Nobile 1942 – Il Giardino delle Delizie ml.75 – Profumo
The representation of human vices.
The second fragrance takes us to ‘The Garden of Earthly Delights’ by Hieronymus Bosh exhibited at the El Prado Museum in Madrid. This triptych is considered a masterpiece of surrealism due to its complex symbolism: humanity is represented, according to the Christian doctrine of the Middle Ages, with all its vices and perversions in a satirical depiction of human sins.
On the outer panels, visible when the triptych is closed, God appears at the top in the act of creation: the world is represented as a transparent sphere. When opened, the triptych is revealed in its grandiose beauty.
The panel that inspired the second fragrance of Paradise Lost is the central one, where pleasures and love are represented: exotic animals to represent lust, a multitude of naked figures, some in erotic abandon, others in chrysalis form, are fed by birds carrying cherries and strawberries in their beaks, fruits with aphrodisiac properties.
In the third panel, the scene is transformed into a demonic concert: musical instruments become means of inflicting suffering and pain.
An olfactory representation of the contrasts in the triptych.
