Etat Libre d`Orange - Frustration

A perfume is a mixture. A mixture like miscellanea that clash between words and materials to explain just a little, without explaining too much, the why of a perfume. Frustration. Frustration, the eldest daughter of renunciation and the sister of perfume, since perfume proceeds like frustration in the game of love. It gives by taking up, a fullness never satisfied, an enjoyment started but never achieved, an infinite movement of desire without completion, without apotheosis, an instillation that excites, seduces, lulls, dominates and annoys. Frustration. Frustration, a perfume to awaken the strong child in the fragile adult or the fragile child in the too-strong adult, a perfume for a regressive journey to the dominion of vanilla, rum and vetiver.

Amber
Refreshed by aromatic or citrus facets, Oriental scents draw their richness and sophistication from precious substances such as amber, resin, tobacco, spices, exotic woods and animal notes. Fragrances in this family are creamy, addictive and linger on the skin.

    Sweet seduction
    This scent is sexy in a bottle! It's sweet, creamy and romantic. It reminds me of a BDK fragrance. It's just so yummy!

    I'm trying to like this
    There is a note of burning rubber here that I can't get past. The scent changes after a couple of hours to be more pleasant. However, I still get whiffs of the burning rubber opener, and it's pretty awful.

    Spice Cabinet
    This started very peppery and powdery. Actually, I didn't get much cinnamon. As it dries down, it smells like putting your nose up to the vanilla extract while the smells still waft out of the spice cabinet. Something nutty is in there... but it's not the chestnut explosion other reviews had me believing it would be. Maybe like the peanut butter was left open in said cabinet. I do like this, though I don't see myself ever buying a full bottle.
