Etat Libre d'Orange - Frustration

Frustration Eau de Parfum by Etat Libre d'Orange is a bold, expressive fragrance designed to encapsulate the raw and intense emotions that arise from unfulfilled desires and passions. Launched as part of the brand's commitment to creating evocative, narrative-driven scents, Frustration seeks to transform inner turmoil into an olfactory journey, inviting the wearer to embrace the tension between desire and denial.

The fragrance opens with rich, spicy top notes that ignite the senses, immediately evoking a sense of urgency and longing. As it develops, warm and sensual accords of vanilla, rum, and sandalwood emerge, deepening the experience and providing a comforting yet provocative contrast to the initial sharpness. These luxurious, resinous layers create a complex balance between pleasure and frustration, capturing the push and pull of passion and restraint.

The composition is designed to be both captivating and daring, lingering on the skin with a smoky, seductive dry-down that leaves an unforgettable trail. Frustration is for those who revel in intense emotions, seeking a fragrance that embodies both the tension and release of life’s most profound desires. It is a scent that challenges the boundaries of pleasure and frustration, making it perfect for individuals who are unafraid to explore the deeper, more conflicted aspects of their inner world.
