My mother absolutely adored it; she still has the empty bottle and I’m convinced she would recognise it instantly, even though it’s now almost impossible to find. It reminds me of one of the first AXE deodorants (I can’t quite recall whether it was the Agreste or the Sandal version) that were sold back then. On another note, this deliberate denigration of our past is the result of a relentless campaign by certain political and intellectual elites who believe nothing from history can be good—be it dictatorships, monarchies, companies, art, or culture itself. Whenever the past is mentioned, it is only to be belittled, associated with adjectives like ‘stale’, ‘musty’, or ‘grandpa smell’, with the countryside dismissed as ‘paletolandia’. This is what they have sown, and the harvest we reap is ignorance, forgetfulness, and destruction, as La Dame de Noir so aptly remarked.
This was my grandmother’s perfume, and I’ve finally managed to get hold of a 25ml bottle. I had no memory of its scent due to the passage of years, and it is so distinctive that it’s difficult to describe. There’s a floral vanilla note, as if geranium and heliotrope were blended together; I don’t care for those flowers on their own, but they work beautifully with the vanilla. It brings to mind Shalimar not because of a direct similarity, but for that intriguing mix of vanilla, citrus, and florals. It also smells like the initial phase of Brut; in fact, I can detect anise in Flor de Blasón even though it’s not listed on the label. It’s a fragrance from another era that could still exist today, but Myrurgia discontinued almost everything. What a pity, as it would surely have its niche. It has moderate sillage yet a strong presence, embodying that bygone era which is now the holy grail. It’s not for everyone and certainly not a good blind buy, but if you can grab it at a ridiculous price, do get yourself one.
