The perfect scent has arrived for all of us Champagne lovers.  Fresh's new Citron de Vigne is a unisex fragrance inspired by France's Champagne region.

The scent is a crisp, sparkling, sensual blend... with an innovative heart note of pinot noir accord - comprised of bergamot, dark almond, musk, white sandalwood, and rose -  combined with bubbling citrus top notes and an earthy base.

Top Notes: neroli, bitter orange, pink grapefruit

Heart Notes: Fresh's pinot noir accord, jasmine tea leaves, lemongrass

Base Notes: patchouli, sandalwood, amber

It's available so far in the eau de parfum ($75), candle ($48) and soap ($14).

Fresh's candles are great because they come with a cover to keep the dust out and burn for about 50 hours!  So it's an expensive candle, but actually less than $1/hour... not bad when you think of that way.

There's a nice article in Vantiy Fair about Fresh co-founder, Alina Roytberg's trip to Veuve Clicquot in 2006 that inspired this fragrance line.

While we're on the topic of Veuve Clicquot... they happen to have a fabulous limited edition gift set of La Grande Dame Vintage 1998.  The bottle comes in gorgeous black lacquer and mahogany box with chrome and leather detailing.  The box is made by the famous Italian boat maker, Riva. The box is beautiful, definitely someting you'd keep long after the Champagne is gone. Sherry Lehman has it here in the city on sale right now for $149.95, regular $165. Veuve_Riva.jpg
