Christian Siriano

Silhouette

Silhouette by Christian Siriano is a Oriental Floral fragrance for women. Silhouette was launched in 2014. The nose behind this fragrance is Christelle Laprade. Top notes are Black Currant, Mandarin Orange, Green Apple, Grapefruit and Green Notes; middle notes are Jasmine, Freesia and Rose; base notes are Tonka Bean, Amber, Musk, Siam Benzoin, Ambrette (Musk Mallow) and Oakmoss. Christian Siriano, the young American fashion designer, presents his first perfume called Silhouette in early September 2014. “Fragrance is an item that lasts a really long time, and I wanted it to be something that was signature to my brand and my world that could last 50 years. We’re about dressing all types of women, and I wanted the fragrance to feel the same way. Even down to the name, Silhouette, we wanted it to feel like it could be for every woman—she can be any size, any age, any shape, and it’s all about celebrating the silhouette of a woman,” said the designer to InStyle magazine. The composition is elegant and sophisticated, made from notes of grapefruit, black currant, green apple, freesia, purple berries, green and woody tones and oak moss. “Things I thought would smell good together sometimes didn’t, but the things I thought were unrelated–like oakmoss and grapefruit—ended up working really well.” The unusual shape of the bottle is inspired by evening dresses, twisted and pleated. The base of the bottle is colored in rose gold, and the cap is transparent and layered. The face of the advertising campaign is supermodel Coco Rocha.
