Under the \u201cartistic residency\u201d of Christopher Chong, Thameen London is proud to announce the release of the third fragrance from The Britologne Collection, titled Bravi<\/em>. Reimagined as Cologne Elixir with more faceted nuances layering over the classical structure of cologne, it evokes memorable sillage and seductive longevity.<\/p>\n Bravi<\/em>\u2019s adventure begins at the opera house, the most iconic building in Covent Garden\u2014a place where love and passion for opera ignite friendships. Chong tells the tale: \u201cI missed going to the opera with my friends during the pandemic. As soon as restrictions were lifted, I organised box seats for the opening of a new production, so I could reunite with friends who shared the same passion. It also happened by chance that a good friend of mine was the diva of the opera. Perfumer Bruno Jovanovic, whom I hadn\u2019t seen for some time, was among the invited.<\/p>\n After the performance, I mentioned to Bruno that it would be wonderful to mark the occasion with a fragrance to remember human attributes we take for granted\u2014trust, friendship, and loyalty.\u201d<\/p>\n After Jovanovic\u2019s melodic interpretation of the Flower Market (now an annex of the opera house) with Fanfare<\/em>, he returns with another olfactory display of bravura: \u201cThe final chapter of the Covent Garden trilogy is all about wannabe divos and a diva. We imagine the idea of creating a Queen of the Night flower fragrance that would be essential to the magic of the performance.\u201d Combined with Chong\u2019s unconventional touch of artistry, the story of Thameen London Limited friends going to the opera is adapted into a pantomime script full of magic and mishaps to colour Jovanovic\u2019s imagination. In tune with the pantomime script, Jovanovic\u2019s lifelong obsession with comic book superheroes becomes an asset to this fragrance development: \u201cWe imagine the opera diva finding herself in a helpless situation.<\/p>\n In order to save the performance and to make it even more extraordinary, we re-create the scent of the Queen of the Night flower, which gives her magical powers. During the olfactory exploration of the Queen of the Night, we take the path of sensuality, but in a dramatic and over-the-top sensational way. The fragrance has to be extremely sexy, perfect for the evening. Intoxicating tuberose is spiced up with an overdose of ginger and dramatised with a novel walnut milk accord. The notes are blended in a way that accentuates the tension between them.\u201d<\/p>\nInspiration from Covent Garden’s Opera House<\/h2>\n
