130 Street Photographies after the Paris Attacks - 130 photographies de rue, après les attentats de Paris - In Memoriam
Perfume people are used to thinking in terms of raw materials and strange associations of notes. This is why perhaps it feels almost natural to this perfume blogger to present a crime scene photo and make it sound like a fragrance concept in its captioning...
The vision itself was strange; nine days after the Paris attacks you could still spot traces of former pools of blood on the sidewalk, covered with sawdust. It shows how the deflagration from the multiple attacks which were launched in the greater Paris was so strong and traumatic that some aspects of normal life had come to a standstill.
That place, the Casa Nostra, has yet to reopen.
This photo is part of a series capturing the atmosphere of Paris after 11/13 in 130 pictures, one each day for each of the 130 Paris Attack victims.
