Jimmy Choo

Description

Described as a fruity-chypre, Jimmy Choo’s opening reveals citrus notes with a slightly green effect. The fragrance then evolves towards fruity notes that blend into a floral-oriental orchid accord, the keystone of the fragrance. The sensual tail is warm and woodsy, intertwining patchouli, caramel and musk. Perfumer: Olivier Polge, IFF.

History

The shoe and accessory house Jimmy Choo is launching their first perfume. Christened simply ‘Jimmy Choo’, the fragrance is being presented as the ultimate accessory to complete the designer’s style. Tamara Mellon, the company’s co-founder, confesses that she loves wearing perfume and had wanted a Jimmy Choo scent for a long time. She has gotten her wish with an empowering feminine fragrance. Sensual, woodsy and just a touch gourmand, Jimmy Choo perfume is for women who can be glamorous, sultry or self-confident, but always looking for a good time. Jimmy Choo’s stunning shoes, with their surprising shapes, colors and materials, are fashionistas’ Holy Grail. The house’s first fragrance is part of the neo-chypre trend.
