Roberto Cavalli will launch a new fragrance for women, Serpentine, this fall. The fragrance, created by nose “Jacques Cavallier of Firmenich, is built around notes of mango flower combined with mandarin, tiare flower and amber.” (via cosmeticnews) Additional notes include artemisia, frangipani, black pepper and tolu balm. Roberto Cavalli Serpentine is an Eau de Parfum and is available in 30, 50 and 100 ml and in matching body products.
Bogner Man will be released this month in Europe…
Caron launched Miss Rocaille in 2004. It was created by house nose Richard Fraysse and includes notes of mandarin, orange blossom, basil, jasmine, rose, lilac, lily of the valley, hyacinth, violet, water lily, musk and pistachio.
I really love the top notes of Miss Rocaille: a fresh burst of citrus with a bit of muguet and lots of basil. The basil does give it a slightly masculine touch at the start, but it soon settles into a more feminine floral blend over a trace of nutty pistachio. No single floral note stands out, but I can smell lilac, water lily and a light jasmine…
