vlgari Reveals First High Perfumery Le Gemme Collection For Men Bvlgari launched Le Gemme Men, a new collection of luxury fragrances in collaboration with the master perfumer, Jacques Cavallier. It is a collection of fragrances directed exclusively to men, from Le Gemme – Bvlgari’s most prestigious fragrance line, which takes its inspiration from precious gemstones – Ambero, Garanat, Gyan, Malakeos, Onekh and Tygar. The collection is exclusive that blends gemstones and fragrances in a fascinating manner.
Indeed, each bottle glistens in gold with a different bottled cap depicting a different gemstone, whether in the intensely magnificent Malachite to the vivaciously virile Tiger’s Eye or the luminous Sapphire to the sensual fiery Red Garnet. The Onyx, of course, leads from the collection in its powerful mystery, raw yet fertile in an enigmatic essence.
Each bottle has a different bottled cap representing a different gemstone. The collection is like an expression of history, with a fascinating new take on masculinity. Inspired by ancient history, the perfumes draw from the imagery of great conquerors and luxury nomads of antiquity as they traversed across the unknown.
Tygar (Ambery citrus): Its inspiration comes from “Tiger’s Eye from India”. Called the stone that sees all, shimmering golden-brown Tiger’s Eye draws its energy from the vibrations of the earth and sun and conveys the fiery courage, action and mental power of the great Indian warrior Shivaji. Crafted from Grapefruit, a hint of profound woods and Ambrox, it catches the duality and the outstanding energies of the tiger’s eye.
Garanat (French oriental): Its inspiration comes from “Red Garnet from Bosphorus”. A name conveying masculine strength. This crimson gemstone shines in the darkness, bringing its wearer the impassioned courage and vision of Suleyman the Magnificent, the most seducing Sultan of the Ottoman Empire. Curls of roses and intoxicating incense chiaroscuro create a warm, surprising and fascinating fragrance with great masculine strength.
Onekh (Oriental Oud): Inspired by “Black Onyx from Middle East”. A black gemstone of powerful energy reserved for the strong-spirited. It derives its mystery from Naram, the first Mesopotamian king, and god of the moon. Leathery, animal and spicy, this natural Oud yields a dry yet sensually addictive quality when allied with Labdanum and warm ambery Resin.
Malakeos (Fougère musk): Inspired by “Malachite from the Ural”. The infinite green of Malachite gemstone exudes the healing and well-being of nature, set in the profuse coniferous green of the Ural forests. This deeply invigorating scent has a cold, clean, vegetal freshness derived from men’s barbering classics. Minty Geranium, Lavender, and Oakmoss are vividly paired with gentle Musk and Guaiac Wood for an immensely restoring, sensual green fragrance.
Gyan (Woody oriental): Inspired by “Blue sapphire from Kashmir”. A name in Sanskrit, meaning “divine wisdom”, GYAN evokes velvety blue Sapphires imbued with the spirituality of the midnight sky in the Himalayas and the seductiveness, lucidity and insight of Alexander the Great. The celestial blue mystery of Sapphire is expressed by a nocturnal starlit Jasmine Sambac and a near limitless abundance of Indonesian Patchouli. Mingled with Oriental incense, this aristocratic and masculine fragrance possesses an incomparably sophisticated trail.
Ambero (Woody oriental): Inspired by “Amber from shores of the Mediterranean Levant”. The glow of Kahraman Amber is the most ancient, natural treasure of the Mediterranean Levant. The scent is a tribute to the Phoenician god, Melkart, an epitome of masculinity revered from Levant to Spain, who carried a shield made of Amber as a symbol of power. A warm Woody Oriental that translates the richness and sensuality of Amber into noble, earthy, generously composed of its most fragrant portion. Modernized with spice of Ginger, Pink Pepper and Saffron, and refined with elegant Olibanum incense, AMBERO is startlingly luminous and round.
