The Berlin Story
"Does Berlin smell of Berlin? Wearing today while living in Berlin, I can say, yes!"
– Olaf, EauxLove, Germany
Woody, citrus, spicy — a contrast of light and dark
"With this perfume I wanted to evoke the concrete and steel of Berlin — and the forest and lakes around the city.
"Carefree summers, the freshness of the water, swimming at the Strandbad Wannsee. And gritty urban living, it’s leather, smoke, spices, cups of black tea, being inside and underground. Decadent, poor but sexy. "
"It’s a city of brutalist apartment blocks, concrete, elegant parquet floors, modern bohemians."
