Collaborative Fragrance Unveiled: Aromatic Journey Inspired by Literary Magic
London-based perfumery 4160 Tuesdays is releasing 500 bottles of "Vianne’s Confession," a unique fragrance created in collaboration with author Joanne Harris, timed to coincide with the release of her new novel, *Vianne*. This prequel to *Chocolat* explores Vianne Rocher’s return to France and her discovery of magical chocolate-making. Perfumer Sarah McCartney worked with Harris to craft a scent inspired by themes from the book, incorporating notes like unsweetened cacao, rose, geranium, oakmoss, and smoky labdanum. The fragrance evokes imagery of salty skin, deep woody incense, sunshine, rain, and earth. The launch is set for May 22, 2025, with an earlier collection option at the Barnes Fragrance Fair on May 17, 2025.
