Keiko MecheriDatura Blanche

Opening with an airy, lemon-like freshness, Datura Blanche announces from the beginning that is going to focus on the delicate beauty of the datura flower – ethereal and alluring with a hint of spice. A watercolor wash of tuberose and heliotrope heighten the dreamy sweetness, while a dark splash of bitter almond draws out the intriguing, narcotic aspects that make datura so notoriously provocative. In this elegant composition, the dark side whispers seductively, but never overpowers the gossamer beauty of the white flowers. A luxurious bed of tonka and vanilla adds opulence and warmth. This has the luminous beauty of a moonlit garden – the white blooms glowing amid the velvety shadows.
