Description
Parfum Prissana Chetyre (Extrait de Parfum) is an olfactory film experience inspired by Ilya Khrzhanovsky’s 2004 cult film. It is a daring journey of discovery into truth, illusion, and the brutality of existence, dreamt into perfume. Like the film, Chetyre moves along the sharp line between the banal and the grotesque, forcing the wearer to confront both beauty and discomfort in equal measure.
Chetyre’s opening is shocking: the cold shock of aldehydes and galbanum acts like fluorescent light on peeling wallpaper. It seems sterile, yet unsettling, radiating a false light. The structure quickly cracks, with lavender and lavandin appearing not as soothing herbs, but as nervous tics twitching against a metallic background.
Then Parfum Prissana Chetyre dives even deeper. The Cuir de Russie accord dominates: smoky birch tar, leather, animalic and uncompromising, evoking Soviet brutality and the raw intimacy of flesh. Mushroom and amber penetrate it like the smell of damp concrete cellars, while pine needles, black spruce, and fir balsam evoke the harshness of the Russian landscape —vast yet isolating.
Mimosa, rose, and vetiver offer a fleeting tenderness, though it is always overshadowed by tar, oakmoss, and musk. Vanilla and orris butter whisper seduction, but this seduction is coupled with unease – intimate yet distrustful, much like the film’s changing characters.
As Chetyre dries down, it settles into a broken harmony: resinous trees, ghostly flowers, smoke-soaked leather. Chetyre is provocative, unsettling, and utterly captivating. An avant-garde tribute to extreme cinema. A perfume for those who believe that art should be as disturbing as it is joyful.
