Luxist Giveaway: Balenciaga Eau de Parfum
Filed under: Cosmetics and Fragrance
Many design houses crank out fragrance after fragrance but not Balenciaga. The brand is launching its first major perfume since 1998, the first under creative director Nicolas Ghesquière. The Balenciaga Fragrance is an understated soft floral chypre scent with unpretentious French beauty Charlotte Gainsbourg as the face of the brand. Perfumer Olivier Polge aimed for an air of delicate mystery, a fragrance that is subtle but interesting. The scent is gently floral with an opener of demure violet that leads into warmer notes of pepper and mossy wood. The overall effect is one of minimalist cool with a hint of something antique and ladylike. The simple glass bottle with the craquelure style top matches the classic reserve of the scent.We're giving away one bottle of the Balenciaga Paris Eau De Parfum, 1.7 oz. valued at $95 to one lucky commenter.
