What if you could put your favorite dessert in a perfume bottle. What would it smell like and how would it look. Well in order to fit my lemon meringue pie in a perfume bottle, it would take some really sweet ingredients and the meringue would have to be at the top and slightly burnt.
Oh how luscious this all sounds. Guess what? My dream has come true. No really it has. I discovered a NEW perfume that was inspired by a top chef in Spain. He took his childhood memories and emotions and bottled them all up and it comes in the scent of a lemon. Yes a lemon.
NUVOL DE LLIMONA means "lemon cloud" is the NEW fragrance created in 2011 by perfumer, Agusti Vidal of Barcelona, Spain and Jordi Roca.
Jordi Roca, Pastry Chef |
Jordi Roca, a pastry chef creates mouth-watering desserts for the family business that are considered one of the best in the industry. NUVOL DE LLIMONA perfume is inspired from a dessert that was created by Chef Roca that consist of a "cloud of lemons surrounding cake treated to milk and sweeties".
I am so excited because Mr. Vidal scent me a sample and I should be receiving it shortly. Why am I so excited? This is due to what I love about perfumery and that is the ART OF PERFUMERY. The ART OF PERFUMERY comes from inspirations, travels, memories, emotions and concepts that draw from an energy that promotes a positive ray of light that forms into a perfumery. It is the niche category of perfumery that draws me more and more on how wonderful a vision can be with an open heart to creations of all kinds.
NUVOL DE LLIMONA features TOP NOTES: bergamot, tangerine
MIDDLE NOTES: lily of the valley, milk and custard
BASE NOTES: sugar, syrup, toasted sugar and musk.
It comes in a 50 ml white bottle that is round and puffy like a white cloud and cost 50.00 euros.
My review of NUVOL DE LLIMONA "LEMON CLOUD" will occur when I receive my sample.
