Beauté du Diable
Beauté du Diable by Liquides Imaginaires is an unisex eau de parfum in the niche price tier. It opens with lemon, coriander, gin and absinthe, moves into clove, cypress, geranium, ylang-ylang and carnation and dries down to vetiver, guaiac wood and labdanum. Expect around 8 hours of wear, and it projects at a moderate level.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Lemon Clean, sour, instantly recognisable. Bright but burns off fast.
- Coriander Warm seed spice, slightly citrusy. A quiet workhorse.
- Gin Juniper and citrus peel with an alcoholic sting.
- Absinthe Bitter wormwood and anise. Green, boozy and slightly wicked.
Heart
- Clove Hot, dry and dental. Powerful — a little goes a long way.
- Cypress Cool, green, resinous conifer. Sharp and clean.
- Geranium Rosy and minty at once. Reads masculine more often than not.
- Ylang-Ylang Banana-custard floral. Rich, tropical and slightly rubbery.
- Carnation Spicy, clove-like floral. Old-school and a bit peppery.
Dry-down
- Vetiver Dry, earthy, smoky grass root. Smells like soil and citrus peel.
- Guaiac Wood Smoky, tarry and slightly sweet. Like a bonfire and roses.
- Labdanum Sticky, leathery resin. Dark honey and old books.
