Baldessarini (Hugo Boss) will launch Strictly Private for men this coming January. The new fragrance is geared towards the "upper class man" and the "glitterati", who know the "true meaning of luxury"; Strictly Private will be fronted by actor/model Werner Schreyer.
The woody oriental scent features notes of bergamot, basil, juniper, pink pepper, patchouli, vetiver, fir balsam, rose, cedar, creme brulee, vanilla and amber.
Baldessarini Strictly Private will be available in 50 and 90 ml Eau de Toilette and in matching grooming products. (via cosmoty.de, parfuemerie-thiemann.de)
UK clothing retailer Monsoon has launched an eponymous signature fragrance for women. The Monsoon fragrance was created in collaboration with Bronnley:
Sophisticated and elegant. Monsoon combines top notes of Neroli and Bergamot with the delicate sweetness of lychee for an exotic fruity infusion. Fresh floral undertones of Bougainvillea Petal combined with Moroccan Rose Oil are complemented with base notes of eastern spice and hot amber oils to add underlying warmth and a sensual feel.
The Monsoon fragrance is available in 30, 50 and 100 ml Eau de Toilette and in matching body products. (via bronnley.co.uk, monsoon.co.uk)
omg I want the Monsoon perfume!!!!
Ich muss durch den Monsun
Hope you'll get some then!
What will TH name their perfume when they come out with one?
Because I'm pretty sure they want to milk the song for all its worth
I think they have an advent calender and they just came out with a makeup set (???) so a perfume will probably be next.
but I have a question- What are some perfumes that distinctly have patchouli but are floral?
What is TH??
How about Tom Ford White Patchouli? Or one of the Angel Garden scents, or L'Artisan Voleur de Roses, among others.
My sister knows she wants something floral but the only note she knows she likes is patchouli
The first thing she tried was White Patchouli and she didn't like it.
I have a Voleur de Roses sample on the way so I'll let her try that. I'm also getting Dzongkha and Timbuktu, which aren't what she says she wants but she could be surprised.
Actually, I think the Josef Statkus perfume has the right list of notes, so I'll have to try to get a sample of that, too.
TH is my favorite band but everyone who doesn't like them haaates them so I just type TH to avoid inciting anger.
I've heard the lead singer smells really good and if *I* was a perfumer I could make him the fiercest perfume ever, but if they were to release a perfume it would probably smell like the Pirates of the Caribbean perfume that I smelled this weekend.
For some reason they keep insisting on embarrassing me by doing things like releasing makeup sets
The lead singer's makeup always look fierce though

Never heard of the band, sorry!
What other fragrances does your sister like?

Voleur de Roses is my new favorite juice. I've been wearing it every day since purchasing it a week ago. It's amazing stuff. I love patchouli too.
I checked out the lead singer, his hair is very retro from the 80's, especially the lead singer from the Alarm. Spiked all over the place.
they aren't even really known in the US. Their biggest song is Monsoon and every time they come to a new country they like to pretend that its brand new and it has gotten pretty old by now
but anyway…
My sister has only tried White Patchouli and Black Orchid
She liked Black Orchid but not White Patchouli.
I tried a few others and she kind of semi-smelled them but didn't like them. Sephora's selection isn't that great though
Not much to go on, then…let us know if she finds any winners.
