Anya's Garden launch Royal Lotus perfume

Anya's Garden's latest limited edition fragrance, Royal Lotus will be available from her website until October 15, 2011. In addition, a free sample of Royal Lotus will be included with an order of Anya’s 10-perfume sample set, also on sale for $60.

Anya McCoy, founder and perfumer of Anya's Garden says:

Royal Lotus perfume is a 21st Century-specific design, containing only one wildcard from the 20th Century [Clementine from the USA]. I realized as I was making modifications on the blue and pink lotuses, that several of my aromatics had royal names associated with them, so I changed the name from Purple Lotus to Royal Lotus. It is a sweet and beguiling perfume, with a citrus cocktail opening that evolves into a slightly smoky rich and luxurious floral. The smoke dissipates, and a seamless floral extravaganza unfolds for hours. The sandalwood, tonka and ambergris base is lush and smooth, like the feel of a royal silken garment.

A slight spray of this unctuous perfume in your hair will reward you with at least 24 hours of floral and coumarinic, sandalwoody pleasure.
