Kenneth Cole For Him + Kenneth Cole For Her
Introducing The New Customizable Fragrance Collection for the Modern Individual
NEW YORK, Feb. 2, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- For the first time in fifteen years Kenneth Cole is launching a new fragrance Masterbrand, Kenneth Cole for Him and Kenneth Cole for Her. The newly introduced collection marks the brand's first customizable fragrance collection, offering the consumer the ability to create their own signature scent with "foolproof" layering options. The new pillar celebrates the individuals, those that are present, self aware and ready for new experiences. They are: "The Here, The Now, The Ready" - to be as expressive as they desire.
"I believe that everyone is their own brand. Personal style is defining and this unique selection of fragrances provides yet another opportunity for one to further express their individuality," said Kenneth Cole, Chairman and Chief Creative Officer at Kenneth Cole Productions, Inc.
KENNETH COLE FOR HIM
An icon for a new breed of modern man
A Woody Marine, Kenneth Cole for Him is a vibrant fragrance with a magnetic contrast of energizing, salty and citrusy top notes and a base of sensual amber.
TOP NOTES: Mineral Accord, Sea Salt, White Citrus
MID NOTES: Translucent Jasmine, Ginger
BASE NOTES: Modern Woods, White Amber
"Kenneth Cole for Him captures a deep essence of the brand and creates a very special fragrance. A clean and edgy style embodied by a contrasted and graphic scent based on an enticing Mineral Accord. Inspired by the urban and high-tech streets of New York, a city of endless possibilities… Rock 'n roll woods melt with authentic saltiness and translucent Jasmine to provide this biting clarity, an innovative addiction to embrace. This note is an infinite and minimalist blueprint of free minds," said Philippe Romano, Perfumer at Drom.
KENNETH COLE FOR HER
A non-traditional statement with an edge
A Floral Musk, Kenneth Cole for Her is a dynamic yet sophisticated fragrance that blends notes of vibrant, translucent Florals and invigorating Citrus with enchanting notes of Sandalwood and Musk. The result is a fragrance that does not follow traditional structures or paths, just like the woman who wears it.
TOP NOTES: Pink Peonies, Lemon, Translucent Florals
MID NOTES: Jasmine, Violet, Lily-of-the-Valley
BASE NOTES: Sandalwood, Heliotrope, Skin Musks
"The scent is inspired by the Kenneth Cole woman who would wear this fragrance, traditional with an edge. The fragrance is designed in a linear structure with contrasts to obtain a "rock 'n roll edge." The signature is centered around musk providing this effortless, easy comfort that is extremely wearable and pumped throughout the fragrance in a non-traditional way. The edge comes from this unique duo of Carrot Seed and Ambrette, providing a touch of warmth to increase the mellow expression. Beautiful fluid Florals envelop the Musk in a stunning contrast. The finished composition has a cool factor that is very addictive," said Nicole Mancini, Senior Perfumer at Givaudan.
THE KENNETH COLE PERSONALIZATION FRAGRANCES
