New Fragrances : Chanel, Givenchy and More

It looks to be a busy fall in terms of new fragrances! Chanel is preparing to launch a new fragrance called Chanel No 5 Eau Premiere, which "will incorporate all of No.5's original ingredients--including rose absolute, jasmine, neroli and ylang-ylang--but rebalanced in a lighter, airier formula by Jacques Polge."

Givenchy will follow the recent trend of dipping into the archives by relaunching Eau de Givenchy, Givenchy III, Le De, Monsieur and Eau de Vetyver. L'Interdit will also be a part of this collection.

In other news, we are to anticipate a new launch from Prada called Infusion d'Iris as well as from Marc Jacobs called Modern Gardenia. There will also be a release from Judith Leiber in September. "The eponymous scent, featuring Italian bergamot as well as jasmine and rose notes, was created by Karine Dubreil of Mane and was inspired by Leiber's new fine jewelry line." Tom Ford For Men, Tom Ford Voile de Fleur, Guerlain My Insolence, Dior Midnight Poison, Emporio Armani Diamonds, Emilio Pucci Vivara, Acqua di Parma Colonia Intensa, Monique Lhuillier, Banana Republic Malachite and Cordovan, Jo Malone White Jasmine and Mint, and Thierry Mugler La Part des Anges are among other fragrances to be launched in the fall.
