Roberto Ugolini - Blue Suede Shoes

Classic masculine elegance, aromatic sophistication and luxurious finesse!

THE FRAGRANCE

With so much dynamic inspiration, it followed that a scent named for these Blue Suede Shoes had to be equally dramatic and full of character. Visualized by creative director Herbert Stricker and executed by perfumers Blanca Dalmau and Christian Carbonnel, this scent is a rock and roll scent. Immediately, Blue Suede Shoes shows its fresh, herbaceous and spicy character. Tart bergamot and aromatic lavender are accentuated by anise and pepper. The heart notes exude a woody and rather dry tone. Cedarwood contributes significantly to this, but also helps to tame the rambunctious patchouli, fine amber and creamy sandalwood triad that emerges in the base to support the woods. The fresh, spiced woods are softened by an almost creamy-sweet combination of grassy vetiver, bittersweet tonka been and mossy labdanum. The elegant steel blue bottle upholds the message that Blue Suede Shoes is an expressive citrus and aromatic woods fragrance, equally appreciated by gentlemen as by ladies.

THE INSPIRATION

Blue Suede Shoes refers not only to the material but - of course - to the famous song of Elvis Presley. A legendary piece of music history, this eponymous rock 'n' roll song by Carl Perkins was released in 1956 and is one of the most successful singles ever. That same year, the King, Elvis Presley, recorded a slightly faster cover version. Although not planned as a single, it landed in the single charts and made the songworld-famous. The lyrics are witty, formed of the words of someone who truly idolizes his blue suede shoes: "Do what you want, hit me down, light my house, steal my car ... but just do not step on my blue suede shoes."
