The solstice is A Midsummer Night’s Dreamtime—that’s the one where they wear masks and run around in fields switching lovers. It’s witchy and magical, but in a hot, Eyes Wide Shut kind of way, rather than a “What’s your star sign?”. A scent for all seasons, Solstice is the story of the intimate relationship between the two annual solstices of the sun. It speaks of an unbreakable but transformational bond in the guise of a powerful and aromatic fragrance. Opening with citrus notes of mandarin and bergamot, this elegant fragrance conjures up sultry summers of amour and adoration. A hint of spicy pink pepper laced with fruity vibes lend a rosy, romantic nuance. The heart notes herald the end of the summer with earthy spices and zesty white florals intertwining like lovers and giving way to autumnal nutmeg, neroli and cardamom. The romance endures while Japanese vetiver mimics the intense aroma of fertile woods after a tropical downpour. Delicate milky green notes are delivered by sensual sandalwood and a dash of vanilla as this coupling heads towards the winter, joined in passion and stronger in unity.
What We Think
An original and compelling blend of spicy, fruity fresh notes and dry, earthy vetiver/woods that feels sexy, modern and yet still comfortably classic.
