Olympéa Blossom: The new floral Eau de Parfum by Paco Rabanne It was in 1965 that Paco Rabanne decided to venture into the world of haute couture, after training as an architect. Endowed with a highly visionary spirit, he did not hesitate to repurpose surprising materials to craft unexpected garments.
Olympéa is a fragrance born in 2015, imagining the story of a new heroine. Conceived as a feminine fantasy, it offers us the image of a contemporary goddess, as if drawn straight from mythology yet facing a radiant future. An undisputed best-seller of the Paco Rabanne house, Olympéa has already been reinvented on several occasions. Once again, at the start of 2021, it returns to the forefront and delivers a new chapter of its saga. This time, it is called Olympéa Blossom and is characterized by a spicy, floral and fruity breath. But what about its bottle?
Olympéa Blossom, a timeless bottle
Olympéa Blossom comes in a bottle to which no one could truly assign an age or an era. Indeed, while its bottle is very contemporary, it is also directly inspired by mythology. It thus possesses several attributes usually associated with that era. First, it is encircled by a golden crown. Now, this evokes the laurels of victory once offered to victorious athletes. The rest of this container forms a kind of amphora. One might almost believe that this bottle comes straight from Olympus. What do they contain? Is it a divine nectar carried by a goddess? To find out, it is up to you to remove its little cap! Let us note, however, that this shape is far from new. Indeed, Olympéa Blossom preserves the silhouette of its predecessors and keeps the same look as the entire Olympéa collection.
The new golden attributes of Paco Rabanne’s bottle
For the very first time, a few golden elements appear on Paco Rabanne’s bottle. Olympéa Blossom features a golden crown encircling its rounded container. Likewise, it is in luminous lettering that its name is also inscribed. Finally, this bottle is topped with a small half-sphere-shaped cap, whose neck is golden, while being contrasted by a black, opaque and shimmering top. Olympéa Blossom clearly plays the refinement card. Paco Rabanne’s goddess this time takes us into an infinitely luxurious world.
The highly floral and feminine spirit of Olympéa Blossom
Of course, as always, Paco Rabanne also strives to preserve a perfect coherence between its bottle and the fragrance it contains. And this is precisely what is also found on the bottle of Olympéa Blossom. To echo its femininity, while recalling its predecessors, it is enhanced with a pale pink hue. Romantic and feminine as can be, it is also accompanied by a few flowers drawn on its walls. Thus, from the very sight of this bottle, Paco Rabanne suggests to us that this is a highly floral fragrance. Olympéa Blossom thus leads us into a lush garden.
