Fendi said on its Instagram “An exclusive, multi-sensory experience in the making: introducing the #FendiFrenesiaBaguette in scented Selleria leather, created in collaboration with the world-renowned French perfumer @franciskurkdjian.”
In the limited edition collection, which launched this month, there are three bright yellow-and-white iterations of Fendi’s iconic Baguette handbag, which was originally designed by Silvia Venturini Fendi in 1997. There’s a classic Baguette size, a slightly larger version, and a nano bag. And they’re all made with Selleria leather that has been infused with the brand’s new fragrance, FendiFrenesia.
Master perfumer Francis Kurkdijan created the scent which is yet to be released. The brand described it as “leathery” and “musky” and it can last for as long as four years.
A complimentary miniature bottle of FendiFrenesia will be given with each of the bags, which you can use on-body or to refresh the bag.
At this stage, the complete line is only available at Fendi’s Miami Design District store in the U.S., however the nano version of the bag can be found in Fendi’s online store.
You won’t want to wait until Christmas, however, as it is only available until December 20.
Silvia explained the inspiration behind the concept: “A bag is something so feminine, like the best friend of a woman, she holds all her life in it, her secrets. And a fragrance is something that is really one of the most personal things for a woman.”
The scent has been created by master perfumer Francis Kurkdijan and is a “leathery and musky” fragrance that will last up to four years!
The bags also come with a mini bottle of the FendiFrenesia perfume, so you can spritz it on yourself to complement your new-fave accessory – or spray it on to the hidden card inside the bag to enhance the scent.
Here’s the catch: You can only get the nano Baguette bag via Fendi’s US and Europe online stores, and only until December 20, unless it sells out sooner – and you know it will.
The rest of the collection is available for a limited time at the Fendi boutique in the Miami Design District.
Prices start at £430 for the Scented Nano Baguette.
