H&M Mandarin Gold, The New Noir

by: Sandra Raicevic Petrovic

The collaboration between H&M and the house of Balmain attracted the public’s attention and besides a fashion collection it resulted in a perfume expected on the market in December, 2015. In addition to the perfume H&M Balmain, the fashion house of H&M presents two other fragrances accompanying the existing perfume collection. 

H&M MANDARIN GOLD limited edition 2015 key notes mandarin neroli cardamom amber

Mandarin Gold is a women’s perfume whose composition was characterized as light, fluffy, easy to wear and warm. It was inspired by sunny parts of Sicily where orange trees blossom. A union of neroli and juicy mandarin flavors blend with delicate, spicy chords of cardamom and the warmth of amber to ensure a comfortable drydown. Mandarin Gold was presented as a limited edition 55ml Eau de Toilette. Besides the EDT, the offer also includes a 160ml Mandarin Gold Body Mist. 

H&M THE NEW NOIR limited edition 2015 key notes Turkish rose oud wood sandalwood

The New Noir poses contrast to Mandarin Gold since it offers a darker composition full of mystery. A modern mixture of Turkish rose, intense oud and milky sandalwood create sophisticated, elegant shades. The New Noir was presented as a limited edition 55ml Eau de Toilette, as well as the body mist version in 160ml flacons.

Both fragrances can be found on the official website H&M Canada priced at $12.99 CD. Lighter versions of the two new fragrances, Body Mists, are priced at $5.99 CD.
