Tyger Tyger Extrait de Parfum

Francesca Bianchi Tyger Tyger Extrait de Parfum. In this composition I sought the perfect balance between two opposing elements and the expression of their contrast. I had in mind a post-apocalyptic condition, where traces of a highly sophisticated and refined civilization survived in the dark and fearful condition of a collapsed and unstructured world. Blake's Tyger embodies the two qualities I wanted to portray: sublime and irresistibly attractive on the one hand and terrible and terrifying on the other. The "dread symmetry," a character attributed to the tiger by W. Blake, aptly represents this opposition of beautiful perfection and terror. The perfume is built around an accord of narcotic white flowers with sweet and fruity facets, which also includes tuberose absolute. Like a prima donna, the protagonist of a dramatic piece, it is the best example of a refined civilization from a bygone world; In contrast, the base notes feature different types of wood, with some burnt and leathery qualities, reminiscent of a post-apocalyptic setting of destruction, mystery, and darkness. The result of these parts, which wouldn't work separately, is a sparkling and contrasting fragrance that gives me a thrilling feeling of highly dramatic sophistication—the kind of contrasting feeling that anything attractive evokes in me.
