État Libre d'Orange - Vierges et Toreros

The clash of two forces of nature - a virginal tuberose fighting an animalic cow-hide leather in a mirror image of the movements between bullfighter and bull. The shockingly sweet innocence of the white flower is grasped in the sweaty embrace of the leather, and finally wrestled down to the ground where it lies panting, in an arena smelling of dust, spilled blood, and metal fragments. A musky aroma of animal fat, hide, and hair closes in on the fallen flower, turning it quickly from an innocent white flower into a dirty, soiled one. A stunning, proud, and slightly difficult fragrance, Vierges et Toreros is for those who value originality and boldness in their perfumes.
