Pauley Pavilion, Los Angeles, 1992. Off script, the barely sketched chords from the guitar and voice of Nirvana's leader, Kurt Cobain, shake up the MTV Music Awards, marking a gene ration's rebellion against the establishment, censored in their cry for liberation. Black Powder is an unprecedented olfactory melody, made of interrupted sounds, volumes at maximum, discordant notes, as disruptive as a bullet aimed at the conformist consciousness homogenized to now-legitimized excesses, incapable of understanding Nirvana's social poetics. It is the bold, provocative sound born from guitars in Seattle's garages. The fragrance strikes with the grace of its original and powerful style, on a leather accord the acoustic notes of blackcurrant and the rebellious and spicy ones of pimento. The crispy scent of apple is the romantic and bohemian accent of Kurt Cobain's soul that explodes in an intense, deep, sensual and mysterious fragrance.
