Theyboth carry the dread, surreal mood tags, and they sit in Drama / Fantasy territory. If that's the register that drew you to El laberinto del fauno, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What El Perfume: Historia de un asesino is
You apprentice with a perfumer in 18th century Paris, where your uncanny sense of smell leads to alchemic heights. But the obsession to capture the most sublime scents descends into something dark. Tykwer's adaptation dwells on the sensory, a feast that turns queasy.
