Shanghai 1930

  Shanghai 1930 by Astrophil & Stella Unexpected Encounters   Shanghai the Mysterious, Shanghai the Romantic, Shanghai the Inscrutable. And, above all else, Shanghai the improbable. In the early 30’s Shanghai was a city like no other. A melting pot of cultures, ethnicities, individuals, politics. British spies, Soviet agents, rich tycoons, journalists, revolutionaries and intellectuals. Shanghai in the 30’s was an extraordinary city at an unusual time. A powerful and distinctive floral oriental fragrance with deep, heady and suave notes. The top note is characterized by a fresh green earl grey tea accord which marries perfectly with the narcotic elegant tuberose having itself a sweet oriental dry down. The background is mystical and somehow fine powdery with typical oriental ingredients, supported by an elegant musky accord which gives the scent a long lasting character and sensuality.   Top notes: Bergamot, Green Tea, Plum, Mango, Cinnamon, Violet Leaves Heart notes: Tuberose, Champaca, Jasmin sambac, Magnolia, Ylang ylang, Orchid Base notes: Sandalwood, Myrrh, White musk, Tonka, Vanilla   50 ml.
