Last week when Christian was in NYC to introduce the Space NK employees
to his collection of fragrance he met me for coffee, so that I could see
the packaging in person and smell samples of the three fragrance
collection. To die!! Christian was also carrying around no less than
four international editions of Vogue, all of which featured the We Love
NY collection. The three fragrances are –
- I Heart Les
Carottes (my favorite – it’s made with actual organic carrots from
Harlem. It’s fresh, enticing, and possibly the most alluringly original
frangrance I’ve ever smelled).
- Love Coco (I’m not typically a
fan of coconut. It usually gives me a greasy, cheap feeling, but here
it’s balanced with coriander, tonka bean, vanilla bourbon, and white
cedar for a luxe beachy scent).
- Vamp a NY (this is the most
“conservative” of the three scents, though given the name it’s no
surprise that there’s definitly some oomph to it. This was the #1
selling fragrance at Le Bon Marche in Paris last month. The head notes
are Tuberose and Rum!).
Famed master perfumer Olivia Giacobetti
worked on all three scents and I must say, this is the line I’m most
excited to buy when it comes out this fall!
