FKA twigs on Gifting Nicolas Cage a 'Pooey Scent' Perfume for 'The Carpenter's Son'

Visceral Filming Experience in Greece

• 🎬 Filming "The Carpenter's Son" in Greece was described as a visceral experience due to the heat, itchy wool costumes, and numerous animals on set.
• 🐑 The presence of animals, including lambs, contributed to the sensory atmosphere with their smells, noises, and bleeding.

Crafting a Character-Specific Perfume

• 🎁 FKA twigs created a perfume for co-star Nicolas Cage, who plays Joseph, as a way to get into character.
• 👃 The perfume was intended to capture the essence of Joseph, with notes of donkey, hay, and frankincense.
• 💩 Uniquely, the scent also included a "pooey scent", which twigs thought would enhance the character portrayal.

Nicolas Cage's Reaction

• 🎭 Upon meeting Cage and experiencing the film set, twigs realized the perfume might have been unnecessary given the already immersive environment.
• 👍 Despite the unusual scent, Cage liked the perfume and was a perfect gentleman about it.
