In celebration of its 30th anniversary, KORRES dropped three limited-edition KORRES eau de toilettes inspired by Greece's three seas. Across all three scents in the fragrance collection, there's a clear throughline of freshness anchored by citrus brightness, with each eau de toilette layering in elements, whether woody depth, herbal edge, or spiced florals, that add dimension without ever losing that clean, invigorating character.
With opening notes of lemon, apple, basil and sea salt at its heart, Ionian Blue transports the senses to the citrus groves of the Ionian Islands. Cretan Blue bumps sea salt to the top, and expresses the minerality of Crete's shores with bergamot, ginger, orris rose, tonka and sandalwood. Completing the trio, Aegean Blue matches lemon, mandarin and cardamom with mastic tree absolute and cashmere.
