Got a score to settle with your Nan? Need to deodorise your car? Why not get a bottle of Hotel Slut? Etat Libre D'Orange perfumes are either cashed-up punk like Vivienne Westwood, or try-hard punk like Richard Branson when he reminds people how he used to hang out with Malcolm McLaren.
Choose from aromas such as ‘Don't Get Me Wrong Baby, I Don't Swallow' and ‘Jasmine and Cigarette' - which receives the ThreeThousand prize for best Frenglish blurb. "The slightly ‘jasminey' smell of a woman's skin when she exposes her freshness to the dark seduction of night...Nicotine woman or heroine, she is an icon, the woman one longs for."
Maybe they should make ‘McLaren pisse sur le tapis de Branson'. Anyway, watch out for me in the street, I will be exposing my freshness all weekend.
