The heroine of Lewis Caroll’s ‘Alice in Wonderland’ off... Go
Date: 06.30.2008
Frederic Malle has just unveiled his latest fragrance, Dans tes bras (“In your arms”), designed by perfumer Maurice Roucel. The fragrance was inspired by cashmeran, a sweet, woodsy-ambry ingredient that is notoriously difficult to work with. The composition was softened with floral tones, including a ‘cocktail of salicylates’ and a green-scented violet note. The spicy character of clove, paired with frankincense, bestows an almost carnation-like tonality. Distinctly les heady than Musc Ravageur (designed by Roucel in 2000 for the same brand), the overall effect is of a spicy-woodsy, slightly solar floral. 3.4-oz. spray: €155, 1.7-oz. spray €105. Coming in September. For more info: editionsdeparfums.com
