Daphne Guinness Daphne by Comme des Garcons {2009}: Luxury Biography {New Perfume} {Celebrity Fragrance}

There was an early announcement in October 2007 about an upcoming Daphne Guinness fragrance that would be created with Comme des Garçons (check out article on Niche Celebrity Perfumes: Rolling Out The Scented Red Carpet). The news are now confirmed with a launch planned for September 2009.

As with some celebrity perfumes such as L'Air de Rien by Miller Harris or Halle by Halle Berry, Daphne by Daphne Guinness attempts this semi-literary exercise, the autobiographical olfactory quote inserted in a perfume composition...

Lolita Lempicka Si Lolita (2009): The Wonderful Perfume of Happiness {New Perfume}

Designer Lolita Lempicka is preparing to introduce a new women's perfume called Si Lolita presenting all the trappings of the magical Lempicka universe but this time the woman that is envisioned is not so much an otherworldly creature than an adorable Parisian living in an enchanted and enchanting Paris "...smiling to a passer-by for nothing, running towards her love with, in her sillage, this wonderful perfume of happiness, Si Lolita".

The perfume is presented as a "revisited masculine" and an illustration of the "cheeky temperament that spices have when put in the feminine". The perfume is said to rely on the secret fresh spiciness of sweet pea...

L'Artisan Parfumeur Cote d'Amour (2009): The Risk of the Central Perfume Motif, with a Comparative Note on Diorissimo {Perfume Review} {New Fragrance}

Paramnésie by Christine Lebrasseur

Côte d'Amour is the latest L'Artisan Parfumeur from their 100% natural and organic series to come with Ecocert and Cosmebio certifications. As June 5, 2009 is international Environment Day to be celebrated on a global scale with the launch in 130 countries of the earth movie Home by Yann Arthus-Bertrand co-produced by Luc Besson and François-Henri Pinault of PPR, this is a fitting fragrance to consider wearing as a tribute, and beyond the gesture consider the interest of a new school of perfumes.

For those who cannot make it to the movies on Friday, the film which looks simply stunning from the preview images (see website), will be available on You Tube as this is a social project rather than a financial one (entry fees are waved or nominal - 2 € in Europe). The movie is meant to call attention to the unique beauty of planet earth, the dangers that beset it and the possible venues to remedy the issues at hand, chief amongst them climate warming. Yann Arthus-Bertrand has become famous for his breathtakingly beautiful aerial landscape photography, and although Côte d'Amour strikes a more intimate, familial chord it also manages to encompass in its own way the atmosphere of a long stretch of summery northern beach coast with the application of just a few drops of perfume. Moreover it does so with the same good intentions and to satisfy ethically-oriented customers...

WienerBlut Klubwasser (2009): For the Love of 19th Century Vienna {New Perfume - New Line}

WienerBlut is a new Austrian perfume brand interested in resurrecting popular bouquets that were worn on handkerchiefs in 19th century Vienna like the modern survivor Mouchoir de Monsieur by Guerlain. It takes its name which literally means "Viennese Blood" from a waltz by Johann Strauss II created in 1873 which was reportedly on every Viennese's lips. It ultimately also became the title of an operette-anthology of Strauss's work in 1899.

As we can see this is a very Viennese affair,

"WienerBlut is an Austrian label dedicated to the production of authentic luxury goods of Viennese provenance."...

Jo Malone Vanilla & Anise (2009) {New Perfume}

Jo Malone will offer a new pairing of scents with Vanilla & Anise in their library of fragrances that I like to compare to a naturalist's butterfly collection. It is scheduled for a September 2009 release. The perfume is described as a floral vanilla and "designed to evoke the moment that vanilla orchids bloom at day-break in Madagascar,...it explores different aspects of vanilla, blending it with white flowers and spices."...

Calvin Klein CK Free (2009) {New Perfume} {Men's Cologne}

Added: Perfume Review of CK Free for Men

Calvin Klein will launch a new men's perfume in September 2009 called CK Free. The scent is meant to rally a lot of people looking for the same thing, or rather escaping from the same reality...by wearing the same cologne. How ironic is it that in order to attempt to flee the daily grind one is invited to wear what sounds like Eau de Grind en Masse. Hope that works,

"CK Free has been created to offer men an everyday escape away from the daily grind regardless of their age, ethnicity or social status. It's very democratic."...

Neotantric Fragrances is a new Stockholm-based Swedish line of perfumes owned by Jesper Rönnbäck loosely inspired by the philosophy of Tantra and definitely by camp. The brand obviously does not take itself seriously enough to write philosophical treatises on the subject, so instead they created 6 perfumes....

Van Cleef & Arpels Collection Extraordinaire (2009) {New Perfumes - New Line}

Jeweler Van Cleef & Arpels is going to inaugurate a new, higher-end fragrance library from September 2009 called the Collection Extraordinaire which is also characterized as Haute Parfumerie in reference to Haute Couture.

Like other perfume brands' upper-tiered niche lines such as Guerlain L'Art et la Matière, Les Parisiennes or Armani Privé or Prada exclusives or Hermès Hermessences and soon the upcoming Cartier Les Heures du Parfum, it is an exploration of perfume as supposedly a more authentic item of luxury and creative research....

Gocce di Byron Saladero, Tramonti, Volastra, Guvano, Punta Mesco (2009) {New Fragrances - New Line}

There is a new confidential niche perfume line that has appeared in Italy called Gocce di Byron (Drops of Byron). The collection is generally inspired by the concept of an olfactory voyage taking precedence over the more habitual first visual sensations on a trip and the idea that perfumes can help us find our own territory and sense of place.

More particularly, Gocce di Byron seeks to embark you on a local olfactory voyage thanks to an itinerary delineated by verses of the poet Byron and the five abstract painterly squares that accompany the 5 perfumes, making the set up resemble an installation....
