As everyone who follows his fashion line
knows, Narciso Rodriguez loves color -
particularly when it’s pure. Pure color
for Rodriguez serves as a conduit to the
emotions.
For his new limited edition fragrance
"essence in color," Rodriguez offers a
stunning iridescent purple vessel that
radiates a refulgent appeal as strong as
Murano glass. With its rounded edges,
the abstract bottle evokes a brilliant
amethyst, large enough for jewelry for
the entire cast of "Downton Abbey."
Imagine a well-heeled traveler in
espadrilles and linen wandering through
a bazaar in Marrakesh. The sun, the
smells, the crowd - and our intrepid
visitor lightly glistening in the heat.
Rodriguez has enhanced his original
"essence" fragrance with a drop of
incense and a hint of tiara blossom. The
powdery rose petals of the original are
deepened by the incense, which
complements the musk and amber at the
fragrance’s base.
Returning to the hotel, reclining on the
bed, the ex-pat notices that a bouquet
of iris has been moved from the sun, the
fragrance almost imperceptibly perfuming
the air near the pillow.
Launched at the conclusion of New York
Fashion Week, "essence in color" is
Narciso Rodriguez’s tribute to the
sensual richness of an afternoon, full
and heavy with color.
PRICE: $84.00 / 1.6 fl oz EDP
