Histoires de Parfums Characters1740 Marquis de Sade

The Eau de Parfum Spray 1740 Marquis de Sade from the renowned Characters collection by Histoires de Parfums offers an olfactory journey into the 18th century. This creation is characterised by a dark, complex structure that artfully interweaves woody and spicy facets. It opens with an interesting tension between the citrus freshness of bergamot and the characteristic, liqueur-like notes of davana. This is followed by a spicy heart in which coriander and cardamom unfold and lend depth to the arrangement. However, the fragrance's true signature is revealed in the profound base note. Powerful leather accords dominate here, accompanied by smoky birch and resinous labdanum. Earthy patchouli nuances and the warmth of immortelle round off the profile, while a hint of vanilla provides a subtle finishing touch. The essence is packaged in a striking bottle that is visually reminiscent of the spine of a book and emphasises the concept of a fragrance library. Made in France stands for precision craftsmanship in the selection of ingredients.

In order for men's perfume to really come into its own, it is always sprayed very sparingly and directly onto the skin. The chosen fragrance is quickly released through body heat. If you use a spray bottle, the distance should be around 20 cm. The fine spray mist is not rubbed off and dries on the skin. As the spray mist rises from the bottom upwards, the skin is always perfumed from the bottom upwards. Ideally, the body should be prepared with an odourless body lotion before perfuming. The fragrances in the men's perfume will cling to the lipids in the lotion, ensuring a longer-lasting fragrance experience.
