Astrophil & Stella Shanghai 1930 extrait de parfum
SHANGHAI THE MYSTERIOUS,
SHANGHAI THE ROMANTIC,
SHANGHAI THE INSCRUTABLE;
AND, ABOVE ALL ELSE, SHANGHAI THE IMPROBABLE.
IN THE EARLY 30’S SHANGHAI WAS A CITY LIKE NO OTHER.
A MELTING POT OF CULTURES, ETHNICITIES, INDIVIDUALS, POLITICS. BRITISH SPIES, SOVIET AGENTS, RICH TYCOONS, JOURNALISTS, REVOLUTIONARIES AND INTELLECTUALS.
SHANGHAI IN THE 30’S WAS AN EXTRAORDINARY CITY AT AN UNUSUAL TIME.
A powerful and distinctive floral oriental fragrance with deep, heady and suave notes.
The top note is characterized by a fresh green earl grey tea accord which marries perfectly with the narcotic elegant tuberose having itself a sweet oriental dry down.
The background is mystical and somehow fine powdery with typical oriental ingredients, supported by an elegant musky accord which gives the scent a long lasting character and sensuality.
