Details & care

What it is: Contre-Jour is more than just a perfume, it is a presence, a fiercely free soul by Annick Manardo.

Fragrance story: Built against conventional patterns, this fragrance reveals a dazzling yet elusive trail that invites one to never be defined. The perfume echoes the spirit of the mediterranean wildflower Everlasting Flower, famed for its extraordinary longevity, a sunlit yellow bloom, contrasting with dark, untamable depths of its scent.

Style: Woody, aromatic.

Notes:
- Top: Immortelle flower
- Middle: punk rose
- Base: sandalwood

Disappointing scent

I bought Contre-Jour EdP some weeks ago and have tried the scent a couple of times. At first it smells interesting and reminds me of Clinique Aromatics Elixir. The scent lasts very long but after a while the flowery-herbal notes turn into a smell that reminds me of stock cubes, like a peppery turmeric (although not included in the notes), especially when sprayed on fabric. I am glad that I only got the 10ml bottle.

Masterpiece

I purchased the 1.7oz bottle on a blind buy. I wanted it because I'm a fangirl for immortelle. Contre-jour is a photography term for photographing a backlit subject. This combination by Annick Menardo is incredible: the punk rose is the background, the immortelle is the light, and the sandalwood holds it all together. This will be my scent all Summer in Colorado - and going back for a second bottle now because this one will def sell out. Thanks for carrying this Nordstrom!
