Pastoral Coolness
The most well-kept horse stable in an affluent equestrian town, L'Heure Fougeuse IV reminds me of a drive I made through the hamlet of Waccabuc, NY this past weekend. A rural suburb in Westchester County, there were sloping hills, palatial homes, the smell of fresh mown grass and hay filling the air. Each street sign is wooden, painted white, in a colonial shape, and the country club emanates insularity.

Yet I found an affection for it, refusing to peel back the layers and just accepting it as it is. It was more the spaces in between, consisting of the trees and dells and the pastoral coolness. L'Heure Fougeuse IV captures this very pastoral coolness, fresh yet distant, a tea house nestled on a back road, lavender sachets, the smell of oiled saddles and wooden interiors, even of clean white linen.

Underneath a soft suede layer, the pulse of musky warm skin and an accelerating heart beat of passion, tempered by a seal of decorum. A vetiver soon echoes the hay and grasses, and the countryside charm fades into twilight. This has easily become a favorite from Mathilde Laurent. Rest assured, one need not be a member of a country club to walk the nature trails of Waccabuc: all are welcome.

A unique, complex, gem.
Just when I think one note rules the rest I'm forced to re-smell it and no. Maybe I have to give it a bit more wearings, under different environments. But one thing I can say is the scent of sandalwood haunts me in the late dry down. Does anyone else get that??

Also, this is so unique that one would have to be confident in his/her (unisex/male leaning, imo) olfactory tastes in order to confidently wear this. Or else you'll just walk around trying to decipher the subtle cues of others wondering how they're receiving you. Lol.

In my case, this smells so unbelievably good, to me, I could care less if someone didn't like it. It really brings me joy and comfort applying this.

My two cents until next time...

Based off the ratings it would appear my nose is broke. I find this fragrance to be exceptionally appealing. Very elegant & refined. TBC
