Another Game: Perfume for a portrait

Pick Each Scent for each Maestro

Ludwig Van Beethoven



Franz Liszt


Amadeus Wolfgang Mozart


George Frideric Handel


Johann Sebastian Bach


Antonio Vivaldi


Richard Wagner

All of these Geniuses all have different Temperaments not only in music but in Personality I like you to pic a scent Based on these qualities

I would recommend asking one of these at a time. As it stands, the challenge is simply too overwhelming!

Ok Ludwig Van Beethoven

Bump are we going to play this game anymore

Such tremendous passion and suffering. The common man who refused to be relegated to the servants quarters to eat while aristocrats listened to his music. He demanded and was accorded seating at the tables of kings or they got nothing from him in the way of musical composition. In a way, he really did not bow to anyone. Such steely determination and fiery strength of character. Incredibly formidable personality.
He was supposedly always madly "in love" with some woman.
I imagine him wearing something of equitable fire and depth and strength.

SANTOS by Cartier

This is like the 9th symphony to me in terms of scent.......

The elegant, handsome, celebrity virtuoso pianist with tremendous compositional talent.

Well he was definitely a lady's man. Perhaps the greatest pianist in history.

CHANEL EGOISTE PLATINUM by Chanel

Genius unparalleled. Music flowed through him as effortlessly as water flows to the sea. The flawless structure. The celestial sound. Icy glacial perfection cradled within a raging volcano of creativity.

Prismatic crystalline fire flashing from a perfect diamond in the afternoon sun.
EAU SAUVAGE by Christian Dior

Always filled with such pomp and circumstance. So dignified and royal. Such warmth in the magnificence and a feeling of joyous celebration.

DERBY by Guerlain

The great Baroque patriarch. Always so dour looking in all his paintings. But such energy and power...and so many children!
Such impeccable balance and variation in contrapuntal structure....such profoundly deep and austere beauty underpinning his works.

ENCRE NOIRE by Lalique

The Red Priest. Where would we be without him?

Such thrilling and unfettered exhilaration gushing from his creations! Such a feeling of overwhelmingly glorious passion!

So brilliantly dazzling and yet so refined.

JUBILATION FOR MEN by Amouage

The grandeur of western civilization captured in sound.

The bottomless depth and complexity of orchestration. The profound majesty of myth, and magic, and hallowed tales of legend.
VAN CLEEF & ARPELS POUR HOMME by Van Cleef & Arpels

Barbara Palmer, 1st Duchess of Cleveland, Countess of Castlemaine, also known as Lady Castlemaine (27 November [O.S. 17 November] 1640 9-October 1709) was an English courtesan and perhaps the most notorious of the many mistresses of King Charles II of England, by whom she had five children, all of whom were acknowledged and subsequently ennobled. Her influence was so great that she has been referred to as "The Uncrowned Queen."

Eva Braun 1912-1945
She May be the Mistress of the Most Evil man
in History but let try to look beyond that
This is all Picking a scent for that Person
And Personality this is not a Political
Statement,
Personality As to Braun’s personality she seemed to be a light head girl who enjoyed fashion, skiing and swimming; she also an appetite for romance novels. We’ll never know if she truly shared her husband’s political views; however she seemed not to be interested in the war or the running of Germany. In the home video’s Braun shot, most can be seen on Youtube, you can tell she truly did little home with Hitler.

How about water, since she seems to have had little substance?

Hester Prynne From the Scarlet Letter

She's such an arresting and slightly ambiguous figure. She's a funny mix of a truly liberated, defiantly sexual woman, but in the end a woman who accepts the penance that society imposed on her. And I don't know, I suppose she's an epitome of female predicaments. ... She is a mythic version of every woman's attempt to integrate her sexuality with societal demands,

All the contradictions of Hester Prynne — guilt and honesty, sin and holiness, sex and chastity — make her an enduring heroine of American literature. She is flawed, complex, and above all fertile. The idea of Hester Prynne, the good woman gone bad, is a cultural meme that recurs again and again — perhaps because we as a culture are still trying to figure out who Hester really is and how we feel about her.

Ambre Fetiche..Annick Goutal. For Hester Prynne)

Live Jazz Yves Saint Laurent for men

The Beatles


John Lennon was considered the leader, brash, bold, daring, could have a temper, but could also be very kind and warm. He was very witty, could play with words, and he was the most academic of them.

Paul McCartney was very optimistic, energetic, polite, the most proper, was a people person, and the most musically gifted.

George Harrison was quiet, introspective, had a dry sense of humor, unexpectedly witty, didn't put up with people bothering him, spiritual.

Ringo Starr was happy-go-lucky, followed along without complaint, a bit goofy, would make funny remarks, laid-back and quiet (for the most part).

Here they are....John: Air du Desert Marocain Andy Tauer (I'm sure he would have loved this)...Paul: Chanel Egoiste. George: Creed Aventus. Ringo: Thierry Muglar A*Men
Winston Churchill.....sorry, still can't insert pics)

Marlborough

Musician & Composer Ryuichi Sakamoto

I'd put him in Shiseido BASALA. Just seems like him.

In Greek mythology, Circe is a minor goddess of magic (or sometimes a nymph, witch, enchantress or sorceress). Circe was renowned for her vast knowledge of drugs and herbs. Through the use of magical potions and a wand she transformed her enemies, or those who offended her, into animals.

What perfume would the ancient sorceress wear?
