'I think it's good to call people out and change the language and hold people accountable.' Chloësevigny

and Ezra Woods, Sevigny extends her arm asking me to smell it."It's very lush and fresh," she says excitedly,"and has notes of rose in it and black tea, but it is still very kind of like –– I mean lush is the best word... like wet. It has that very bright scent!"

"She was also called 'The Little Flower,' and she died quite young and was very humble," Sevigny says."So there's all these prayers around flowers to her and I read this poem, ode/prayer to her as part of a promotional thing for Regime Des Fleurs."and an exclusive lipstick called La Bouche Rouge, fragrance is still a fairly new territory for the actress.

"I feel like often people gravitate towards sweet powdery scents, but that's just not something that I respond to," she says, nonchalantly."I feel like my scent-related memories pertain to different foods, certain perfumes," she explains."Like whenever I smell Tom Ford Black Orchid, I think of a time when I lived in LA and I would only wear it in LA and it would never work for me in New York. So it's very specific to that.

Still, regardless of the unique formulation and her steady involvement in creating the perfume , beauty in 2019 is a big, competitive business. It's pretty convincing. Sevigny has always gravitated towards the"different," most evident through her long spanning career with some of the most critically acclaimed films and TV shows such as, and more recently, the HBO series exploring polygamy,Although the actress has starred in a few mainstream Hollywood projects, including David Fincher's"No they just haven't hired me, unfortunately. I wish they would," Sevigny says.

A timely film, especially as the collective cultural interpretation of gender and sexuality continues to evolve. Although Sevigny herself has championed both minorities and women, call out or 'cancel culture' has sort of become a deadly internet norm, especially if you're a celebrity. Sevigny, however, isn't deterred, just confused."Jesus, where have I been? I've never even heard that term," she confesses.
