Here's something hardcore fashion for the hardcore fashion lover in your life who's looking for something chic, elite, pretty obscure, and dead cool. Meet M by Ohne Titel, one of the fragrances produced for the third of the "Six Scents" limited-edition scent series.
"M was a collaborative project with Ohne Titel," says Yann Vasnier, the perfumer who worked with design duo Flora Gill and Alexa Adams on the project. "Meeting Flora and Alexa, you are immediately struck by the level of ease, familiarity and cohesiveness of their conversation together. They build off each other’s ideas, sharing the same open vision. Alexa and Flora spoke about their rebellious side when growing up, night clubs and late outings, the feeling of warm, slightly sweaty skin. I tried to recreate their attention to intricate tailoring, architecture of design, their care of detail, all these very feminine aspects using these strong and signature materials like cardamom, safraleine, and leather.
According to the Seven New York website, only 3,000 bottles of each fragrance are produced. A percentage of the proceeds from the sales will go to War Child International, a charity that works with children all over the world to "reduce poverty, provide education, and to defend their rights."
