La Fin du Monde

Inspiration
La Fin du Monde asks a question about the end of days with a sense of humour. We know the apocalyptic visions, the Mayan calendar, the millennium panic and the films from Dr. Strangelove to Melancholia. According to Etat Libre d'Orange, one question remains unanswered: how will the end of the world smell? The fragrance offers a playful, unexpected answer.

The Signature of La Fin du Monde
The opening of popcorn, black pepper and roasted sesame is warm, nutty and slightly salty, as if watching the last film. In the heart, freesia, cumin seed and iris absolute make it powdery and skin-like. A gunpowder accord, ambrette seed and sandalwood then form a smoky, soft and musky base. Gourmand, but dry and intriguing rather than sweet.

What our ParfuMaria team thinks of this fragrance
One of the most original scents in the collection. The popcorn sounds like a joke, yet on the skin it becomes an elegant, powdery iris.
