Dubai, August 30, 2015: For the designer Ángel Schlesser, a tireless adventurer, oriental countries are a special destination. This is not only because he travels to them year after year, looking for inspiration for his collections, but also because their landscape, their people and their culture touched the depths of his soul and created close ties of mutual seduction.

Seeking peace, harmony and an oasis of calm to work on his designs, the creator found his place in the Orient.

In 2006, Idesa Parfums and Ángel Schlesser created the first fragrance inspired by the magic of oriental landscapes, Ángel Schlesser Homme Oriental Edition, followed by Ángel Schlesser Oriental Edition II, a unisex fragrance, in 2009. In 2010, due to the success of the previous two fragrances, Ángel Schlesser Oriental Dream was born; a fragrance that enhanced the richness of ingredients that have been used for the preparation of oriental essences since ancient times, such as sandalwood and amber.

Now, we present Ángel Schlesser Oriental Soul; two new fragrances that pay tribute to the designer's passion for the Orient. With these fragrances, Schlesser and Idesa Parfums wanted to capture the splendour of the Oriental soul through two materials which symbolise luxury in their cultural tradition: gold and silver.

Oriental Soul Eau de Toilette pour Femme is the women’s version of the new fragrance; and Oriental Soul Eau de Toilette pour Homme, the men’s fragrance.

GOLD AND SILVER TREASURES.

A symbiosis between the elegantly simple and sleek lines of Ángel Schlesser's style and the most sophisticated oriental luxury shape the two versions of the packaging, which play with gold and silver, as materials of great value, to represent the splendour and richness of oriental culture.

In the women’s version of the fragrance, the intense notes of the fragrance fit perfectly with the luxurious and refined design of the packaging and bottle.

The packaging is a tall and slender rectangular metallic box in matt gold. At the bottom, within a black frame, the logo and the name of the fragrance are highlighted in bright gold letters.

The bottle keeps the same rectangular shape, but is more stylized. Made from frosted golden glass, the elegant gold letters are framed in black on the lower part of the bottle. The cap is cylindrical, black on top with a transparent base, making the spray applicator, which is also gold, visible.

With a similar design, the packaging is slim and light, bringing black and silver into play as symbols of masculinity.

The packaging, a rectangular box in matt black, assumes a purely minimalistic design, thanks to the strength of the black, which refines its angles and perfect proportions. Near the base, framed within a silver rectangle, are the designer's logo and the name of the fragrance in black lettering.

The bottle, in glazed black glass, looks lavish and refined, with all the magic of the Orient emanating from the light reflected in its angles. At the bottom of the bottle, the logo and the name of the fragrance are written in black, within a silver frame. The cap, as with the women’s version, is black on top and transparent at the bottom, making the spray applicator visible, which, this time, is silver.

Two beautiful, sophisticated and elegant objects that preserve the essence of the mysterious luxury of the Eastern tradition. 
 
ORIENTAL BEAUTY.  THE FRAGRANCE.

The two new fragrances pay tribute to the Orient, through their complex and sophisticated compositions.

The women’s fragrance, compelling through its luxury and refinement, emphasises vanilla as the indisputable star of its ingredients. 

It belongs to the olfactory family Gourdmand, Fruity.

In its top notes, the fragrance can be felt through the fruity sweetness of peach, and the innocent and fragrant freesia; a sweet harmony which contrasts with the bubbling energy of tangerine citrus.

In the middle notes, the jasmine scent of Eastern gardens and the hawthorn flower can be felt through their intense white notes, which round off the scents of the fragrant and sunny heliotrope flower, or garden vanilla.

In its base notes, the scent intensifies its exoticism thanks to the sandalwood, the warm and protective benzoin and sensual musk, all wrapped up in sweet and aromatic vanilla and indulgent praline.

ANGEL SCHLESSER ORIENTAL SOUL Eau de Toilette pour Homme

The men's fragrance evokes the strength and mystery of a man from the Orient, through a universe of scents framed within the Woody, Floral notes. The contrast between the flowers and oriental ingredients creates an original proposal, which is intense and enduring.

In the top notes, the fragrance opens with spicy geranium, which, along with orange blossom and tangerine, creates a fresh, sharp, sparkling chord.

From the middle notes, the scent of rose begins to appear with all its power, intertwined with the velvety aroma of cloves and the bold and exotic patchouli.

In the base notes, the ancient ingredients of oriental culture shine with strong intensity: Sandalwood, amber and musk, wrapped in notes of benzoin essence and oud, the ancient resin of the Agar tree.

The wealth and splendour of oriental civilization. The intense shine of gold, the beautiful work of silverware. The exoticism and the mystery. The warmth and the spiritual meaning of life. The soul of the Orient condensed into two new fragrances: Eau de toilette ANGEL SCHLESSER ORIENTAL SOUL.
