Infused with the sweet and sensual scent of tobacco, this is a poetic ode to those who burn life at both ends.To those for whom excess is a way of life, who love celebrating the pleasures of living in the most opulent luxury. To those who know that time flies so fast that life must be lived intensely and celebrated to the hilt.Living dangerously has its limits, and disenchantment is inevitable. When the party ends and the smokescreen falls, lost illusions resurface. A tragic and fascinating reality check. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Fleurs d’oranger Is the happy memory of Serge Lutens' arrival in Morocco in 1968, the shock to the senses of his first encounter with the amazing aromas and his wonderment at “the women who were hitting the orange blossom trees with a stick and collecting the falling white blossom in large white sheets”. Unquestionably the scent of happiness! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
