Au Pink Flamingo is like a nod to a swanky roaring 20's nightclub. There is a nostalgic, melancholic mix of cigar ashes, black coffee and starchy orris powder, as though you leaned in to whisper sweet nothings into the ear of a flapper and could smell the cake makeup on her face. Cumin hints at body heat or human skin. There is no sugar in the coffee, which seems like foreshadowing of the events of the evening. A thought-provoking and Gatsby-esque fragrance, if there ever was one.
Each bottle comes with a beautiful matching scarf.
From the brand: Au Pink Flamingo (At Pink Flamingo)
She was bathing in the red lights near the piano bar
Whisky was running in the glasses on the counter
Tonight again, she was singing about love and hope
With a lost look among men and mirrors
It was dark and neon lights would light up the night
At Pink Flamingo’s she was dreaming of stars
A man in black entered and stopped near the corridor
When she stopped singing, he offered her a drink
He told her that every meeting happens for a reason
That she could follow him, that it was never too late
That he would wait for her at sunrise near the old lighthouse
When she walked on leaving the dark night behind her
A group of flamingos flew off the promontory
