Michael Edwards's Family Classification: Woody Oriental
Description: Hypnôse is the 50th fragrance from the House of Lancôme and is a celebration of Lancôme's ethos and belief that perfume and beauty products should help women embrace and enhance their natural charms. Hypnôse is a truly sensual yet understated encounter of vanilla and vetiver. These are encased in lucid sun-kissed and woody Oriental overtones. Passiflora, or passionflower, brings an exotic luminosity reinforced by the sun-blessed heat of Sambac jasmine. This donates the perfume a second skin quality that empowers the sensuality of the wearer and creates a very intimate second skin.
Vivienne Westwood offers women Anglomania. A new essence that shares the name of her clothing line blending denim with cultural diversity. After the sophisticated, intimate Boudoir, and the not-so-innocent, ingénue Libertine, Anglomania pairs British tradition with Asian intensity. This laid-back and eclectic new essence will attract high-spirited, extroverted women… in a word – Westwood women!
Vivienne Westwood boldly states, ‘The only reason I’m in fashion is to destroy the word Conformity’. And her latest perfume was designed in the same spirit. Let It Rock was inspired by Westwood’s first love, the punk-rock fashion and music movement that she helped found in the 70’s in rebellion against the monarchy and the British establishment of the time. A rebellious rock ‘n roll spirit that is flaunted in the impertinent bottle – a sceptre tagged with lipstick.
When the 12 strokes of midnight have struck, everything can begin… Dior reinterprets the tale of Cinderella. This intensely blue fragrance incarnates the magical spells to perfectly. A mysterious rose over an oriental bed of ambry patchouli.
