I asked my mom if she's familiar with the brand Fiorucci as I've never heard of it before and all of a sudden, she exclaimed with such delight and said "WHY OF COURSE! I used to have a lot of pants from Fiorucci and...."- and the stroll down memory lane ensued until dawn.
What I've gathered was, Fiorucci was a famous Italian fashion label in the 60's until the early 90's. They're best known for their avant-garde/vintage/pop styles drenched in a wild splatter of colors, so to speak. Did a little research about the brand and I must say, they've got awesome designs!
But times have changed and even though Fiorucci remains, it was left behind, unfortunately.
But Fiorucci has risen from the ashes, renewed and more ready than ever to take on the new trend and generation! In 2011, they started with a big, successful comeback in a denim collaboration with Swedish brand Ikea featuring supermodel Naomi Campbell and for 2012, they treaded the sweet, sweet path and released Icy Fantasy, a succulent fragrance for youngsters!
Inspired by the ultimate Summer cooler, Ice Cream, Icy Fantasy is a fruity-floral gourmand fragrance with melt-in-your-mouth notes of juicy red fruits, red lollipop, Musk, Vanilla, and Sandalwood. It is housed in a collectible, Ice Cream- inspired flacon.
Speaking of Ice Cream, I just had one now. My, this post made me crave for sugar so bad-that means I have to work out later! :D
Fiorucci is only available in 50ml, and retails at P2,500.00. You may purchase this fragrance in all leading department stores nationwide.
