As previously reported, Comme des Garçons will launch two fragrances inspired by their Guerilla store concept. A few more details on the scents:
For Guerrilla 1, Marie-Aude Couture (Givaudan) was inspired by one such store, in a former butcher's shop in Berlin, Germany, she tells Cosmeticnews.com. The scent is constructed around a heart of champaca flower, with spicy and vetiver notes, and is intended to evoke the smells of a butcher's world. Guerrilla 2, signed Nathalie Feisthauer (also of Givaudan), is inspired by the color red, reflected in its packaging. It opens with bergamot, pink pepper and ginger, has a heart of red chili pepper, turmeric, raspberry and tuberose. (via cosmeticnews) Update: see a review of the Comme des Garçons Guerilla fragrances.
Coty has launched a new fragrance under the L'Aimant brand, Caresse d'Orchidee:
Presented in the familiar L'Aimant flacon, the blush-coloured scent has top notes of bergamot, orange blossom and blackcurrant with a floral heart of red rose, jasmine, ylang ylang, green hyacinth, white lily, orchid, orris and white rose petals. The base notes are vanilla, sandalwood, oak moss and vetyver. (via cosmeticsinternational)

'Kauai waterfalls accord? Oxygenated water accord? Rice fields accord? ” Uh huh. Sure. What next, a used accordion? But on the other hand, what a beautiful bottle.
LOL! It is a pretty bottle. I liked the original one for MK Island too.
Sea & Sun in Cadaques is the perfect summer perfume. I use it every summer.
I've never tried it, but I love that bottle!
I just received Fiji today, after searching long and hard for a bottle. i must say, I am rather disappointed. I was hoping for something a lot more summery. Guess I will have to wait until it is sunnier outside and I am not wearing another perfume underneath. Haven’t tried Bermuda yet, but I think Hawaii is the best so far.
I liked Hawaii best too.
