From Neela Vermiere:
"Contemporary India.
This joyful creation embodies every aspect of the very modern, colorful, eclectic, esoteric, ecstatic, liberal, happy side of buzzing India, a world economic power, where nothing is to be taken for granted, where the underbelly of the big city combines with the glitter of Bollywood on the vast sandy stretches of Juhu Beach and the Queen's Necklace.
Fortunes are made and lost on the Bombay stock exchange and gambling dens of Mumbai.
Abandon yourself to the nightlife as dawn breaks over the city.
There is nothing like it and there will be nothing like it.
Welcome to a vibrant new India."

"As a perfume connoisseur, Neela had a keen awareness of the difference good natural raw materials can make. She began her work with Bertrand Duchafour by giving him free rein to use a costly pallet of attars and resins that would do justice to the sensual splendors of the east-west connections. The result? Several formulas rich with natural oudh, rose and jasmine essentials, real sandalwood and other flowers and spices at concentrations that would frankly be considered ridiculous by commercial standards. You will recognize these superior ingredients - from the first spritz to the lengthy dry-down."
Note: Samples are sold by the 1ml. You may purchase up to 2ml. Samples of 1ml or less will come in a glass vial with a dabber. Samples larger than 1ml will come in small glass spray bottles. All samples will be consolidated unless expressly requested otherwise.
