Invictus Aqua, Paco Rabanne’s new seductive athlete

Already released in 2015, Invictus Aqua is revisited this year 2018.

The history of men is very often linked to that of sport. It is a discipline that they are particularly fond of and that they appreciate more specifically for the values ​​it conveys: perseverance, determination and surpassing oneself. Embodying this image taken to its climax, Paco Rabanne’s Invictus perfume never ceases to be talked about. Since its release in 2013, it has already gained a lot of followers. Today it returns in a new format called Invictus Aqua.

Invictus Aqua, a scent similar to salty skin

Invictus Aqua is not diametrically opposed to its predecessors. It also retains their intense freshness and extreme vitality. However, it plays more on contrasts and thus creates a real olfactory shock wave. It begins with a frosty grapefruit-based bitterness. This exceptional dynamism is also enriched by an iodine wave. Moreover, this maritime effect is further amplified by the presence of salty ambergris. Invictus Aqua expresses all its virility and power thanks to an overdose of amber woods. The result is a masculine juice with intense freshness. The marine accord that runs through the whole of Invictus Aqua, meanwhile, gives the effect of a salty skin that could not be more sensual. The result would become almost orgasmic! Invictus Aqua literally contrasts with traditional masculine writing. Its textured construction gives us a trail that is both fresh and infinitely racy.

The return of Paco Rabanne’s trophy bottle

This invigorating fragrance intends to accompany you in all your daily exploits. To symbolize this message in the best possible way, Paco Rabanne has decided to present us once again Invictus Aqua in a trophy-shaped bottle. The latter rests on a stable base and is loaded with two metallic handles, perfectly matched to its vaporizer cabochon. The transparent glass of Invictus Aqua nevertheless displays a more bluish gradient than before. Thus, Invictus Aqua seems to draw all its ardor from the depths of the ocean.

Invictus Aqua retains its iconic muse

As always, Invictus Aqua will be accompanied by an advertisement. If the images of this television clip have not yet been revealed, we already know that Nick Youngquest will once again be the face of this perfume. Indeed, this former professional rugby player has been the face of the Invictus collection since its launch in 2015. Paco Rabanne no longer wanted a model but absolutely wanted to call on a real sportsman. Of Australian origin, the handsome Nick Youngquest has not finished capsizing the hearts of women. His collaboration with Paco Rabanne marked a decisive turning point in his career and we can not wait to see what awe-inspiring decor will accompany him for this new promotional release.

Olympéa Aqua 2018, the new divine potion from Paco Rabanne

Invictus is a sort of athletic and almost divine hero who appeared in 2013. From then on, all he needed was a campaign worthy of the name to be a fully developed man. This was done in 2015 with the creation of Olympéa . Since its launch, this juice has symbolized all the power of femininity. Its olfactory variations deal with the theme of water and baths. However, Paco Rabanne this time decided to integrate a salty vanilla more sensual and seductive than ever. Olympéa Aqua is the name of Paco Rabanne’s new creation for 2018 and already promises to intoxicate you with pleasure.

Olympéa Aqua, the scent of freshly salted skin

Olympéa Aqua is a perfume that incorporates the olfactory codes of its predecessors. However, it offers more nuances than before and plays on an elegant mixture of flavors and contrasts.

All in balance, it opposes a solar freshness to a more carnal and seductive depth. It begins first with the liveliness of citrus fruit associated with multiple white flowers. Water jasmine is enriched with lemon blossom, for a madly feminine look that is synonymous with freedom. Then, Olympéa Aqua warms up in contact with cashmere wood. Amber deposits its iodine scent on the whole. Finally, the entirety of this fragrance is traversed by a totally irresistible salty vanilla.

In general, Olympéa Aqua is like a trickle of freshly salted water that we would drop onto hot skin.

Luma Grothe to embody the image of Olympéa Aqua

As you do not change a winning team, Paco Rabanne has once again decided to call on the attractive Luma Grothe to embody the face of Olympéa Aqua. The pretty Brazilian is one of the most famous tops in the world and has already been transported to the highest catwalks on the world stage, whether in Paris, Milan or New York. Her magnetic charm and devastating gaze have made her one of the most famous muses of our time.

Like Olympéa Aqua, Luma Grothe seems to be a sort of chosen one who stands out from the crowd. Its devastating beauty is the fruit of multi-ethnic origins, both German, Japanese and African. Luma Grothe is therefore aimed at all women in their generality and reveals to us, through this last perfume, an ultimate facet of her personality.

Olympéa Aqua and its Art-Deco bottle

Olympéa Aqua is also sublimated by an elegant bottle that we owe to designer Marc Ange. Completely timeless, it combines mythological codes with Art-Deco style architecture. The power of the Olympéa Aqua woman is embodied by the laurels of victory, drawn in relief on the outline of her bottle. Its transparent glass now gives us a glimpse of a peach-pink juice. With him, everything is only a question of romanticism, carnal seduction and femininity.

Paris – Biarritz, the new fragrance from Chanel

Paris – Biarritz, the new fragrance from Chanel

Paris-Biarritz, a tribute to the first fashion house of Chanel

The Chanel house owes its existence to an exceptional woman: Gabrielle Chanel . Thus, it is not uncommon for the brand’s latest creations to refer to this extraordinary historical figure. Paris-Biarritz is the name of Chanel’s latest composition. The latter is presented in an olfactory trio and makes a nod to the history of Chanel, and in particular to the first fashion house bearing its name, located in the heart of Biarritz. Much more than a simple perfume, it is a part of heritage.

Biarritz, an emblematic place for Chanel

If Chanel decided to pay tribute to the city of Biarritz in its latest perfume, it is quite simply because its first Couture house was located in the heart of the city, in the villa Larralde, rue Gardères, opposite the casino. Gabrielle Chanel employed up to 60 seamstresses there and already fascinated the entire city with her aura and natural charisma. She was then described as a committed woman, with a sporty silhouette, often shortened dresses and designed in flexible materials. Biarritz is a place that has seen female emancipation flourish and it is therefore precisely this surge of lightness and freedom that we find in the Paris-Biarritz perfume.

The fresh and spring scent of the Basque Country in the Paris-Biarritz fragrance

Paris-Biarritz is a juice that was designed by Olivier Polge, the brand’s official perfumer . Here, he chose to highlight a perky and light femininity, evolving in life with a decided step but just as air. This translates into the indomitable dynamism of orange associated with the spring poetry of lily of the valley. The result is a very fresh composition, perfectly suited to the summer season. Paris-Biarritz is presented in a very sober bottle, the top of which is decorated with a black cylindrical stopper and the front face of which is simply covered with a white label signed Chanel.

Paris-Deauville, a nod to the history of Chanel in a perfume

Recently, the house of Chanel has continued to pay tribute to its creator through new scent compositions. Gabrielle perfume in particular made a lot of talk. Today, the brand has chosen to highlight three places in which Coco Chanel has spent several years . Among this new olfactory trio is the Paris-Deauville perfume. So, how about going with us to the Normandy coast?

Deauville, an emblematic place in the history of Chanel

If Deauville is a place steeped in history for the house of Chanel, it is quite simply because it is there that Gabrielle decided to put down her suitcases, in 1913. She opened a fashion store there, rue Gontaut-Biron. Until that date, Gabrielle Chanel had above all a growing notoriety for her hats. She then knew how to seduce the most prominent faces of her time. Deauville marked a turning point and changed the course of its history. It is from that day that Chanel became an illustrious figure of couture.

What if Deauville took on a more Mediterranean smell?

As surprising as it may seem, the new Paris-Deauville perfume does not really smell the typical smell of Normandy… Olivier Polge, official perfumer of Chanel has chosen to articulate this essence around two major ingredients, at the more Mediterranean spirit. The idea was more to highlight the solar and magnetic aura of Gabrielle Chanel. It resurfaces in a duo of basil and Sicilian orange. The result is a wildly aromatic and invigorating fragrance. With Paris-Deauville, the house of Chanel breathes a summer air before the hour!

When YSL designs Paris in perfume

City of lights, glamor and elegance, Paris is THE city of Yves Saint-Laurent, a perfume to his glory therefore seems so legitimate. In 1983, Paris was YSL’s fragrant homage to his favorite city but also to his favorite women, those he has been dressing for years, those who exude rose and sensuality. Paris will therefore be one of its iconic floral scents of the 80s while diffusing a romantic and glamorous wave of a city of all possibilities.

Yves Saint-Laurent and Paris, a fragrant declaration of love …

Born in Oran, Yves Saint-Laurent tries his luck when he arrives at 18 in Paris. The City of Light will bring him luck and will open the doors to the most prestigious sewing workshops such as Dior. In 1961, still in Paris, Yves Saint-Laurent left Dior to create his own label, it was an immediate success.

So in 1983, YSL wanted to pay homage to this city which it made famous by composing a perfume in its image and its name: Paris. More than a tribute, it is a declaration of love that Yves Saint-Laurent makes for the capital and its women by offering them this Paris colored with delicate roses and elegant sensualities.

“Maybe you were just a pretext to make my dream come true: to offer a perfume to Paris. Prestigious Paris that dazzles. Your flames and crackles of fireworks make the world sparkle. For this new perfume, it is your name that I chose because there is none more beautiful. Because I love you. My Paris. »1 Yves-Saint-Laurent for Paris.

Naturally this pretty Paris is going to highlight the most beautiful of its symbols but also the most beautiful of its women. The visuals of Paris follow one another and the softest and most aesthetic images are revealed. However, Jean-Paul Goude’s advertising campaign produced for Paris by Yves Saint-Laurent in 1998 will certainly be the most striking image of all. The Eiffel Tower becomes the heroine of an extraordinary kiss between a woman perched at the end of the tower and a man hanging from a helicopter, a formidable story that can only be experienced in Paris, with Paris …

Romantic flower breeze for a chic Paris signed YSL

The Paris bottle is shiny and faceted in order to reflect the prettiest lights of what we nickname the City of Light, Paris of course! As for the original cabochon made of black and pink, it reminds us that the city is also one of all modernities and all elegance.

Paris is one of the very first successes of the young perfumer of the time: Sophia Grojsman. It opens with fresh and invigorating notes of bergamot and geranium accompanied by floral floral delicacies of hawthorn and hyacinth. The heart opens wide on a bouquet of flowery opulence beautifully distilling notes of lily of the valley, mimosa, violet and rose of course. Some heliotropes will make the link between these floral beauties and the deep sensualities of sandalwood, amber and cedarwood. An intensely elegant trail that will be powdered with a few precious irises.

Paris, a city dear to the heart of Yves Saint Laurent

Paris, a city dear to the heart of Yves Saint Laurent

Yves Saint-Laurent is undoubtedly the most Parisian designer of his time. Also, it is in all logic that he gave the name of this city which is so dear to him to one of its perfumes. Paris is an emblematic essence of the feminine universe, both delicate and reassuring. It releases a floral accord mainly built around the rose. For the occasion it has been worked in a fresh and spicy way. When you smell this perfume, which you can find for less on our site, it’s a bit like entering the intimacy of Yves Saint-Laurent. This one put all his soul into it and it shows.

The Parisian universe of Yves Saint-Laurent

Paris: that one word is enough to make many stars shine in people’s eyes. A multitude of ideas immediately come to mind. The Luxembourg Gardens, the Tuileries, the Eiffel Tower, the Pont des Arts… So many places that are familiar to Yves Saint-Laurent. Indeed, it is in this city that he began to work as a designer in the world of fashion. Likewise, it is here that he will launch his first fashion house. Finally, he spent his whole life there alongside his companion Pierre Bergé, before dying there in 2008. Many people consider Paris to be the most beautiful city in the world. It is the city of love, the city of light. It is synonymous with la vie en rose and thus inspired the main ingredient in this essence. Paris is a tender and romantic fragrance. It makes you want to stroll in the heart of the capital, with a smile on your face and your heart seduced by the surrounding beauty. Also, the woman who wears it only looks more beautiful, more refined and more cheerful. Paris suits him wonderfully and gives him unparalleled refinement.

Paris, a rose-based essence

Parisiennes are recognized around the world for their class and French elegance. Also, if they were to be embodied by a flower, this would undoubtedly be the rose, the flower embodying nobility par excellence. However, Yves Saint-Laurent is demanding and did not choose just any rose. Indeed, the scent he selected is that which emanated from a rose in his garden in Marrakech, when he was a child. Its freshness is then associated with equally invigorating notes of bergamot and honeysuckle. In addition, the carnation brings its peppery side while the violet gives off powdery scents. This floral arrangement is then illuminated by orange blossom, as well as by hawthorn and jasmine. Iris, a particularly noble ingredient in the field of perfumery, is enveloped by the milky smell of sandalwood as well as the woody scent of vetiver. Finally, a touch of honey finished off sublimating the whole with a touch of gluttony. Since its creation, this perfume has never ceased to intoxicate women. In addition, Yves Saint-Laurent ensures that it never falls into oblivion and, since 2004, has made a habit of publishing a limited edition each year. Also, that of 2015 is entitledParis Rouge et Or and becomes so dazzling.

Parisienne, the great classic of Yves Saint Laurent

Parisienne, the great classic of Yves Saint Laurent

Parisienne is a floral and woody fragrance that has established itself as one of the great classics of the Yves Saint Laurent house. It tells the story of a woman in black who spent a sleepless night. This woman could not be more glamorous and has an angelic face that does not lack playfulness. It is a Parisian seen by Yves Saint Laurent , still in an evening dress as the day breaks. Paris is at his feet… No wonder when we know that the muse in question is none other than the famous Kate Moss.

The essential fragrance of the Yves Saint Laurent house

Yves Saint Laurent has been a perfume designer since 1964. However, we must admit that Parisienne is one of his essential fragrances. This captures the free spirit and the voluptuousness that characterize Parisian life. It is borrowed from a lot of magic and contains the soul of one of the most beautiful cities in the world. This fragrance paints the portrait of a woman freed from her constraints and who thinks for herself. Also, this woman has a face: that of Kate Moss. It seems then that the marketing campaign really worked well since Parisienne quickly climbed into the top 20 of 2010 for best sales for women in France. Also, victim of its own success, La Parisienne is available in eau de Perfume, eau de toilette, perfumed body milk, perfumed shower gel and deodorant.

Parisienne, the nectar of a sensual, elegant and deeply free woman

Parisienne by Yves Saint Laurenttakes again the flowery and powdery pink-violet frame of its elder and great classic Paris. The theme is however treated differently and appears younger and completely modernized. Thus, the designer, Sophia Grosjman has added a note of red fruits, in this case raspberry and blackberry, as well as patchouli. Indeed, this ingredient has become a must for fragrances wishing to target a younger audience. Also, the very romantic aspect of the original essence is somewhat toned down in favor of something more dapper. The desired effect is very glossy. With Parisienne, the powdery side is put aside in favor of the more fruity aspect. The agreement remains consensual but much more contemporary. Its heart is very floral and its rose scent reinforces its extreme femininity. The violet, for its part, more sensual and carnal, evokes leather. Moreover, Kate Moss does not fail to wear it in advertising.

Finally, how to talk about this perfume without mentioning its sublime bottle? This case is very elegant. It is halfway between sculpture and jewelry. The Parisienne bottle is chiseled, as if to recall the innumerable rue de Paris. In addition, it is also draped, as if to evoke the sheets in which La Parisienne would come to curl up, thus depositing its delicate scent.

Patchouli Elixir, all the hidden secrets of patchouli

His name is Nino Amaddeo and her, Zoé Coste and he is her muse. For more than 40 years, Zoé and Nino have been imagining jewelry and perfumes imported from their many travels. It was in the 1960s, in the heart of London and in Indian markets, that Zoé discovered the smell of patchouli. It will become the starting point for their home and their olfactory explorations. “  Patchouli Reminiscence  ” honors patchouli, this scent synonymous with freedom. In 2007, Réminiscence put its legendary fragrance back in the spotlight with a very intense variation, “Patchouli Elixir”.

Patchouli Elixir, at the beginning, the incredible story of the Patchouli perfume

Native to Indonesia and the Philippines, patchouli is a small leaf that has not always been loved. In the early 19th century, very wealthy women brought in cashmere shawls from Indonesia. To protect them from moths, these shawls were wrapped in patchouli leaves. A powerful scent, patchouli is then taken by storm by the “Parisian casseroles” who seized on this perfume, henceforth considered as the perfume of “evil”. It was not until the 60s / 70s that patchouli experienced its heyday.

Associated with the freedom of morals, the hippie movement and “flower power”, patchouli then becomes the perfume of a whole generation. Today, patchouli is an ingredient of choice in niche perfumery. It gives off ultra powerful, woody and smoky tones and fits into many olfactory compositions.

Patchouli Elixir, even more intense Reminiscence patchouli

37 years after its first great success, the Réminiscence brand decided to sublimate patchouli with “Patchouli Élixir” and chosen as perfumer, Isabelle Doyen. A graduate of the prestigious Versailles perfume school, ISIPCA, Isabelle Doyen has composed a lot for Annick Goutal. “Patchouli Elixir” opens with notes of patchouli which offers us an intense facet of its beauty. Then, the heart of “Patchouli Elixir” is both woody and sensual and combines cedarwood, Australian sandalwood and Haitian vetiver, ingredients that are generally used as base notes.

Finally, all the power of “Patchouli Elixir” is found in the base notes which combine labdanum, tonka bean and vanilla for a trail that is as gourmet as it is sensual. As for the bottle, it naturally takes up the main codes of its predecessor. Rectangular in shape and slightly curved, the “Patchouli Réminiscence” bottle imposes its beauty at first glance. The transparency of its thick glass gives a glimpse of the amber color of the precious nectar. It is topped with a sober and golden cabochon for an ultimate touch of elegance.

37 years after the success of “Patchouli”, the Réminiscence brand returns to the forefront with “Patchouli Elixir”. As dazzling as its elder, “Patchouli Elixir” nevertheless wants to be much more powerful to the point that we no longer know if it is a perfume, a drink, a nectar or a magic potion…

Patchouli for Men: The legendary fragrance Reminiscent for men

After scenting the world in 1970 with Patchouli, the Réminiscence house set out to conquer men in 2000 with a male version composed solely for their purpose: Patchouli for Men. The beautiful woodsiness is transformed for the occasion into a virile scent at will by distilling some exotic spices and aromatics from there … A sensual delight offered after so many years of waiting is finally offered to these gentlemen.

Patchouli for Men: men finally have THEIR Patchouli!

The “soul” of the Réminiscence perfume house is of course the magnificent Patchouli which, in the hippie years, made the fame of this couple of jewelry designers from Juan-les Pins. Years later, Patchouli de Réminiscence remains the absolute reference for all patchouli fragrances, both its flavor and its scent being resistant to time and fashions. “If Patchouli is the witness of an era , it is because it endures like rare things. »Reminiscence reminds us.

In order to continue to make the aura of Patchouli shine through the decades, why not offer it to a new audience? Men of course! These men who particularly love the warm sensuality of patchouli through perfumes that are also mythical but who, sometimes, have lost the real smell of this wood, which is both rare and very vegetal.

By offering Patchouli pour Homme to these gentlemen, Réminiscence revives the strength of its first success while absolutely not hesitating to modernize the perfume of the 70s by bringing it a new virility as well as some freshness. A sign that times are changing, Patchouli pour Homme will be sold in a visual that will bring together the Patchouli couple, now united in an amber and fantastic universe.

Spices and aromatics reserved for Patchouli pour Homme

If the originality of this Patchouli for Men is to come out 30 years after the female version, the bottle has remained very faithful to the original from 1970. Basically, the primary sobriety of the Patchouli bottle is as universal as it is timeless. ! Thus Patchouli pour Homme will be offered in a tilted and rectangular glass, quite similar to its famous and venerable elder Patchouli.

Patchouli pour Homme opens with a refreshing citrus cocktail composed of essential oil of lime from Mexico and tangerine from Italy. Then the guest of honor of this beautiful bottle, patchouli from Java, pierces the heart which melts with it into a precious cedar from Virginia. Geranium will bring its vegetal tone to these deep woods. The tonka bean absolute from Venezuela will merge with the animality of labdanum to create with tolu balm and benzoin an intense and sensual trail to the mysterious man of this Patchouli for Men.

“Patchouli Homme evokes travel and rare sensations, and embodies a strong, charismatic and contemporary character. It exudes both the magic of the distance and absolute privacy. »Reminiscent of Patchouli pour Homme.

Patchouli N’Roses, a scent of unforgettable exoticism

Patchouli N’Roses, an unforgettable momentum of exoticism

The story of the Réminiscence brand is first of all a story of love and passion. In the 1970s, Zoé Coste and Nino Amaddeo sold jewelry in an old shop located on King’s Road Boulevard in England. Their creations are inspired by the trips they make in the East and India. It was therefore in London, rocked by the hippie movement and the smell of patchouli that the story of Réminiscence began. In 1970, Réminiscence presented its first fragrance, simply named “Patchouli”. In 2016, it is a variation that the brand offers with “Patchouli N’Roses” .

Patchouli, the DNA of the house Réminiscence

Patchouli is an aromatic plant. It is mainly found in Malaysia, China and also in India. Patchouli has a woody, earthy, damp, camphoric, even dusty odor. Patchouli made its debut in perfumery in the mid-19th century. At that time the cashmere shawls that came from India were wrapped in patchouli leaves to fight against moths. It is in fact this smell which attracted the ladies, and the patchouli quickly became an opportunity to perfume oneself and also for the women, a weapon of seduction. Patchouli was also the emblem of hippies during the 1970s.

It has been associated with the new definition of love, sensuality, sexual freedom. With “Patchouli” released in 1970, the Réminiscence brand wanted to pay tribute to the hippie years, more mainly to freedom. It is as if the brand had wanted to reclaim this cult flavor, now very popular with perfumers. Because patchouli is inevitably associated with the beginnings of the brand, it will forever remain an indelible imprint, a very special DNA.

The rose at the heart of the composition of Patchouli N’Roses

Patchouli N’Roses is considered a racy fragrance with a modern signature. It is the perfumer Fabrice Pellegrin, known for his oriental floral compositions, who is at the origin of “Patchouli N’Roses”. This one presents an addictive fragrance filled with Damanesca roses and is in line with “Flower Power”. “Patchouli N’Roses” will then unveil itself in its most floral facet, enhanced by a high concentration of white musks conferring a delicate sensuality. “Patchouli N’Roses” is contained in a sleek bottle. Rectangular, it nevertheless displays rounded angles, for more softness. Its face is curved and represents roses tinged with violet and purple colors, which evoke scents that flutter in the air. The whole is topped with an opaque white square cabochon,

After the success of “Patchouli” in 1970, Réminiscence presents “Patchouli N’Roses”, a variation filled with Damanesca roses. Because patchouli represented the hippie years and the beginning of the brand, it has become a cult scent for Reminiscence, like DNA inseparable from its skin. Between patchouli, roses and white musks, Réminiscence once again offers an explosion of scents.
