"With its sunny notes and vibrant energy, Citrus Riviera is an ode to vitality, dynamism and self-improvement."says David Benedek, founder of BDK Parfums, a young Parisian perfume house.
Created with perfumer Ralf Schwieger, Citrus Rivera is rooted in the Mediterranean and refers to its flora and mistral wind. "Citrus Rivera is inspired by this Mediterranean shore, its flowers and citrus fruits. Woven by the Mistral, marine fragrances blossom in the tossing of the waves, impregnated with minerality and salt crystals. A dose of freshness emerges in a bath of citrus fruits and figs gilded by the sun. Then it's on to the hinterland, where tender jasmine, orange blossom and immortelle reveal themselves to the rhythm of the cicadas. These Mediterranean flowers, delicately flavored with eucalyptus, finally take to the sea, guided by the movement of water, to meet patchouli and vetiver. A story of water, citrus and sunshine "explains the perfumer.
A special feature of this creation is the limited edition packaging, illustrated by Édith Carron. " For this limited edition of Citrus Riviera, available at BDK Parfums and La Samaritaine, I chose to collaborate with illustrator Édith Carron. Her unique, poetic style resonates with the aesthetic and sunny atmosphere of the Citrus Riviera fragrance created with perfumer Ralf Schwieger. Her illustrations, right on the fragrance box, stimulate the imagination and perfectly capture the essence of the French Riviera and Cap d'Antibes, where I love to recharge my batteries. The more seasoned of you will recognize in the choice of colors those of the Olympic rings, a nod to this moment of unity that will transcend borders to bring the whole world together".explains David Benedek.
