EDITOR'S NOTES

Not for the faint of heart, but truly a rewarding wear, 1740 is an enrapturing piece of libertine perfumery, given its name from the birth year of the original sadist, Marquis de Sade. 1740 is dark, intense, and mysterious - with a transient sense of bitterness that quickly moves into a pleasurable combination of spiced leather.

There's something chaste about 1740, in the way it perpetuates its earthy hues without immediate contrast. It explores the paradox of constraint, constrained by never revealing contrast, but liberated to explore the absolutely dark depths of wood and leather notes. This is a confident fragrance, distinctive and bold. A perfect leather.

The scent is very nice but it won't last long enough

Dark, sensual, floral leathery beauty

Beautiful, dark, mysterious, floral leathery scent with a spicy opening. A great niche fragrance that takes an intriguing non linear journey. Projects well and lasts hours. I love the ability to sample - especially being far from the store and with current conditions. Service is superb in store and online.

Not for the shrinking violet's amongst us

I love this dirty, filthy scent. Definitely not for the faint of heart and only if you are happy smelling like a closed room after full sex from when you spray it on early in the morning. If you're curious, just do it. Careful re spraying it onto fabric, I have been told it sticks for years.....

[Review of 1740 EDP Sample Vial]

Wow. I believe the hype, but I was not prepared for the strength of this juice. This is some powerful, resinous, medicinal leather. You have to be feeling particularly bold and self-assured to wear something with this level of chutzpah. I think I'll be able to pull it off in about 10 years time but for now... yeah, I think I'm good.
