Heya Fumies,
Life is a roller coaster. Jin and I had the most amazing trip around Europe last month. One of the highlights was catching up with Nicolas and Enno. They are the guys behind Le Galion and Aether Parfums. We took them out to Jin’s favourite Korean restaurant in Paris because we love them. Clever, funny, handsome and really passionate men about their fragrance, lives, love; just about everything. Seeing them is always a joy.
Methaldone by Aether 2017
Methaldone by Rodrigo Flores-Roux
Fragrantica gives these featured accords:
Metallic notes, incense, amber, woody notes, resins, musk
The Aether perfumes line is dedicated to using only captured molecules and they have done a very interesting job with this one. Methaldone is created to the brief of recreating the scent of hot metal.
My nose smells sparklers and cooking popcorn. So that’s my experience and these two leading images last in my head for the first hour or so until the fragrance warms through with resins and sweet amber coming up from underneath and gradually taking over. Personally I am loving the way it smells and the way it lingers so tenaciously, especially on clothes and you’ll need to wash them before the scent goes. My washing basket has never smelt so good.
As you can see in the pic I’ve already used quite a lot of my bottle, it’s YUMMY!
I wore Methaldone last weekend to a party where it got 3 unsolicited compliments, which rarely happens for me in party situations. One friend coming in for an extra cuddle so they could smell it more. So Methaldone is a WIN!
Surprisingly for something that sounds so out there it is remarkably wearable and would be a superb go-to scent for everyday wearings.
Below we have a fab giveaway, thanks to Nicolas & Enno, get to it
