Lulu by Alban Berg: Operatic Parallel of Slutty (non-derogatory) Powerhouses

This smells incredible but very different pre and post 2003. A powerhouse. We are pro-slut here please! We ❤️ slutty smell

For pre-2003 it is a sparkling fruity jasmine/iris bomb. The combo is lovely. They skimp on the iris later….as well as the more expensive smelling fruity accords at the top.

“Roll up, roll up for the menagerie, Gentlemen and ladies. Fire your desire and chill your spines At the sight of animal savagery, Tamed by human sympathy. What can you see in plays – or music dramas?! Tame creatures, that are so well-bred and moral, Their milky diet kills all savage quarrel. They revel in their bourgeois tête-à-tête, Just like the audience in the stalls, I bet! The real beast, the sleek and savage beast, Ladies I’ll show you, come and join the feast! You’ll see the tiger, who delights in eating Any old beast that strays into its path, The bear who just stuffs its greedy belly, And then collapses through its gluttony! You’ll see the nimble and the cheeky monkey Who languidly displays his artful talent; Although he’s skilled, he lacks all gravitas – That’s why he always loves to show his arse. And then I’ll show you this to make you laugh – The hump-backed camel on its comic path! A reptile you’ll behold, an alligator, A cobra, lizard and a rare salamander. You’ll see a crocodile to make you quake. (He suddenly lifts the curtain and calls within:) Hey, you there, go and fetch our human snake! (A big-bellied stage-hand carries the performer who is to play Lulu in front of the curtain and puts her down in front of the animal-tamer. She wears the Pierrot costume of the next scene.) God created her for evil and for havoc, To snare us and seduce us, to infect us And to destroy us, never leaving finger prints. (tickling Lulu under the chin) My sweetest beast, pray do not be so prim! You have no right, with your seductive fragrance, To falsify a woman’s real essence. (to the audience) Though now she seems as tame as tame can be, Just wait and see her beastliness.”
