A certain something

Published: 4-Oct-2006


Said to offer understated luxury in a world where trends quickly come and go, Jil Sander’s latest offering is the floral and woody Jil Sander Style (Coty). The fragrance is meant for a certain type of woman, someone with confidence and a sense of freedom.

From top notes of freesia, mango, cardamom, and pink pepper, the scent moves through to a heart of violet, magnolia, iris and jasmine. The base notes consist of vanilla, amber and musk and are said to give the skin a feeling of being wrapped in cashmere.

The flacon, designed by Patrick Veillet, is said to be minimalist with blended lines and is influenced by Bauhaus architecture. Described as having a monolith form made from two blocks which barely touch each other, the white bottle has a glossy finish and a violet coloured neck. The edp is joined by a shower cream, bath cream, moisturising body milk and body cream and a deodorant cream.

LAUNCH: Germany from October.

PRICES: €39 for 30ml, €58 for 50ml, €72 for 75ml, €19.50 for deodorant cream, €34 for body cream.
