Plenty of things can trigger our memories, from the familiar taste of a delicious meal to the sound of the ocean, but it’s often our sense of smell that has the ability to instantly take us back.
And who wouldn’t want to go back to a gorgeous hotel stay where we were pampered and living our best lives?
If you’re anything like me, you’ll know the familiar disappointment of asking the concierge what the gorgeous hotel lobby scent is only to be disappointed when you find out it’s a proprietary blend.
However, Bulgari has just revealed some good news for fragrance lovers, as you can now buy a previously exclusive and much-beloved scent –- Eau Parfumée Thé Impérial – to take home with you after a stay
The fragrance is part of Bulgari’s Eau Parfumée collection, which also includes other classics like Eau Parfumée Thé Vert and Eau Parfumée Thé Blanc.
Created by master perfumer Jacques Cavallier, the fragrance is a warm and radiant citrus-musk blend, featuring bergamot, Sri Lankan black tea and mandarin, with soft base notes of white musk. With a sophisticated but earthy twist, it instantly invokes luxurious lobbies and sun-kissed, relaxed days.
Eau Parfumée Thé Impérial can be bought on Bulgari’s website, as well as certain department stores like Space NK and currently comes in two sizes, 75ml and 150ml, with a shower gel and body lotion of the same scent too.
