Ruta comments: “:In the context of thousands new fragrance releases where the main challenge seems to provoke the wearer or simply reformulate something that has already gone before, Encore Une Fois is a perfect proof of the opposite. It’s inspired by love of the earthy, organic smells of the ocean. The scent uses Nature’s most precious oils and absolutes to recreate the salty intimacy of just-loved skin. Encore Une Fois means “one more time” and speaks to the way we are helplessly drawn to the siren call of nature and to each other.”
Encore Une Fois is inspired by Ruta’s love of the rich, organic scent of the ocean and it focuses on the famous grey amber, ambergris, which Art de Parfum has recreated with the ethical and sustainable alternative, ambroxan. Introduced by a fresh, bitter citrus opening, the earthy ambergris scent suffuses the composition with a soft-focus, golden glow. It smells like salt on tanned shoulders after a day at the beach. This freshness is charmingly contrasted with the velvety darkness of the smoky balsams, resins, and patchouli in the base.
Encore Une Fois comes stylishly presented in 50ml glass spheres and is priced at £160 RRP. Encore Une Fois and Art de Parfum’s full range of fragrances are available to purchase online from http://www.artdeparfum.com as well as being available from leading retailers around the world.
