Dublin-based niche line Roads has launched five new fragrances: Art Addict, End Game, Flower Mountain, Fool Around and Unsaid.
Art Addict ~ "Surprising and sophisticated. Art Addict is a fragrance inspired by the heady lustre and conceptual drive of the international contemporary art world. Unpredictable and immediately captivating notes of Green Apple and Pink Fresia blend with flowery accents of Dewy Violet and Wild Orris, folded with sensual Amber and Musks."
End Game ~ "This fragrance reflects the halls of power and the corporate chess game of position and influence. A calm and strategic mind frame. A singular meeting of vibrant Bergamot and Clary Sage with a warm woody accord, along with enjoyable vibes of Vetiver and Musk."
Flower Mountain ~ "A scent of flowers on a dreamlike afternoon. Taking you higher up a fantasy mountain, where you wander and remember nothing. A mysterious and joyful flowery accord of Orange Blossom, Violet and Jasmine, with vibrant hints of Liquorice and Green notes, melting on a reassuring dry down with woody and leathery accents."
Fool Around ~ "Fool around - let yourself go. it’s all about now. A fragrance based on the exhilarating connection of people when all senses are heightened and the world comes alive. A radiant wake of Mandarine and Frosted Petals meet a delicate though generous floral accord of Waterlily, Tiger Orchid and Pink Magnolia. Then, an intriguing connection of Crisp Amber, Velvet Sandalwood and Marine Accord."
Unsaid ~ "The moments that shaped everything. All was understood in a single instinctual intimate glance. Those moments that remain unsaid yet resonate and, like a scent, linger. Unique and magnetic, an olfactory accord that creates an aura of confidence with its accents of Acai, Cyclamen, Patchouli and Tuscan Leather."
Roads Art Addict, End Game, Flower Mountain, Fool Around and Unsaid can be pre-ordered now at Barneys, $155 each for 50 ml Parfum.

Flower Mountain and Unsaid sounds kinda interesting.
Not sure about the bottle tho.
Flower Mountain is a great name, too.
These sound like celebuscents. What a shame.
How so? To me they just sound like perfumespeak in general (and like good illustrations of the idea that there isn’t much difference between mainstream and niche) but didn’t think of celebrities.
While I don’t love the bottles or the price I love the reference to chess in End Game….
This isn’t fair because I haven’t seen them in person but those bottles look to me like they contain deodorant.
I have to say, I rather like the bottles. Nice and simple!
