D.S. & Durga's Gateau Blackout is the first part of perfumer David’s Perfume Quest! series and this limited-edition perfume was created for Joe Talbot, lead singer of IDLES.
The scent was inspired by dark times and conveys "the fruit of friendship flowers like a hunk of Black Forest cake." With decadent notes of black cherry, incense and snow pine, Gateau Blackout leads into a rich experience with cocoa, jasmine and orris absolute at its heart. Finally, the fragrance is grounded in fireplace, vanilla and friend's musk.
This new release from the niche fragrance house is a floral fruity gourmand scent that will speak to those who savor the decadent interplay of sweet, juicy fruits and lush floral notes, and desire to be enveloped in the comforting richness of indulgent desserts.
