John Varvatos Men's Fragrance Collection Launch

Check out Amber Chia our Malaysian Top Super Model posing with the latest John Varvatos at the launch a while ago!

Will Quah was the MC of the day. He introduced that John Varvatos is a brand that occupies a unique place in the landscape of American design. It unites old world craftsmanship and refined tailoring with modern innovations in textiles and a rock ‘n’ roll sensibility. Launched in 2000 with a collection of tailored clothing and sportswear, the brand now represents an entire lifestyle that includes belts, bags, footwear, eyewear, limited edition watches, luxury skincare and fragrances, as well as the younger, edgier John Varvatos USA collection and Converse by John Varvatos. And recently Prestige Malaysia has bring this into our market, if I'm not mistaken Malaysia is the first few Asian countries that introduced this fragrance to the market.

Rodrigo Flores-Roux (Senior Perfumer, Givaudan) who partnered with John Varvatos to create this signature scent of John Varvatos ARTISAN and John Varvatos ARTISAN BLACK described this fragrance collection is an evolving, interesting and always creates a lasting impression. He said words like rich, contemporary, masculine, modern, assertive and elegantly relaxed come to his mind. These words, of course, also describe the many attributes of the John Varvatos man, not only his fragrances. Ingredient wise, there is a common thread of rich and modern woody notes. They are warm and spicy with a comfortable sensuality provided by fruit and amber notes.

Besides the scent, John Varvatos fragrance has an unique bottle design.

Personally I really like John Varvatos Artisan & Artisan Black packaging & scent!

The ARTISAN bottle was inspired by the clean lines and casual elegance of a traditional flask. Its profile echoes the contemporary silhouette of the John Varvatos Collection fragrances but, as with all John Varvatos fragrances for men, different textures create a striking new design. Handwoven rattan in a rich caramel color encases the flask, giving each bottle its own eclectic character. The metal cap with an antique blackened finish features a debossed logo. The result is an unmistakable sense of crafted luxury that exudes its own unique charm.
