I'm not really keen on men wearing perfumes. It's just a bit wrong! I don't find it sexy. I prefer essential oils - patchouli is nice.

In a Tim Burton movie, you know it's going to be something unusual, or a bit mad. Something "other."

I am a dreamer. Seriously, I'm living on another planet.

Success is very ephemeral. You depend entirely on the desire of others, which makes it difficult to relax.

Don't be ashamed of who you are, embrace who you are.

I have Algerian, Turkish, Swedish, Spanish blood: I feel like a citizen of the world. Life and cinema don't have borders.

I'd rather be thought as an international actress rather than a French one. Because I don't know what's coming up for me, my ambition is not to be typecast. So I'm working on my English accent, as well as my American one. I don't want to be like 'Okay, I'm French, and I want to succeed in Hollywood!'
