Laetitia Rancé 1795 2008

You have acquired a perfume from the house of Rancé, and we congratulate you on that, as we have a rich tradition and have been delighting our customers with the finest scents for 400 years, and since 1795 we have dedicated ourselves entirely to perfumery. If you are expecting something sweet here, you are mistaken; please turn to a gourmet temple or directly to the Oracle of Delphi, but since the priestesses there are constantly smoking something, that might mislead you as well.
Therefore, we provide some important application tips:
1. Please apply the fragrance directly over your pulse points. Do not rub your forearms together, as that generates heat and destroys the fragrance molecules; moreover, it can lead to a puff that disassembles the slightly bitter aromas of our citrus fruits. Thank you.
2. To support the development of the heart note and to give roses, magnolias, and nutmeg enough space, we recommend throwing open the window and waving your arms towards the street. In doing so, you may inspire passersby to a spontaneous flash mob. Please play "Joyful, Joyful, We Adore Thee" in the background.
3. When the base note appears - and that takes a few hours - you can sing "A little resin must be!" We did not add powder, as we were lacking musk and iris.

We wish you great success with our creation, and in case of doubt, please consult the Oracle of Delphi.
