Robert Pattinson, aka everyone’s favorite brooding vampire-turned-dad, has sniffed his way into the parenting hall of fame! The 38-year-old actor and his fiancée, model-musician-queen-of-cool Suki Waterhouse, welcomed their first baby last year—a girl who, apparently, has the kind of aroma that could inspire candle sales at Goop.
In true Pattinson style, the couple has been tighter-lipped than a lockbox about their little one, leaving fans hungry for details. But last month, Robert finally gave the world a whiff (pun intended) of his dad life with some rare comments about his daughter—and boy, did he deliver.
In a recent interview with Vogue, Robert dished on one of the lesser-known perks of parenting: his baby’s distinct smell. Yes, we’re talking Eau de Pattinson Junior.
“Look, I used to think all that ‘babies smell good’ talk was just people inhaling baby powder,” Rob confessed, chuckling. “Like, come on, they can’t all smell that great. Then I had a baby, and BAM—turns out, my baby smells like… I don’t know, magic? Sunshine? Whatever it is, I can totally identify her by smell. She doesn’t smell like other babies.”
That’s right, other babies—take note. You may be cute, but you’re not Pattinson baby cute.
This week, Robert hit the red carpet in South Korea for a press conference about his new movie, Mickey 17, alongside the legendary director Bong Joon Ho. But honestly, who cares about movies when we’re all still processing the fact that Robert Pattinson’s nose has entered its dad era?
Someone call a perfumer—we need this scent bottled stat.
