Etat Libre d'Orange - Afternoon of a Faun
Speaking of rose, this homage to a classic soapy aldehydic chypre is fantastic. Of course I'm also a sucker for anything with a ballet theme, in this case the inspiration was a 1912 ballet performance, that was a little too racy for the time. Now in the 21st century there's nothing race going on here, the aldehydes aren't too dirty, and even the immortelle is far enough in the background to just give it a slight darker tinge. Overall I'm just getting a bright Marseille style soap vibe which I'm very much enjoying tonight.
