Roadster Sport

Description

There is little in common here with the original scent: the mint, vanilla and ambry woods have yielded to a more classically constructed cologne or fresh eau. The dazzling lemon opening evolves into a more aromatic heart: sage and rosemary, plus there may still be just a pinch of mint, even though the house has not listed it). The woody base is soft and slightly ambry-musky. The overall impression is citrusy with green, woody and clean accents. Perfumer: Mathilde Laurent.

History

Fresh and luminous, Roadster Sport is a bracing and ‘casual chic’ flanker for the Roadster fragrance, which was composed by perfumer Mathilde Laurent in 2008. This new scent is riding the Sport wave that has been in vogue lately in the world of fragrance. Considerably fresher than the original fragrance, Roadster Sport reveals a citrus-woody construction with a refreshing green hue.

Bottle

You’ll recognize Roadster’s chunky glass and metal bottle. For this Sport version, the bottle is accented with a streak of red, and the juice had gone light green.
