‘Flaming Creature is a narcotic, hazy ode in fragrance to Flaming Creatures (1963) by American director Jack Smith (1932-1989), an entrancingly disjointed film inspiring this scent’s smoldering freshness. It produces subtle smoke, while scenes of wilting jasmine flash before your eyes, encouraging a surrender to its flickering hallucination.’ – Marissa Zappas
