Smells like Teen Spirit
The documentary 'Montage of Heck' about the musician Kurt Cobain, who died in 1994, drew my attention to this fragrance. In a scene in the bathroom of her former Los Angeles apartment, Courtney Love is spraying the perfume on herself, you can see the black bottle. Since I'm only recently more interested in fragrances, I couldn't tell exactly which perfume it is.
After a short research and interviews Courtney Love gave to the blog 'into the gloss' among others, it was clear that it is 'Fracas' by Robert Piguet. Her signature fragrance. In addition, she claimed to have worn 'Quelques Fleurs by Houbigant' often in those days with Kurt, and therefore could not wear it anymore. Should be similar with Fracas but good. My personal opinion about Courtney Love is a different matter.
Since I come from the village and the next Douglas doesn't carry this fragrance, I went to Stuttgart to a small perfume shop. The saleswoman said "women with dark hair and light skin often wear this fragrance". What does that say now? All right.
I liked the smell right away. It was something new and different for me. I smelled again and again while strolling through the city centre. After 4 months and thinking about it for a long time, I ordered the fragrance. Currently I wear it also quite gladly.
Kurt Cobain smelled this fragrance almost every day. Because of the strong silage he probably knew when Courtney came home or was nearby. I think he also liked to put something in his clothes. I can imagine the mixture of the scent, a glowing Malboro Gold and red lipstick on her very well. You can see the bottle in a bathroom cabinet in a picture from their former apartment in Los Angeles that they left 'littered'
