love her philosophy on glamour rather than beauty, and, of course, she is very beautiful too. I love scent too. I don't wear perfume a lot but as they talked about you can have scent in other ways. I like a nicely perfumed lipstick.

[@jeanne8264]

I just like listening to her

[@anttt9912]

I wish dita was interviewed by someone who was a little more cooky. & who caught her references. Or maybe just played with her a little more. You can tell dita set her up for a little playfullness. Shes a little tease like that 😂 i also love when the conversation evolves passed the cards, & not just reiterating what someone else is saying. But maybe she had a time limit to get all her questions in

[@Scentbird]

Dita's playfulness is such a tease ❤️ Were there specific moments where you wanted more details or a deeper dive into the conversation?

[@anttt9912]

Yea i think just a deeper dive into Ditas mind. I would have loved to have heard more about her and raja, the experiences she had as a club kid. When she talks about how she wanted a scent with a little more raunchiness, what is a raunchy scent to dita? Lol When she talks about working with Jean Paul Gaultier, what was he like? Shes an interesting woman, i think shes used to eclectic conversation from pretty out there folks. I think Dita has so much to give, that her answers provide so much already. I just dont think the interviewer necessarily could keep up with how much she said. Or maybe she didnt have the time to evolve the convo passed the cards. That being said i had way too much time on my hands this thanksgiving weekend to fully dissect this conversation 😂

[@Nope22119]

I agree the interviewer only ever repeated what Dita said back to her and read off the cards. It was frustrating to watch. More research on her part or just picking someone who's actually familiar with that world that Dita is from would have made for a deeper interview, although Dita has so much charisma and such a wealth of knowledge that she could carry any interview on her own. The interviewer is a sweet girl but they just didn't seem to be on the same wavelength at all.

[@Nope22119]

And even without knowledge of the fashion world, club kid scene, eighties fragrance etc... someone with more natural curiosity or adeptness at building on Dita's responses with related questions would have been a huge improvement. (why didn't we get to learn about which perfumes are Dita's "significant others" or which ones she's enjoyed "flirting" with the most? if time was an issue, these questions take seconds to answer.)

[@monamarlowe]

She really gets it..... I still have a half full bottle of Erotique. I love Dita! 🥂🥰✨

I bet we're all the same: whenever we see a celebrity of some kind, one with a distinct sense of aesthetics or even someone we encounter in daily life whom we feel needs our, ahem, styling help to create a greater impact, we figure out which ten fragrances we'd recommend for them to wear, what would SUIT them the best. The entire duration of this interview, all I could think of is which ten fragrances I could picture enhancing Dita's style and beauty. Can I just say though, if she's ever wanting to make a 'funky, dirty, raunchy' fragrance she needs to give our girl Francesca Bianchi a call. Yowsers! I blush just thinking about her 'Under My Skin' creation.

[@123cillitbang]

OH Dita! I want to metamorphosis into you. I glam it up once and awhile but I want to fully immerse myself in all the feminine and glam.

Are you kidding me?The scent of lilacs *IS* my childhood! And Polo takes me back like nothing else. Hard to believe she was born with blonde hair - the dark looks natural against her very pale skin. Actually jealous of her skin. Love’s Baby Soft and Coty Wild Musk. Then it was Obsession. So many compliments. I love how she mentions creating beauty and not just being born with it - I for one am not confident in no makeup makeup, and I “get ready” for things - I don’t just roll out of bed and go to work like all of my female colleagues - and I felt bad in a way, like it’s vein to care, so I wanted to be “less caring” and put together, and it makes me literally feel invisible - which is fine when I want to be - just go sans makeup and hair and I’m a completely different person.
