65-year-old Christian Poincheval is a French inventor who has dedicated twelve years of his life to make farts smell nicer.
Christian claims that his Lutin Malin (English translation “crafty imp”) line of pills ease digestion and “perfume” flatulence into smelling like violets and roses. A newer creation now also makes them smell like chocolate.
It’s “The Father Christmas fart pill that gives your farts the scent of chocolate.” Christian told The Local.
“It’s a nice present for the festive season,” “There will be a real need for these pills over Christmas.”
Christian said his invention was inspired by an awkwardly flatulent dinner with friends years ago.
“We had just come back from Switzerland and we were eating a lot with our friends and the smell from the flatulence was really terrible. We couldn’t breathe so me and a friend decided something had to be done,” he said.
“I wanted to undress the shame you feel when you fart at the table,”
“the fear you feel that the fart may travel farther. I wanted to remove this complex, if you will.”, Christian told The Verge.
The wonder pills are presented as “100% natural” and include seaweed, fennel, and blueberries among their ingredients.
