Designer Andrea Vargas Dieppa (co-founder of the shoe brand Dieppa Restrepo, which seeks to blend classical artistry into modern utility) has created a line of aromas which come in vials that can be worn on the body. 

The fragrance line is called Monolito and it’s a joint venture with French perfumer Barnabé Fillion; the scents are crafted in France while the vials are handcrafted by Colombian artisans and come in geometric shapes which can be worn as rings or necklaces. Dieppa’s goal was to marry the old and new with the fragrant jewelry, as in antiquity, vials were worn as utility pieces to carry liquids and solids and were always refilled when empty.

The designers have bestowed the name “Shandy Shandy” upon the first scent, which is described as smelling of “musky suede and sensuous jasmine along with bursts of crisp juniper and woody myrrh to bewitching effect,” according to Vogue. About the name, Dieppa says that it “came from a book I read about a secret society the Surrealists had for a short period of time. To them, shandy meant indescribably cheerful, volatile, and lunatic. That was the feeling I wanted to evoke for this first scent.”
