‘The Collection is inspired by Matthew’s travels and conjures up the atmosphere of destinations such as India, Ibiza, Marrakech and Bali’.

Matthew Williamson Fragrance launched very successfully in the summer of 2005 and was followed in 2007 by the introduction of Sheer, a softer and less heady fragrance.  Since the original launch, Matthew has become increasingly aware that there is a trend for designers to maximise on the strength of a signature fragrance by identifying key notes and releasing these as fragrances in their own right. It is also evident from many of today’s launches that niche fragrances are having a rejuvenating effect on the business.

http://www.escentual.co.uk are pleased to announce the arrival of the latest fragrance from Angel Schlesser. ANGEL SCHLESSER ESSENTIAL FOR MEN

THE CONCEPT. The essence of what is classic

ANGEL SCHLESSER ESSENTIAL is the women�s fragrance with the most resounding international success in the ANGEL SCHLESSER perfume line. In its wake, ESSENTIAL FOR MEN is created, an eau de toilette that intensely expresses the soul of its creator�s style.

ANGEL SCHLESSER, who made his debut in fashion designing men�s collections, has transformed the sobriety and revival of the most elegant and timeless classics into the essence of his style, an essence that takes its inspiration from tradition and then transforms it into modernity.

This new fragrance for men, just like its female counterpart, seeks the classic, eternal features of traditional perfumery from the past to project them into the future and endow them with up-to-date, revived elements.

ANGEL SCHLESSER ESSENTIAL FOR MEN is aimed at modern men who feel attracted by the classics.

Urbanites who are at home with computers yet are passionate about classical literature; lovers of avant-garde architecture who are familiar with the structure of a Renaissance palazzo; men who are curious about scientific advances yet can appreciate a sunset. The pure and its essence. The contemporary and its roots. The tradition nurturing the avant-garde. The classic that always endures. The eternal.

‘A collection of gentlemen’s colognes from Richard James, each reflecting an element of the character of Richard’s style’

Since the opening of his first store on Savile Row in 1992, the Richard James name has become synonymous with the best aspects of men’s style, from ‘dressing up’ in elegant bespoke tailoring to ‘dressing down’ in luxury sportswear. With a collection of elegant Richard James accessories, including his famous jewel coloured socks, Richard identifies with the need for various key elements to create a modern wardrobe. With this in mind, he now adds to his signature fragrance a collection of three new colognes to suit the different styles and moods of his legion of fans!

The three new colognes are Lavender, Vetiver and Cardamom and they have been skilfully created by the perfumers IFF to offer a subtle interpretation of their key, signature notes. In comparison, the composition of the original Richard James Cologne is more complex and was inspired by the smell of clean and freshly starched cotton shirts.

Jean Bugatti with the Bugatti Royale

Since Ettore and his brother, Jean Bugatti started delivering cars in 1909 Bugatti has been associated with perfection, luxury and refinement. The most famous car they created was the Bugatti Royale which is still considered to be one of the most luxurious ever built.

The level of luxury is soon to be replicated by Bugatti's first steps into the perfume industry. Just as the 'boss' Ettore Bugatti personally presented and delivered his automobiles to clients at the Chateau Saint Jean in Molsheim all those years ago, this time around the Domaine de la Vingette was the location for the reveal of the Veyron 16.4, a car with a maximum speed of 300km/h and a consumption of 40 liters for 100km. At the event Bugatti also presented their perfume for men, a fragrance in perfect harmony with the identity and values of the brand.

The Prestige Edition

The traditions live on through the exclusive 'Prestige' and 'Multiple' Editions which retail at £2,395.00 and 1,550.00 respectively. The most expensive perfume we have ever stocked, these editions also come in the most opulent packaging ever seen at Escentual. A ring shaped stand replicates the curves of a classic Bugatti and holds in the fragrance bottle with magnets. The Eau de Parfum 'Multiple Edition' is coated with chrome and the 'Prestige edition' with 24 carat gold. The Prestige edition also encases a bottle made of pure crystal.

The 'Prestige' Editions are limited to a mere 400 numbered pieces, and the 'Multiple' Editions to just 4000 worldwide. These sought after pieces are only stocked in selected, prestigious retailers which have been approved by Bugatti themselves.

The Multiple Edition

We feel privilleged to be part of the distribution of such an exclusive fragrance.

If this level of opulence isn't friendly enough on your wallet then there is a more affordable way to be a part of the Bugatti Legend. The 'Edition Luxe' will be made available after the launch of the limited editions and comes in a bottle made of elaborate heavy glass with sharp edges. A blue line, the emblematic colour of the brand is visible within the bottle to represent the Bugatti soul. These versions start at £30.00 for the 30 ml edition, increasing to £64.00 for the 125ml edition.

The Edition Luxe

Bugati is a mythic name that has become immortalised in the memory of the general public, it symbolises exception and the inaccessible dream. Now anyone can be a part of that dream, a small part of the Bulgatti heritage made affordable and accessible for the first time.
