Hermann by my side seemed like a shadow to me, so translates this Etat Libre d’Orange eau de parfum, a scent that encourages you to step into your own darkness and face the parts of your essence you supress. We could talk about the fruits, flowers and heady woods that form the top and middle notes, but its the recessive base notes that are glorified here, slowly rising to the light as you meander through the olfactory profile, revealing themselves as vetiver, patchouli and ambroxan.

Top notes: Black pepper, Galbanum, Blackcurrant
Heart notes: Incense, Geosmine, Rose absolute
Base notes: Vetiver, Patchouli, Ambroxan
