Sephora Exclusives: Dahlia & Vines and White Sandalwood
One of the lines that impressed us last year, not only for the fragrance but for its beautiful flacons and affordable prices is Nest Fine Fragrances. Amazon Lily, Passiflora and Midnight Fleur was the first foray into perfume for the brand under Creative Director Laura Slatkin who chose perfumers Christophe Laudamiel and Jerome Epinette to bring the botanical artworks of 18th Century British artist Mrs. Mary Delany to life for a contemporary audience (both Midnight Fleur and Amazon Lilly were 2013 Fragrance Foundation Finalists).
As reported last year, a few select niche brands are now available at Sephora as well as better specialty stores, boutiques perfumeries. Nest Fine Fragrances joins these lines, but with a notable difference; new packaging was designed with the Sephora customer in mind ,a special display unit was created to reflect the beauty emporiums unique sensibility and Sephora will have the exclusive on two new fragrances and will be rolling the line out to 160 doors as well as Sephora online:
Dahlia & Vines is an opulent combination of beloved floral notes. The essence of a lush bouquet of peony, dahlia, rose and daffodil is wrapped in green garden vines and blended with hints of pink pepper, lychee and raspberry. Composed by Jerome Epinette (info updated 9/3/103)
White Sandalwood is a sophisticated fragrance that combines white sandalwood from India and Australia with creamy almond, white musk and exotic spices. This alluring fragrance balances sensual woody notes with decadent essences. Composed by Christophe Laudamiel (info updated 9/3/103)
