    From the Frederic Malle Website: Consider perfume a portrait of its wearer: the sound of her voice, her gaze, the way she plays cards. At once timeless and resonant with today, here is a scent that speaks of her innate sophistication. Charm that emanates from within, boldly depicted without; an expressive portrayal of modern grace. At the fore, an exuberant dose of Turkish rose - 400 flowers per 100ml bottle, no less. Beneath, a bed of patchouli heart imbued with sandalwood and frankincense. An accord of clove, blackcurrant and raspberry binds the perfume together for a final characterful brushstroke.

    When Portrait of a Lady first came out, the sales assistant at Barneys sprayed some on my arm. It was not yet officially released and wouldn't be for a couple more weeks. I became obsessed with smelling it again and bought a bottle immediately when it became available. This reaction is the only instance where I became so obsessed with a fragrance. Interestingly, I don't wear it very often.

    Hi from Spain, nice to see Dalia again, I like always her collaboration, she’s very funny!!! I like POAL but I’m not confortable wearing this. I think all the fragances are unisex but to me this go a little bit femenine . I prefer wear The Night, is similar but to me is more masculine than POAL. Thanks both. Stay safe!! Regards from Valencia.

    Smelled it today. A wonderful saleslady handed me a 7 ml tester. Got home, applied it and was in aw. What a patchouli woody spicy rose masterpiece. Absolutely adorable. The patchouli is soo immensely good. Just unbelievable. Performance is more than outstanding. A jewel in perfumery.

    It's worth noting that the name, "Portrait of a Lady" doesn't imply that the fragrance is for a woman. Someone who wears a fragrance called "Portrait of a Lady" wants to explore and understand this woman, which is as much a masculine as it is a feminine trait.

    Love the discussion and review. Speaking of stars, The Portrait of a Lady has been also adapted into a movie packed with stars, starring Nicole Kidman with John Malcovich, Viggo Mortensen, Christain Bale, Martin Donovan, and other iconic stars. Fun fact: Much like the perfume in respect of femininity/masculinity balance, the movie screenplay was written by Laura Jones, of course, based on Henry James Novel.

    Funnily enough, this beautiful fragrance did not last on my skin at all, unlike Musc Ravageur that works great on me. I was sooo happy to find Porpora by Tiziana Terenzi that smells extremely similar, last forever and is half the price. Intoxicating rose.

The both of you talk about this scent being a masterpiece....curious, do the both of you think Baccarat Rouge 540 is on the same level or comes close to POAL or at the same perfumery level in terms of creative technical execution? Of course, they’re totally different scent profiles and vibes, but BR has a cult following as well. Cheers!

    • @CurtisGabrielMusic
      @CurtisGabrielMusic 9 місяців тому

      People always say that old formulations are better! It's a psychological phenomenon that happens caused by how the mind deals with scarcity. If it is rare or in short supply the mind will tend to desire it much more. Most of these reformulations are incredibly subtle. People also always complain that fragrances are less strong when actually you just go nose blind, especially to strong fragrances. POAL current bottles smell very strong!

    The name Portrait of a Lady DOES effect my attitude towards it. Association is a big part of fragrance appreciation and the question is would I want to project a feminine association. I think the Fragrantica rating for this is unisex leaning feminine. But I'll probably pick it up at some point. After Musc Ravaguer. I show my collection off. Give private tours to friends. I explain each fragrance and so they'll ask about the name.
