‘A Woody, Floral fragrance evoking mutual love, imagined by Amélie Bourgeois for D’Orsay. A.R. nurtures a relationship of balance between ultra-feminine and ultra-masculine, blending the delicacy of Iris and Cardamom with the strength of Vetiver and Cedar. Like a story between an unshaven adventurer and an excutive woman. It takes us far from the beaten track.’ – D’Orsay
Les Ombres Fantastiques has a lot of the notes in common with J’ai L’air De Ce Que Je Suis. Whereas the one goes more floral, this one is a slightly more simple woody scent.
It’s a fresh woody scent, with cardamom creating an uplifting opening on top of cedarwood and iris. If you’re into fragrances like Diptyque Tam Dao, D.S. & Durga Radio Bombay or even Creed Royal Oud, this one is worth checking out. I like it, but I do prefer J’ai L’air De Ce Que Je Suis.
