Niche line Frapin has launched Paradis Perdu, a new unisex fragrance:
Created with the vitality of Art Nouveau, Paradis Perdu is an ode to the vineyards around the Frapin estate. The perfumer, Amélie Bourgeois, drew her inspiration from the expanses of land, conjuring effervescence with curved lines, somewhere between gushing and encircling.
The notes include bergamot, grapefruit, citron, yellow mandarin, leaf blend (basil, spinach, vine, ravensara), galbanum, elemi, paradisamide, vetiver, hay, Virginia cedarwood, rosewood, labdanum, woods, mosses and musks.
Frapin Paradis Perdu is available now at Luckyscent, 100 ml Eau de Parfum, $145.

Pretty name and the combination of notes (paradisamide? anything to do with Vanessa?) sound promising but good grief the copy! “….conjuring effervescence………somewhere between gushing and encircling.” – WTF?
