Tom of Finland
Description
A sensual blend evoking leather (pyrogenated styrax oil, suede note), the metal of belt buckles and the woody notes of outdoor ‘festivities’. Vibrant aldehyde notes evoke the freshness of a long, hot shower after a night of excess. The voluptuously sexual base blends amber, tonka bean, musk and vanilla. Designed by: Antoine Lie.

History
After fragrances with names like Sécrétions Magnifiques, Putain des Palaces (“High-Class Whore”) and Je Suis un Homme, Etat Libre d’Orange, the fragrance brand that likes to leave the beaten path, continues to explore the concept of olfactory libertinage with their new fragrance, Tom of Finland. A fragrance that translates into scent the homo-erotic imagination of Finnish graphic designer Touko Laaksonen (1920-1991), better known as Tom of Finland. ‘Straight or gay, (…) the Tom of Finland man doesn’t have a sexuality, he IS sex. (…) Fantasy fits him like the black leather of his Perfecto motorcycle jacket’. For more info: etatlibredorange.com

Tom of Finland on the bottle - looks like a creepy mannequin. I don't mind straight or gay, but Tom looks unreal. That aside, I love the imagination put into this brand's perfume names. I would try and if I like it, I can always put a sticker over Tom's face.

J'ai vraiment été surprise par ce parfum. Je m'attendais à une odeur puissante très agressive. En fait, ce parfum se déploie autour de l'iris. Il est très doux, un peu poudré, un peu ambré. Je le considère plus comme un parfum mixte que comme un parfum "couillu" pour bikers gays.
