Today we have decided to talk about one of the
perfumes that have lasted over time. We are talking about a fragrance that we
all know, at least by its name. An iconic fragrance throughout the history of
feminine perfumery, which will continue being a sales success in every store in
the world. We are speaking about “Agua de Rosas” by Adolfo Domínguez.
A bit about this great author’s life.
Adolfo Domínguez, born in 1950 in a village in
Ourense. He was a student of art and cinema in Paris during his youth. He
opened in 1976 his first store, representing the collection that would take him
to the dashing.
Adolfo Domínguez did not release his first perfume
until 1990, under the name of "Agua Fresca". It had a great success
all around Spain in several occasions. His first perfume made him become the
first designer of Spain to release a fragrance with his own name. Some years
later “Agua Fresca de Rosas” made its appearance. Elaborated with rose petals,
lily of the valley and jasmine among other olfactory notes. Nowadays it’s still the most
sold perfume in Spain.
Concerning the perfume
It is a fragrance that belongs to the floral olfactory
family. It is a fresh, young and natural fragrance full of life. Its essence of
rose petals has such a watery freshness of dew, so suggestive ... hidden in
spicy fruit nuances that sweetly conjugate with the velvety seduction of musk.
Its Head Notes are fresh, fruity and watery; floral
Heart Notes; and woody and bit intense amber Base Notes. This perfume has
everything to remain, today, a success in sales and the first choice for
thousands of women in the world who do not want to change to another scent.
Who hides behind these smells? The cause of success is
Joan Bruses, who drew the olfactory silhouette of this toilet water. Its Top
Notes are grapefruit, bergamot and mandarin. These are fused with a floral
bouguet of the lily of the valley in its Middle Notes, including the presence
of lilac and jasmine. These last two adorn its subtle form, the elegant aroma
of the Bulgarian rose. Its Base Notes are composed of sandalwood, oak moss, and
amber, achieving absolute seduction.
Its 20th anniversary
The year 2015 witnessed the 20th birthday of the
fragrance. Therefore, they had to celebrate it in the most emotive, incredible
and visual possible way.
The subway station of Callao (Madrid) was filled with
colors and flowers, creating a beautiful artificial garden. All the intention
was to create an aura of wisdom and elegance. The decoration had to express all
the keys of femininity through a fragrance so fresh, delicate and floral.
People’s opinion
Some people say that we have to face modern times: if
we do not update ourselves we will die in a world too advanced for us. However,
there are customs that can not be left behind. There are products that, today,
have the same or more prominence than in the beginning. But this only happens
if we know how to keep them in time, facing any challenge or difficulty.
Agua de Rosas is a product that has not gone out of
fashion; there are still people who trust in its power, in its attractiveness
and all the potential it has. There are products that do not lose their
essence, and this is one of them.
