SMOKY GOURMAND WITH WHISKY AND CHOCOLATE

Inspired by Oscar Wilde's The Picture of Dorian Gray, Dorian’s Spleen is a scent of addiction, seduction, and a slow, elegant decay. It is a composition that moves between pleasure and emptiness, where the lavish gradually darkens and takes on something more unsettling.

The scent opens with a rich whisky accord, dry, warm, and immediately intoxicating. Soon, coffee, burnt caramel, and dark chocolate emerge, building a heart that feels both rich, bitter, and sensual.
But beneath the gourmand surface, there is always something unsettling. Smoke, ash, and guaiac wood introduce a darker tone, while vanilla deepens the composition, letting it slide towards something increasingly narcotic, still, and slightly eerie.

Dorian’s Spleen is a scent that first seduces, then slowly unbalances. Beautiful, decadent, and hard to resist, like an echo of pleasure that has lingered too long.
