Salvador Dali will launch Purplelips this September:
The perfumers for this latest venture were Antoine Lie and Guillaume Flavigny of Givaudan and notes include blueberry, crocus, purple granadilla, violet, lilac, vanilla orchid, amber, sandalwood and musk. The bottle is the typical Dali block of glass sculpted with five pairs of lips, this time in a transparent purple colour. (via cosmeticsintl)

Purple Lips – now there's a unique name, huh? Note of blueberry too? Not sure I've ever experienced blueberry in a perfume before, that I can think of. This goes on my list as something I'd like to try. But I wonder who will be carrying it?
You know, I have never seen a Salvador Dali fragrance in a brick n mortar store in the US — if one of the major department stores carries them, hope someone will comment and let us know. But they are easily found at the online discounters.
I'm waiting for 'Skinny, Greasy Mustache,' the projected fall release by Salvadore Dali perfumes, a kind of perfumed portrait homage to the nutty artist.
LOL! I can picture the bottle now.
