The scent opens with notes of blackcurrant, raspberry and nashi pear, leading to heart notes of peony, magnolia and Bulgarian rose essence. Base notes of violet wood, blackberry and musks complete the fragrance.
The bottle features amethyst shading and a hot-stamped silver motif of brambles, blackberries, raspberries and peonies. The 50ml and 100ml bottles are streamlined glass columns, while the 30ml cubic bottle has the motif sculpted onto the glass and engraved into a silver stamp atop the cap. RRP from £40.
Lalique has also launched its 2015 limited edition crystal perfume bottle. Based on René Lalique’s 1910 design, the Petites Feuilles (little leaves), the 2015 edition is adorned with a lavish plumage that covers the body and softly rounded shoulders of the bottle, while the stopper features a motif designed by Lalique for the Geneviève powder box in 1920.
The scent inside is the feminine Lalique de Lalique, featuring top notes of rose, jasmine and iris; heart notes of blackberry, blackcurrant leaves and pear; and base notes of vanilla, musk and Mysore sandalwood.
RRP £1000, Lalique, lalique.com.
