Shanghai 1930

SHANGHAI THE MYSTERIOUS,

SHANGHAI THE ROMANTIC,

SHANGHAI THE INSCRUTABLE;

AND, ABOVE ALL ELSE, SHANGHAI THE IMPROBABLE.

IN THE EARLY 30’S SHANGHAI WAS A CITY LIKE NO OTHER.

A MELTING POT OF CULTURES, ETHNICITIES, INDIVIDUALS, POLITICS. BRITISH SPIES, SOVIET AGENTS, RICH TYCOONS, JOURNALISTS, REVOLUTIONARIES AND INTELLECTUALS.

SHANGHAI IN THE 30’S WAS AN EXTRAORDINARY CITY AT AN UNUSUAL TIME.

A powerful and distinctive floral oriental fragrance with deep, heady and suave notes.

The top note is characterized by a fresh green earl grey tea accord which marries perfectly with the narcotic elegant tuberose having itself a sweet oriental dry down.

The background is mystical and somehow fine powdery with typical oriental ingredients, supported by an elegant musky accord which gives the scent a long lasting character and sensuality.
