DESCRIPTION

The soft lights seem to fondle the wrinkled sound of the old vinyl disc, and play hide-and-seek in the warm embrace of the jazz singer’s voice. The wide French-window is opened on to the terrace. Outside, only the cicadas’ shrill cries and the warm summer breeze. On the tea-table, a nosegay of freshly plucked flowers, flooding the room with a cocktail of smells and a bright colour palette. You uncork a champagne bottle and fill two flutes. The unmistakable fragrance of its yeast hovers in the air. You settle into the couch to enjoy this moment and take a good look around – every single detail is simply perfect. You then close your eyes, breathe deeply, listen to the sound of her steps on the stairs. You can’t help smiling. You wish these moments would never end.
A celebration of the one of the most luxurious materials in the perfume world, L'Attesa explores iris and its many facets with opulence. Using three types of precious iris, the star note is as creamy as buttered suede and as plush as thick, silvered velvet, but also immensely floral in a way that is quite remarkable. L'Attesa opens with buttery iris drenched in sparkling champagne that bears an original, inventive touch of yeast before the fragrance transitions into a sophisticated, clean, green floral that is enveloped with refreshingly crisp bergamot, green neroli, and a plush, mossy duet of oakmoss and tuberose. In its heart phase, the voluptuously creamy, floral iris is partnered with genuine Mysore sandalwood, then with supple, smoky leather in a breathtakingly sophisticated, unisex blend that lasts for hours before finally finishing as clean floral softness. One of the best iris fragrances to come out in years.
The design used to decorate L'Attesa bottles was inspired by a famous Dali painting... the pleasure of the meeting is melting with the pleasure of waiting for somebody – it is reflected in the image of a liquefying watch. And what looks like a tiny watch chain is actually inspired by the trailing bubbles in the champagne.
