Rouge Avignon PHAEDON

ENG: When I was a little girl I did not dream to be a princess as most of my playmates did. I dreamed to be a witch. Not the ugly one, humpbacked and with a big nose, but a beautiful little witch with long red hair. I used to wear long green velvet dresse with some golden ornaments, I decorated my hair with wild red roses and rode my black horse in deep woods. I dreamed to understand the language of birds, to speak with animals, and I used the power of herbs, trees and stones for make magic. I was free, rebel and happy...
When I smelt Rose Avignon, I smelt the perfume of this beautiful dream. It's a perfume of dark gothic rose, enriched with exotic hinoki wood, smoky vetiver and milky warm sandalwood, softened by sweet raspberry and cacao bud and rounded by black truffle. These notes are so well blended, it's not too dry and incensy, not too jammy sweet, not too rosy....Rouge Avignon enchanted me and took me back to my childhood's fairytale...

Rouge Avignon was created by Pierre Guillaume on 2013.

Description from Phaedon's site: "A Gothic composition, as opulent and dark as the shadow of the Papal Palace looming over nations and centuries… The carmine red of the papal stole is conjured with a fleshy, spicy rose facetted by ylang-ylang and raspberry. In the heart notes, waxed woods, cocoa bean, black truffle and earthy smoky vetiver lure us into the private apartments of the Supreme Pontiff. Gilt moldings and religious ornaments glint in the firelight while gray tendrils of smoke rise from a censer burning sandalwood chips mixed with musk and amber."

IT: Da bambina non sognavo di essere una principessa come la maggior parte delle mie amichette, ma desideravo di essere una strega. Comunque non una strega brutta, gobbata, con il naso all'acquila dotato di maestosi brufoli pelosi, ma una bellissima piccola streghetta ai capelli rossi e lunghissimi decorati con le rose selvatiche,  con un abito di velluto verde bosco ricamato con l'oro. Il mio amico, il cavallo nero, mi portava nei boschi profondi dove conobbi tutti i segreti degli animali e della natura selvaggia, usavo il potere dell'erbe e delle pietre per fare gli incantesimi... Ero libera, ribelle e felice ...
Qualche anno fa, quando ho sentito Rose Avignon di Phaedon (di Pierre Guillaume), ho sentito il profumo di questo bellissimo sogno. È un profumo di rosa oscura gotica, arricchita con del legno esotico di hinoki, il vetiver e del saondalo caldo e latteo; addolcito con il lampone succoso e del cacao polveroso; tutto arrotondato con il tartufo nero...
Rouge Avignon mi ha letteralmente incantato.
