If ever there was a fragrance line that could bring out your alter ego, French surrealist cult favorite Etat Libre d\u2019Orange is it. You don\u2019t just wear Etat Libre d\u2019Orange; you experience it.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>We\u2019ve selected one of the most enigmatic and irresistible Etat Libre d\u2019Orange fragrances:  Hermann a Mes Cotes Me Paraissant Une Ombre<\/a>.  This cryptic title is taken from a Victor Hugo poem, and translates to \u201cBy my side, Hermann appeared as if he was my shadow.\u201d But in case you don\u2019t feel like memorizing a difficult line of French poetry just to rock a new scent, Hermann is all about conjuring your shadow side \u2014 warm and cold, bright and hazy, subtle and bold.<\/p>\n

The fragrance begins with a sheer burst of tangy blackcurrant buds, shot through with a shiver of galbanum\u2019s green menthol spice. The chill of the galbanum short-circuits the blackcurrant\u2019s fire, so the first impression presents the sharpness of spice with none of its heat. This surprising opening downshifts into a very luxe and smooth peppery rose and frankincense heart. But still \u2013 the contradictions continue: the frankincense gilds the classic romantic floral texture with a hint of ancient darkness. Hermann\u2019s heart is both romantic and dangerous, and not to be trusted. The base of sheer ambroxan and musky, herbal patchouli carries the shadowy imagery all the way through the dry down. Each individual note in this fragrance is paired with its evil twin opposite, that casts a long, mysterious shade over the composition. This is definitely a scent to wear for any event where your hidden side gets to come out and play for awhile.<\/p>\n
