Bill Blass has introduced Bill Blass Couture, “timeless couture translated into a luxury modern fragrance collection”. The first four scents in the series are:
Couture 1 ~ Includes white tuberose, mandarin zest, peach blossom, clove and orange blossom. Developed by perfumer Pierre-Constantin Guéros.
Couture 3 (shown) ~ Featuring sandalwood, bergamot flower, apple blossom, cinnamon, cardamom, ginger, rose, black pepper, pimento and vanilla. Developed by perfumer Valérie Garnuch.
Couture 6 ~ With notes of rose, apple blossom, blackberries and patchouli. By perfumer Pierre-Constantin Guéros.
Couture 7 ~ Notes include bitter orange, cedrat, pink pomelo, tarragon and orange blossom. By perfumer Delphine Jelk.
The Bill Blass Couture fragrances will be in 75 ml Eau de Parfum; the bottles feature designs inspired by fabrics used in the Blass fashion line. The collection will be exclusive to Saks for the next 6 months. Later this year, a coffret of travel-sized sprays will be added to the range, then look for new fragrances to be introduced every year.

Lots o' blossoms…
Good fit w/ the fashion then, I'd think…
*Sigh* looks like to me, only the Couture 6 is interesting….
Wish they'd have put more detailed descriptions on their website — hard to tell from just the notes. They're at Saks for ages so I won't get to try them anyway, so makes no different to me
1, 3, 6 and 7? Were 2, 4 and 5 too horrid to release?
…or too good to share with the masses
I like the sound of #1. Luckily, there's a Saks not terribly far from me. Have they arrived at the stores yet?
Ooh, now I really WANT them!
WWD said next week — but I'd call, they might be there already.
These all sound nice to me and all seem fairly unisex….except for No. 6. But you never know! I do indeed love Mure et Musc. Does anyone know a price point for these yet? BB's webiste is offering a free sample and I ordered No. 1–being the white floral freak that I am.
They will be $150 a pop.
For those unfamiliar with the clothes, the number of the fragrance refers to the patterns of the fashion….they are not random, and they are not missing any
Do you know what fragrance house these perfumers are from?
Thanks!
Drom.
