new fragrance-Acqua Fiorentina, Creed
Imagine the dawn of a summer’s day in Tuscany. The sky is purple and gold, heralding the break of another long, lazy day. In the distance, the gentle contours of a hill, caressed by the fickle breeze… and on that hill, an orchard, tucked beneath the walls of a thousand year old village.
The sun rises and everything is bathed in a shimmering renaissance light, harbinger of harmony. The earth smiles back, newly touched with beauty.
You sleep on in your linen sheets. But now, delicate tendrils of sunlight tickle your eyelids and your senses stir. You reach down to the blue glass bowl on the floor beside the bed. Feeling around, your fingers close over a ripe plum. As Paul Eluard said in his poem,: “And now the sun is set free”.
Acqua Fiorentina: a promise of harmony from Creed.
A fruity floral scent, with notes of plum, rose, Indian carnation, bergamot, lemon, and drying down to Virginian cedar and Indian sandalwood.
With not much left to say beside this description, this fragrance is incredibly refined, suave but lasting, royal (princessy, not queeny!), sparkling, luminous. The flacon is absolutely beautiful: transparent and rosy, but the sides are adorned with a band of silver arabesque flowers.
PS-Plum seems to be the new black nowadays, so I expect it to challenge Liasons Dangereuses by Kilian.

I was wondering if any samples will be available of this new scent. Thank you
Sure. We already have a tester at the store in Berthelot, so you can try it on the skin, but in about a week we’ll get the fragrance, together with samples.
what is the euro retail price?
