Classic Blue

Posted by Robin on 10 December 2019 3 Comments

This exclusive fragrance created by Firmenich Perfumer Ashley Balavoine combines an accord of a fluffy cloud with waterlily and seaweed absolute. Notes of blue musk, minerals, and ocean timber give depth and calm for a reassuring finish. [...]

Flavorist Eric Tang created a refreshing sweet blueberry flavor marked by an elegant aroma and initial fruity taste -- with an experiential smell of fresh green and a maturing final finish of floral and Classic Blue notes. This distinctive taste was showcased during the Pantone launch event in a variety of products from jam to tea.

— (Classic Blue is Pantone's color of the year for 2020, in case you missed the news.) Read more in Firmenich Wants You To Smell & Taste the Pantone Color of the Year at Beauty Packaging.

    I would like to smell a fluffy cloud please! 😀

    Honestly, all of this appeals to me — the color blue, blueberries, the smell of ocean and woods.

        Ooh, I didn’t even think of blueberries for the project. I might have one or two scents with a blueberry note
