Beauty house Coty has unveiled new fragrances from Calvin Klein, Gucci and Hugo Boss.
Calvin Klein introduces CK One Summer Daze, the brand’s latest expression in the CK One fragrance pillar. It is a multi-faceted eau de toilette created by Master Perfumer Ilias Ermenidis and Senior Perfumer Clement Gavarry.
CK One Summer Daze opens with a kumquat top note, followed by iced mint tea heart, musk and vetiver, to “capture the essence of the summer season in a bottle”.
“Inspired by the ultimate road trip”, the updated CK One Summer Daze bottle features vibrant orange glass and bold yellow branding.
The outer packaging – designed by British artist Harry Cartwright – includes vintage-style imagery of palm trees on beaches.
CK One Summer Daze is available now in travel retail in Europe and will be available on-counter in Asia Pacific from 1 April.
Calvin Klein Eternity Summer Daze is another introduction, with the Eternity bottles refreshed with new juices: turquoise blue for men and pink for women.
Perfumers Jacques Huclier and Laurent Le Guernec reimagined the original Calvin Klein Eternity compositions for men and for women respectively, with fruitier and fresher notes emblematic of summer.
Calvin Klein Eternity Summer Daze for Men is a fruity eau de toilette with sparkling oceanic notes, a mandarin top note leading to a heart of lavender and minty wood base. Eternity Summer Daze for Women is a floral, fruity eau de parfum. A top note of iced red berries granita leads to a rose water heart and jasmine base.
Eternity Summer Daze outer packaging – also designed in collaboration with Harry Cartwright – features a beach backdrop. Photographed in black and white, the monochrome packaging pays homage to the signature Eternity advertising campaign, which was also shot without colour.
The three new fragrances feature a vegan formula, formulated with naturally derived alcohol, with 89% of ingredients from natural origin. Packaging is derived from recycled materials.
The new Gucci Bloom Eau de Toilette is available now in travel retail in 30ml, 50ml and 100ml formats. It is described as a “lighter, more luminous interpretation of the Bloom signature” which stays true to the ingredients of the original Gucci Bloom edp’s trio of Jasmine, Tuberose and Rangoon Creeper. Neroli offers a green citrus facet and a twist on Bloom’s white floral signature.
Gucci Bloom Eau de Toilette introduces a subtle paler pink tone and is presented in a frosted and luminous square-shaped glass bottle. Design features include the Toile de Jouy Herbarium House print of leaves, cherry branches and flowers and black frame. The outer packaging has the same pattern and colour palette.
Gucci Bloom Eau de Toilette is backed by a campaign by photographer and director Floria Sigismondi, with shots set in ancient La Scarzuola and featuring director and actor Anjelica Huston; singer songwriter Florence Welch; actor Jodie Turner-Smith and designer Susie Cave.
BOSS The Collection introduces eight fragrances inspired by pieces in the modern man’s wardrobe, including the crisp white shirt and the cashmere sweater.
The collection aims to offer olfactive essentials for every style and occasion and is backed by a campaign featuring German model and photographer Johannes Huebl.
With yellow notes of citrus, Vigorous Cologne is The Collection’s response to the classic white shirt. Its citrus structure is amplified by a woody patchouli fibre to offer body and character, with “a jolt of clean, invigorating freshness”.
Energetic Fougère takes inspiration from the travel suit, “like a fabric that never wrinkles”. Artemisia offers aromatic freshness to the fougère structure with a base of creamy sandalwood.
Magnetic Musk features warm musk and sandalwood accords while Elegant Vetiver carries notes of pistachio.
Noble Wood has notes of oakwood and vintage whisky to emulate a cashmere sweater and Daring Saffiano explores the contrast of urban tailored leather with grain and rose geranium leaf.
Bold Incense blends frankincense with plum while Confident Oud completes BOSS The Collection. Each bottle is presented in a 100ml format and will be available on-counter in travel retail in Asia Pacific and Europe from 1 April. A release date for the Americas is to be confirmed.
