The concept and name of perfume comes from the Latin per fumare "through the smoke": Light My Fire dissects the finest cigar tobacco, the olfactory pinnacle of a Monte Cristo.Β Light My Fire is a fragrance to stimulate both sexes. Defying tradition, Kilian Hennessy and Sidonie Lancesseur reject the sparkle of top notes to plunge with the recklessness of desire into the dark spiciness of tobacco leaf evoked by dry fragrant cumin, tedded hay, earthy patchouli and vetiver. The sweetness of fulfilment blossoms in wild honey melting into a warm base of vanilla, the almond tang of white heliotrope, creamy tonka and smoky birchwood.Β Cigar leaves languorously unrolled & fantastically reconstructed to run smoke rings around the imagination, and the 'soft blue veil of the vapour musing on the loved one's face' to paraphrase Rudyard Kipling, Imperial poet and aficionado of smokes.
