Olfactive Studio Still Life In Rio (2016)

Olfactive Studio are introducing a new fragrance inspired by a photography called Still Life in Rio, a composition which stands on its own while making reference in name only to a previous perfume, Still Life. For the first time, the brand are incorporating a destination approach...

"Still Life in Rio is a vibrant scene that depicts awakening. The elements unfurl,
striking a pleasant balance, skirting the water, skirting the skin. A landscape with
hypnotic boulders forming a myriad of tiny islands, including the familiar Sugarloaf;
the enticing waters of Guanabara Bay; unparalleled light; the gentle presence
of plant life and city peaks; reflections rippling across the stone balcony whence
this view was sourced. The dawning, the beginning of each material."

The perfume was created by perfumer Dora Baghriche of Firmenich based on a photograph by Flavio Veloso.

"While the art of light shines through this new creation, this sunny perfume is best described in terms of starlight, the primeval flicker. Exotic and luminous, Still Life in Rio is a new and unique scent,"

The eau de parfum has top notes of yuzu, ginger, mint, lemon, mandarin seguing into a heart of Jamaican hot peppers, pink pepper, black pepper, coconut water. The base rests on rum, Brazilian Copaiba essences, accords of white leather.
