Buy Avenue de l'Opéra Mademoiselle Simone is walking
down the avenue de l'Opéra.
She is still filled with emotion after
just seeing Carmen for the first time.
While walking through the Parisian night,
she thinks of the tragic conclusion
of the final scene. When the heavy,
red velvet curtains closed,
Mademoiselle Simone could detect
the feverish scent of passion.
Still now, in the heat
of the night air of the city,
there is an intoxicating perfume of sensuality.
The fatal fragrance of thwarted love
created by combining steaming
seduction with burning desire.
