Three years after Bottega Veneta’s eponymous first scent, the luxe Fashion Company introduces Knot, a fragrance collaboration between Creative Director Thomas Maier and Coty Prestige. Knot was composed by Daniela Andrier of Givaudan, and takes a different direction than its chypre predecessor that featured strong leather notes. Bottega Veneta Knot perfume opens with a clementine accord, adding mandarin, limette, neroli and orange flower to the mix. Aromatic lavender is at the heart and rose and peony provide floral touches to contrast the earthier musk and tonka beans at the base notes.
Bottega Veneta's Knot Clutch
According to Women’s Wear Daily, the flacon is topped with a matte gold cap in the shape of a knot — referencing Bottega Veneta’s best-selling Knot clutch. A print and digital ad campaign featuring Australian model Julia Nobis is planned for in store and point of sale.
Available in late August, Neiman Marcus and Bergdorf Goodman in the U.S. and Harrods in the U.K. have an exclusive launch ahead of the international September rollout, and Knot EDP will also be available in all Bottega Veneta boutiques worldwide. The target markets for Bottega Veneta perfumes include the U.S., Italy, Germany, the U.K. and the Middle East as well as Asia.
Knot will be available in 30-ml., 50-ml. and 75-ml. bottles, which will retail for $90, $125, and $160, respectively, in the U.S. Ancillary products of body lotion, shower gel and body cream will be offered as part of the collection.
