Carven C’Est Paris Pour Homme

Historic fashion house Carven was founded in 1945 by Marie-Louise Carven (31 August 1909 – 8 June 2015). Since 1946, French Maison Carven has been making timeless, enchanting perfumes for women and men. Being inspired by the history of the Maison and its DNA, Carven opens a new chapter based on elegance and simplicity. More then 70 years after the iconic ‘Ma Griffe’ and ‘Vëtiver perfumes were released, Carven is impressing us once again with its intoxicating charm and stylish spirited perfumes. And the olfactive adventure continues with the new masculine fragrances Carven C’Est Paris! A bold and elegant perfume for men in search for experiences and new sensations.

A creation in the tradition of Carven’s signature scent for men to reinvent it… A fresh and addictive hazelnut shakes up the timeless violet leaf with crispy green facets.

Aurelien Guichard, perfumer

This new chapter for the French fashion house takes Carven Man’s composition and twists it around with its impertinent wake where classic elegance meets modern daring. The result is a whole new fragrance, not a flanker. A chic yet distinguished fragrance created by the very talented Aurélien Guichard (Takasago) and built around a fresh and addictive hazelnut, shaking up the timeless violet leaf with crispy green facets. A highly contrasting fragrance that unfolds from an aromatic freshness to a creamy wake.

When the classic elegance of the Violet Leaf meets the bold modernity of the Hazelnut. The softness of hazelnut is wrapped in creamy sandalwood and potent woods to give it a powerful sillage. Rosemary and cypress accentuate violet leaf’s green facets to create a crispy, modern tonality. The softness of hazelnut is enfolded in creamy sandalwood and potent woods to give an absolutely addictive and powerful sillage

An architectural silhouette reflected by the light. A play of textures. With a deep and hypnotic dark, the flacon embodies the power and personality of the fragrance.

Like earlier fragrances of the Maison, Carven C’Est Paris! Pour Homme comes in another stunning flacon, designed by the iconic Thierry de Baschmakoff (The Different Company). Carven is a very respectable perfume maker, but even if it wasn’t, certainly the flacons would still make the fragrances objects to die for! Carven: C’Est Paris! Pour Homme is no different.

Carven C’Est Paris! Pour Homme is available as 30, 50 and 100ml Eau de Toilette. The new fragrance comes with a matching grooming products: an After Shave Spray (100ml), After Shave Balm (200ml), Shower Gel (200ml) and a Deodorant Spray (150ml).

Carven C’Est Paris! Pour Homme is available at selected stores worldwide. Come into the beautiful world of Carven.

Mauboussin In Red

French Maison Mauboussin was founded in 1827 by the French jeweler M. Rocher and his cousin Baptiste Noury. They established a retail store in Paris. After the Great War, the sense of equality was stronger than ever. This was a time when the Maison flourished providing ample attention to women’s jewelry.

From the ‘Reflections’ line started in the 1930’s up to the contemporary designs, Mauboussin jewelry remains a highly desired brand by many collectors. Over the years, there have been many exhibitions with different themes organized by Mauboussin. While the 1920s and 1930s were the best era for the promotion of emerald, ruby and diamond themes, the 1940s and 1950s asserted the style of the French Maison which resulted in the creation of beautiful pieces in a completely new style. The 1950s, on the other hand, marked the arrival of the Naturalist themes and the sense of movement and dynamism.

Mauboussin opened a boutique with display windows on the famous Place of Vendôme and started offering high-quality jewelry in a more moderate price range. In the 1980s, the focus was on the contrast between light and shadow. All of the shapes were created to suggest sensations which appealed to their clientele.

A new area began when, in the same decade, the Maison started to design and manufacture exquisite watches for men and women. It was the year 2000 that that saw the launch of the jewelers first fragrance, the self-titled Mauboussin for Women. From its launch, this fragrance is the Maison’s signature and has been loved by many women.

The celebration of 20 years since the launch of the first Mauboussin fragrance has been marked with a new creation that honors the iconic flacon and the most popular fragrance of the French Maison. The first Mauboussin fragrance, composed by perfumer Christine Nagel, is still known today for its fantastic, dense, and intense, dark-oriental, plum-spicy composition, with its famous cabochon diamond-shaped flacon that was created by Thierry de Baschmakoff.

Created by perfumer Ilias Ermenidis, Mauboussin in Red is a brilliant and poetic creation that, with its fruity aromas, creates an additive effect using a blend of red apple, sparkling black currants, and sparkling bergamot. The heart pays tribute to the red and passionate signature of the new creation with a mixture of Bulgarian rose and red peonies, slightly sweetened with a fruity touch of nectarines. The warm, lightly gourmand and milky wooden signature is created of ambrox, sweet pralines and milky wood. As the brand states.

The new creation is joyous, addictive, and absolutely feminine. Mauboussin in Red will be available as a 100ml Eau de Parfum. Come into the beautiful world of Mauboussin.

 

 

 

 

Eau Parfumée au Thé Bleu

Bulgari has made a new addition to their tea inspired collection of fragrances. Eau Parfumée au Thé Bleu will become the fourth fragrance in the Tea collection following Eau Parfumee au Thé Vert (for many years my favo!), Eau Parfumee au Thé Blanc and Eau Parfumee au Thé Rouge.

Developed by perfumer Daniela Andrier, the fragrance features notes of Oolong tea (Chinese Fujian tea), combined with blue tea, iris blossom and classic lavender. It will be presented in a glass flacon made from frozen glass designed by Thierry de Baschmakoff.

These scents are great in summer, for men and women. But they are perfect after a long hard day at work.

Bulgari Eau Parfumée au Thé Bleu will be available as Eau de Cologne in 75 and 150 ml flacons. The fragrance will also be available in a range of body and home fragrance products this summer.
