To attack the sun, to erase it from the universe, to create eternal darkness — what an absurd proposition!
And yet, Donatien Alphonse François, the Marquis de Sade, was nothing if not provocative.

He lived many lives: writer, revolutionary, philosopher, libertine.
He scorned societal norms and demanded absolute freedom.
He questioned every axiom — of love, of beauty, even of violence.
He ignored taboos.
He wanted to strike the sun and set the world on fire — to free it from prejudice, to shatter the barriers that keep us from embracing our desires.

Etat Libre d'Orange has chosen to celebrate the man who loved the extreme, inviting the Marquis de Sade to join its family of daring fragrances.
He agreed — willingly... or perhaps with a touch of pain.

This is a bold, singular perfume, built around a single provocative note. Its formula is brief — because only one ingredient truly matters: labdanum. A note the perfumer hates.

And that's precisely what makes it fascinating — a little rebellious, a little masochistic... exactly as de Sade would have wanted.
