Lastly a little launch to tell you about:-
Award winning bespoke perfume brand Odin of New York have added The White Line to their existing cult status Black Line. As with all their fragrances these are unisex but instead of having grown from the menswear clothing collections, as the original black collection did, these start from an almost feminine take on unisex.
Because of this desire by the brand to explore this angle, these three new perfumes in the collection all stem from florals which have in the past, always been seen as a woman choice.
However these three distinctly modern takes on floral combine not just the flower, but stem, root and even leaf, therefore creating a truly modernist floral range and unisex set of perfumes.
Efflora
has a distinct fresh green effervescent feel and includes Oakwood Absolute, Ambretone, Sambac Absolute, Orange Flower Absolute and Turkish Rose Oil.
Vert Reseda
Bold herbaceous blooms, like smelling a posey of flowers stalks and all! The Galbanum adds in the fresh green note which ensures a modernity to this fragrance. It includes De Gabanum sfe, Hedione, Sambac Absolute, Turkish Rose Oil, and Jasmine Lactone.
And of course how could the team broach florals with out re-visiting the noble of all flowers, the Rose, so they bring to the table
Milieu Rosa
A fusion of three different types of Rose including Spicy Moroccan Rose, Rose De Mai and Turkish Rose. Ingredients also include, Ameroxan, Hedone Ambertone, and Citronellol Laevo.
The packaging, which is a beautiful yet intricate paper boxes has been developed with paper Artist Matthew Shlian. He created boxes that have come from his 3D interpretation of each unique perfume.
The fragrances are available now at Liberty of London
