ghoulnextdoor Report post Posted May 8 The Acrobats is the flushed exuberance of juicy-peachy apricot, its delicate brightness made unsettling with amber’s dimly glowing resins and the bitter tang of tannins. I don’t know if I am unduly influenced by the heart-rending painting upon which it was based, but it really does smell like a sweet memory tinged with unbearable sorrow.

icecreamcone Report post Posted December 8 Bright fruity scent that’s a bit murky (something in the depths). No citrus notes listed but citrus-lovers might still enjoy as the color feels deep orange or red. Gustavo Doré painted The Acrobat in two versions. France has the brighter version where this perfume label comes from, but I’ve seen the darker version in a museum in the US. I spent a lot of time standing in front of it studying it. It’s very unsettling. I think Bpal did a good job making something beautiful with a hint of despair whispering in the background. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
