"The world of perfume and the small pool of talented perfumers who work within the industry is a fascinating realm to explore. Whilst most of us are familiar with the iconic fragrance bottles and their accompanying campaigns, less is known about the perfumer, or the 'nose' behind them. These individuals are specialists, effectively artists who are highly trained in the concepts of fragrance aesthetics and capable of conveying abstract concepts and moods with delicate fragrance compositions. Geza Schoen is a leading independent nose, and the man behind one of the world's most standout fragrances, Escentric Molecules. Having previously resided in London, New York and Paris, German-born Schoen now lives and works from his home in Berlin, on the top floor of a 1960s apartment block in Kreuzberg. The apartment includes a small laboratory, which contains the all-important tools of his trade: raw materials, a scale and mixing accruements. He has recently realised that a fun way of crossing his modernist apartment, from laboratory to desk, is using a skateboard." anothermag.com

Plethora Magazine is an independent, bianual publication founded in Copenhagen that seeks to challenge the bounds of the conventional magazine format — conceptually as well as physically. More akin to a carefully curated work of art the magazine serves up a novel and thought provoking take on the approach to printed matter that is both infinitely slower than your average glossy mag and excessive enough in format to seriously put the size of any coffee table to the test. Skilfully printed by the monks of a hindu temple an air of serenity permeates from every page of the magazine as the reader is taken on a wondrous and timeless journey far away from the cultural mainstream. In honouring the unique qualities of artisanal printing tradition, Plethora offers a purist take on the future expression of the printed magazine and a quiet ode to all the things left behind by the fast track digilisation. No noize, no ads and no logos, just 52 pages of postersize visual indulgence and tales from the life less ordinary presented in a careful blend of quirky archive material, fine art prints and contemporary artist features.

Welcome to the universe of David Mallett, one of the most celebrated hairdressers in the French and international fashion and beauty scene. David has worked with some of the world's most renowned fashion designers, photographers, artist and stylists. Opened in 2003, the David Mallett Salon is an extension of his personal philosophy: luxurious and incredibly relaxed at the same time. It is located in the heart of Paris, a stone's throw from Place des Victoires and Galerie Vivienne. Located in a grand 17th century hôtel particulier, the luminous salon, is filled with antiques and retro collector's piece furnishings, and eclectic taxidermy. Mallett wanted his salon to be like walking into a fantasy. And today, one of the nicest things about this fantasy is to see a princess, an actress, a model and the woman working in the butcher's shop, all talking and having a cup of tea together chez lui. They are all attended by a 20-strong multinational, cosmopolitan and highly considerate and knowledgeable staff. Watch the video here.

Voguing came out of the extraordinary house ballroom scene that emerged in Harlem, New York in the 1980s where men competed against one another for their dancing skills, the realness of their drag and their ability to walk on a catwalk runway like a model.

Voguing erupted into the mainstream in 1990 when Madonna’s song Vogue became number one in over 30 countries. The year before Malcolm McClaren first brought voguing into the mainstream with his song Deep in Vogue featuring dancer Willi Ninja. In 1990 Jennie Livingstone’s film Paris is Burning, documented the house ballroom scene in it’s ascendant, the film a runaway success grossing over $4,000,000.

As voguing entered into the mainstream the house ballrooms of Harlem came downtown mixing with the downtown fashion crowd of Manhattan, before the onslaught of the AIDS epidemic ravaged the ballroom community.

These wild years of voguing and the house ballroom scene are vividly captured at its height in hundreds of amazing, previously unpublished photographs. A visual riot of fashion, gender, polysexuality and subversive style, Voguing and the House Ballroom Scene of New York 1989-92 is also a fascinating document on sexuality and race.

The 200 page book, Voguing and the House Ballroom Scene of New York City 1989-92, features hundreds of stunning photographs from the hidden world of New York’s house ballroom scene out of which came voguing, the dance made famous by Madonna. Available now at Storm. Click for video.
