The new perfume creations are meant to olfactorically reflect Victoria Beckham's memories of certain times, places and experiences.

The first splashes exude the fresh citrus notes of Calabrian bergamot together with the spicy nuance of black pepper. In the heart, warm chords of amber and incense unfold, surrounded by a fresh sea breeze. The base of musk, patchouli and vetiver gives the fragrance an earthy depth.

"Portofino '97"  is meant to capture the exciting early stages of romance - the tingling adrenaline, the game of flirtation and falling in love. The fragrance pays homage to Victoria and David Beckham's first trip to the Italian coast in Portofino. To recall the waters of the Ligurian Sea, the bottle was designed in blue.

Suite 302 - Inspired by the Anniversary Travels in Paris

An alluring rendezvous. An entrancing escapade. The intoxicating parfum of glamour. Victoria Beckham conjures the sumptuous spirit of whirlwind weekends in Paris in the memory of Suite 302.

The composition of "Suite 302" opens with the fruity notes of black cherry and red pepper, followed by a sensual floral heart of musk, violet and centifolia. The base note reveals the masculine elegance of papyrus and black leather, rounded off by the warm nuances of tobacco.

The fragrance is an ode to a deep love, captured in the memories of Victoria and David's anniversary trips to Paris. These adventures took them from muted hotel rooms where delicate florals and spicy peppercorns filled the air, to intimate midnight strolls along the city's winding streets, accompanied by a seductive and masculine scent trail.

The white bottle is a tribute to the silky white dress by Italian fashion designer Roberto Cavalli, which was worn by Victoria.

San Ysidro Drive - Inspired by a new beginning 

A burst of energy. A new beginning. The healing power of perfume. Victoria Beckham captures the mending and motivating spirit of mindfulness in the memory of San Ysidro Drive.

Sweet passion fruit and the exotic saffron flower open the fragrance with a spicy and fruity freshness. In the heart note, rose absolute and delicate jasmine merge into a floral unit, before black amber, sensual vanilla and warm oud give the fragrance a sensual, warm depth.

Inspired by Victoria's move to Los Angeles in 2007, "San Ysidro Drive" is meant to capture the meditative memories of her time in California. The yellow bottle pays homage to sun-drenched Southern California.

The new unisex fragrances were created in collaboration with master perfumer Jérôme Épinette. They are both vegan and animal-free.
