Profumum has launched two new fragrances, Olibanum and Acqua Viva.
Olibanum is "stone walls, gothic archways, flickering candles and chanting voices", and includes notes of incense, myrrh, orange blossom and sandalwood.
Acqua Viva ~ "Find a lemon tree, pick a brilliant yellow fruit still warm from the sunshine, give it a gentle squeeze to release the oils in the rind, close your eyes and sniff – that is Acqua Viva." The notes feature Amalfi lemon, Sicilian broom flower, cypress and cedar.
Profumum Olibanum & Acqua Viva are $215 for 100 ml Eau de Parfum, and are available now at luckyscent.
Just tried a sample of AV the other day. Not exactly my style, but I must say that it smells just like the description.
It's clean, refreshing and simple. Perfect for the dog days of August.
Hugs!
Both of these are very tempting R! Hope to try them soon.
this line is a love or hate “thang” for me, but it has to be said olibanum is simply beautiful, its incensy accords are very true and weaves, as incense should, in and out of the other notes.
Of course its possibly that it works well on me as I have seen some quite negative reviews, which leave me scratching my head, but for me it is one in my far too big collection which will be a forever staple.
The box and wrapping are quite plain, which is fine by me and you get a funnel and atomiser with the purchase, not too pricey either considering a little goes a long way as silage is good.
