Delicious Closet Queen
Eau de Parfum
by Etat Libre d’Orange



The Scoop
If you smell the top notes of Delicious Closet Queen and think that you are dealing with a traditional masculine scent with its green violet leaf, clean citruses and spiky geranium--then you have fallen for the pretense of a perfume that excels in the art of disguise and concealment. Think of the top notes as a made-to-measure suit, almost anonymous in its impeccable elegance. It’s what's underneath that matters, and it is indeed delicious. Ambivalent from start to finish, the composition combines the sweet, creamy, unabashedly feminine accord of iris, rose and strawberries with the resinous, smoky, almost tobacco-like, and undeniably masculine blend of leather, sandalwood, vetiver and patchouli. It is a testament to the perfumer’s talent that a fragrance built on such striking contrast is so harmonious and smooth--a subversive, sensuous and light-hearted delight.

Well, Ive tried this twice and each time all I could smell was something like powdery old lady perfume. I wanted to like it, but it just didnt jive with me.

I'm surprised at the official description above and the comments below that mention the word "masculine": to me, this is not a masculine fragrance at all. Don't get me wrong --I love this scent--, but it might not be the right fragrance for men with a limited sense of what men should smell like. The rich, rich florals are "delicious" and beautiful, but the delightful name does tell you what you're getting. It's a little frilly, and very pretty.

Very nice: mildly sweet but woodsy going on. It becomes a little schizo, where sharpness and sweetness never quite meld, with consistently sharp, dry "male" notes playing against plum blossoms, much like Balenciaga's "Rumba," with a minty note. Lasts well.

This perfume succeeds like a temptation:perhaps one does not yield to it,but has already succumbed to the paradox. I mean, it opens, if not with a blast of masculinity, as the other reviwer said, in a certainly assertive manner - then buttery iris comes in and stays and the effect is like craving: it is feminine but, wait - there is leather, there is greeness and is, well, manly, but then again, there is geranium at heart and strawberries and...The perfume, at once jubilant and mannerly, works more than well. How can it be? I don't know if Nathalie Feisthauer is a genius, but she is surely generous!

This is a softer fragrance that one might expect. It is discreet, as one might expect, as well as somewhat mysterious in the basenotes. It is difficult to pin down the notes. It starts out with a blast of masculinity. That is just its cover. It then becomes a unisex, wonderful fragrance. I could easily wear this. It is feminine AND masculine enough that it does not turn me off, whereas extremes of either of these results in a massive blackout of power, interest and desire. A seducer. I only wish the persistence and sillage were greater.
