Klassik Kollektion - 1740

About Klassik Kollektion - 1740.

1740 was the year of birth of a noble Parisian named Donatien Alphonse François de Sade, who became known for all posterity as the Marquis de Sade. For this man, who was imprisoned several times for his indecent behavior, sensuality went hand in hand with literature, as evidenced by the numerous works left behind after his death. The freethinking writer and sexual reprobate would probably have approved of the fragrance named for him, its thick, syrupy immortelle leather, hay, patchouli, and davana staking out a very sensual interpretation of leather. Freakishly strong, erotic, spicy, and almost edible in its thickness, 1740 is a fragrance for those who are simply greedy for every scrap of sensual pleasure they can glean in this life.
