Description
Papillon Artisan Perfumes Salome Eau de Parfum is a heady mix of decadent florals and lusty animalics. An explosive bouquet of indolic jasmine sets a sensual opening scene. A seductive veil of Turkish rose and carnation rests upon an almost indecent display of castoream, hyraceum and musks. Cumin adds an alluringly deep aroma of sensual embodiment – sweet, sweaty loins engaged in carnal pleasure. This niche scent’s reputation precedes itself among lovers of erotically charged oriental scents. An elegant balance of materials from expert nose, Liz Moores, prevents the perfume from becoming aggressively seductive, meaning Salome wearers make themselves known in a social setting, rather than earning themselves a reputation.
Salome’s velvety animalic facets and rich, powdery florals give it a vintage and honeyed feel, the kind of scent worn with furs by 1920s flappers or early Hollywood femme fatals. The silent movie siren, Anna Nazimova’s, rendition of the eponymous seductress in 1923’s Salome is perhaps the most evocative visual representation of this opulent niche perfume. Plush and unashamedly erotic, Salome by Papillon Artisan Perfumes captures the imagination. A confident display of top quality ingredients such as sustainably sourced African hyraceum sets the tone in terms of luxury. This sumptuous niche perfume is a fitting tribute to the infamous biblical princess. With its richly indolic and animalic notes embodying transgressive sexual allure, Salome cloaks the body like a second skin.
All Papillon Artisan Perfumes are genderless and androgynous, to be worn by anyone who enjoys them. All Papillon perfumes are cruelty free and are not tested on animals.
