Dior Sauvage
The first new men’s fragrance pillar to be added to the Dior portfolio in over ten years, Dior Sauvage is a radically fresh composition, with a powerful name that speaks for itself. That was the way François Demachy, Dior Perfumer-Creator, wanted it: raw and noble all at once. “Sauvage immediately spoke to me,” he says. Featuring some of the most exclusive, concentrated, and refined raw materials, Dior Sauvage is a powerful and long-lasting fragrance, bursting with invigorating fresh notes and evolving into a sensuous, woody dry-down. Striking, straightforward and inspirational, Sauvage is the epitome of masculine appeal, creating a distinct, powerful moment that envelops the wearer and creates an unforgettable trail.

Exhilarating, fresh and confident, this salty fougere eau de toilette spray opens with a crisp cilantro burst of freshness and a cool tropical feel. A salty accord and the essence of ocean air bring a breezy vibrancy to the heart, while soft cedarwood at the base leaves a warm masculine sensual finish. The eau de toilette spray will be available for $72 (3.4oz); at Macy’s through summer
Bottega Veneta Pour Homme Essence Aromatique
Pour Homme Essence Aromatique Cologne begins with the pungent freshness of citrus characterizes this unexpected take on classic cologne, with a bitter sweetness that gradually releases woody accents and different aromatic features. The intensely fresh top notes vibrate with an exclusively-faceted Italian bergamot, countered at the heart by a strong masculine patchouli essence from Indonesia and an inebriating Siberian pine accord that recalls the powerful aromatic notes of Bottega Veneta Pour Homme. The signature screw, a distinctive element of Bottega Veneta’s masculine codes, is sealed on the bottle and on the outer packaging. The light blue-green box is adorned with a subtle intrecciato pattern, the house’s distinctive signature. The cologne is innovative and different, a finely textured pleasure that is at breezy and long-lasting, cool yet luxurious. The cologne spray will be available for $70 (1.7oz) at Saks and Nordstrom
Bottega Veneta Parco Palladiano Collection
Bottega Veneta Parco Palladiano is a six piece fragrance collection for men and women inspired by the Palladian gardens of the Veneto Region of Italy, where Bottega Veneta was founded. The collection features fine quality materials, artisanal craftsmanship, contemporary functionality, timeless yet innovative design. Each scent is an ‘olfactory trompe l’oeil’ capturing different moments and experiences in a Palladian garden, and the scents utilize the specific families of flowers, woods, spices and fruit trees unique to the area.
Parco Palladiano I represents an early moment in the morning when the sun shines on the magnolia trees, capturing the woodiness of the bark, the cool shade of the leathery leaves, and the strong sweetness of the petal.
Parco Palladiano II is a fusion between nature and architecture, the vertical scent of cypress leaves unfolds with a dual personality: a deep and dark green hand-in-hand with a stimulating bright freshness, further contrasted with the sharpness of pink pepper.
Parco Palladiano III simulates passing by a pear tree in a garden’s orchard. The warmth of the sun-ripened pear is met by an infusion of fresh mint leaves.
Parco Palladiano IV opens with the azalea flower, spreading its smooth and solar scent, an undertone of velvet chestnut adds texture to the fragrance, revealing a luxurious landscape.
Parco Palladiano V represents a late-afternoon pause under the shadow of a centenary tree near the vita’s aromatic garden. This fragrance brings the elegance of these gardens to life, combines the crispness of laurel with sturdy rosemary and soft sage leaves, creating a woody slightly spicy aromatic breeze.
Parco Palladiano VI centers on a sensual rose that is picked from the sun, brought inside the villa at night, and then the scent of the rose meets the warm woodiness of the furnishings.
Each eau de cologne spray will be available for $295 (3.4oz) at Bergdorf Goodman and Bottega Veneta boutiques beginning in June
