Kleins

Fougere. Created 2006. Perfumer Olivia Giacobetti. Hot and cold, spicy and soft, Fou D'Absinthe is a perfume-paradox, olfactory craziness, an embodiment of absolute freedom of mind, of the desire to break taboos and to have courage to realize one’s most daring dreams. Inspired by Absinthe, the decadent drink of choice of poets and artists, this addictive potion is an aromatic explosion of green, slightly bitter Absinthe, tingling spirit of Angelica and Blackcurrant Buds. The hot-cold sensation is enhanced by the alluring contrast of chilly Star Anise and fiery four-spices mix of Pepper, Clove, Nutmeg and Ginger. It is carried all through to the base notes where dry Pine Needles mingle with the sweet, Balsamic scent of Labdanum, the fruity sap of Fir Balsam and the deep, tantalizing earthiness of Patchouli.
