6 Hours to Rio is Frapin at its best: elegant, refined and full of character. The woody amber creation is by perfumer Julien Rasquinet.
It begins with the radiant opening with the freshness of bergamot, the spiciness of ginger and the juiciness of mandarin. The character of 6 Hours to Rio is both bright, spicy and sensual, through a beautiful build-up of cardamom, rose and musk.
Creamy sandalwood and earthy vetiver, along with modern amberwood, remain long but delicately perceptible on the skin.
The name is a reference to the ultra-fast journey by Concorde, contrasted with the excruciatingly long wait to rejoin your beloved one in your arms.
During the pleasantly decadent journey, aboard the Concorde, Frapin cognac is of course served to passengers.
