A little taste of summer

Ah, here comes summer just around the corner!
So, for those of you who no longer appreciate the harshness of winter and its too-warm amber scents, we have put together a small selection of our, and hopefully your, summer fragrances…

SUMMER SELECTION
1969
for a sweet escape
Colours of a warm sun heating up the pavement and blinding the eye, a peach and chocolate accord, a lactonic sweetness that reminds us of sweet, suntan bodies on the beach. A touch of clove peppers up a never-sickly heart, a drop of rose and white flowers brings it an extra touch of distinction. A sophisticated pleasure, both regressive and distinguished, with its crackly cardamom and languid coffee.
1969 is neither candy nor treat – it is a bit of both.
THIS IS NOT A BLUE BOTTLE 1/.2
for a bright sunny day
On the watery and transparent whiteness of a base of Hedione and Musk, an Ylang-Ylang and Lilac accord pops. The first is devoid of any animalic inflexions and offer a solar and narcotic profile whilst the second, met with the bubbly freshness of a Lily of the Valley stem, softens with pastel hues a luminous overture of citrusy ivy.
1/.2 lives, sparkles, is modern and timeless and makes the pleasure of sunny days last.
1725
for a refined night out
A unisex fougère, on its downy base of sweet vanilla, powdery coumarin and cloudlike musks blooms a gentle, well balanced heart where the freshness of Bergamot and Lavender lights up the leathery stickiness of a gourmand Licorice accord.
1725 is a sophisticated signature for everyone to wear.
