Francisco Costa and Cindy Bruna celebrate AROMA, the first Costa Brazil fragrance
It was in Paris that Francisco Costa celebrated the launch of AROMA, the very first Costa Brazil fragrance. Brazilian fashion designer and beauty enthusiast created his eco-conscious brand in 2019 to capture the rich and natural essence of his native country. A marriage of white jungle flora, patchouli, sandalwood, vetiver and amber accord, AROMA evokes the Amazon at dawn and the resin of breu branco. Last but not least, Costa Brazil’s first fragrance comes in a small, refillable red oak box, which the Maison’s friends discovered on Thursday night at the Dover Street Parfums Market in the presence of Francisco Costa, Adrian Joffe and Jordan Barrett, the face of AROMA. The cocktail party was followed by a dinner at the Hotel du Grand Veneur, orchestrated by Rio’s starred chef Raphael Rego, where Cindy Bruna, Andrew Taylor-Parr, Sarah Andelman, Haider Ackermann and Amanda Sanchez were blown away by the new unexpected flavors. Later, they enjoyed bossa nova classics during a live performance by Bebel Gilberto. A look back at the launch party…
