With Gentlewoman, I wanted to give women a dash of dandy. A composition conceived like an eau de Cologne, where the main focus lies with the pertinence and the quality of the ingredients. Gentlewoman never fails to impress me. How could she not? Modern, daring, I envy her freedom, her taste, her look. But I don’t want to tell you anymore and leave you with the following images to discover her complexity and character. I myself, am already conquered.-Romano Ricci, Juliette Has A Gun
Juliette Has A Gun Gentlewoman, (new packaging)
Romano Ricci introduces Gentlewoman, his tenth perfume for Juliette Has A Gun. In this chapter, which began in 2006 with Miss Charming (Francis Kurkdjian), Juliette shows that she can play two roles, perhaps Viola from Shakespeare's Twelfth Night. "She is the spiritual heir of Oscar Wilde, she plays with the accoutrements of masculine style. She oscillates between frivolity and arrogance or the art of pleasing by being displeasing. Just like the Gentlewoman, this eau de cologne with its feminine edge is stamped with a specific genre. A masculine fragrance dedicated to women. The note revolves around the Neroli Essence, the Orange Blossom Absolute, and a Musky woody base, while the Almond Essence takes us back to childhood it remains sufficiently dressed up to be worn with elegance".
