Balenciaga Paris EDP by Balenciaga 75ML

Balenciaga Paris was launched in 2010. The nose behind this fragrance is Olivier Polge.

Balenciaga Paris was launched as the first fragrance after starting partnership with Coty, in 2008. Designer of Balenciaga – Nicolas Ghesquiere worked on developing the new fragrance and was meticulous about every detail of Balenciaga Paris edition.

Balenciaga Paris is not a romantic floral fragrance, but created with a dose of the urban and the traditional with nuances of metal effects. Its composition is characterized as a chypre floral with accentuated violet. The effect it leaves is not powdery as it usually does in other compositions, but violet leaves are put in the front plan so the fragrance receives light, fresh and natural nuances. Olivier Polge integrates redistilled wood such as cedar and patchouli. Floral essences are represented by carnation and violet.

Flacon is made of transparent glass body, shaped like beans and decorated with a stopper which reminds of old vases from the 18th century. The designer’s wish was to give character to these fragrance and flacon, so he believed that head, neck and stable body would make appropriate design.
