After the dog days and with August blues at best, some try to leverage on the energy gained during the holidays to start a new work year. Downtown the tube is populated with tanned faces and smells trying to extend the illusion of sunny beaches. Before temperature falls down though, there will be still time for some weekend off and for a perfumista
Pitti Fragranze is on the to do list of course, scheduled on
September 8-10, to discover what's new to spray on from here to the next summer.

The fifteenth edition brings to Florence various well established events. First of all on
Friday 8 at 11.00 am RAW, the Pitti Fragranze format focusing on the most important raw materials in perfumery:
Mane Italia fine fragrances division director
Michaela Giamberti will speak about
Exotic Spices, essences that are at the core of many creations in perfumery. Later in the afternoon a round table led by the expert
Fabrice Leclerc will focus on a hot topic right now,
Ethics and sustainability in perfumery. Save also the date for the
off-Pitti event with
Olfattorio Inflorescent - Respect for nature at
Polimoda. Here's the
full agenda.

with Sarah McCartney at Fragranze 14 |
Speaking about news we won't be disappointed by interesting launches as the ones which I had a succulent preview by
Antonio Alessandria and
Gabriella Chieffo and the debut of
Francesca Bianchi to the show. Welcome back to Italy also to the most chic florist in Sidney
Saskia Havekes and her brand
Grandiflora launching an interesting
Boronia, and to the amazing
4160 Thuesday founder
Sarah McCartney introducing the new line
Our Modern Lives. Another debut at Pitti on my list is fellow American blogger and vintage collector
Barbara Herman's
Eris Parfums.
I'll be there dispatching first impressions on the most exciting things live through
Instagram,
Facebook and
Twitter, of course followed by the detailed Scent Diary here. I hope we can meet for some chitchat and maybe have the chance to sniff beautiful creations together!
See you soon!
