FALL OF PHAETON Perfume by Argos for for women and men. FALL OF PHAETON fragrance, a captivating addition to the Argos Fragrances Artist Series, draws inspiration from the dramatic and dynamic style of Flemish Baroque painter Peter Paul Rubens. Known for his emphasis on movement, color, and sensuality, Rubens' influence is intricately woven into this aromatic creation.
When Phaeton, the son of Helios, stepped into the sun god's chariot, he lost control. The horses, driven wild, scorched and froze the earth. Zeus responded by striking Phaeton with a devastating thunderbolt. Rubens depicts Phaeton cast down from Helios' golden chariot, his hair on fire, mirroring a blazing earth, surrounded by terrified horses and deities of the seasons responsible for the laws and order of time.
