New Perfumes: Tropiques by Lancôme, Fahrenheit Summer 2006, Armani Mania Summer (2006)

• Tropiques is the first perfume in a new collection called "Collection Voyage" (Travel Collection) designed by Lancôme. The perfume will be exclusively distributed in duty-free stores.

Tropiques edt 2006 is based on the original Tropiques created by Armand Petitjean in 1935. The original fragrance was part of a selection of five perfumes presented at the Brussels Exhibition that year to mark the debut of the Lancôme brand. The 2006 version is not a re-edition, but rather a re-interpretation of the classic scent.

Tropiques is a fruity-floral. Top notes are cranberry, raspberry, and kumquat. Heart notes are mango, jasmine, blackberry. Base notes are Tonka bean and vanilla.

• Fahrenheit Summer 2006 is now available in Europe. Price is 36 Euros for 100 ml.
