This reeks of genius.
D.S. & Durga, a Brooklyn perfume house, has captured the scent of Albert Einstein in a bottle.
See, Einstein was revered not just for his scientific advancements, but his style, too — namely, his signature golden-brown Levi’s leather jacket. In 2016, the denim brand acquired the original piece at a 2016 Christie’s auction for 110,500 pounds (about $152,000). Surprisingly, the brainiac’s scent still lingered.
Wisdom doesn’t come cheap, however: It’ll cost you $1,200 to look and smell like the scientist.
