Type B,C,D by Henrik Vibskov

Edgy Danish fashion designer Henrik Vibskov has teamed up with French perfume giant Givaudan to develop a collection of unisex fragrances called TYPE, available in three scents, for three specific moments in three different cities: Type B (Berlin), Type C (Copenhagen), Type D (Damascus). Playing with the simplicity of the cities’ initial letters, the Eaux de Toilette  reflect some of the characteristics of each of the represented cities: Type C is reminiscent of the salty air of Copenhagen’s harbour, Type B captures a cold winter’s day in the former Eastern part of the city, where – even today – numerous buildings and houses are heated with coal, Type C is inspired by the fantasy of the Middle East and the ancient marketplaces of Damascus on a hot summer’s day. The bottles and scent are manufactured in Grasse.
