les cahiers secrets is a fun one because it tells a story of intimacy and eroticism through its weartime. the opening is a fresh, beautiful lily, sparkling woman just out of the shower, beginning her day knowing that it will end in pleasure. as it dries, it becomes more and more animalic and- as stated by others- fleshy. it remains powdery from start to finish, but that powderiness goes from something clean and timeless to something very sweaty, raw, and human as the cumin comes through. eventually, it settles into what I can only describe as the musk of a woman at the end of a long day.
I wore this one to a late night showing of teenage sex and death at camp miasma and I feel like it was the perfect choice (should've layered it with a blood frag, though- my fault)
