Floraphobia - Shaving Soap - 4oz

Inspired by Athalia by PDM

FLORAPHOBIA started life with this quote from Jean Claude Ellena’s book - The Dairy of a Nose.

‘I like pleasures when they are shared, that is my definition of luxury. I transpose this ideal on to the perfumes I create, which are mostly meant to be shared by men and women. If I compose a ‘mens’ fragrance for a wide audience, I never fail to slip in some women’s ciphers, and vice versa for a so-called ‘women’s’ perfume. Fashions codes were invented to be transgressed, to be played on; so I don’t believe perfumes should be for women, for men, mixed or unisex. It is the people who wear them who give them their gender. In India, men have been wearing Yves Saint Laurent’s Opium, Guerlain’s Shalimar and Dior’s J’adore since they were launched. I avoid pigeonholing, putting things in boxes, I would rather give people the freedom to choose, to appropriate each of my creations for themselves.’
