ZOMG Smells General Catalog Perfume Oil (Available)
Lord Alfred Douglas is best remembered as Bosie, Oscar Wilde's famously terrible boyfriend and almost certainly the beautiful, unreliable model for Dorian Grey. When Bosie caught the flu, Wilde nursed him back to health; once recovered, Bosie went off to enjoy life. Wilde came down with it next; instead of returning the favor, Bosie sent his hotel bill on Wilde's birthday. They fought and parted several times, but Wilde kept coming back.
What did Wilde see in him?
Part of the attraction was probably the challenge of winning Bosie's attention. He was not a caretaker type, and his was not an unconditional love. It had to be attracted, must be enticed, and it could not be caught and held — it could only be enjoyed while it lasted.
This is a fresh, enticing scent that makes you want to inhale a little more deeply and try to catch the elusive hint of formal gardens, romantic hedge mazes, the old-fashioned masculine of lavender, the palest of musks, and a sharp, spicy green galbanum that hints at an untamed heart beneath the lightly sugared surface.
