The Architecture
Bertrand Duchaufour's third composition for The Different Company's Collection Excessive started out with what he dubs a�Sinbad accord��: star fruit on a tree in the sun, with apricot-y freesia accents and a touch of juicy, melon-y green... Topped off with a flash of aged rum, this�Nomadic Dawn�� could well be the name of a tropical cocktail sipped in a banana grove � the�banana flower�� accord conjured with ylang-ylang � while plumerias waft in the distance... The burn of the rum and spices, bolstered with davana and immortelle, creates a sharp contrast with the thirst-quenching coolness of the fruity-aquatic notes. But this is no chichi, fancy-resort drink: picture Robert Mitchum handing it to Jane Russell in a sarong with a deep-pitched growl. Tough yet sophisticated tropicalia, and pretty much the next best thing to living it up on a Pacific Island.
