Paco Rabanne Christmas Market – popping-up near you!

We love a christmas market, but one dedicated to perfume sounds even better, right? Well hold on to your bobble hats, because Paco Rabanne fragrances are staging the first ever fragrance inspired Christmas Market, which will pop up in four key locations across the nation over the festive shopping period.

Scroll down to see the locations and dates – and put them in your diary now!

‘A golden feast for all the senses, house of Paco Rabanne will be opening its festive doors to the Art of Gifting with a multi-sensory Christmas Market experience, offering shoppers the chance to immerse themselves in the Paco Rabanne universe.

Dedicated to bringing a fragrant universe to life unlike ever before the Paco Rabanne Christmas Market will run in conjunction with an integrated digital campaign that has been inspired by the craftmanship of the metal worker; a nod to the iconic laser discs fashioned in metal by the House of Paco Rabanne.’

We can’t wait to wrap up in something cosy, grab a mulled wine and get our noses ready to be full-immersed in fragrances. What a brilliant idea – we so hope this becomes a permanent fixture on the festive fragrance calendar!

Olympēa Aqua eau de toilette – a fresh new way to wear gourmand…?

We must admit totally falling for the Greek Gods featured in the stylishly sexy ad campaign for the original Olympēa, launched last year. Now, get ready to swoon once again, as Paco Rabanne have launched a new version – this time an eau de toilette housed in a beautifully frosted talismanic bottle, and intriguingly a marriage of fresh-airyness with a sizzling gourmand undertone. Think salt water slowly cascading from a perfectly bronzed body as they emerge from a crystal blue sea to the warm sand of the beach… oh yes, we’re right there.

Heart notes: ginger flower
Base notes: woods, ambergris, salt crystal note, vanilla

It will be interesting to see if this is a gentle lapping of the scent shores or a huge tidal wave of aquatic style perfumes coming to the fore once more – something we’ve not really seen since their original entré in the 90s. Perhaps as food trends mix with fashion and fragrance, too (salted caramel has been every where the past year – not that we’re complaining!) it’s a fascinating new merging of olfacive families – a fresher approach just in time for the (we hope) hotter months ahead…
