Designer Agnès b released her first fragrance, le b, in 1987. For 2007, she has asked perfumer Olivia Giacobetti to rework that fragrance taking as inspiration a holiday theme: sun, fresh cotton, laziness, white sand, white flowers, wrinkled linen.

The outcome includes notes of orange blossom, citron leaves, watermelon seeds and jasmine. The new le b will be available in 30 ml Eau de Toilette at Le Club des Createurs de Beaute, who most unfortunately stopped shipping to the United States some time ago. Perhaps it will be at the Agnès b boutiques as well? (via aufeminin)
