About
Une Amourette Roland Mouret by Etat Libre d'Orange is a Woody Aromatic fragrance for women and men. Une Amourette Roland Mouret was launched in 2017. The nose behind this fragrance is Daniela Andrier. Top notes are Neroli, Pink Pepper and Cardamom; middle notes are Iris, Patchouli and Peach; base notes are Akigalawood, Vanilla Absolute and Opoponax. "UNE AMOURETTE IS A LOVE AFFAIR — IT WON’T LAST FOREVER, BUT IT’S UNFORGETTABLE.It all began about eight years ago, on a cold winter evening, when Roland Mouret and his CEO Mark Langthorne came to the Etat Libre d’Orange offices, just above the boutique at 69 rue des Archives, Paris. He wanted to talk about a perfume with Etienne de Swardt, our creative director. Roland was a fan. He wore our parfum, and in a British newspaper article entitled “Little Black Book: Roland Mouret,” he wrote about us: “A unique parfum company that produces the best exclusive scents with a twist.”On that evening, we talked fashion and fragrance and the possibility of creating a perfume for Roland’s brand. And since we were drinking champagne, incredibly brilliant ideas emerged from the discussion. We were all very excited.But in the days to come, when we were sober and realistic, we all realized that the time wasn’t right. Etat Libre d’Orange had just completed a collaboration for Tom of Finland, and we were about to embark on another with Tilda Swinton. Following his phenomenal success with the Galaxy dress, Roland was creating more iconic dresses that would become equally celebrated: the Moon, Pigalle, Titanium, and many others.But we never forgot that remarkable evening and the ideas that came out of it. And it seemed inevitable that we would come back together. We had so much in common! For both of us, collaborations were appealing challenges. Roland created collections for the Gap and Banana Republic. Etat Libre d’Orange has worked with the Tom of Finland foundation, with Tilda Swinton on Like this, with Rossy de Palma on Eau de Protection, with Mx Justin Vivian Bond on The Afternoon of a Faun. We collaborated to create Attaquer Le Soleil Marquis de Sade, and teamed up with perfume critic Chandler Burr to develop You or Someone Like You. We both believe in a bold aesthetic, provocation, sensuality. We want our creations to enable clients to define themselves or become someone else. Roland drapes bodies — we drape skin. We use the same words: fusion, structure, magic, eroticism. We both have high profile fans. Roland talks about dressing to undress — and what better way is there to reveal the full power of a fragrance? Not to mention the fact that both our brands are creatively directed by hot, tempestuous Frenchmen. Etat Libre d’Orange and Roland Mouret. We’re made for each other. Together, we have merged our philosophies, our attitudes and our identities, and created Une Amourette." - press information of ELDO. The fragrance composition: Neroli, Iris, Vanille Absolut, Akigalawood Available in 50ml and 100ml Eau de Parfum.

About
Arpege Pour Homme by Lanvin is a Oriental Woody fragrance for men. Arpege Pour Homme was launched in 2005. The nose behind this fragrance is Olivier Pescheux. Top notes are Pink Pepper, Bitter Orange, Neroli and Mandarin Orange; middle notes are Iris, Nutmeg and Jasmine; base notes are Vanilla, Tonka Bean, Sandalwood and Patchouli. This is one of the latest fragrances for men by Lanvin. This perfume is completely balanced; interesting harmonies appear with different notes: pepper-like dryness of the top notes and waves of warmth find its way through it; opulent jasmine and ascetic cold iris; warmth of the base notes following the rich floral heart. Women may also like it, even though this is definitely a fragrance for men, very elegant and sophisticated. The main notes are: pink pimento, mandarin, bitter orange and neroli. The heart is composed of iris, jasmine, walnut and Latin American tea mate, while the base includes vanilla, Tonka beans, patchouli, Australian sandalwood. It was created in 2005.
