Putain des Palaces owns its provocative name: the house imagines a seductress of grand hotels, powdered and self-assured. Mandarin, ginger and raspberry open it with a fruity, piquant sparkle.

The heart pairs iris, rose and geranium, for a very powdery floral, like a trace of lipstick. A touch of bitter almond and the outline of a supple leather lead to a soft base of tonka bean, sandalwood and musk.

Putain des Palaces in detail

Etat Libre d'Orange loves provocative names and unexpected stories. Despite its name, Putain des Palaces is a powdery, leathery floral of great elegance: a made-up rose and orris, brightened by raspberry, evoking the slightly faded luxury of grand hotels.

The official pyramid opens on mandarin, ginger and raspberry, a fruity, spicy start. The heart brings together orris, rose and geranium, a powdery, almost cosmetic bouquet. The base pairs tonka bean, sandalwood and musk, a soft, warm foundation. The house describes it as floral, powdery and leathery at once.

Putain des Palaces is worn in the evening, from autumn to spring: a night out, a dinner, a formal evening.

Three leather fragrances in our catalogue come close: Crème de Cuir by BDK Parfums shares mandarin, sandalwood and musk in a sunny suede; Cuir Béluga by Guerlain brings together mandarin and musk in a pale leather; Iris Malikhân by Maison Crivelli pairs orris and musk with a leathery vanilla.
