S ilk SENSAI THE SILK

The finest way to ‚clothe‘ your body.

馨香如绸

By Patricia Schweizer I Uwe Herzog Translation Louise Mawbey I Mark S. Kennedy

The finest silk is not only to be found on the clothes racks of exclusive fashion stores – the exquisite fabric has long since broken into the world of beauty. And now ‘SENSAI THE SILK’, the first fragrance inspired by silk from the leading cosmetic brand from Japan, is the crowning glory of its sophisticated creations. Luxury Life MAGAZINE has put it to the test.

form the crowning glory of the “concert” – this is a blend which intensely stimulates the senses and perfects the symphony.

With “butterflies in our stomachs” every single one of our senses is now under the influence of the inner luminosity radiated by silk. The new perfume creation is available as Eau de Parfum and Eau de Toilette – thus evoking different moods and nuances, depending on the required intensity and duration of the fragrance.

To sum it up, SENSAI THE SILK leaves no one in doubt that silk is the most exquisite way of caring for, protecting and preserving our beauty. And, above all, of paying homage to it.

For example, we purchase the two best bales of 100 kilogrammes each out of approximately five million bales of high quality wool which are available in Australia and New Zealand.

你始终要去思考，如何充分利用这一切让帆船能够进行转向或者提速。

You yourself, like your brother and your ancestors, grew up in the valley of the Piemont region. Where does your passion for sailing come from? Pier Luigi Loro Piana: “My mother loved the ocean and every year we spent three months on the beach in Portofino. At the age of 14, I then sailed for the first time there. This special way of balancing on water, playing with the wind – it fascinated me, and so I discovered my love of sailing and of yachting. Sailing is a fantastic sport. Out there on the ocean, one is in the midst of nature, closely connected with the wind – you always have to think about how you can use it best of all to follow a certain direction or increase the speed.”

在过去的七年中，您一直都是撒丁岛“诺悠翩雅超级帆船赛”的组织者。这一赛事每年都会吸引全世界最漂亮、最快速的帆船和机动游艇参赛，是什么激发您举行这一独特的水上赛事？皮埃尔·路易奇·罗诺·皮阿纳：“事实上，诺悠翩雅与帆船赛事的关系一直很密切。我们从 1995年起就开始资助团队和帆船赛。例如，我们已经连续七年赞助在卡普里岛(Capri)举行的三湾帆船周比赛(Settimana die Tre Golfi)。在撒丁岛Porto Cervo的超级游艇比赛也是我们的心血结晶。对于这一级别的船只，以往业内并未

beautiful and fastest sailing yachts in the world take part every year? Pier Luigi Loro Piana: “Actually, Loro Piana has always been closely linked with the sailing world, we have continuously promoted teams and regattas since 1995. For example, we are the sponsor of the ‘Settimana dei Tre Golfi’ on the island of Capri and for about seven years we have devoted ourselves here in Porto Cervo on Sardinia to the superyachts. Up to that point, not enough attention was given to this class, but many owners wanted to send their boats at least once or twice a year to take part in a large race. After all, every yachtsman enjoys sharing his passion for the sport with good friends during a regatta. Everyone on board has only one goal in mind: to be faster – and to win! We are therefore especially happy to support sailing for this reason, because this sport has many values which the Loro Piana brand also stands for: nature, beauty, excellence and undisputable quality.” The turquoise-coloured waters surrounding Sardinia are considered paradise for water sports enthusiasts. Why is that? Pier Luigi Loro Piana: “The Costa Smeralda stretches more than one hundred kilometres from Olbia to La Maddalena. This coastline is considered to be the most ideal sailing region in the whole of the Mediterranean. The view from the sea across to the coastal landscape is simply incomparable; there are hardly any more beautiful places in the world for a regatta. What’s more, the wind is always good here – producing the best conditions for sailors. Porto Cervo and its Yacht Club are very happy that the Aga Khan discovered this location back in the 60s. At that time, he played his part in enabling this coast to develop into what it is today – a paradise for watersports participants and enthusiasts.” A final question, which only you as a specialist can answer: From your experience, which is easier to tame – a cashmere goat or a yacht at high sea? Pier Luigi Loro Piana: “That depends on which trade you master better. Personally, I really understand how to manage cashmere goats as well as our company. I’ve very often been to the wild mountain regions to see how the Hyrcus goats grow up. I found that really fascinating. High up there, you are in harmony with nature, nature is the queen. That’s a powerful feeling. In this respect, the situation is somewhat similar to sailing, but the high sea is significantly more dangerous – but, of course, also more exciting!”

一起分享他们对这项运动的热爱。船上的每个人心中只有一个目标：更快，获胜！正是因为这个原因，我们很高兴能够支持这项比赛，因为这项运动的很多精神与诺悠翩雅不谋而合：自然、美和优质。” 撒丁岛周围这片碧蓝的海水，被誉为水上运动爱好者的天堂。为什么呢？皮埃尔·路易奇·罗诺·皮阿纳：“斯梅拉达海滩从奥比亚(Olbia)一直延伸到马达里纳(La Maddalena)，延绵100多公里。这条海岸线被誉为整个地中海进行帆船运动最理想的区域。在大海中眺望整个海滨风光，可以欣赏到无以伦比的风景。对于帆船赛而言，世界上几乎没有哪个地方比这里更美此外，这里的海风也很好，可以为选手们提供最佳条件。阿加·卡恩(Aga Khan)在上世纪 60年代发现了这个地点，这对赛沃港和这里的游艇俱乐部而言是一件幸事。从那时起，他就致力于开发这片海滩，最终发展成现在的样子：水上运动专业运动员和业余爱好者的天堂。最后一个问题只能由您这样的专业人士才能回答：根据您的个人经历，下列哪一个更容易驯服：克什米尔公山羊，还是海洋中的船只？皮埃尔·路易奇·罗诺·皮阿纳：“这要看你更精通哪一行了。就我个人而言，我非常了解如何驯服克什米尔公羊和管理自己的公司。我经常会到荒蛮的山区观察克什米尔山羊的成长过程。那是一种很奇妙的体验。在高山上，你与自然和谐共存。自然就是王者。那是一种很强烈的感觉。从这个角度而言，这跟航海类似。但大海中的情境更危险，当然了，也更刺激。”

Crowds of fun loving spectators from around the world have descended upon the picturesque village of Gstaad for a weekend of world-class polo and entertainment at the 20th edition of the Hublot Polo Gold Cup Gstaad Tournament.

The 3rd and 4th place went to Team Banque Baring Brothers Sturdza SA and Team Gstaad Palace. Taking into consideration the safety of the players and ponies, the waterlogged pitch was deemed too dangerous to play a competitive match. The crowds were not left unsatisfied, the announcement was made the final would be replaced by a 4-chukka exhibition match. The four team-patrons and the four best players of the tournament were split into two teams to play in a non-competitive manner. Off the field the 20th anniversary of the Hublot Polo Gold Cup celebrations continued. Spectators were wowed by the magnificent air display from Fly 7 Executive Aviation. www.pologstaad.ch

GAGLIOLE 在加尤利的苍穹下 By Patricia Schweizer I Uwe Herzog Translation Louise Mawbey I Mark S. Kennedy

When Thomas Bär and his wife Monika walk out of their front door in a morning, they have a view across one of the most beautiful vineyards in Tuscany – as well as of old olive trees, historic walls and a wonderful rose garden whose blossoms gleam in the morning sun. Their vineyard estate GAGLIOLE is one of “Tuscany’s gems” and the wines are some of the best in the region.

At this time Berengario, King of the Lombards, bestowed Gagliole on his son Ildebrando on his wedding day. And as fate would have it, more than a thousand years later Thomas and Monika met each other for the first time nearby, at a neighbouring manor – and then made Gagliole their ancestral home as well.

款精致作品。它能够征服世界的原因，可能是因为它产自25-30年藤龄的葡萄，也可能是因为葡萄园的白垩质土壤，或者是因为那些数不清的小蜜蜂（这款酒即以之命名），它们整个夏季都在葡萄之间忙碌奔波。这款葡萄酒的原料为95%的桑乔维赛和5%的美乐，可谓是各种元素的完美结合，但其年产量不足1000瓶，因此，是众多专业人士和美酒爱好者年复一年企盼拥有的罕见“ 尤物”。

除了该地区常见的红葡萄酒，巴恩的酒庄还出产几款优秀的白葡萄酒、法国橡木桶佳酿蒸馏酒 (Grappa)以及每年约2000毫升产量的一级橄榄油。所有橄榄也都是以古老的传统方式手工采摘，并在酒庄自家的压榨厂中用世界顶级技术制成橄榄油。中午在厨房中享受了一顿由弗兰卡·斯蒂亚切尼 (Franca Stiacchini)掌勺的丰盛午餐，弗兰卡是加尤利葡萄园中负责一日三餐的大厨。随后我们游览了莫妮卡·巴恩亲手打造的玫瑰花园，该花园环绕在住宅的四周，馥郁绚丽。玫瑰加美酒，这样的组合充分契合了托斯卡纳最精华的美。她丈夫最喜欢的地方就是住宅对面的那片拥有200 多年历史的茂密古橡树林。托马斯·巴恩说：“ 加尤利就是我们梦想成真的地方。”离别时刻，我坐上车，从后视镜看到夫妻二人向我们挥手告别。柏树在大道上洒下幽静的树荫。天空似乎比别处更加低沉，仿佛触手可及。

In addition to the red wines which are so typical for the region, the estate also produces several excellent white wines, plus Grappa aged in French oak and approximately 2,000 litres of top-quality olive oil, whose fruit is also harvested by hand in line with ancient tradition and is then processed and bottled in accordance with state-of-the-art methods in the estate‘s own press. After lunch from the kitchen run by Franca Stiacchini, the culinary „soul“ of Gagliole, we visit together the magnificent rose garden which Monika Bär has lovingly created around the manor house. Roses and wine – this combination pays very special homage to Tuscany in all its beauty. Meanwhile, her husband‘s favourite place is directly in front of the house – under a mighty 200-year old oak tree. „Gagliole is the place of our dreams,“ summarises Thomas Bär. As we watch the couple wave goodbye to us in our rear view mirror on our departure and the cypresses throw cooling shade across the avenue, the sky and the earth seem to be closer together here than anywhere else.

The monumental board “Eosander” is a true masterpiece, standing at 6m length. Its tabletop is processed out of the old timber planks of the Berlin city palace. The 400 year old bog oak wood has been precision-grinded and refined by hand and its restrained steel frame creates a smooth crossover to modern design. As a witness of history “Eosander” represents a very special and imaginary value. A true piece of Berlin ´s history in one single masterpiece – created and designed by a young Berlin manufactory.

Bathe in new dimensions with Paiova 5 – on your own or à deux. It‘s usually a bath‘s design that determines whether one bathes in a sitting position or while reclining and relaxing. Yet the needs of our bodies are dynamic, and they can vary in accordance with psychological and physical well-being. Duravit’s Paiova 5 bathtub by EOOS surmounts structural restrictions with a concept that focuses solely on individual comfort. With two different backrest slopes, Paiova 5 offers the choice between an ergonomic sitting position and an especially flat reclining position – for bathing with someone else or relaxing alone. The design of Paiova 5 is the result of a symbiosis between a corner bathtub and a freestanding bathtub. EOOS developed the new geometric form by taking a wall-hugging version and rotating it out into the room. The result of this ingenious transformation is a sculpture that succeeds in transferring the ergonomics of the bath‘s interior to a pentagonal exterior. The inclined surfaces of the bath‘s frontal contours compose a three-dimensional volume that opens up towards the room and the user. Paiova 5‘s meticulous details ensure extraordinary comfort. As a result, both of the backrests can be equipped with a whirl system. The bath is particularly luxurious with the new Combi-L whirl system. The pleasantly flat jets swivel their massaging water streams up and down the muscles along the back. At 580 mm in height, the side of the bath is slightly lower than the usual 600 mm. The narrow bathtub rim offers convenient support. A wide rim along the wall provides a practical shelf surface. www.duravit.com

Steeve’s silhouette is solid and architectural while at the same time appearing slender, light and volumetric. Its uniquely manufactured seamless back and arm covers are stretched to fit the frame – an industry innovation that eliminates the need for more complex upholstery techniques. This technique highlights Steeve’s clean design while plush interior cushions provide a soft seat.

Nature I History

Queen The

花之女王

By Uwe Herzog Translation Louise Mawbey I Mark S. Kennedy

Its origins are shrouded in mystery, its fragrance is unrivalled and today valuable varieties still delight their admirers – the rose. Love has been professed, wars have been fought and vows have been taken, all in the name of this exceptional bloom. Luxury Life MAGAZINE reveals the secret of the “queen of all flowers”.

其起源弥漫着神秘色彩，其芬芳举世无双，其珍贵琳琅的品种至今仍受世人倾慕。它，就是百花中绝无仅有的王者：玫瑰。它那无以伦比的绽放之美，馥郁之气，代表着爱的低喃，战斗的勇气，以及相守一生的承诺。《奢华生活》杂志将为您揭开“花之女王”的神秘面纱。

Since then, no other flower has been immortalised in paintings, extolled in songs or mentioned in world literature as often as the rose. Its origins date back to early China, the ancient Persian Empire and the legendary Babylon. Thousands of years ago, oriental rulers strolled through beautiful rose gardens and their oils from the legendary Damask rose, which is still cultivated for this purpose today in Bulgaria, France, Morocco and Turkey. No fewer than three million rose petals are needed to obtain just one single litre of pure rose oil.

Today, just as in days gone by, the rose petals are picked by hand at dawn, softened in water and then distilled, thus releasing more than 300 different active ingredients. A great many additional steps are then required in order to turn the initial distillate into a high quality essential oil. Rose oil was therefore not only the first ever fragrant oil to be obtained from a plant but it has always been one of the most valuable as well. Currently, the price of a kilo of pure rose oil reaches up to EUR 8,000. Furthermore, rose fragrance is the note that is most frequently used in perfumes – such as in the classic „Chanel No. 5“. In Persia, the rose has been heralded as a sacred plant since time immemorial and it was not only used as a mood enhancer and aphrodisiac. As a welcome gesture, guests of the Persian ruling houses were sprinkled with rosewater (which is produced during the perfume production process) from a precious glass carafe – and every Sultan insisted on the ladies from their harem bathing in copious amounts of rosewater before a rendezvous. Fragrant rosewater also became a part of the culinary world. Even today, it is still added to refine ice cream and other baking and Michelin star chefs have recently begun to use rose petals with fish and grilled meat and on fresh salad. The captivating petals also found favour with Cleopatra‘s Roman lover Anthony, and they succeeded in effortlessly disarming this

自此，再也没有哪种花卉如玫瑰一般，被世界各地的人们世代赞颂，在绘画、音乐和文学作品中保持着永恒不衰的生命力。玫瑰的起源，可以追溯到几个不同的地点：古中国、古波斯和传说中的巴比伦。数千年前，东方的君王们就喜欢在优美的玫瑰花园中漫步，更会招募众多炼金术士，以富有传奇色彩的大马士革玫瑰为原料炼制药膏和精油。在保加利亚、法国、摩洛哥和土耳其等地，这些古老的玫瑰提炼传统延续至今。为了提取一升纯玫瑰精油，需要至少近300万的玫瑰花瓣。古今相同，人们会在黎明时分用双手摘下玫瑰花瓣，在水中柔化之后进行提炼，获得300多种不同类型的活性成分。为了让这些原始蒸馏物变身为高品质精油，随后还需要进行大量其他的步骤。玫瑰精油不仅是人类首次从植物中提取的芳香油，也始终都是芳香油产品中最为昂贵的一款。目前，一公斤纯玫瑰精油的价格最高可达 8000欧元。此外，玫瑰那浓郁而令人欲罢不能的香气，也频频出现在香水之中，例如，经典的香奈儿5号。 4

波斯人很早以前就将玫瑰奉为神圣之花，为其找到了各式各样的用途，比如用来愉悦心情甚至是研制春药。波斯统治者在迎接宾客时，为了表示好客之意，会在珍贵剔透的玻璃水瓶中装上玫瑰水（香水制作过程中的副产品），并将其洒在贵客的身上。苏丹后宫的嫔妃必须在其闺房中以玫瑰水沐浴后，才能在君主身旁伴驾。在美食界中，香气扑鼻的玫瑰水亦是倍受青睐。如今，伊朗人仍然会在高档冰淇淋和其他甜点中添加这

玫瑰始终散发着一种神秘的气息，令无数作家心驰神往。比如，安伯托·艾科(Umberto Eco)曾以它为主题撰写了畅销书《玫瑰之名》。其他作家也坚信玫瑰的确具有一种魔力。例如，著名的作家加西亚·马尔克斯(Gabriel Garcia Márquez) 在每次写作之前，如果他的妻子莫赛迪斯 (Mercedes)没有在桌子上放一束黄玫瑰，那么他就不会动笔。他将玫瑰视为一种幸运花，可以保护他远离“恶灵”。如今，在巴黎、维也纳、柏林和伦敦仍然可以欣赏到很多迷人的玫瑰花园，依稀可见其曾经的雍容华贵。这些花园的历史可以追溯到200多年前，都是那些欧洲掌权的玫瑰爱好者下令种植的成果，比如约瑟芬皇后（Joséphine）。一些富有创新精神的园艺师，比如亨利·博耐特 (Henry Bennett)，在传统玫瑰种植方法中注入了一股全新的魔力。博耐特曾是一位农夫，他发现了一个秘密：可以用牛羊养殖的简单原理用来培育玫瑰。他的方法并不复杂，就是通过人工授粉的方式，将反复开花的玫瑰品种与茶树杂交，培养出新品种。他在铁路旁修建了几个温室培育并出售这种娇弱的花卉，使其成为一个可以赚得大笔钞票的“金矿“。1884年，他与费城的园艺师进行了一笔最昂贵的交易，一朵玫瑰的售价高达5000美元。

全球玫瑰的品种已经超过3万种。主要种植区分布在欧洲、非洲和南美洲。尽管玫瑰是一个庞大的产业，但很多玫瑰种植园的工人收入却非常微薄。越来越多的进口商重视公平交易和绿色种植。荷兰的阿斯米尔(Aalsmeer)拥有世界上最大规模的花卉拍卖会，每年交易的鲜切花数量超过30亿支，其中以玫瑰为主。但玫瑰的真正价值，却很难以美元、欧元或者日元来衡量。正如 20世纪70年代一首著名的歌曲所唱：我可以给你钻戒般珍贵的物品，但是，对不起，我不能给你玫瑰花园。因此，对于那些寻求玫瑰“货币” 价值的人而言，最好去看看各种腕表、珠宝和服装店的橱窗。因为在我们的记忆里，设计师们已经被玫瑰那强大的象征意义所折服，因此，无论是大众品牌的量产商品，还是知名品牌的定制商品，都会频频出现玫瑰的身影。让我们把目光投向地中海的蔚蓝海岸(Côte

particularly beautiful new creation even managed to enter the political arena – the „Peace“ rose, with its yellow and subtle pink tones. When the global powers convened at the inaugural meeting of UNO in San Francisco in 1945, shortly after the liberation from Nazi rule, this rose had been placed in the hotel rooms of all the delegates. It was accompanied by the words „This is the ‚Peace‘ rose, which was christened on the day Berlin fell.“ The positive message of this creation inducted to the „Rose Hall of Fame“ has been spread in huge numbers. More than ten million „Peace“ roses have been sold. Today, there are more than 30,000 different rose varieties throughout the world. The main growing regions are in Europe, Africa and South America. A thorny business for many plantation workers – but more and more importers are placing a great deal of importance on fair trade and pollutant-free production. In Aalsmeer alone, a town in the Netherlands which boasts the largest flower auction in the world, more than three billion cut flowers change hands every year, principally roses. However, the true value of roses cannot be measured in dollars, euros or yen. And there is good reason that the famous song from the 1970s says „I could promise you things like big diamond rings“ but „I beg your pardon, I never promised you a rose garden.“ Therefore those who are looking for „monetarily“ valuable roses would be better off to take a look in the windows of watchmakers, jewellers and fashion stores. For as long as anyone can remember, designers have sworn by the powerful symbolism of the rose and have incorporated its likeness into mass produced and one-off items from famous brands. But back to the Côte d’Azur. Here too, enchanting gardens remind us of the heyday of rose cultivation – such as the Roseraie Princesse Grace, which Prince Rainier commissioned in Fontvieille, Monaco, in the honour of his wife Grace Kelly. Grace not only knew how to „speak“ to roses – she even incorporated the flower petals into works of art on canvas and exhibited them in Paris. The legendary „Rose Ball“, which attracts the world‘s elite to Monte Carlo once a year, was also called into being by the princess and rose enthusiast. And half a century after Gunter Sachs created a rainfall of roses in nearby Saint Tropez, the hype surrounding the „queen of all flowers“ seems to be unabated. Whether it be Madonna, Kim Kardashian or rock legend Tina Turner, who celebrated her wedding here in a sea of 70,000 roses – no one can resist the spell of this magical flower. Nevertheless, it only takes one single rose to say the words which only reveal their full beauty through its petals – „I love you.“

By Renato Schweizer I Uwe Herzog Translation Mark S. Kennedy

„Vettel is leading the revolution“, “Vettel tames the frenzy” or „Vettel has the F1 world at his feet!” The world’s press has seldom been as enthusiastic about a racing driver as it is about Sebastian Vettel, who has been under contract at Ferrari since the beginning of this year and who has celebrated one success after the next. The Italian „Gazetta dello Sport“ summed it up exactly: „Vettel is the magician. That is Ferrari just like Enzo Ferrari would have loved it!” In an exclusive interview with Luxury Life MAGAZINE, Sebastian Vettel reveals what he is really like.

They are powerful impressions and experiences that leave their mark on you.“ Are there any negative aspects? Sebastian Vettel: „To be honest, I think that I‘ve been very lucky in life that I do something that fulfills me each and every day, something that‘s fun and doesn‘t get boring, at least it hasn‘t yet. Of course there are certain things that you have to do without, but when compared with the benefits, you can‘t really talk about negatives. I also do completely normal things; I go to a lake for a swim or do my grocery shopping in our village. And if someone recognizes me, then they recognize me.

Today we drove together in the new Ferrari California T, and I was lucky enough to be able to learn a lot about driving from you. What tips would you give to ambitious racing car drivers? Sebastian Vettel: „Well, make sure you don‘t get a speeding ticket first of all (laughs). But seriously, you really do need to take a lot of care on the roads nowadays. Of course, it‘s great fun when you‘re sitting in the right car like we are today. But my tip is it‘s better to invest some time and money and book a day on a race track. Then you really can enjoy it and give it all you‘ve got, you can get to know your car better and you don‘t have to worry about anyone coming in the opposite direction.“ You also drive a Ferrari off the track - which model? Sebastian Vettel: „An F40. I consider it to be a car that you really have to do some work in, the performance is there immediately. When you get into it, it really challenges you. The performance and handling are of course better in more modern cars, but they are also easier to drive. You still really need to do some manual work in the F40 – and that‘s exactly what makes it fun!“ www.sebastianvettel.de

自然是很好的。此外，它们驾驶起来的感觉也很轻松。F40仍然需要进行很多手动操作，但也正因如此，我才会感觉乐趣十足！”

Pomellato has once again selected the mysterious and sensual colour black for a reinterpretation of the delicate Arabesque design with titanium. A light-weight technical material which is transformed into a matt, silky „triumph“ when formed for the first time as if it were gold. The large ajour wedding ring unites titanium and rose gold to create an unforeseen combination of masculinity and femininity, of provocation and grace.

Diamond Polish – A next generation serum for use with streightening irons to protect hair from heat and to give fantastic shine. www.sassoon.com

Oriental Essences – The power of perfume.

Trace the aromatic footsteps of the world’s finest perfumers while they embark on a rich and adventurous expedition into the Orient. On the ancient trail of the Orient Express this journey of fragrances uncovers a treasure of rare herbs, exotic spices and aromas from an era gone by. The captivating result is an olfactory experience that allows your senses to visit the historic cities of Constantinople, Marrakech, Kashmir and Muscat. Through flower valleys in India to the imposing landscape of the Tibetan Himalayas. Inspired by their journeys into the orient, the new RITUALS perfumers uncovered a fragrant treasure of exclusive spices and ingredients to compose the bespoke collection of four luxury eau de parfum for women and four for men. Products are available at RITUALS Cosmetics stores, selected department stores and www.rituals.com

Mediterranean Meditation. Bottega Veneta Creative Director Tomas Maier’s inspiration for Knot is a vision of an escape from reality that leads to a villa on the Italian Riviera. The house sits in the hills overlooking the sparkling sea, its interior illuminated by sunlight, its open windows ushering in the saltwater breeze and the scent of peonies from the garden combined with the redolence of clementine trees in the distance. Knot Eau Florale conjures the next chapter of the Mediterranean interlude, this time set in the villa’s flower garden. Knot Eau Florale is the continuation of the collaboration between Tomas Maier and master perfumer Daniela Andrier. A delicate floral expression of the Knot fragrance, Knot Eau Florale features amplified notes of Rose and Peony layered with the softness of musk. The Mediterranean soul of the scent continues to radiate through notes of mandarine, neroli and lavender, underscored by the earthiness of cedarwood and tonka beans. The combination of these rare materials is what gives Knot Eau Florale its unforgettable nature. www.bottegaveneta.com

The Essence of a bold and free woman. An oriental fragrance with a strong character and surprising freshness, Coco Mademoiselle cultivates the art of harmonizing paradoxes. The vibrant, sparkling freshness of orange immediately awakens the senses, before giving way to a clear and transparent heart with an unexpectedly delicate floral bouquet of Rose and Jasmine. A bold sensuality emerges in the base of this oriental composition with a modern structure, underscored by pure patchouli and vetiver. Available as Limited Edition Prestige Set. www.chanel.com

The quintessence of femininity. It is therefore in this time-honoured tradition, and through a unique sensorial experience, that Giorgio Armani’s Sì Huile De Parfum pays tribute to the quintessence of femininity, a delicate combination of grace, strength and independence of spirit. A few drops of this heavenly elixir are enough to remain fragrant throughout the day. Its exceptional concentration leaves a long and sensual wake. A royal nectar of blackcurrant pours languidly onto creamy woods, within the final accord of modern chypre, a note of considerable elegance and pleasure. www.armanibeauty.com

The Power of the Orient. Eau Parfumée au thé noir, created by Master Perfumer Jacques Cavallier, presents an interpretation of the most noble and rarest notes of the black tea of Yunnan. It is an invitation to a motionless and dream-like journey to a mysterious land where an age-old art survives. Its complex facets, worthy of an olfactory big-bang, intimately recall the style of the Roman jeweller. Designed for both men and women. www.bulgari.com

A new floral paradigm is born. Based around the Cistus Flower, a flower with no scent, a new floral archetype is created. Labdanum is the starting point. This warm resin, obtained from the leaves and twigs of the Cistus shrub, permeates the fragrance with an intriguing and suave oriental signature. Lavish Sandalwood reinforces the impression of opulence while Vetiver confers a deep, woody vibration. A composition highlighted with Incense and Pink pepper and laced with Plum Liqueur to enrich the floral. An odourless flower is given life, a virtual scent imagined: enigmatic, contrasted, intense. www.comme-des-garcons-parfum.com
