Eloge du Traitre
Eau de Parfum
by Etat Libre d’Orange



The Scoop
Dedicated to the legendary traitors we love to hate and hate to love, Eloge du Traitre is Etat Libre d’Orange’s take on classic masculine elegance, with the trademark subversive quirkiness. In a way, creating a new version of a time-honored aromatic fougere might be the most daring feat of all. It pays to risk! In a perfume encyclopedia, under “fougere”, there could be a photo of Eloge du Traitre, because, with its chilly pine, pungent bay leaf, overdose of green and spiky artemisia and earthy patchouli, it is a Perfect Fougere…and yet there is something beautifully odd about this classic number, something we can’t put our finger on…it might be the unexpected feminine delicacy of jasmine amidst the archetypal masculinity of the other notes, or it might be that special sleekly animalic quality that musk notes have in Etat Libre d’Orange scents…whatever it is, it has us addicted.
Eloge du Traitre Notes

Great stuff - very masculine, but the jasmine gives the fragrance another dimension, and more importantly, balance. I would interpret this as a reimagination of well-known fougeres of the 1980s (Original Polo, Yatagan, Drakkar, etc). As with those fragrances, longevity and projection are excellent. Not an everyday fragrance, but a neat twist on a classic theme.

Great smelling, but not at all unique. It follows in the footsteps on YSL Kouros, RL Safari, Paco Rabanne Pour Homme, etc.

I think this is the most evocative of the names ELdO has picked. An eloge it certainly is: to the cold pines the traitor treads along, the burnt wooden bridges he leaves behind and to betrayal's honey. An austere if not haughty perfume.

Very dry; nice but unremarkable; nothing to distinguish it from other well-made guy scents; persists well but doesn’t seem to evolve on my skin
