1740 Marquis de Sade
Histoires de Parfums · Eau de Parfum (EDP) · 2000
≈ $245 · 120ml · approx. retail
A dark, seductive woody chypre built around syrupy immortelle, smoky birch, and rich leather over a spiced patchouli heart. 1740 is an interplay of light and dark that dries down warm, animalic, and unmistakably sensual.
