There’s a particular kind of fire that doesn’t roar. It flickers low, controlled, dressed in silk gloves and dark lipstick. Flame & Fortune captures that exact vibe of a femme fatale at a table of a gambling game.
Built like a smoky red curtain, the fragrance opens with a puff of warm spice juxtaposed with something industrial, like the freezing vapor of a freezer. It’s odd, yet it’s quite intriguing and inviting.
Freshening aroma of tuberose and orange blossoms coils through the air, and meets a rich, earthy nuance of booze and smooth, smoldering fireplace smell at the back. And all this complexity is paired with velvety apricot and supported with a row of floral notes and spices.
As the scent settles, the heart shifts into something more theatrical. A tender breeze of incense begins to rise alongside a worn leather. Not biker jacket leather, but something more intimate, like the tactile delicacy of a chamois glove from a glorious past. Labdanum forms an amber hint and weaves everything together by adding depth without drowning the lighter notes.
Despite its sultry core, Flame & Fortune doesn’t shout. It moves with elegance, confident in its shadows. The projection is soft but steady, like perfume worn in close quarters — a secret passed rather than a speech delivered. It feels like red velvet trimmed with smoke, or a slow-motion glance across a poker table.
Ideal for evenings that stretch past the clock, or days when mystery feels like the right accessory.
