Eau de Parfum

In 2010, Masque Milano released their first fragrances, Petra and Dolceacqua to rave reviews before focusing on The Opera Collection. A decade later, new interpretations of both fragrances are back in a new collection, Le Donne di Masque. Each fragrance will carry the name of a woman or city ( that might also be the name of a woman) and will be exclusively designed by female perfumers.

Nice, 8am: Sunshine and light traffic on the Promenade des Anglais. Here she comes, with the top down, and you jump in. As the road unwinds, the view of the gulf suddenly becomes amazing. Her colorful Hermes scarf sweeps with the breeze and you breathe deeply to catch the rich mixture of cote d’azur flavours, in their magic blend of floreal and marine. She parks in a panoramic spot and draws out of the back of the car a basket with your breakfast. She doesn’t mind sitting on the ground, she bought her lovely dress at the market stalls for a few dollars and it is not worth worrying about. You open a bottle of Beaujolais wine, and lean towards her to pour some in her glass. You close your eyes, as you smell her perfume. So much in line with her, with her style: sweet and mellow, a mixture of flowers and fruit and some hints of vanilla at the bottom.
