How should summer aromas smell? Choosing summer aromas it is better to follow traditions of people constantly living in the beach zone, on the bright sun and at the sea side. Their traditions are verified by centuries. Italians and Spaniards prefer citron colognes with various variations - fresh, bitter, with colors and grasses. From this group we can advise you Cologne (Thierry Mugler), Acqua di Parma, Maestrale (Profumo di Pantelleria), Eau de Campagne (Sisley), Eau des Merveilles (Hermes), Agua Brava (Puig), Eau d ` Hadrien (Annick Goutal), Eau de Guerlain. Colognes, as traditionally freshening, simple and easy aromas, are available in many ordinary perfumery houses. It is necessary to choose only what will ideally approach you.
This summer we offer women radically new aromas - easy Cologne Vettiveru (Comme des Garcons), flower Vetiver pour elle (Guerlain), hardly spicy KenzoAir (Kenzo); for men - peppery Vetiver Extraordinaire (Frederic Malle), flower-spicy Vetiver (Parfums de Nicolai), citrus-wood Story (Paul Smith), iodide-sea Vetiver des Sables (Montale).
The characteristic freshness of leaves of a fig, despite of the simplicity and popularity in narrow circles, perfectly approaches for the heated summer and linen clothes: Premier Figuer (L`Artisan), Philosykos (Diptyque), Un Jardins Mediterranee (Hermes), Jardins des Kerylos (Parfumerie Generale) and others.
Considering a flower theme, traditional for summer and hot weather, it would be desirable to choose not sweet, not soap and not spicy, but as much as possible realistic fresh flowers. For example, these may be flowers of a linden and a bird cherry - Tilleul (Parfums d`Orsay), an iris - 28 La Pausa (Chanel), flowers of a honeysuckle - Chevrefeuille (Annick Goutal).
The modern perfumery knows many ways of represent freshness of sea or mountain air. Not going into detail, we shall simply list some aromas: Odeur 53 (Comme des Garcons), Sandflowers (Montale), Himalaya (Creed), and Secretions Magnifiques (Etat Libre d`Orange), Eau d`Italie, Preparation Parfumee (Andree Putmann) and the infinite list of other aromas. As a rule, their stability leaves much to be desired, but they perfectly will approach for a beach, shading perfumery shades sea freshness.
Do not forget, that after the day lead on a beach, warm evening will come and or for a romantic supper it is necessary “to put on” other aroma. For this excellent occasion we offer you favorite perfumes from Serge Lutens, Guerlain or Caron.
