Still Life In Rio ($194 for 3.4 oz; barneys.com) is Olfactive Studio’s newest launch, a very unique, exotic fragrance with notes of yuzu, ginger, mint, lemon, mandarin, jamaican hot peppers, pink & black pepper, coconut water, rum and accord of white leather. Its a gorgeous summer fragrance that is light, fresh and perfect for a warm, breezy day. The opening is very zesty with a touch of the spiciness from the ginger. The mandarin and mint blend in beautifully, while the coconut comes out when the fragrance settles down a little bit onto the skin. The coconut adds a lot of creaminess to the fragrance and its a very strong note that you just can’t miss. The pepper and leather form the base notes, but they’re very subtle to me, making this a perfect summer fragrance. The longevity is fantastic - I get about 10 hours after which it starts to fade slowly. I love the minimalistic packaging and the fragrance is a very unique composition to try if you are looking for one that you could wear all through the summer!
