VFiles Femme, Homme & Sport ~ new fragrances

Posted by Robin on 18 December 2013 7 Comments

VFiles Homme, Femme & Sport scents

Vfiles, the online fashion community / social media / shopping site, has launched three fragrances: Femme, Homme and Sport. 

Femme ~ "With notes of lily, carnation, chrysanthemum and a hint of mahogany this scent is flirtatiously captivating and sure to leave him (or her) in a flurry of unquenched ardor."

Homme ~ "Sulk in this soothingly sweet sea salt aroma, with hints of carbonated water and white rose - fit for captain and first mate alike on high seas of modern manhood."

Sport ~ "With a touch of eucalyptus, this unisexy ozone fragrance is sure to wrap you in the abiding aroma of sensual steamroom sensations. Towels optional."

Vfiles Femme, Homme and Sport are $65 each for 50 ml at Vfiles.

    Are you going to review these? I’m interested in hearing what Homme is like.

      I seriously doubt it…I don’t have any way to get samples & am not likely to buy them unsniffed!

    Two observations:

    1. I must be older than their demographic, since I’ve never heard of VFiles,

    2. Is *every* unrelated-to-fragrance organization required to release perfumes these days?, and

    3. I am a snarky person, but I am weary of tongue-in-cheek advertising. Just give me a list of notes and go away.

    OK, make that 3. Three observations.

      1. Ditto.

      2. Yes!

      3. At least they did say what they might smell like! Take a look at Vince Camuto Femme, posted earlier today — it’s like they want to discourage any possible interest by only using the vaguest possible perfume-ad-copy sort of terms. They might as well have just said “smells good” and taken the afternoon off.

    I think it’s interesting that chrysanthemum is listed as a note in Femme… I feel like I haven’t seen that too often, although I’ve read that this is partially due to associations with this flower and funerals/death in some European countries. It’s in De Profundis, but Serge and Sheldrake obviously did that on purpose.

    Also, what does “carbonated water” as a note mean? Does that mean it has a fizzy quality?

      I’d guess fizzy, but really I have no idea.

    Trying to figure out what on earth a perfume ad copywriter is trying to convey is a task beyond us all…
