La Collection d’Ailleurs is the latest chapter in the Evody story. Paying tribute to travel, the richness of nature and the diversity of different cultures, this captivating collection is brand creators Régine and Cérine’s own unique interpretation of far away places, linking their joint passions for travel and fragrance.
Noir d’Orient (from £85 for 50ml extrait de parfum)
The spice route is full of mystery – a trail of intoxicating scents, warmth, luxuriant forests and the depths of the Indian Ocean.
Noir d’Orient has been constructed around India’s olfactory diversity. The fragrance opens with a serene note of incense before revealing a heart of hot, sensual and intense spices including Cloves and Cinnamon. Finally, this heady oriental offers a rich soul of Wood, Dark Rum and Patchouli.
D’Âme de Pique (from £85 for 50ml extrait de parfum)
D’Âme de Pique is an ode to the roses from Rose Valley in the Atlas region of Morocco. Opulent and soft, exuberant and dignified these most regal of flowers are unrivalled in their beauty. Green and sparkling notes of Blackcurrant Leaf and Pear form the opening accord of this most captivating of fragrances. The heart is given up entirely to Rose, magnified by a hint of Raspberry. Finally voluptuous Sandalwood and Vanilla combine with sensual Patchouli.
Ombre Fumée (from £85 for 50ml extrait de parfum)
Drawing inspiration from the volcanic, tropical island of Reunion Ombre Fumée is a celebration of Vetiver, the intense raw material from which Reunion draws its wealth. Here Vetiver is wrapped in both fresh, green notes and mysterious, sensual notes. Invigorating Orange and Lemon give way to a soft touch of Cypress followed by a powdery note of Iris with Hot Black Pepper.
Created by mother and daughter duo, Régine Droin and Cérine Vasseur, EVODY’s distinctive fragrance collection is designed to enthrall perfume aficionados. The core range comprises eight beguiling scents, each designed to communicate the very real stories and emotions that inspired the creators. From the intensely personal Cuir Blanc, designed for Cérine when she was pregnant with her first child, to the sparkling Pomme d’Or created for Régine’s husband, a man who had never previously worn fragrance.
The dominant fragrance notes for the rest of the Evody line are as follows:
POMME D’OR – Bergamot, Sweet Lime, Juniper berries
FLEUR D’ORANGER – Mandarin, Jasmine, Orange Blossom REVE D’ANTHALA – Tiare Flower, Orchid, Jasmine, Vanilla BOIS SECRET – Bergamot, Black Pepper, Nutmeg, Tonka Bean NOTE DE LUXE – Jasmine, Bergamot, Ylang Ylang, Vanilla AMBRE INTENSE – Bay Leaf, Incense, Patchouli, Amber
CUIR BLANC – Violet Leaf, Iris, White Musk, Russian Leather MUSC INTENSE – Bergamot, Mandarin, Kashmir Wood, Musk
Just a thought - all these ranges that are meant to express the idea of travel, and exotic places - they only seem to recognise a few lands, and almost always the same ones, a short flight from western europe. Where's a NZ or Australian inspired one? Argentina? Alaska? (& despite being closer to Europe) - Faroe Islands? What's so exotic about places crowded with tourists?
