FIN DE SIECLE TRAVEL SIZE

I don’t understand how notes work I don’t understand the story descriptions, but it’s a very earthy, herbal, almost spicy rose. After it dries down I smell like potpourri, which I do like. not my usual vibe but I think on a night where I’m dressed up I can really appreciate this

I’ve worn Libertine for years now and even when I try out other brands, I also end up coming back to Fin de Siecle. It’s become my signature scent and I feel like a luxurious woodland fairy wearing it, it's a scent that I feel like I've been searching for for years I feel like I've finally found it. Its romantic, its unique, it's somehow melancholy. I also appreciate the personal touches that Libertine includes with their orders. It truly feels like something special in this fast paced world. I’ll be purchasing their fragrances for years to come. Thank you!

Wonderfully surprised and fully impressed. Long lasting, layered, rich and full. I will definitely return for more and excited to explore more scents! Thank you libertine!💛

This rose. She can have my heart on a platter. She is a vampire who lives out her days in woodland glens of moss and streaming brooks. Though she will never eat them, she keeps a bowl of apricots in a brass bowl inside of the tree she has built a home in, winding stairways to the top. She has lived through every age and prefers the solace of the woods. She has known the highest court and the deepest sin but she is pure at heart and an old soul. She opens her red velvet curtains to every dawn to breathe in the morning dew. Apart from this mystical envisioned story that is evoked for me, it reminds me of what kind of perfume Patrice from the movie Kate & Leopold that Charlie has a crush on might be wearing as a signature scent. She’s got a vampire grunge vibe but appreciates art and poetry. This is the kind of uplifting dewy green, red rose I need to smell during PNW winters to lift my spirits. It is at once tinkling and archaic as it is elegant and alluring. I layer with Soft Woods to burn into a mystical rose incarnate, or wear with patchouli or vanilla to become a little more earthy or edible.

I had ordered a sample collection a while ago that included Fin de Siecle. On first spray I was reminded of the scent of Thrills gum, but not sweet. I was hooked once the little one ran out and I bought the travel size. It is a sultry rosewater and licorice scent on my skin. It's clean, but not sterile. It's Caprina goats milk soap in a tub full of warm water while you sip a glass of merlot. It's the kind of scent that goes on great and only gets better on my skin through the day. It isn't a scent you will find at the perfume counter (do these still exist?) and you will likely be asked about it more than once. I have officially adopted it as my fall/winter signature.
