White Whale

  • FRUITY
  • UNDEFINABLE

Masque Milano's official description for White Whale calls it "a story of a dark and rugged life at sea." Sure, if Lisa Frank's smiling orcas are your definition of "dark and rugged."

"Stepping back and smelling the Masque Milano’s White Whale now, it is a chamber piece of ambergris, violets and olibanum, with rivulets of saltwater hurrying along the wood planks of the Pequod. This combination is so beautiful and so compelling that I raise my wrist over and over at frequent intervals. The next day, wearing something sensible to the office, I am caught by a memory of violets and ambergris that call like a siren from their glass vial across the city. White Whale haunts. As I raise my wrist to my nose over and over, enraptured by White Whale’s beauty but sad that it, like Moby Dick, is the last of its kind, I realize that Alori has quite cleverly and poignantly captured the novel’s theme of obsession."
