Majda Bekkali- Mon Nom est Rouge perfume review
Just having watched “The New Pope” and still being under the spell of Bigazzi’s flawless cinematography, today I felt the need for the right olfactory set of lenses to watch the world through.
Enter Mon Nom est Rouge: same as with Biggazzi’s images, you can freeze-frame this fragrance’s development at any second – and it’s still a picture-perfect example of a perfectly composed, bathed in the right kind of all-natural light, bright focus on the main player – intricate but never too much – artistic type of wizardry. And it punctuates, with red, the whole tender love affair between incense and spices.

A note from the brand:
“I am on the petals of roses and on the wounds of war.
My name is red.
I am scarlet or carmine. I embody desire, passion, seduction and strength.
I reveal myself and catch the eye.
But what does being a colour really mean?
If you had to describe me to a person blind from birth, what would you say?
Well, you see, I am primarily a feeling.
If I were a fabric, I would be velvet.
If I were a flavour, I would fill the mouth with a taste of flesh and blood.
And if I were a perfume?
I would be both powerful and enveloping, vivid, scandalous and enchanting; I would be reassuring and narcotic, majestic and hypnotic.
