For Her Eau de Parfum

Unfortunately, the woman who was his muse died in a tragedy at sea. Narciso Rodriguez, deeply grieved, decided to create a fragrance in her honor, which he simply named For Her.

The femininity of Narciso Rodriguez's fragrance

Narciso Rodriguez here conceived a fragrance in the image of his friend. For Her is a composition with an elegant yet spontaneous silhouette. It draws its inspiration from the crossroads of cultures that marked Narciso Rodriguez's life. It moves from Europe to America and delivers a unique style. It is at once being and appearance, the intimacy of femininity and the explosion of an assertive temperament. Moreover, one should not forget that this is a dedication of love and gratitude. Thus, For Her goes well beyond the classic refinement of perfumes. It pays tribute to feminine grace in general, in all its universality. Its aura is thus particularly powerful, and it resonates on skin like an ode to woman. It is a composition conceived with extreme generosity and intense sensuality. Narciso Rodriguez likes to say of his perfume that this portrait expresses everything that a woman is: strength, vulnerability, beauty, sensuality and finally depth. It is his very personal and romantic vision, he says, of the imaginary muse who inspires him and lets him feel what he feels when he creates.

The floral elegance of For Her

Two renowned perfumers were behind the creation of For Her, namely Christine Nagel and Francis Kurkdjian. Together, they chose to build a chypre and green fragrance. Moreover, they incorporated into it a rare ingredient that held particular significance for Narciso Rodriguez: Egyptian musk in the form of an oil. Indeed, this essence never left the designer, and it was only logical that he made it the source of inspiration for his first perfume. Likewise, while For Her contains musk, it is entirely reimagined. It is paired with the luminosity of orange blossom and osmanthus before being enhanced by a large bouquet of fresh, sun-kissed flowers. The whole proves to be very luminous while remaining amber. For Her is a resolutely abstract and contemporary composition. Nevertheless, its sweetness gradually becomes more enveloping. Vanilla adds a touch of warm, exotic creaminess. The woods, for their part, aim to be tactile and sensual. In this instance, the femininity becomes gradually more vibrant thanks to the presence of vetiver. The whole is contained in a bottle that has become the emblem of the Narciso Rodriguez house. At once refined and highly geometric, it is in fact the result of extraordinary craftsmanship, which even earned Narciso Rodriguez a patent for its interior lacquering.
