L'anarchiste. Caron.


Perfumer: Richard Fraysse.


Countains: petitgrain, mandarin, cedar leaves, clove, sandal, vetiver, cedarwood, musk.


Grotesque.
A vampire or a serial killer (like Dexter) parfum.
This is the most unpleasant juice I ever tried (nothing to do with the sublime Secretions Magnifiques).This is really weird and unique on its own pugnenty. Nasty.
To my nose the mixture of petitgrain, cloves, a hidden geranium note and also incense, results as a distinctive, terrible odor of metallic blood.


L’anarchiste opens quite unsettled. There’s a uncommon floral burst of orange blossom splashed by sweet mandarin. It’s actually not bad at all this, but the worst part is about to come.
After three seconds, the perfume goes dark, pitch black. It only reamin a gothic aura of strange bronze-metallic cloves. This is the only way I can describe it.
It’s actually odd but appealing. Not bad. Unpleasant but acceptable.


30mt after apply. The sillage is monster and I can hardly breath. I have an instant headache.
The whole scent is getting just about pure blood: Sticky, unpleasant dried metallic blood.
The petitgrain stys around giving a sweet twist that make the formula even more disgusting.

No cedar, no vetiver, nothing organic. Just an unsettled aroma of bronze and blood.

There’s a flash inside my head: London. 1925. A lady has just been brutally murdered on the streets. Her body lies in the dirty wet pavement. She has been stabbed to death with a bronze knife that remains fixed in her stomach.
She had on the right hand a bouquet of petitgrain, that now is all over the place next to her body.
She lies on her own blood, wile its forming a purple puddle in the greasy soil.

This is horrible.
Terrible, terrible.
I can enjoy "different scents", but this one has just cross the line so far.
Argh!
The dry down gets much more settled but unbalanced, unpleasant still, with hint of musk.

Coup de Fouet. Caron.


Perfumist: Michel Morsetti.


Countains: carnation, black pepper, clove, oppoponax, peru balm,myrrh, incense.


A curious reverse pyramid in this perfume.
Opens fiery and spicy, with overdose of Peru balm, clove and carnation blossoms.
Until here I only get the same opening of Carnation by Comme des Garçons, with loads of pepper increased.

After the sharp initial burst of the black pepper, the carnation reigns in a cristaline way.
Carnation blossoms go sweet and heady, into a layers and layers of delicate dewy and translucent petals.
As quickly as carnation appears, the next intruder brings an additional layer of spicy warmth: smoky note of incense start to sourround it all in delicate. Opoponax and myrrh give presence on a shy dry down, fadding off the flower accord and frost the black pepper.

The perfume is quite umbalanced at start, but develop into something light and magical, mostly ethereal and feminine.
A must have for carnation lovers
Sillage is glorious.
