What Does 1889 Smell Like?
Created in collaboration with the Moulin Rouge, 1889 has become the signature fragrance of this legendary cabaret. The scent invites you to close your eyes and picture Paris at night; a single beam of light bursts from the Moulin Rouge, where the cabaret comes to life.
The fragrance opens with a fruity heat as spicy cinnamon mixes with sweet fruits to tease the senses before melting into green, aromatic absinthe, which is set against a backdrop of sensual rose, which playfully seduces each spectator. The dry down of earthy patchouli, seductive musk, soft fur and powdery iris rounds out this sensual, heady floral Eau de Parfum, which perfectly captures the excitement of the Moulin Rouge.
Top notes are Tangerine, Prune, Cinnamon. Heart notes are Absinthe, Damascus Rose. Base notes are Iris, Patchouli, Musk, Fur.
Why it’s Escentual:
When it comes to this Histoires de Parfums perfume, everything from the scent to the deep matte red box it’s held in epitomises the Moulin Rouge; the fragrance takes you straight to 1889, the year that the Moulin Rouge opened.
In fact, if you close your eyes and inhale, 1889 will take you to the very heart of the Moulin Rouge. People are abuzz with anticipation, the gentle tinkling of champagne flutes clinking around you as the curtains rise. In a cloud of soft feathers and glistening sequins, the dancers make their entrance...
We love how Histoires de Parfums has created a perfume to recall and honour the Moulin Rouge, an iconic cabaret house that’s deemed to be the birthplace of the modern form of the can-can dance. And what we love even more, is that that the scent has been created in collaboration with the Moulin Rouge itself. The floral perfume captures the essence and energy of this venue, where the show might end, but the party continues backstage as the scent of iris powder and vivid red lipstick float out to the streets on a billowing cloud of musk and patchouli, with the memory of the night before lingering on until long after.
