Foulard Perfumer's Workshop 1979

Macho/Genteel Dichotomy
This obscurity comes from the same house that brought us the classic Tea Rose along with Samba and its zillion flankers; an impressively rendered macho-aldehydic, zippy herbs-n- leather IBQ driven musky juggernaut. It rivals, if not exceeds, the chutzpah of such open-collar studs as Balenciaga Portos or Marbert Man, and perhaps even foreshadows King Kouros.
What's amusing is that this is named Foulard, a silk scarf as dandy as an ascot, which would be donned exactly within that wedge of an open collar! This officially challenges my association with these striking, dauntless masculines of the era. The dichotomy has me noticing the gentler side of the bristly green mugwort and biting galbanum. The castoreum is a furry old bean using a walking stick along to emphasize its swagger.
There's even this gin-like quality in the heart of Foulard, pungent and refreshing juniper berries swimming among jocular manliness, bobbing around, washed over by man-musk. If it hasn't occurred to you already, the eroticism and sensuality of 'fumes, whether or latent or blatant, so fascinates me. This exploration of male sexuality is underlined by scents like Foulard that shows a hornier side past the kabuki theater exterior of propriety. What a smashing discovery!
