Today we’re loving Elizabeth Arden Red Door 25

 

One of the most iconic fragrances in the world turned 25 last month – yep, Red Door has been around for a quarter of a century!

Of course, they wouldn’t dare have an achievement like this without doing something special to celebrate. That something special comes to us in the form of a limited edition version of the original scent. And what makes this creation so special is that it has been developed by one of the perfume’s original creators, Master Perfumer Carlos Benaïm!

“When I created Red Door in 1989, I knew it was a very special moment,” says Benaïm. “Twenty-five years later, I wanted to reinterpret the timeless classic of Red Door with a new story. A story of a woman’s natural evolution, acknowledging her core essence while celebrating the parts which are new.”

Sensuous, bold and feminine, Red Door 25 is a unique and unexpected floral bouquet. It opens with a cocktail of juicy blackcurrant nectar, violet leaf absolute and natural rose water that is crafted around an exclusive blend of rose extracts. The signature golden honey notes are wrapped in musk and patchouli, resulting in a truly sophisticated and luxurious fragrance with a modern edge.

The Red Door 25 celebration limited edition is available at all Elizabeth Arden counters and is comes in a beautiful 100ml EDP bottle for R595.
