Francesca Bianchi Tyger Tyger - 1.5 ml

Francesca Bianchi Tyger Tyger is an oriental essence for men and women. In this composition Francesca Bianchi sought the perfect balance between two opposing elements and the expression of their contrasting juxtaposition. He had in mind a post-apocalyptic condition, in which the traces of a highly sophisticated and refined civilization survived in the dark and fearful condition of a collapsed and destructured world. Blake's Tyger embodies both qualities I wanted to represent: sublime and irresistibly attractive on the one hand and terrible and frightening on the other. The “fearful symmetry,” a character attributed to the tiger by William Blake, aptly represents this opposition of wondrous perfection and terror. The perfume is built around a narcotic white flower accord with sweet-fruity facets, which also includes a Tuberose absolute, as a primadonna style, protagonist of a dramatic opera, is the best example of refined civilization of a bygone world; in opposition to this, the base notes feature different types of woods, with some burnt and leathery qualities, referring to a post-apocalyptic scenario of destruction, mystery and darkness. The result of these parts – which wouldn't work individually – is a crisp, contrasting fragrance that gives me an exciting feeling of highly dramatic sophistication – the kind of contrasted feeling that anything attractive arouses in me. | More Information Olfactory Notes: Narcotic Flowers, Honey, Peach Jam, Patchouli, Sandalwood, Oakmoss, Oud, Leather, Heliotropin.
