In September 2018, Miller Harris London will launch two new eaux de parfum – Powdered Veil and Peau Santal – but they are exclusively available from July 5th to the customers of World Duty Free at UK airports.
Inspired by skin, softness and sensuality, these two new additions to Miller Harris’ Editions range will launch at the turn of the season, when evenings arrive earlier, thoughts turn to cashmere and the leaves begin to fall. In classic Miller Harris style, the fragrances pay homage to some of the noblest materials in perfumery, creating a perfect skin experience for the wearer.
Just as silk caressing a cheek or the back of a hand feels magically cool and warm at the same time, so these perfumes feel both natural and dramatic, intimate and deliciously glamourous.
Powdered Veil
As the name suggests, this is a modern and transparent take on amber, wrapped in a veil of cashmere and florals. The fragrance suggests the instantly evocative scent powder puffs, old compacts and quiet, retro glamour.
Delicately powdery and sweetly resinous, amber is the definitive oriental accord and, in Powdered Veil, it is given a nuanced and translucent air. The sparkling freshness of spicy pink pepper flirts with a twist of rosy geranium. A sensuous orchid accord provides a fragile and haunting floralcy to the heart, combined with transparent florals and the luminous freshness of hedione. A rich and radiant lasting impression of soft powder is created through the combination of amber, vanilla bourbon and musk, where a sensual and animalic vibration of labdanum combines with sandalwood to create intimacy and warmth.
Top notes: Pink Pepper, Rhubarb Touch, Geranium
Heart notes: Transparent florals, Hedione, Orchid
Lasting impressions: Sandalwood New Caledonia, Patchouli, Amber, Labdanum, Vanilla bourbon absolute, Musk, Cashmeran
Peau Santal
The sensation of soft, warm skin evoked by the creamy richness of sandalwood.
Exceptionally smooth and sensual, sandalwood is the most noble of woods, and, in Peau Santal, Miller Harris have enriched every aspect of the material to create the ultimate skin-scent. The fresh and bright elements of the wood are lifted with airy pink pepper and the sweet spice of saffron. Olibanum and papyrus enhance the delicate resinous quality and rich warmth of this precious wood. Cashmere woods, crisp amber and moss create a hint of dry sensuality, whilst a lick of vanilla co2 rounds out the scent, playing to the creamy and slightly carnal quality of sandalwood.
Top notes: Bergamot, Pink Pepper, Saffron
Heart notes: Olibanum, Violet Leaf, Papyrus
Lasting Impressions: Sandalwood, Cashmere woods, Crisp amber, Vanilla CO2 extract, Moss
