New Fragrance: Illamasqua Freak Scarab (2013)


British makeup brand Illamasqua have launched a new perfume baptized Freak Scarab. It is their second release following up on Freak (2011) introducing a new composition whose only common olfactory signature with the former are the presence of a thick and dark davana note and queen of the night. Otherwise, the formula differs. Part of the name remains...

The name of the new scent takes inspiration from the strange, perpetual-and-proud-Halloween feel of the brand, alluding this time to a symbol of the Ancient Egyptians, the scarab or dung beetle embodying a cycle of eartly transformation paralelling heavenly transformation.

"Freak Scarab is the decadent new fragrance from Illamasqua. A unisex Extrait De Parfum, it enchants. Captivates. Corrupts."

"Let the age of indulgence be reborn"

You can also note that the famous vintage perfume base called "mousse de saxe" is featured in a modern adaptation form, which should be appealing to perfume wearers who prefer heftier fragrances like the Caron perfumes known for this famous perfumery base
