Description
Tahiti at dusk: the air thick with the scent of tiare and frangipani, the lagoon turning from turquoise to violet, and a young woman tucking a flower behind her ear before walking down to the beach. Her grandmother, watching from the porch, smiles and remembers doing exactly the same thing on the evening she met the man she would marry.
This maroon box brings a touch of that island romance home. Its deep, wine-coloured surface is painted with exotic flowers, lush and dramatic, and inside it holds two little glass perfume bottles, a lovely detail that turns any vanity into a small sanctuary. It is a wonderful gift for someone who has honeymooned in the tropics, a traveler who collects scents from every place she visits, or a woman who simply loves bold, warm colours. Place it beside a seashell, a framed photograph from a beach holiday or a bowl of jewellery, and it will glow quietly in the evening light. The maroon tones pair beautifully with gold, rose and deep green accessories, and the tiny bottles are perfect for a sample of a fragrance discovered on a trip.
