État Libre d'Orange - Putain des Palaces

The Whore of the Palace hides a secret under her billowing skirts. At first she seems innocent, with a swirl of pink lipstick and violet dusting powder and sugar-coated almonds. But then a slightly dirty salted lily moves into place, and underlined with a pinch of cumin, calls to mind the scent of lightly used undergarments and intimate corners of the female body. It is French - oh yes, it is indisputably French, this juxtaposition of pale, sugared flower petals and the underside of a heated woman. Very sexy in a surprising and subtle way.
