TRuSSARDI PRESENTS TRuSSARDI

This new classic fragrance has been conceived for the empowered woman of today, who is strong and independent and always in the driver’s seat of her life. It is on these founding values of contemporary femininity that Trussardi has built up a new classic in the art of perfumery and an authentic seal of identity for the greyhound brand. using typical Italian ingredients, julie Massé and Violaine Collas (Mane) have created a fragrance that evokes all the elegance and sun-drenched positivity of Italy. The olfactory score revolved around the cardinal points of Italianness and feminine audacity, with top notes of Neroli, Italian Mandarin and an Italian Accord, a heart of courage and pride, with Lavender, jasmine Absolute and White Dahlia Accord and feminine and hypnotic base notes of a Suede Accord, a Violet Accord and Patchouli. The bottle is an authentic piece of contemporary Italian design, with this perfect cylindrical shape, evoking the sophisticated columnlike lines of women’s dresses in the 1970s, when the women’s liberation movement started. It also recalls an elegant object of design from the magical period of Memphis, the creative workshop of Mendini and Sottsass, suggested by the striped decoration of the upper part of the bottle. The box is an elegant cylinder in recycled and FSC certified paper, It reproduces the effect of contemporary sophisticated elegance of the bottle with a series of coloured lines in the typical chromatic palette of the new feminism, which does not reject femininity: white, rose, black and gold. The project of this new iconic fragrance is a green commitment, in the selection of partners attentive to the same objective of eco-compatibility shared with the brand. The visual campaign accompanies a photo of the bottle on a dark glass table with an intense close-up of Noel Berry, top model and celebrity, against the backdrop of the scenic Lake Como, shot by Mariano Vivanco. Her natural glamour is exalted by a sensual leather top which underlines her audacity and expresses the style of the Trussardi tradition. In the advertising film, this audacity and supreme self-confidence is shown when the testimonial expertly drives a prestigious motor-boat herself, to reach a sumptuous lakeside villa where a Hollywood film starring her is to be premiered. She reveals her secret to a small girl who is one of her fans, saying “Let me tell you a secret: in life always remember to take the driving seat.” It is a fantastic message of empowerment and self-confidence for the Trussardi woman she is and for the Trussardi woman the little girl will grow up to be.
