Description
Frédéric Malle's French Lover Eau De Parfum has the quintessential qualities of a men's classic. It is a sort of skin enhancer, as the smell of patchouli, incense, tree moss and cedar mingle with one's natural odour. Created by perfumer Pierre Bourdon, this suave base also serves as the cornerstone of a massive dose of angelica, galbanum and pimento. Bois d'Orage (which translates in English into thunder wood), is a dramatic, almost Wagnerian composition that expresses the contained sophistication of the effortlessly elegant man. Pierre Bourdon earned a degree in political science before changing directions and enrolling in the Roure Bertrand Dupont school in Grasse. He then became the only protégé of celebrated perfumer Edmond Roudnitska. Today, Bourdon is considered one of the most innovative perfumers of his generation. Combining beauty, simplicity and convenience, the 30ml spray offers Frédéric Malle's signature uncompromising perfume in a compact size whilst drawing aesthetic inspiration from 20th century conceptual art and modernist design. In the spirit of Bauhaus, form follows function: a simple black cylinder in high shine polyethylene plastic with a matte anodised metal centre and magnetic cap. A most practical host for perfumes, both at home and on the go. Top notes: pimiento, angelica, juniperBase notes: patchouli, vetiver, frankincense£35 per 10.00ml
