The Holiday Song Smell-track

Posted by Angela on 19 December 2016 110 Comments

stereo red

It’s time for the “scent a Christmas carol” game! Here’s how it works: someone tosses out the name of a carol, and the rest of us pitch in with suggestions for fragrances to accompany it. I’ll get us started.

We Three Kings: “Frankincense to offer have I…myrrh have I: it’s bitter perfume.” As Robin pointed out when I proposed this post, Eau d’Italie Baume du Doge has frankincense and myrhh. For frankincense alone, you have a hundred choices. Start with the new Tauer Perfumes Au Coeur du désert. For myrhh, try Annick Goutal Myrhhe Ardente. You kids in the back are undoubtedly remembering this song’s alternative lyrics: “We three kings of orient are / Trying to smoke a rubber cigar.” I’ve got you covered, too. Bulgari Black should do it.1

The Christmas Song: “Chestnuts roasting on an open fire.” Caron Nuit de Noël is a sure winner here. Not only does it have “Noël” in its name, it wafts a sweet nuttiness that’s a bulls-eye for this song.

Deck the Halls: “Deck the halls with boughs of holly.” I admit to not having smelled a lot of holly. It’s so prickly that I stay away from it and yank it from my garden with leather gloves when it sneaks in from the neighbor’s yard. Let’s assume holly is green and resinous. Try Serge Lutens Fille en Aiguilles. (Note: this recommendation doubles for Have a Holly Jolly Christmas.)

Away in a Manger: Who said Miller Harris L’Air de Rien first? You win. Cartier L’Heure Fougueuse is loaded with barnyard, too.

Wassail Wassail All Over the Town: Does anyone have the slightest clue what wassail smells like? Not me. All I know is that is contains booze. Therefore, I’ll cut this short and direct you to 5 Perfumes that Smell Like Booze. (Now I'm tempted to ask for a "wassail, dry, with a twist" from my bartender.)

Silver Bells: “City sidewalks, busy sidewalks / It’s Christmas time in the city” (Pro tip: cat lovers can substitute “kitty” for “city” for a satisfying take on an old tune.) What perfume smells like a sidewalk? I’m going to choose an oddball and go with Estée Lauder Azurée. Oakmoss can smell like wet rocks to me, so Azurée might smell like a damp sidewalk with leather shoes parading over it.

Little Drummer Boy: “Ba-rump-a-bum-bum” etc., ad nauseum. Clearly, here we don’t need something that smells like a boy or a drum. We need something that’s alluring at first, but ultimately annoying. A fragrance that cloys. Forgive me for choosing Rochas Tocade. I love it, and I need to where it from time to time, but it irritates the heck out of me.

Please chime in! Which fragrances match which holiday songs for you? We didn’t cover Silent Night, Oh Come All Ye Faithful, or the music for the Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy. Any ideas for these or others?

1. Ed. note: Angela left out the other well known alternative, "We three kings of Leicester square / Selling ladies underwear / So fantastic, no elastic / Only £2 a pair." Which of course would be Victoria's Secret Bombshell.

          It was a weird one, even by Olympic Orchids standards, and is discontinued. I really couldn’t wear it but it smells amazing on my cousin. On me it was weird and chemical and really similar to the sharp smell of a freshly opened freezer.

    I’ll go with an obvious one: L’Heure Bleue for Blue Christmas. For some reason L’HB has always smelled like Christmas (and winter) to me.

    We Three Kings – Incense Pure (also has both frankincense and myrrh)
    O Christmas Tree – Wazama (smells exactly like the Balsam Christmas trees of my youth)
    Away in a Manger – Dzing

    This is fun! :-)

    Fave Christmas song is Pretenders 2000 Miles. Since there’s a reference to diamonds sparkling in the snow, I’ll nominate White Diamonds. Haven’t smelled it, but it’s an aldehyde, and I picture Chrissie going with a kitschy fragrance!

    • Angela says:
      19 December 2016 at 3:51 pm

      Yes! I completely get it. White Diamonds has a white floral kick, so maybe the backseat is full of second-day tabletop decorations dug out of a church dumpster.

      Tester bottles of White Diamonds seem to be everywhere at the moment, perhaps a push for holiday shoppers to sample. I tried it last night and found it appealing. Definitely a sparkler.

        “Sparkler” is the ideal description! It’s sharp and sprays light for a while, then softens into a lovely white floral chypre. I can’t wear it very well, but I love sniffing it from time to time.

    I would pair In The Bleak Midwinter with Gris Clair which i find suitably chilly and austere. For little drummer boy I would go with Chamade simply based on name. What I really want to know however is what to pair with Boney N’s Christmas album.

    Robin, I can answer the wassail question! It’s cider mulled with tons of spices and brandy or mead added for a powerful kick. My recipe calls for an addition of roasted apple pulp, so I’m going with Wazamba which has that smoky/sweet apple-in-the-fire effect.

    It’s a marshmallow world in the winter
    When the snow comes to cover the ground
    It’s time for play, it’s a whipped cream day
    I wait for it the whole year ’round
    …
    Oh, it’s a yum-yummy world made for sweethearts
    Take a walk with your favorite girl
    It’s a sugar date, what if spring is late
    In winter it’s a marshmallow world

    I would pair this with the sweetest, stickiest perfume I own: Mémoire Liquide’s Amour Liquide. Vanilla to the max. Sadly, lacking all the suavity of Sinatra and Martin:

    Twelve Days of Christmas

    Any perfume that has everything but the kitchen sink fits: (# of notes per Fragrantica)
    – Parfums MDCI Chypre Palatin (21)
    – Bal a Versailles (26, not a typo)

    I dare anyone to fine a perfume with more than 26 notes per Fragrantica!

      Fragrantica only touches on listed notes! Many perfumes are swimming in actual materials–Bal a Versailles is well above 100, I believe (the number is out there since the fragrance is so famously complex, but I didn’t find it in a 2-second internet search, so I’ll add a comment later). As a quick check, the Le Labo perfumes list the number of materials used in the fragrance’s title. Iris 39, for instance, has 39 materials included!

      That said, I know you’re on to something with Bal a Versailles….

    I am not that well versed or familiar with Christmas songs and carols,so I’ll suggest when you go to Midnight Mass and sing all of them:Comme de Garçonnes Avignon.I did once attend Midnight Mass on invitation from a friend,and I wore Avignon.And it was perfect.

      Avignon would be spot-on perfect for midnight mass in an old cathedral. Absolutely so.

    An obscure holiday carol I heard for the first time last week is called “What is This Lovely Fragrance?” (“Quelle est cette odeur agréable?”). I would pair it with Mon Precieux Nectar. I already mentioned this carol on NST over the weekend, but could not resist posting it here too — it fits everyone’s favorite fragrance whatever that might be.

    And I think Erdenstern deserves a carol for having such a pretty name. Perhaps I would “hang a shining star upon the highest bough” as in Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas, or just watch “the silent stars go by” in O Little Town of Bethlehem.

      “What is this lovely fragrance?” How perfect is that? I must find it and listen to it.

        Maybe this is it?

        It looks like Jean Siberry recorded it, too, but that’s not on YouTube.

          A lovely song! Well, according to the lyrics, the fragrance wafts “like the flowers in spring,” so that’s a big hint. We could go a million directions, but I’ll choose DelRae Wit.

    Oh spot on with Tocade! That’s hilarious! And I say that as one who KNOWS full well that Tocade is annoying and I STILL went ahead with a full bottle. Now it winks at me from the depths of the perfume drawer. It doesn’t care what I think of it, it has fun anyway all by itself. :)

      Yes, Tocade is a winking sort of perfume if there ever was one! I have a full bottle, too, and it’s busy partying all by itself in my perfume cabinet.
