I see that this brand follows a similar approach as the one Frederic Malle does,a kind of curation work of diverse perfumers. They act intermediating the final user and the perfumer, trying to make that ideas previously rejected or unpublish target who might be able to appreciate them. If i think it's a good idea at the same time i'm kind of critic about it too - for some reason i question, why were those projects rejected? For being groundbreaking, avant-garde, or just for being unfinished or maybe they were missing something? I have the second impression wiht the first FR i test, the 6th one - Lime Absolue. Conceived by Karine Chevallier, it's the encounter of lime and vetiver, but what else more? There is no much more left, and this disappoints me. It seems to me pretty but crude at the same time and with such a basic structure that it keeps me wondering where i have smell this before; The lime at the opening is great, refresing and a little bit sweet, the vetiver is that variety that smells woody and leathery or rubbery and there is a little bit of milky fig and milky sandalwood, and whole at the intermediate notes. The woody synth aura makes me see it perfect for Comme des Garcons, but it's like one of their unfinished projects abandoned at the development. It's quite good the way it's, but it could have been much better.
