Roger & Gallet will launch Eau de Lotus Bleu (Blue Lotus), a "fragrant water" created by perfumer Alberto Morillas, in March in France, late 2006 in the US. The fragrance...
... is described as a fresh solar and opens with citrus notes of mandarine and neroli and is built around a heart of lotus extracted through the headspace process, rose and orange blossom. The base includes patchouli, sandal wood and incense. (via cosmeticnews)
Additional notes include bergamot, pear, watermelon, ylang ylang and iris.
Ooo, this one sounds lovely! I hope you're able to sample it and report back!
I am not very hopeful…I've been looking for one of the scents that they released last year and had no luck at all. The only stores I know that have R & G seem to only carry the old standbys 🙁
I tried the perfume in a shop and I will buy it soon. It is very well balanced and lovely, you smell the citrus first and then suttle mix that is the perfume. You might say that the smell is modest – in the true meaning of the word – that is: it doesn't stick out, but is aware of its inner quality and class.
Still have never seen it anywhere to try — glad you like it!
