Shantung-Etro
Eau de Toilette
Year: 2018
Nose: internal study
Connecting distant lands, cultures and roots, giving shape to an unprecedented aesthetic paradigm, which has the advantage of being faithful only to itself. The key values of Etro's style, which this year celebrates the fiftieth anniversary of its foundation, are to be found in this enlightened creative approach. A story guided by the choral talent of a family, which since the beginning has united and distinguished itself in the search for a cosmopolitan and timeless elegance, in perfect balance between tradition and modernity. Udaipur, the new eau de parfum, collects the primary inspirations of the Maison and interprets them through the mottled nuances of a fragrance that evokes, in turn, the Mediterranean summer and the gardens of the Maharajas. It is a hymn to Italian craftsmanship, to the magic of India and to the many connections between these two worlds, which over time have woven the weave of an imaginative tale.
Starting with the name: Udaipur, the white city of Rajasthan overlooking Lake Pichola, known as the Venice of the East.
It all begins with the pure and joyful embrace of Sambac jasmine grown in India, where its angelic and noble petals have always blessed wedding rites, spreading grace, good omens and romanticism. The sparkling and explosive nature of bergamot imparts vivacity and freshness, en pendant with pink pepper and magnolia, the other top notes tuned together to create a powerful and delicate melange at the same time.
In the heart, caresses of gardena and lotus flower accompany jasmine, completing the gentle soul of the bouquet.
At the base, musk and cashmere wood combine with the intensity of patchouly to seal the exotic accent of theeau de parfum.
A mix of fine ingredients, handcrafted according to ancient rituals, in line with the family philosophy. Even the bottle, decorated with the iconic Paisley print, accurately sums up the soul of the brand: sober lines and precious surprises. The result is a skilful rhythm between hot and cold, between East and West, which adapts to the character of the wearer, without distinction between masculine and feminine.
Absolute synthesis of Etro's multifaceted and visionary personality.
