Mystery auction: Noir Premier Or Intemporel 1888 Eau de Parfum

Noir Premier Or Intemporel 1888 Eau de Parfum - Parfums OR INTEMPOREL is a spicy oriental fragrance in which the two deliciously addictive top notes, tobacco and coffee, are used to evoke the opulence of gold. Paris, 1 August 1888. If Maison Lalique had a birthday, this would be it. It was on this day that René Lalique registered his hallmark, comprising his initials and the symbol of a sword, which was intended to be used in designs made of gold in his studio. The Maison drew inspiration from the most precious materials available in honouring this legendary history with the creation of OR INTEMPOREL 1888. Two deliciously addictive heart notes, Tobacco and Coffee, come together to evoke the opulence of gold and the fascination it has always held for mankind. This intense and rare accord with the hot/cold structure of spices (cardamom, nutmeg, black pepper) expresses the contrast between the radiance of gold and the freshness of the metal. Vanilla and Tolu Balsam, with the help of a hint of patchouli, soften the subdued palette of rich, warm tones.
