Details on Etat Libre d’Orange Frustration

Frustration is a perfume that invites you on a regressive journey through memories of childhood, where the strong child meets the fragile adult. It's a sophisticated blend that explores the delicate balance between comfort and complexity, weaving together gourmand warmth with spicy sophistication. The composition masterfully combines the sweetness of vanilla and rum with earthy vetiver and warm chestnut wood, creating a fragrance that embodies both nostalgia and modern elegance.

How does Etat Libre d’Orange Frustration smell?

Opens with a warm blend of spicy cinnamon and rich rum, accented by subtle cumin. The heart reveals a luxurious combination of vanilla absolute and cistus, creating a creamy, sweet core. The base notes showcase bourbon vetiver and chestnut wood, complemented by vinylguaiacol, offering a sophisticated woody-smoky finish.

Spicy warmth with character

Rum, cinnamon, and vanilla define this fragrance. Despite sweet notes, it surprises with striking spiciness, pleasant depth, and a confident aura. Warm, full of character, and exciting until the end.

Okay

Rum with cinnamon and caraway. Vanilla slightly in the background. It doesn't smell bad, but unfortunately, it's not for me.
