Description
“Who is Fantôme de Maules?” asks Stora Skuggan, the mysterious Swedish fragrance house whose name translates to “Big Shadow.” Good question. Maules, a French-speaking village in Switzerland, is purportedly home to a fantôme – a benevolent loner/spirit/survivalist who haunts the local woodlands – picking flowers, cracking twigs, rustling leaves and cloaking the forest in a phantasmal veil of eeriness and intrigue.And what does this specter smell like? On first blast, leaves and lemon, quickly followed by a spicy, herbaceous mix of lavender, coriander, and cardamom. He’s cool but hot; grassy, but with a dash of earthy, edible nuttiness that dries down to a meditative walk in the wilderness. A powdery, thoughtful, mossy wood that implores us to ask, again, who the hell this Fantôme de Maules really is. A spook? An outsider? A friendly wraith? We’re still not sure. But we’re okay with that.
A fragrance tester is an entirely new, unused product that has never been sprayed. These testers are genuine, fresh, and 100% original, featuring the exact same fragrance as the full-priced version. Manufacturers produce testers, which might come in simple packaging and lack decorative caps. As a result, they are offered at a lower price, and we pass those savings directly to you.
