Lili Bermuda has introduced three new fragrances especially to mark the 400th anniversary of Bermuda.

Isabelle Ramsay-Brackstone, perfumer for Lili Bermuda at The Bermuda Perfumery in St. George's, said yesterday that each fragrance was created to evoke a different time in the Island's history.

Somers, a men's fragrance named in honour of Sir George Somers who established the first settlement in Bermuda, is a warm blend of Bermuda cedar, sweet licorice, olivewood bark and amber.

Petals, a women's fragrance, is a designed to be a modern homage to the romantic years of Bermudians dancing to the calypso beats on the warm and sultry summer nights. Petals is a composition of night blooming honeysuckle, intense jasmine sambac and watery orange blossoms.

South Water is a young fragrance for men and women, and represents a Bermuda that is confident, relaxed and exotic. South Water is a blend of sun-drenched tangerine with ozone breeze, coconut milk, juicy guava and sea salt.

"It has been a fantastic challenge to put together this lovely collection of fragrances," said Ms Ramsay-Brackstone.

"I am very excited to introduce these fragrances and I know Bermudians will be proud of these authentic Bermuda creations, crafted and made right here in St. George's, Bermuda."
