that is making a name for himself with such stunning fragrances as perris monte carlo s oud imperial and rose de taif what he has created in cologne intense is something brilliant bold and breathtaking the presentation of the fragrance which comes in both eau de parfum and extrait parfum is classically elegant the 100 mil bottle is the same sophisticated masculine bottle that was created for houbigant s 2010 re release of the exquisite fougere royale from 1882 the juice is darker in cologne intense which only adds a golden richness to the presentation just as the no 5 bottle is used for other perfumes by chanel so it is that houbigant is presenting this release in the same bottle as fougere royale this smart marketing gives a certain instant house recognition you see the bottle and you know the house at once class and sophistication are assured luca maffei creator of my favorite fragrance release of 2015 photo cafleurebon the parfum is classified as a citrus aromatic i agree it opens with sharp crisp summer freshness of sicilian lemons a bitter bite of calabrian bergamot which sparks brilliantly on the skin then gives way to the wonderful green petitgrain and moroccan neroli it is a show of green citrusy skyrockets that shimmer as they rise and sparkle as they fall way to reveal the center of this fragrance here within the heart in this classic a savory tarragon takes the center stage it is richly blended into a complex dance with red pepper a touch of lavender and a whiff of indian jasmine oh that jasmine is nice if subtle as it should be and the pepper is sharp adding depth to the tarragon and lavender i love the middle of this fragrance but my love turns to obsession when we reach the dry down in the bottom notes i find a fine and creative blend by luca maffei that make this a truly memorable release of 2015 the two magical notes he introduces to the fragrance are a bitter mat tea and lush deep and hypnotic incense the effect with the fading mid notes is sheer olfactory heaven the longevity on my skin last between 6 to 8 hours the sillage is at about 18 inches cologne intense is one of my top favorite releases of last year it is a beautiful addition to the venerable and historic house of houbigant that is both a tip of the hat to past classics an era of refinement and grace but also embodies a youthful modern vibe rene michel

author laniersmith comments 13 comments winter in rome mandarine glaciale by atelier cologne rene michel petriz had a flat look dead eyes smiled at her the rich american actress who was on the beginning of her long slow decline from goddess to who was she handed him a parting gift she had enjoyed her fling with the parisian gentleman for hire and she understood that it was nothing more than a business arrangement besides the french and english press had caught wind of her liaison dangereuses it was time to pay him off and board the plane for rome before she made a fool of herself on tmz he took the red box from her not looking at it something from cartier to add to his collection that might come in handy when his long slow decline began rolling along the partially closed via imperiale in the back of a silver cloud rolls royce rosaline roclaire looked out the window the view of the shattered ruins of the imperial forum whizzing past she sighed and sank back into the lush warm cushion created by her grey russian sable coat rome was not a disappointment even on a cold and overcast february it always made her happy a good place to forget the loss of time and youth amid so many broken stones she noticed the street vendors along the side of the road selling postcards and tacky knick knacks in the cold alberto stop the car but signora there is no parking here then pull over and let me out i want to walk it is not wise lots of tourists here they will recognize you and you will be mobbed i don t care stop the car photo by giorgio clamenti she overpaid a sweet old man who had no idea she was the biggest movie star in the world for an accordion folded set of picture postcards of rome rosaline dropped the twelve euro at the forum gate then sauntered down the pitched path into the forum between the temple of antonius and faustina and the stumps of marble that were all that was left of the basilica amelia she pulled the collar of her sable up to her chin the roman winter air was much colder than it looked it much colder despite alberto s warning the forum was devoid of tourist she was all alone she wandered on taking in the shapes of crumbled temples and tried to imagine what they might have looked like two thousand years ago much more impressive than the false fronted forum she d seen at cinecitta she was positively sure of that at the entrance to the palatine she caught a glimpse of a little girl all in white running up the path ahead she turned and smiled at rosaline and with a laugh she skipped ahead there was something so familiar about the way the girl laughed she must be very cold in that skimpy white dress and sandals rosaline thought as she climbed up to the top of the hill where the fountain stood at the entrance of the farnese gardens its waters frozen over there was music in the distance beyond the gardens percussion and reeds and then a voice singing in was it latin she followed the sounds that led her to the ruins of the house of augustus she could just barely see down into part of what remained of the atrium this way come this way the music suddenly expired she turned to see who had spoken to her there was no one there it began to snow she walked on through the ruins of the imperial palaces snowflakes drifted down to settle on her hair and the shoulders of her sable coat she came to the lookout over the circus maximus and the aventine hill beyond one of her favorite views of rome she lit a cigarette and watched the early rush hour traffic race along the via del circo massimo headlights flickered in the low light taillights winked she stood there dreamily alone and at peace for a long time as the snow fell by the time she realized that it was getting dark the snow had completely covered the ground she turned to go back there before here were foot prints in the snow someone with very small feet had come up behind her and stood there watching her and was now gone then she heard the little girl laughing from very far way this way come this way she never found the little girl she was always just turning a corner or running too fast and far ahead finally rosaline did find her way back to the excelsior on the via veneto where paparazzi lay in wait for her ah well she thought the little parisian scandal has reached rome as they rushed screaming her name like hungry seagulls she smiled and endured the onslaught rosaline looked back over her shoulder and swept her sable in a dramatic arc when she reached the top steps in the port coacher and struck a pose she then gave the little boys of the press a grand movie star go to hell glamour smile the photos made the tabloids but she didn t care her walk in the ruins had been the most fun she had known in a very long time a new presentation from atelier cologne last year 2015 one of four in their exclusive collection azur release though sephora also available atelier cologne s website mandarine glaciale is a summer time fragrance perfect for a snowy winter day by which to conjure up the warm sunny shores of the amalfi coast in italy it is romantic enticing and filled with passion and desire all the things we find so appealing when the weather grows frosty not to say that mandarine glaciale is not right for the spring and summer well in fact this spicy bright as sunshine over ischia fragrance is perfect all year round it splashes across the skin in stunning opening notes of delicious mandarin orange tart succulent sicilian lemon and bitter green calabrian bergamot all of these together are so reminiscent to me of the smells one gets in the spring and summer along the coast of italy from castellammare di stabia to positano the heart of this fragrance is where we get a spicy bite the romance of the fragrance dwells here there is a sharp almost peppery ginger that shoots into the air like italian fireworks a creamy jasmine adds glamour and greet sharp petitgrain from paraguay keeps it lively and sparkling in the dry down there is a grassy earthy touch of heart of vetiver a rich dark oakmoss adds depth and weight and it is all topped off with a very subtle touch of white amber this amber gives a creamy sophistication to the ending of the fragrance leaving you wanting to spray it on again the nose behind this stunning fragrance is burgundy born jérôme epinette who was educated in the art of perfumery in grasse at the grasse institute of perfumery he is known for such creations as bal d afrique by byredo and fougere by jovoy paris he has done seven fragrances for atelier cologne as well including sud magnolia mandarine glaciale along with sud magnolia figuier ardent and cedar atlas all presented by atelier colognes in their collection azur each fragrance was inspired by places in the south warmer climates from the american south to morocco southern italy and the south of france so there is certainly more beautiful fragrances to explore in the collection for me it is a perfectly blended pure perfume not a cologne as is often the common mistake people make when it comes to atelier cologne s fragrances the pure perfume therefore gives it a fine life on the skin of about six to eight hours the sillage is moderate but when you get up close quite enticing inviting and invigorating mandarine glaciale for me is a winner for any season a beauty that will be a part of my collection for years to come

homme at the door to dior he tried to clear his mind and continue his morning walk along the avenue montaigne but it was no use as he strolled past the minuscule and austere square park next to gorgio armani he realized the street that usually made him happy did not make him happy on this very early clear late june morning the lush green fingers of the horse chestnut tree leaves seemed to point down at him in disdain the snappy click of his red soled smoker flats seemed not smart but rather muffled scuffed and sad he had been walking all night unable to sleep since the opera ended and he said goodnight her and then without much thought a sudden and final goodbye there were no tears this time usually there were no slap in the face that too was de rigueur with some of them in fact it had never gone out of style euros had not been flung in his face no name calling no pleading nothing nothing but that last look ending an affair had never been so easy and yet he could not sleep and only walking had gotten him through the night and to this early dawn under the accusatory trees rene michel petriz had no idea that for the first time in his life he was caught by something so foreign to him that he didn t recognize what it was that would not leave him alone his heart had no room for words like regret guilt remorse or the most dangerous word of all love he was built for speed designed in fact to please the eye to entice the touch and the sound of his voice had more than once obliterated a woman s defenses born with the lucky combination of looks charm intelligence and most importantly sans regret had made the most desirable gigolo in paris so this little fling he had ended a gratis diversion from the wealthy women who kept him secure should have never started it was best for all that he had killed it last night and it was good for business she had cost him a lot of time and money he looked into the dark windows of armani and was shocked when all he saw in them was the reflection of that last look in her eyes not cold not crushed simply disappointment if only it were later in the day and the stores were open silk ties and fine linen shirts would take his mind off of her and that final look when he told her it was over he walked on the ruby geraniums on the balconies of the hôtel plaza athénée glistened with diamond like touches of morning dew he smiled remembering the rich argentine woman whom in that very hotel had dropped her van cleef arpels diamond and ruby cocktail ring in his glass of champagne as payment for the night it was a cold memory and his smile faded he needed to get back to work for the rest of the way to the end of the avenue he was oblivious to the passing windows of bottega veneta and prada filled with things he would never need at the place de l alma he crossed to the intersection of avenue montagne and avenue george v and stopped in front of chez francis it was just opening he took a seat outside on the sidewalk just behind the green hedges the young waiter brought him a coffee and then retreated back inside to leave rene michel uncharacteristically slouched in his chair long legs stretched out before him exposing his scuffed louboutin soles he took a sip of his liquid breakfast and contemplated the light traffic on the pont de l alma slowly the flame of liberty across the place de l alma came into focus it marked the entrance to the tunnel where in 1997 princess diana died on the balustrade above the entrance to the tunn...
