[QUOTE] [B]New York native Daniel Peltz has hatched a plan to collect the sweat of Swedish glass-blowers and sell it as a perfume to tourists visiting his adoptive home, according to a report in the local Norrköpings Tidning daily.[/B]

"It is sweat which I have refined in a secret recipe," the New Yorker turned Sweden summer resident told the newspaper.
Peltz has noted that tourists are happy to spend their hard-earned cash on Swedish glass and hopes that they will also want to splash out on splashing on a little sweat-induced perfume.
"The glass-blower's sweat and work is something that tourists appreciate when they come here and look. So for me there isn't such a huge difference in selling the glass-blower's sweat and the finished glass," he said.
The project is not a pure commercial enterprise - Daniel Peltz is a conceptual artist in residence at the [URL="http://www.thelocal.se/tag/rejmyre"]Rejmyre[/URL] Art LAB in eastern Sweden.
He came up with the project when he noted that every glass work produced at the local Rejmyre glass works contained a little sweat from its creator.
The sweaty fragrance is the result of a cooperation with the local glass-blowers, who were happy to provide a slightly unorthodox fruit of their labours.
"Very different. We normally strive after perfection, now it was about the process," said Elin Jonsson at Rejmyre glass works to the newspaper.
