It’s supposed to be a winter perfume, but frankly I see it  it easily blending into the springtime weather or on a rainy day like this (mind you, it’s been raining like mad in the East Midlands)

It’s a creation by Jean-Claude Ellena, who has worked for the likes of Hermès, Van Cleef & Arpels, Bulgari and many others.

Available at Liberty and Les Senteurs, London.

This print is inspired by pollen and my flowers of choice, lilies from my garden.I wanted to create a strong contrast between textures and color, so I chose a very strong blue dust set on a monochromatic background.
It’s still a very raw version of a print in its concept stage, since I haven’t thought of a way to blend in these elements alltogether in a design. Curios about what it would look like on chiffon.

Getting warmed up with some irises for now. Thank you for looking.

Their designs are opulent with a serios dose of vintage inspiration, a mix of crystals and gold plating, but at the same time mixing  trends just enough to give them a modern edge.

I purchased these Dune earrings about a year and half ago, they’re slowly making their  way into a shooting soon enough.
Nothing quite like a bit of Deco glamour infused in an outfit.

Their latest collection is available here: Net-A-Porter
