First, choose your eau de parfum, then select an exclusive magnifying essence. Now you are ready per un viaggio nell’Italia autentica.

Allegra is the new personalized fragrance experience from Bvlgari. The candy-like bottles will bring colorful and superlative Italian emotions from the energizing energy of the Italian Riviera to the joyous celebrations of Venice.

French perfumer Jacques Cavallier created an Italian sensorial experience with its new Bvlgari Allegra fragrance collection. With five eaux de parfums and five magnifying essences, Bvlgari Allegra offers myriad combinations to create a uniquely personal scent. From the composition to the bottles inspired by colored gems, this fragrance collection is both joyful and precious.

The idea is each of the fragrances can be combined with an essence to create a truly personal scent. The five Magnifying essences have white bottles, symbolizing the purity of the ingredients: musk, bergamot, rose, patchouli and vanilla. These natural gems echo Bvlgari’s celebrated jewelry expertise.

“All roads lead to Rome, all magnificent ingredients lead to Rome, and all fragrances lead to Rome,” says Jacques Cavallier about his creations for Bvlgari. Inspired by the history and lifestyle of Italy, Bulgari master perfumer put his passion and art into crafting the five Bvlgari Allegra eaux de parfums and five Magnifying essences.

Jacques Cavallier-Belletrud is a French perfumer formerly with the Swiss fragrance and flavor company Firmenich, who currently works for Louis Vuitton of the LVMH Luxury Group. He has created or collaborated in the creation of over 80 fragrances and perfumes for fashion house brands such as Parfums Christian Dior, Parfums Givenchy, Issey Miyake, Yves Saint Laurent and Lancôme.

The multiple perfumes combinations are the fruit of superb creativity.

For the fragrances, the citrus notes of Riva Solare evoke an endless Italian Riviera holiday, while the roses of Fiori d’Amore are like kisses in the eternal city. The gourmand amaretti and orange blossom in Dolce Estasi are inspired by the attachment to family and childhood memories. The cocktail of fruity notes in Rock’n’Rome echoes a spritz aperitivo shared at sunset. And the chypre accord of Fantasia Veneta with patchouli, peach and vanilla is an invitation to extravagant Venice masked balls.

Bvlgari chose artist and model Solange Smith to embody the different facets of the new fragrance collection. From a dip in the Mediterranean in Capri to a café terrace in Rome, Solange embraces the eaux de parfums and essences in a whirlwind of joy, love and exuberance, a perfect ode to Italian dolce vita.

The glass bottles are inspired by Roman columns and the colors of precious gems, like the ruby red and purple amethyst of Fantasia Veneta.

The Bvlgari Allegra collection is made entirely in Europe and protected by packaging that uses recycled materials. The glass bottles are designed to facilitate recycling.

Bulgari also launched the BVLGARI Allegra Discovery Set for $173.00.

Swiss Alp Watch Final Upgrade: H. Moser & Cie unveils final version of the original Swiss smartwatch

This one-of-a-kind conceptual piece pays tribute to the codes of connected watches, incorporating refined Vantablack technology with traditional, fine mechanical watchmaking.

Eternal timekeeping without the hassle of notifications, sounds and charging cables – take a look at H. Moser & Cie’s final version of the original Swiss smartwatch.

No updates required, no lousy autonomy, no unnecessary features, no annoying notifications, just the only reminder you ever really need: To disconnect from all the noise and cherish each and every moment. This is the H. Moser & Cie Swiss Alp Watch Final Upgrade, the ultimate edition in the series that has championed traditional watchmaking since 2016.

The Swiss Alp Watch Final Upgrade is a concept watch, a symbol of the end of the Swiss Alp Watch collection, production of which will cease.

Similar to previous models from this line, the Swiss Alp Watch Final Upgrade is inspired by the modern design of smartwatches, yet it is completely mechanical. With its 100% Swiss Manufacture movement and a minimum power reserve of 96 hours, it is developed to last and is perfectly equipped for the next generation. Instead of downloading information, the Schaffhausen manufacture thinks it’s time we recharged ourselves.

” A watch must remain an expression of emotion, make you dream and perform its main purpose: To display the time.” -H. Moser & Cie luxury watch manufacture.

The final edition of H. Moser & Cie.’s paradoxical, satirical and whimsical Swiss Alp Watch, a timepiece that mimics the look of a “smart watch” with the tried and tested ingenuity of a traditional, mechanical watch movement. The Swiss Alp Watch Final Upgrade is crafted in a DLC steel case and is paired with a Vantablack dial. Instead of a seconds hand, a running indicator reminiscent of “loading” symbol continuously turns at 6 o’clock.

Known to be the blackest material produced artificially, Vantablack and the blackened hour and minute hands perfectly evoke the standby appearance of the watch. This notion is further reinforced by the offset small second at 6 o’clock, redesigned for the occasion as a shaded disc made up of openings. Evoking the constant passing of time, this symbol serves as a reminder that the here and now is all that matters.

“This idea was conceived by a customer and friend of the brand, a true enthusiast and fan of the Swiss Alp Watch collection. He came to visit us with an extremely precise design and we immediately wanted to create this model, perfectly in line with our philosophy, with a touch of humour and a hint of provocation”, explains Edouard Meylan, CEO of H. Moser & Cie.

The MOVEMENT
The HMC 324 is a hand-wound movement, specifically designed for rectangular watches. It features a plug-and-play modular escapement and a power reserve indicator on the movement side, keeping the watch’s dial uncluttered.

FUNCTIONS
Reminiscent of the loading symbol of a digital device, the turning of the small seconds disc represents the mechanical equivalent – reminding the wearer of the fleeting nature of time.

HIGHLIGHT
Incorporating the darkest-man made material ever made, the Vantablack dial is made up of millions of carbon nanotubes which capture 99.965% of light photons. By limiting the light reflections, the dial gives off the impression of a black hole.

Last month, H.Moser & Cie unveiled the minimalist yet visually and literally striking Endeavour Concept Minute Repeater Tourbillon in a new special edition in titanium with an Electric Blue dial, a new color for the brand. The high-end timepiece is limited to 20 pieces.
