Nevermore

In his work, poet Edgar Allan Poe, proclaims with a heavy heart his distress when faced withlosses, answering each happy memory with: “Nevermore”. “Ah, distinctly I remember itwas in the bleak December, and each separate dying ember wrought its ghost upon thefloor. Eagerly I wished the morrow ; vainly I had sought to borrow from my books surceaseof sorrow, sorrow for the lost Lenore, for the rare and radiant maiden whom the angels nameLenore Nameless here for nevermore.”Calligraphed with a raven quill from the recesses of “Night’s Plutonian Shore”, his poem TheRaven makes the concept of “now and forever” blossom, a true story steeped in legend.On the poet’s birthday, 19 January, a mysterious visitor leaves three red roses and a flaskof Cognac on Edgar Allan Poe’s tomb. An enigmatic gesture, beautiful in its gratuitousness,a dark, baroque universe, purple roses and amber liquid... The Frapin House has drawninspiration from this legend to create a new olfactory narration.
