La Foncedalle
Regular price $ 65.00Versatile Paris pushes the gourmand category into uncharted territory with a midnight munchie-themed composition starring a (vegan) roasted chicken accord! Created in collaboration with AmĂ©lie Bourgeouis and Margaux Le-Paih GuĂ©rin of the independent, women-owned perfume studio FLAIR, Versatile founding creative director Coralie FrĂ©bourg takes us back to the dorm days â or maybe a hazy boho dinner party â with a buttery blend of aromatic "herbs", fresh beer and an indulgent basting of roasty-toasty rotisserie magic. And believe it or not, La Foncedalle is as wearable as the night is long.
From Versatile Paris
Weed. Aromatic. Beer. Fresh. Sage. Chicken. Roasted. Butter. Musky.
Our perfumers have created an ultra-faceted and truly unique "Neo-FougĂšre." For the first time in a fragrance, an original triptych: weed, beer and roasted chicken (vegan). A salty, fresh and warm combination that is sensual, appetizing and intoxicating. Deliciously addictive.
Perfumers
Amélie Bourgeois, Margaux Le-Paih Guérin
FYI
Roll-on Extrait de Parfum oil 15ml. 30% concentration. Vegan. Unisex.

The description was so funny, I had to smell it. It. Smells. Really. Good.
And it IS surprisingly wearable. I like the herby, buttery, peppery top notes and how it mellows out to something quite smoky, soft, and warm. The amount of ingredients/notes is massive for this perfume and it all works together so nicely.
Im not usually into gourmands, sweetness is overwhelming but I do like this savory gourmand. Feels very unisex, and Iâve worn it everyday for a few weeks.
