The Great Pumpkin Scent

Research at the Smell and Taste Treatment and Research Foundation which found that a pumpkin pie-based mixture increased male sexual arousal by 40% appears to not have been lost on Tilda Swinton. The unconventional Scottish beauty has just launched her signature fragrance, Like This, and it smells just like Thanksgiving!

It was not the sexual side effects, however, but the longing to carry a reminder of her Scotland home while traveling which inspired the fragrance, according to the actress. “I thought about how great it would be if I could have a smell that would keep me at home wherever I was. So I started to think about my home smells, and the principal ingredients became ginger, baby carrot, pumpkin,” Swinton told New York Magazine. “I’m a November child—a pumpkin child—so this whole idea of orange is there.”
