Aqua Di Parma Cipresso Di Toscana
Just imagine the sun on your back on an Italian country path, with nothing but the lazy buzz of an insect to break the silence and you’re practically there!
Aqua Di Parma has long set the standard in smelling good, especially when it comes to the brand’s ever-expanding Blu Mediterraneo collection. Here is Cipresso di Toscana that takes us to the cypress groves of Tuscany. The fragrance opens with exhilarating top notes of Star Anise and Elemi, refreshing like a lively breeze, combined with sparkling notes of Orange and Petit Grain. At the heart of the composition, Sage and Lavender bring an aromatic note while balsamic notes of Cypress and Pine create the deep base and evoke the sensation of tranquil wellbeing.
Burberry Mr. Burberry Indigo
Fresh and invigorating, like a breath of the crisp, bracing air of the British seaside!
Burberry is honoured to present the true English man, a devoted Londoner, a man of contrasts, classic, yet contemporary, sophisticated and sensual, escaping from city seeking for freedom; here is the latest Mr. Burberry Indigo. A fresh and energetic citrus woody, reminiscent of crispy air along the British coast. An invigorating citrus woody fragrance. A veritable breath of fresh air. The fragrance opens with top notes of Lemon Oil, Blackcurrant and Rosemary. At the heart it follows up with Green Violet Leaf, Driftwood Accord and Spearmint Oil and finally bases with Dry Amber Accord, White Oak Moss and Musk.
Tom Ford Costa Azzura Acqua
The pure love of the Italian Riviera runs deep this summer!
Imagine a wild and secluded pine-fringed cove, waves lapping gently at the shoreline, a single yacht bobbing in the distance, and the mix of salty, sun-warmed skin in the air. That is actually what Costa Azzura Acqua smells like. A harmony of sea and land; the fusion of salty sea waves, cool air and beachy woods. Combining refreshing salty waves with the warmth of the sun, the fragrance opens with a ripe splash of Lemon, Juniper and Myrtle before diving into a heart of crisp and earthy Cypress and Pine Needles. The exhilarating scent settles on a rich bed of Labdanum, Amber and Lentisque.
Hermes Un Jardin Sur La Lagune
The garden collection is like discovering someone’s travel album!
You may never have been to India during the monsoon, journeyed up the Nile, or visited the roof garden above the French label’s Paris headquarters, but with newest Un Jardin Sur La Lagune by Hermes a scented portrait of the Venetian lagoon, features flowering magnolia and Madonna lily and a salty, aquatic edge. It’s like carrying a little piece of paradise around with you all this summer.
Bvlgari Wood Essence
The strong expressions that ties between the city and nature!
Bridging urban life and wide open spaces, the new fragrance of Bvlgari Wood Essence reconnects a man with his own inner strength and creates balance. A modern man that loves natural environments. It combines an accord of woods – wood barks, resins and essences – mixed with spicy notes. Italian citrus zest along with coriander leaf gives a fresh, green character in the opening, leading to an intense woody cypress, vetiver and cedar accord based on benzoin resins.
