Icelandic
pop

Bjork
claims
to have a
seventh
sense
: the
ability
to
determine
people’s
birthplaces
from the
distinctive
smells
they
emit
.
According
to her,
someone
born
in
Copenhagen
has a
scent
that is
equal
parts
cinnamon
,
tangerine
and
burning
rubber
, while a
native
of
Muncie
,
Indiana
reeks
of
tobacco
leaves
packed
in
styrofoam
, and
babies’
tears
.
