What do reviewers say about The Afternoon of a Faun and Fin de Siecle?
A chypre that challenges expectations. The immortelle opens with herbal, slightly medicinal warmth, almost bitter at first contact. Oakmoss and myrrh anchor the drydown.The Afternoon of a Faun
Civet and rose is a pairing most houses would never commit to. The animalic note isn't a whisper here, it's the point. This is what a rose smells like when it stops trying to be liked.Fin de Siecle
