8 fragrances have been created for the Louvre, which are associated with famous sculptures and paintings. A review by Sunday21.
Relatively recently, about five years ago the French perfume company Officine Universelle Buly was reborn. And now they have the honor of creating eight fragrances, which will be dedicated to the masterpieces presented in the most popular world museum of the Louvre. In this way, the collaboration involves finding new ways to visit the museum on a larger scale, and the idea is to awaken all the feelings of visitors while viewing the masterpieces of world art. Eight perfumery masters will work on fragrances that should inspire the audience with their greatness. They were by no means limited by the ingredients and the cost of the finished product, as we know the masterpieces of the Louvre are priceless, so perfumes should not be limited in price.
The most famous masterpieces of world art will now be supplemented with fragrant perfumes.
Among the selected sculptures, the perfumers are ancient Greek masterpieces - "Venus of Milos", "Nika of Samothrace" and "Nymph with Scorpion" by the sculptor Lorenzo Bartolini. Also perfume compositions will acquire the painting "The Swimsuit of Valpinson", "The Big Odalisque", "Saint Joseph" by the artist Georges de Latour, "The Talk in the Park" by Thomas Gainsborough, and the famous painting "The Hallows" by Jean-Honoré Fragonard. The famous master of perfumery Dorothea Pio chose for herself a picture of artist Gainsborough, in it she saw the incredible grace of the characters, so inspired by the greenery and petals of roses, so it is worth waiting for the floral fragrance. Daniela Rosh Andrie chose "The Swimmer." Most likely we will be waiting for a green fragrance with notes, orange, lavender and neroli, because these are the components that inspired the perfumer from a brilliant picture. To great disappointment "Mona Lisa" didn't get her perfumer to create the fragrance, maybe it's just not the time yet. Perfumed waters will be sold on the territory of the Louvre itself at a price so far unknown to us.
