A Nice Scent. There comes a day when a house of parfum must confront an essential stylistic exercise: the Cologne

When your name is Etat Libre d'Orange, and you make rupture your rule, it's tempting to go against the grain, to look for the twist, the orginality, the extravagance. It's a temptation you have to resist. The Cologne d'Etat Libre d'Orange was meant to be a beautiful grand cologne simple, unafraid to speak its name and humbly striving to be part of a tradition. It takes a lot of work to achieve simplicity. It takes a lot of false trails to find the right path. And then, suddenly Cologne is there. A Cologne qui sent bon.
A nice scent.

Etat d'esprit
UNE EAU CAMÉLÉON.
S'effacer devant son sujet. Lay down your arms. Pledge allegiance. Accept transparency. Like a chameleon, change color. As it comes, change mood. Blend in with the environment. Impose yourself less. Charm more. A story of water that adapts to the skin.

Etat général
UNE EAU MONOCHROME.
La Cologne d'Etat Libre d'Orange is a monochromatic water. Conciliatory. Consenting. A Cologne delicious, ambitious, but only a Cologne Sparkling, brilliant, barely faceted, fresh and attractive, round and obvious, with just the right intensity, balanced. Faithful, sincere. An endearing presence. A water that lasts and makes pleasure last.

Etat d'âme
L' EAU PREMIÈRE.
La Cologne d'Etat Libre d'Orange is first water, water for the first time. First meeting. First brushes with uncertainty. The desire to please, the hope of seduction. The meeting of two desires. Bodies searching for each other, perhaps afraid to find each other. We want and we don't want. Before getting to know each other, stay on the sidelines. Sending clear signals that we'd like to be discreet. The touch of two skins. Breaking the ice, the protection. Restraint until abandonment. The first time. An initiation, a pass to pleasure. Embark. Enter the Orange Free State as a guest. Learn the rules. Learn the codes. Subscribe. Feel at home. And stay there.

Etat des lieux
BRILLANT.
A shiny white opaque glass, a shimmering and iridescent cockade, the bottle of the Cologne d'Etat Libre d'Orange pokes fun at its own conformity. And plays it up to disappear behind the scent. For the Cologne Etat Libre d'Orange has imagined a creation that is at once obvious - by featuring ingredients of exceptional quality, modern - through the subtle contrast between the freshness of a slightly green citrus note and the depth of its floral heart, and addictive - through the softness of musks and the sophistication of a leathery accord in the background.

La Cologne immediately wins us over with the irresistible freshness of Blood Orange and Bergamot; worked with a zesty edge, their slightly green, natural, sparkling and crisp facet brings modern originality to the note. It takes us to a floral heart of Orange Blossom and Jasmine, which endows the Cologne depth and texture, beyond the vaporous dimension of the traditional cologne traditional. Finally, the musky accord that marks the base with its fluidity and transparency, gives the note an addictive, melt-in-your-mouth effect...
