The floral/fruity notes of Coach pour Femme
According to Stuart Vevers, the brand's artistic director, Coach pour Femme is a perfume that represents Coach's freedom of spirit. It is a unique, authentic and cool essence. Coach pour Femme opens on the fruity notes of raspberry. Legend has it that the raspberry was originally a white fruit. The nymph Ida, nurse to Zeus, wanted to pick a raspberry to soothe him. She pricked her breast on a thorn and the raspberry took on a blood-red hue. Commercial cultivation of the raspberry began in 1950. Today, raspberry is one of the favorite fruits of the French. Both sweet and sparkling, raspberry blends easily into many desserts. In perfumery, raspberry is reproduced synthetically, giving off fruity, juicy and very sweet tonalities. Then, the heart of Coach pour Femme is highly feminine, built on Turkish rose paired with cyclamen and gardenia. Finally, the base is sensual and elegant, combining white musks and sandalwood.
