Sean Combs is now a scent, faintly detectable in the lifts of a department store beside a Manila mall food court. He is fine and in good spirits. Staff describe the aroma as expensive, confident and slightly late.

Three things have been noted: a faint 'uh huh, yeah' arriving a second after the lift doors close, a white linen tablecloth that appears folded in the corner at 4pm, and a sales assistant who now answers the phone with 'take that, take that'.

Management has propped the doors open, sprayed a pine air freshener and played 'I'll Be Missing You' softly to coax him out. This only made the scent stronger, and now it hums along in the key of the lift's bell.

Guidance for the public

Do not follow the smell. If it says 'uh huh', do not respond.
