French house Chopard has launched three new floral fragrances in the Les Fleurs Bijoux collection: Angélique Begum, Gardénia Tahia and Tubéreuse Maharané.
Les Fleurs Bijoux, a collection that expresses a vision of powerful femininity, represents the creative fusion of high jewelry and haute parfumerie. This diamond-pink trilogy features compositions of spectacular, dazzling white flowers.
Angélique Begum ~ "With its radiant angelica flower set alight by sunny orange blossom and patchouli wood, Angélique Begum opens to the light like an olfactory jewel, radiating the mysterious sillage of an empress of Asia."
Gardénia Tahia ~ "Inspired by the jewels of a Tahitian princess, Gardénia Tahia exudes the opulence of the gardenia flower, made deliciously addictive thanks to creamy coconut and Bourbon vanilla."
Tubéreuse Maharané ~ "Adorning the skin like the jewelry of an Indian queen, Tubéreuse Maharané releases a potent tuberose transformed by a creamy white chocolate and sandalwood accord."
Chopard Angélique Begum, Gardénia Tahia and Tubéreuse Maharané are available in 100 ml Eau de Parfum, $267 each.

Pink, pink, pink!
The angelica ones sounds ok, since I have no idea what Angelica smells like, but orange blossom is almost always charming to my sniffer and modern well washed patchoulis are inoffensive. The addition of gourmands to white powerhouse gardenia which is a tricky scent at the best of times (if you are going to call something gardenia, it should smell like gardenia, IMHO- I can’t really imagine how coconut contributes to that!) and to tuberose… well, I love Durga, so adding chocolate just seems like a waste of chocolate, but, I see that I am very tired and overly opinionated here. I will sniff them if I come across them, since I need more pink bottles in my life…it is 70 degrees here at dinner time, and tomorrow it is supposed to rain buckets. I think I will go re-watch All Creatures Great and Small and go to bed early. Tomorrow is another day, as Scarlet says! Happy Pi Day, those who observe the closest thing to a Science Holiday we have. I might have a Colleen slice of Key Lime pie for dinner…
Sleep very well meredifay!
