The fragrance opens with crisp vivacity complemented with calming lavender notes. Mandarin essence tempers the citrus notes and blends with the subtle sweetness of fruity notes from honeydew melon.<\/p>\n<p>Crisp notes of geranium accompany pineapple leaf resulting in a vibrant scent that blends harmoniously on the skin.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, the heady ardour of rare patchouli dispenses its quintessentially moody and seductive temperament, transporting the senses to another world in which an orchestra of base notes and harmonies of warm, amber-based wood are blended to form a signature fragrance that is distinctive and alluring.<\/p>\n<p>The perfumer, Anne Flipo of IFF says &#8220;We used the finest part of the patchouli for the most sophisticated of signature fragrances.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Key Ingredients<\/p>\n<p>Top: lavender<br \/>\nHeart: pineapple leaf<br \/>\nBase: patchouli<\/p>\n<p><strong>THE BOTTLE<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The bottle was inspired by an antique hip flask, representing traditional design imbued with an edge of rock n\u2019 roll rebellion. Cool metallic chrome combines with sultry shades of grey. The architectural shape of the bottle feels innately masculine with strong, clean lines and minimal detailing.<\/p>\n<p>The unique, sleek, curved shape reflects originality. Lacquered and elegant, the smoked glass of the bottle imbues the fragrance with a sense of mystery. Referencing a Jimmy Choo signature, the cap is presented in embossed leather adding a luxurious and tactile detail to the fragrance contrasting with the coolness of the chrome hardware.<\/p>\n<p>The sophisticated case is enhanced with a raised, trompe-l&#8217;oeil design of embossed crocodile skin in a blend of contrasting colours, like a metal sculpture. The Jimmy Choo MAN label is displayed in hues of black with a chrome finish.<br \/>\n<strong>THE ADVERTISING<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Jimmy Choo has cast British actor, Kit Harington as the face of their Autumn Winter 2014 campaign.<\/p>\n<p>Shot by the acclaimed photographer, Peter Lindbergh, the images capture Kit\u2019s cool attitude and alluringly moody masculinity, through the play of subtle light in an ultra-sexy campaign.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cKit perfectly embodies the Jimmy Choo Man. He has a natural and alluring masculinity and an effortless sense of style. His cool attitude and smouldering sensuality belie a true British gentleman.\u201d<br \/>\nSandra Choi &#8211; Creative Director, Jimmy Choo.<\/p>\n<p><strong style=\"font-weight: bold !important;\">Check\u00a0<a style=\"font-weight: inherit; font-style: inherit; color: #3495c6;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\" target=\"_blank\">Duty Free Hunter<\/a>\u00a0for the duty-free and luxury shopping locations along the whole route of your next journey.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/JIMMY-CHOO-MAN-50-ML-BOTTLE.png\"><img data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/JIMMY-CHOO-MAN-50-ML-BOTTLE-584x1024.png 584w, https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/JIMMY-CHOO-MAN-50-ML-BOTTLE-171x300.png 171w, https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/JIMMY-CHOO-MAN-50-ML-BOTTLE.png 800w\" decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/JIMMY-CHOO-MAN-50-ML-BOTTLE-584x1024.png\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-1221 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" alt=\"JIMMY CHOO MAN 50 ML BOTTLE\"    sizes=\"(max-width: 584px) 100vw, 584px\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-1221\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/JIMMY-CHOO-MAN-50-ML-BOTTLE-584x1024.png\" alt=\"JIMMY CHOO MAN 50 ML BOTTLE\" width=\"584\" height=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/JIMMY-CHOO-MAN-50-ML-BOTTLE-584x1024.png 584w, https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/JIMMY-CHOO-MAN-50-ML-BOTTLE-171x300.png 171w, https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/JIMMY-CHOO-MAN-50-ML-BOTTLE.png 800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 584px) 100vw, 584px\" \/><\/noscript><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Expanding the lifestyle offering Jimmy Choo unveils its inaugural fragrance, Jimmy Choo MAN.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":1220,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[54,69,56,42],"class_list":["post-1218","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-latest-news","tag-designer","tag-duty-free","tag-fragrance","tag-shopping"],"acf":[],"amp_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1218","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1218"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1218\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1220"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1218"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1218"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1218"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
