A flying visit to paradise....or: The "olfactory" ass-kicking
For a brief moment, I feel like I'm in paradise.
For a brief moment, I think there might be a chance to reconcile myself with "zeitgeist" and synthetics after all....
The conceptual idea behind MEMOIRES DU FUTURE is to pay tribute to the "great fragrances" of the 20s to 40s, unite them with modern (synthetic) perfumery and bring them to new (zeitgeisty) life.
MEMOIRES DU FUTURE is a floral fragrance bedded on a chypre base.
So far so good. I should actually like this sight unseen. And it does.....at first.
For about 5 minutes I revel in "MEMOIRES" .... then - all of a sudden - the fragrance shows me the "olfactory" stink finger and transports me with an "olfactory" Ar**tritt in the "FUTURE"......was in this case the laboratory would be.....
All the beautiful blooms are swept away, buried or outright destroyed by a landslide of aldehyde....
From this stage on, I lack the technical chemical vocabulary to further describe the scent progression.
It just smells artificially chemical and sterile.
You can definitely like that. It is not now so that it would smell repulsive...
I personally, however, will not at all happy with this concept.
