The Lover's Tale by Francesca Bianchi, released in 2018 and composed by Francesca Bianchi, is a grand floral leather in the vintage style. Everyone describes it as floral, about half add sweet, woody, musky and leathery, and a quarter find a fresh side.
It opens with aldehydes, sparkling and slightly waxy, over bergamot, honey and mimosa, so there is sweetness from the start. The heart is Bulgarian rose and Egyptian jasmine with peach for ripeness, heliotrope for an almond softness and orris root for powder. The base is where it turns animalic: leather and castoreum give a warm, slightly feral depth, oakmoss and vetiver a dry, mossy bitterness, and labdanum, sandalwood and musk round it out.
It is worn by anyone. Most wearers call the longevity eternal and the rest long lasting, and sillage is strong for half and enormous for a third, so apply sparingly. Winter and autumn are the seasons people vote for, and it is voted for night by a wide margin. It suits formal evenings in cold weather and someone drawn to old-fashioned, animalic florals.
The Lover's Tale — unisex fragrance by Francesca Bianchi (released 2018). Top notes: Honey, Mimosa, Aldehydes, Bergamot. Heart notes: Orris, Peach, Heliotrope, Egyptian Jasmine, Bulgarian Rose.
