Sgt. Pepper`s lonely hearts club band..

...we hope you will enjoy the show!

They've been going in and out of style
But they're guaranteed to raise a smile....

These lines from the Beatles classic fit this fragrance beautifully in my opinion. Yes, not only does it raise a smile, but the pepper almost makes you laugh, so provocatively does it play the first few bars of this fragrance. And the pepper is peppery! It doesn't like to give way and that doesn't matter at all. It surrounds you even more intensely with the incense note and the vanilla. The prune doesn't come through for me, but I also imagine it to be too sweet and the vanilla is totally enough of a counterpoint for me personally. Interesting is the camphor, which plays elegantly with the pepper together and accompanies the wearer various hours.

Etat libre d'orange is now one of the better known niche fragrances and certainly not everyone's cup of tea. "Love it or leave it!" It challenges and provokes again and again with its ambivalent creations, not only with its philosophy. Etienne de Swardt is an intelligent and absolutely creative mind and he has found the right perfumers for his brand. Perfumers who understand and can implement what de Swardt imagines.
Yes, my fourth Etat libre d'orange lands in the top spots again and will encourage me to make more purchases as soon as possible. I look forward to it.
