New From Clarins: Eau des Jardins!!! Uplifts, Refreshes, Captivates, and is Recommended by Whom You Know! Get excited for September, when it debuts!

It is officially midweek in Manhattan and if you can feel the stress and excitement infiltrating your being, you know you are in the city that never sleeps, and you know you need a bit of relief, preferably from Clarins, one of our favorites.  This new treatment fragrance from Clarins is inspired by the heightened senses of a walk through a lush garden, which is an infrequent experience here in the city...so we love the British Garden parties: http://www.whomyouknow.com/2010/07/nightlight-summer-garden-party-for.html. Not every night brings a lovely garden party however, and we are guessing you might be trapped at work right now and need a garden party in a bottle.  Here it is!  Like all Clarins Treatment fragrances, Eau des Jardins combines plant fragrances and skin care benefits using aromatherapy and phytotherapy techniques. More than 10 essential oils and 3 bud extracts have been chosen to recreate the colors and delicate scents of fruit, flowers, leaves and wood.    Spray some on and you might forget you are even here!


Push back the garden gate of your imagination and breath in a sparkling burst of fruity notes from citrus, orange and grapefruit of your Florida estate. Continue along the path and take in the scent of crushed leaves with their refreshing green note, inspired by a country meadow in Connecticut. A gentle breeze of fragrant wild rose fills the air with understated femininity, while towards the edge of the garden lies a woody patch of vetiver, patchouli and cedarwood. 


More than a fragrance, Eau des Jardins is also the result of Clarins skin care expertise and delivers skin care benefits thanks to the use of bud, widely acknowledged as being the most powerful and highly concentrated form of a plant extract. For the first time, a Clarins fragrance is formulated using three bud extracts – beech extract to improve skin’s hydration, sorbier bud that helps maintain radiance and blackcurrant bud that soothes and comforts with antioxidant benefits.
