Description
A beautifully atmospheric floral fragrance, with a focal note of the fleshy petaled magnolia blossom, that bridges the gap between classical & modern; both in its form & by its use of fragrant materials. Follow the bees' path down into the heart of the flowers of Spring, & drink it all in from the cool surfaces of dew drenched leaves & petals, to the warmer, inner chambers found deep within. Au Coeur du Calice, (In the Heart of the Calyx) references a long discontinued Francois Coty perfume of 1912, that was housed in one of Rene Lalique's most famous perfume bottle designs. It is a lovely light blue, flower shaped bottle with a gorgeous bee stopper. Anyone who collects perfumes & perfume bottles has seen & surely coveted this rare bottle...and I am among them. It has always inspired me & sent me into a deep reverie into what the original perfume might have smelled like. When contemplating the design for this, I knew that I wanted to focus on the fleshy petaled beauty, Magnolia. I also wanted to create something that truly felt like Spring was bursting forth from the bottle. I kept imagining a landscape filled with color... blossoming petals in every direction, & in every flower a bee rolling in pollen & drinking in the precious nectar. Au Coeur du Calice is my own fragrant fantasy; a picture of Spring as seen through bees' eyes & felt through their senses. Au Coeur du Calice invites you to enter the bees' inner world; to dive down into the heart of each flower calyx, all pollen-y sweet, with fresh, & fleshy petals.
