Sometimes I would venture from my sepulchre to the jazz of night Paris, where having gathered the colours, I would think them over in front of the fire. I could be seen walking through a funeral corridor of my house and descending down a black spiral of steep stairs; rushing underground to Montmartre, all impatience to see the fiery rubies of the Moulin Rouge cross. I wondered thereabouts, then bought a ticket to watch frenzied delirium of feathers, vulgar painted lips and eyelashes of black and blue.
Naked feet, and thighs, and arms, and breasts were being flung on me from bloody-red foam of translucent clothes. The tuxedoed goatees and crooked noses in white vests and toppers would line the hall, with their hands posed on canes. Then I found myself in a pub, where the liqueurs were served on a coffin (not a table) by the nickering devil: “Drink it, you wretched!” Having drunk, I returned under the black sky split by the flaming vanes, which the radiant needles of my eyelashes cross-hatched. In front of my nose a stream of bowler hats and black veils was still pulsing, foamy with bluish green and warm orange of feathers worn by the night beauties: to me they were all one, as I had to narrow my eyes for insupportable radiance of electric lamps, whose hectic fires would be dancing beneath my nervous eyelids for many a night to come.
White gardenia, ambergris bouquet, lavender fougere, orange blossom, melissa, tobacco flower, coriander, ebony wood, ylang ylang, absinthe and aged whiskey.
A festive, dazzling blend, layered in mystery and intrigue. Patchouli, ambergris, carnation and orange blossom.
We shall swim out to that brooding reef in the sea and dive down through black abysses to Cyclopean and many-columned Y’ha-nthlei, and in that lair of the Deep Ones we shall dwell amidst wonder and glory for ever.
A great undersea metropolis located below Devil’s Reef. A swirling, lightless, effervescent scent: the deepest marine notes with bergamot, eucalyptus and foamy ambergris.

In the bottle it reminded me of Humanite, but instead of caramelized vanilla there was cocoa. The florals are in the back and I smelled mostly cocoa and white peach. Yummy!
Wet on the skin it was about the same, except the cocoa backed down some.
Now here is where the fun starts. This one morphed quite a lot on me and I was almost a bit confused when I smelled it 10 minutes after the application and then 30 minutes after that.
When it dried down it started to act as all other chocolate scents on me; it gave of this wierd scent. It wasn’t overwhelming nor foul, but it saddened me a bit. The honey comes in and saves the day, it mellowed down the wierd scent as it portrayed itself more. The floral backs away as well as the peach. The scent has a saltiness to it, which I think is from the ambergris.
A little while after the drydown and the cocoa as well as the peach portrays themselves again. Jesus Christ, this one changed. I’ve never had a bottle that changed so much back and forth. Now the blend is beautiful, no note take over the other. It has a fullness to it, a sweetness to it, a saltiness to it (not overwhelming).. I do fancy this one.
