Versace has added six new fragrances to the luxury Atelier Versace collection: Encens Suprême, Fleur de Maté, Gingembre Pétillant, Iris d’Élite, Safran Royal and Tabac Imperial.
Encens Suprême ~ "Encens Suprême presents a mystical journey where the incense burns naturally. The scent starts with a smoky accord where coriander, associated with the clean aspect of cashmere wood, embraces the imperial character of African incense and the depth of Spanish cistus."
Fleur de Maté (shown, but all the bottles are the same) ~ "Fleur de Maté is a concentration of magnetic energy of the darkest and most mysterious woods. Atlas cedarwood blends with patchouli and cypriol, in a celebration of Earth and nature. Maté absolute underlines deep and intense aspects of the fragrance, characterized by smoky and leathery tones. The balsamic facets of cistus envelope precious notes of incense."
Gingembre Pétillant ~ "Full of bright contrasts, Gingembre Pétillant is designed by master perfumier Jordi Fernandez, who draws inspiration from the intricacies of Middle Eastern traditional scents. The luminous red ginger from Laos is complemented with the heart made of white blooms. Finally, the perfume is uplifted with a praline accord intensified by warm vanilla."
Iris d’Élite ~ "Standing out for its dry woody notes, Iris d’Élite is exalted by a sparkling touch of spice that highlights the scent’s powdery feel. Italian tradition’s most noble flower, the iris, exudes sumptuousness – delicate petals get their warmth from a fusion with tonka beans and musky amber tones."
Safran Royal ~ "Safran Royal is the unique interpretation of the rare and precious character of the most expensive spice in the world – saffron. The spicy scent is refreshed with bittersweet Moroccan wormwood, leading to an enriching mix of leather and amber olfactory notes. Indian cypriol, Indonesian patchouli and Spanish cistus add a unique touch to the fragrance."
Tabac Imperial ~ "A sublimation of tobacco absolute, the Tabac Imperial is enriched with the gourmand facets of Provence honey and the amber tones of benzoin. Everlasting absolute adds an unmistakable aromatic shade. Refined and elegant woods, patchouli and cypriol, enhance the depth and character of the perfume. The rich fragrance was envisioned by perfumer Marie Salamagne, with an aim to embody the brand’s artistry and craftsmanship."
Atelier Versace Encens Suprême, Fleur de Maté, Gingembre Pétillant, Iris d’Élite, Safran Royal and Tabac Imperial are available now at Ounass in Dubai, in 100 ml Eau de Parfum.

Some of these sound good! What is up though with a new launch with SIX perfumes?
These days it’s just good business sense, even if it’s artistically bankrupt. Six scents take up six times the room on the shelves, and if a customer likes the brand and the packaging but not a specific scent, you can still sell them one of the others.
I hate it but I can see the business logic.
I think that’s right. It gets more attention in stores AND I think there’s a sense in which it does the same online, too — they get more media coverage.
Also many of them are presented as layerable, so hey, buy more than one 🙂
I wanted to try the first 6, but my Saks did not ever get them:/
Ah. Then I guess you might not see these either. I never saw any of them…
