    l’enfant terrible, indeed! thanks for posting this one, I can’t remember the last time I smelled le male. I do remember loving the opening. Lavender maybe?

    I have to admit I adore sailors’ blue and white stripes, though mine come from Target.

    Francis Kurkdjian has more to say about the fragrance in a brief interview I enjoyed reading here 😉
