Scent story

To me this smells like a grand ballroom an hour before the guests arrive — cognac breathing in crystal, marigolds and narcissus banked along the walls, and then the flowers take over completely: tuberose, jasmine, violet, ylang-ylang, rose, orange blossom, a whole conservatory at full volume. Incense and leather thread through the middle like a secret, and tonka, amber and vanilla gild the base. It is magnificent, dense, and utterly uncompromising. Private Collection means private for a reason. Not for beginners — beginners stay away.
