LINARI Finest Fragrances at Fragranze 10














Olá a todos! Estou finalmente de volta após um longo período ausente. Julho foi um mês para trabalhar em uma empresa de fragrâncias como assistente de perfumista. Excelente experiência! Deu para se ter uma ideia de como é o dia a dia de um perfumista. Em Agosto, foram as merecidas férias e Setembro, de volta ao Grasse Institute of Perfumery que começou com tudo!!! Este semestre promete e agora estou partindo para a reta final, rumo a graduação.

Mas o grande momento deste mês foi ter participado pela primeira vez da exposição Pitti Fragranze na Florença, Itália.  Fui ao céu e voltei. Estar em contato com tantas marcas de perfumes de nicho maravilhosas, conhecer pessoalmente perfumistas e outros importantes bloggers e formadores de opinião desta indústria, foi realmente incrível. Algo para nunca mais esquecer. E para celebrar este momento inesquecível, trouxe na mala algumas lembranças que fico muito feliz em dividir com vocês. 

Vamos começar por Linari, Fine Fragrances. A casa alemã, fundada pelo alemão Rainer Diersche, é mais conhecida pelas linhas de aromas para ambientes, mas alguns anos atrás lançou sua linha de Eau de Parfum contendo até o momento, 7 perfumes EDP: VISTA SUL MARE, ELEGANZA LUMINOSA, NOTTE BIANCA, ANGELO DI FIUME, ACQUA SANTA, FUOCO INFERNALE e o último lançamento da marca PORTA DEL CIELO.

ENGLISH VERSION:

Hello all! I'm finally back after a long period away. July was a month to work on a fragrance company as perfumer’s assistant. It was an excellent experience! I had the chance to have a pretty good idea on how the day by day as a perfumer goes. In August, I had my well deserved vacation and September, back at the Grasse Institute of Perfumery that started very busy already!! This semester is promising and now I'm starting to get closer to graduation.


But the big moment this month was taking part for the first time of the exhibition Pitti Fragranza in Florence, Italy. I went to heaven and came back. Being in touch with so many wonderful niche perfumes brands, to personally get to known perfumers and other key bloggers and influencers in the industry was truly amazing. It was something to never forget. Now, to celebrate this unforgettable moment, I brought in the luggage a few memories that I am very happy to share with you.


Let's start by Linari, Finest Fragrances.

Press release:
 
Twelve years ago, I proposed to perfumers that I found particularly talented to create perfumes freely. Many of these collaborations gave birth  to a rich collection of 18 fragrances. 18 fragrances, each with their own personality, as created by artists of different styles, with rarest natural raw materials  and most modern synthetic products.

The advice of our experts and vendors' columns feel "my eyes are the best aids to choose" fragrance "and an essential part of our house. I like the idea, however, also be able to offer or to "give the whole shop." This is why I have devised three sets: complete collection, women's collection, men's collection, the opportunity to try each fragrance at their own pace, depending on his mood, or perhaps the one we adopt n 'have never thought to wear.
