Batucada
Description
Batucada opens with sparkling and sunny notes of lime and mint shaken with a cachaça (Brazilian spirits obtained from fermented sugar-cane juice) accord. The white-flower heart develops a sweet dimension and brings the fragrance some depth. The scent also reveals spicy, woody and sea-breeze facets, along with a ‘coconut water’ note. Perfumers: Karine Vinchon Spehner and Elisabeth Maier.

A festive and citrusy stopover in Brazil
History
L’Artisan Parfumeur makes a stopover in Brazil with Batucada (‘beat’ in Brazilian), a sparklingly festive fragrance. A four-handed composition made by a French perfumer, Karine Vinchon Spehner, in collaboration with a Brazilian one, Elisabeth Maier, Batucada expresses the most emblematic facets of Brazil: the frenetic rhythms of the samba and the local cocktail, caipirinha, as well as the stunning, sun-drenched landscapes. ‘Vibrant, joyful and sensual… the effervescence and rhythm of Rio’ in a fragrance for him or her.
Range
Eau de Toilette 1.7 and 3.4 oz.
Bottle
The house’s signature bottle is graced with a yellow and green label that calls a Brazilian sunrise to mind.

I love the signature bottle. Really love it. This is one of more interesting scents from L'Artisan Parfumeur that I've got to try.

Bien présent, il ne tiendra néanmoins pas toute la journée et il faudra renouveler son sillage à mi-journée pour tenir jusqu'au soir... ;-)

Enlevé, joyeux, dynamisant, complexe... euphorisant presque... absolument féminin... rigoureusement masculin... à partager à même la peau pour deux coeurs qui battent à l'unisson...
