Theo James is once again starting our week with an amazing interview for Magazine Digital, in which this time around he talks to the magazine about the art behind his fragrance for Hugo Boss as their new ambassador for the new fragrance, The Scent. Read the translated interview down below, translated from Spanish to English:

It is an intense man in his eyes and gestures. About to turn 31 years, the first surprise of Theo James is his voice, modulated and very deep. The British sense of ironic and sarcastic humor, reveals once, like his study of the land before the world premiere of the new male fragrance from Hugo Boss in Barcelona: Tickets will dine and is very knowledgeable of the best restaurants area.

He studied philosophy and perhaps why, if the journalist is neglected, it may end up answering more questions than him. Always think before speaking and casts doubt on the air.

Pending Brand Allegiant , the next installment of the series that has given him fame, James has worked with Johnny Depp, Amber Heard and Cara Delevingne in London Fields and will face Richard Gere in Franny . Between shooting and shooting enjoying the music with his band, Shere Khan (yes, like the tiger of The Jungle Book ), friends, diving and boxing.

“I’m not too fieston and I have a large presence in the media,” says Theo James, and says his concern is to find time for family and friends.

What is the success from his point of view?
Be satisfied with what I do, myself and my career, but the problem in this modern world is that you just never be satisfied entirely is not it? I am constantly challenging me, even in my personal life. In the end, success is being able to enjoy the moment, and that, beyond the theories, there are not many people who get the truth. I hope to be one.

How is the man behind the actor?
I’m an old guy, very English: I’m not too fieston and I have a large presence in the media or on social networks. Not that I think that there’s anything wrong with them, I’m just not in Instagram, Twitter … What really matters to me are my friends. I kept many school and college. I also really matter Family (mine is quite extensive). I am a man of family values.

Does Studying philosophy has served for something in your career?
Not really. But I like to think that gives you the ability to see the world and question it. We live in a time when people tend to be very dogmatic with what you believe and say this is right or wrong without too many nuances. The philosophy helps you to think for yourself, beyond the preset. Questioning without aggressiveness is good; It helps everyone can come to different conclusions richer.

Attempt to pull natural and common sense.

Does the world need heroes?
The world will always need people who are willing to sacrifice for others genuine, real way. Acting is something else. We tell stories, not that we save anyone, except perhaps boredom.

Who seeks comment when you want an honest answer?
To my parents or my girlfriend. And to my friends. I always tell the truth.Sometimes they go! It would be nice to seep their views a little.

Music is important in your life. A song or style that define the present moment?
Difficult … Perhaps Miles Davis. A blues.

What is your biggest challenge?
Finding time to see family and friends and have a clear view of what is important and what is not. It’s easy to get lost amidst fun, glamor and all that.Material things, fame … all that is transitory.

It is sensitive to perfume a woman?
Of course. And usually like me; in women’s fragrances there is something addictive.

What you like about The Scent?
That smells good. It is both classic and contemporary and reminds me of some of my travels. It reflects a man who is comfortable with himself.

How was shooting the ad fragrance with Aronofsky?
Interesting! It has a particular way of seeing things and very clear ideas. He used planes very closed to emphasize the intimacy of the moment.
