Strange Heavens Out of The Blue
This perfume is inspired by Oscar Wilde, taking its name from a line associated with The Picture of Dorian Gray and channeling that novel’s themes of decadence, temptation, and aesthetic obsession. It sits within Clive Christian’s Addictive Arts concept, where fragrance is framed as an intoxicating art form, and is further tied to a contemporary art collaboration (notably imagery featuring artist Domingo Zapata’s iconic panda), reinforcing the idea of modern hedonism meeting classic literary glamour.
The opening is like a jolt of espresso: bitter-dark, aromatic, and brightened by pink pepper’s sparkle, while anise adds a licorice sheen that feels like neon over midnight streets. In the heart, the mood turns more intimate, jasmine and orange blossom bloom like warm skin under soft light, giving the gourmand core a polished, almost couture floral lift. As it settles, cocoa absolutely unfurls in velvety waves, caramelized vanilla melts into a slow, edible glow, and a smoky undertone suggests lacquered wood, velvet booths, and last-call elegance.
