Azzedine Alaia Debuts First Fragrance Exclusively at Saks Fifth Avenue

Coconut Telegraph

After a celebrated career spanning more than three decades, renowned Parisian couturier Azzedine Alaïa debuts his first fragrance for women.  ALAÏA PARIS is available exclusively at Saks Fifth Avenue stores and on saks.com now through August 2016. Alaïa meticulously and personally oversaw each detail, working closely with a team of experts including longtime friend and collaborator Carla Sozzani, perfumer Marie Salamagne, photographer Paolo Roversi, bottle designer Martin Szekely and model Guinevere Van Seenus. The scent is resolutely modern.  The olfactory construction of the fragrance defines itself by its freshness. “It is not a parfum, but an eau de parfum,”says the designer. The formula  is created with fresh, aquatic mineral notes blended with airy notes of pink pepper, floral accords of freesia and peony, and animalic notes combined with musk to create the impression of bare skin.
