The Brooklyn Story
“It makes me think of the Brooklyn of my childhood – strolling around the streets and Prospect Park” – Lynda, a customer in the USA
It's go-go-go. The fizz of an urban playground.
Power-walking to a breakfast meeting over the Brooklyn Bridge.
A lazy May afternoon in the sun at Prospect Park, in Park Slope, warmth on the skin. Small flowers in the grass. Fresh air.
It’s life on the sidewalk, early summer breezes, the glow from the lighting in bars and diners, bright apartments with books. Cocktails with friends.
The perfume notes:
Top: the scent opens with bergamot, squeezed lemon and orange juice. Incense, cardamom, fresh air and ozonic notes
Mid: the heart of this perfume is composed around magnolia, orris root and transparent flowers
Base: musks, white woods, benzoin, amber
