Danse Lascive Angelos Créations Olfactives 2023

at first you just get a pure leather/faint bunring frankincense but with time the dry sweet rose and animalics come though making for a nice complex composition, the animalics here are smooth and fuzzy like smelling a dirty cat up close but the cat is yours so its not disgusting lol

in the end its a beautiful ashy leather and sweet rose frag.

Danse Lascive is a composition where Rose and Leather dance together till the end surrounded by a big cloud of Frankincense smoke. The smoke accord almost renders a spiritual flair to the perfume.
I'm not a huge rose lover and struggle with smoky perfumes, however, I find the balance Angelos struck here truly captivating. Here we have a smoky leather perfume where Rose is used carefully to balance the composition but never to dominate it. The leather accord makes me think of a black leather jacket, whereas the smoke accord comes across as churchy to me, and appears to be built on the olibanum note. I must say, it makes me think of an Oriental perfume rather than a dance floor. The rose is beautiful, and natural smelling with a slightly green and metallic facet given by the geranium. A masculine rose indeed. I don't quite pick up the tobacco. The vetiver is used to instill a dry texture to the leather. It feels like a dry, almost ashy perfume. In the dry down, the labdanum lends extra leatheriness and smokiness, while the animalics become increasingly assertive. The hyraceum gives a slight mineral nuance while pushing the composition into dangerous territory alongside the civet. As mentioned, I don't get the dance floor association. It makes me think of compositions such as Sultan Pasha's Ame Sombre and to a small extent, Sultan Leather Attar, two perfumes that I adore. Yet, it brings a different flavor to the table and behaves differently enough to find a welcoming place in the collection. One of the best Rose and Leather pairings that I have tried, and the beautiful Frankincense accord is the icing on top of the cake. This was a blind buy for me and a very successful one at that.

1990s.
Parties all night long, alcohol and smoke.
Dances, endless flirting.
Leather jackets, perfumes and intense smells.
These memories are the inspiration for Angelos in the creation of Danse Lascive.
Spray, let's dance!
Black leather, intense and cold with some rose-metallic aspects.
Smoky, dark and gloomy.
Now and then in the background there are hints of dark roses at times dare I say sweet.
Quickly everything, however, always returns to the main theme.
Leather and smoke; dancing an endless dance.

Danse lascive, sensual dance.

PS: raw material of the highest quality, including Irace absolutes, damask roses and more.

EDIT: Unfortunately after the second use it started making a weird reaction on my skin
