Combat, 1953:"Fath de Fath - two sharp notes of vetiver and citron bark dominate a muted symphony where we recognize tea rose, jasmine, violet, cedar, gardenia and precious woods. The bedroom of des Essientes or Renée Vivien. Decor of a charming and desired aesthetic. Elegant disorder where, in the muffled light, a bottle of whiskey, the cards of a "patience", a preciously brocaded scarf, gloves, a baroque jewel, gold reliefs, singular tableaus and whispering voices still linger."
