We’ll take you on a trip around the world! To London, Paris, Tokyo, Calabria, India and even the Mojave Desert. We’ll take you to cities and the wilderness. And we’ll show you which fragrances were inspired by these places. Now they can inspire you – to explore, travel, or to reach for a fragrance you haven’t tried.

Exceptional Energy, Exceptional Fragrances

There are the cities and places that have a specific atmosphere, something you end up bringing home with you, a hidden desire to go back again. Some will fascinate you with their personality or colour palette, others with their silence. And the fragrances that reflect them are just as unique. Which ones do we like best?

European Capitals

Eisenberg Back to Paris is just as vibrant as the French capital itself! It’s bold and unmistakable. From mandarin oranges and rhubarb to notes of violet and iris, finishing its journey through the city with woody notes, patchouli and vanilla. It’s bold, but gets sweeter by the second. It’s lively, but it whispers that if it’s worth it, it’ll show you its tamer side…

As romantic as London waking up into a gentle misty haze – that’s Burberry Her London Dream. It doesn’t scream to get your attention but waits until you notice it. Until you register its refreshing notes of ginger and lemon and delicate middle notes featuring rose and peony, as well as its ambergris base notes. Because it knows you’ll fall in love once you do!

Valentino Born In Roma Donna carries inside it the unmistakable confidence of a proud Roman woman. It’s also accompanied by a touch of timelessness and a whole lot of elegance – all inside a bottle inspired by old Italian architecture. And its composition? Italian lemons, sparkling jasmine, vanilla. Bellissima!

Fragrances Inspired by the Old World

Holiday Destinations

Let Nishane Ambra Calabria transport you to Calabria, Italy. A perfume extract that’ll make you believe that you can do anything you dream of in life! It’s as thrilling as any day spent on the coast. It’s intense, but the freshness of green notes and bergamot and coriander balance out the richness of vanilla, ambergris and musk. 

Fragrances from Coastal Areas

A Land Far, Far Away…

Karl Lagerfeld Tokyo Shibuya is an Eau de Parfum inspired by one of the world’s busiest pedestrian crossings, Shibuya Crossing in Tokyo. It’s buzzing, overflowing, colourful and utterly its own, just like this fragrance, which promises to reveal every little bit of your personality. Cherry blossom, magnolia, peony and the stunning aroma of green notes are a must. 

Jaipur, also known as the Pink City, is located in India. And its unique personality is hidden inside Boucheron Jaïpur Bouquet. Thanks to grapefruit, mango and citron, it has a delightfully sunny personality. Arabian jasmine gives it an oriental edge and cashmeran adds a special softness to the base notes. It combines tradition with the 21st century and is perfect for the summer.
