- 1. For the development and production of all your training materials. Efficient, friendly, flexible and fast. 54b High Street, Fareham, Hampshire, PO16 7BG www.ashfordtraining.co.uk 0845 555 6565 Emotional Olfactive Landscapes This collection of five Eau de Parfum fragrances have been created by Italian noses Marie Salamagne and Maurizio Cerriza. Named after Italian locations, each fragrance is reminiscent of a time or a place within each region thats captured in a Polaroid by photographer Laura Sciacovelli. Cortina is a rich and persistent fragrance, supported by a vetiver background softened by musk and made gentle by musk mallow. This mixture is enriched with persistent and overflowing floral essences, and a touch of lively pink pepper. Green notes of ivy and violet rise rapidly from this fragrance. Sicily is a luminous and mineral fragrance, transparent yet full- bodied. It creates a dreamlike atmosphere by weaving together precious and noble raw materials, such as agarwood and myrrh, plus the unusual notes of hay and helychrisum. Sicily is in the light and glow of neroli and freesia, and in the baroque intertwined wood. Beautyoverview Sardinia, a land of contrasts, is celebrated with a green and fresh fragrance that blends green notes (tea leaves), flowery notes (broom) and woody notes (cedarwood and vetiver). Freshness arises from this fragrance. Rome evokes two apparently contradictory feelings, strength and sweetness, by carefully mixing exclusive ingredients that are active in stimulating succession: incense, reminiscent of the mystery of everything holy; patchouli for sensuality; and elemi that brings you back to vetiver. Venice is a dense and captivating fragrance that gathers up its elements and transforms them into notes and harmony. From the first all the ingredients appear clearly overcoming the traditional head, heart and base notes that are associated with most fragrances. The main theme is a rare raw material, Firmenich, which is the leading element of the sea breeze blend. All fragrances are 100ml and retail at 贈78 each. 2 beyond EXPECTATIONS AUTUMN/WINTER2010 HN Autumn Winter 2010_2011v26.in1 1 10/9/10 11:55:43 WelcomeEditors letter Welcome to the autumn/winter 2010/11 Beyond Expectation magazine your gateway to fabulous!

Take a look at some of the key pieces that show off the fantastic versatility of leather. Use our top tips to ensure this important purchase stays looking its most fab! Our top tips Treat your new leather products with a leather protector (making sure to carefully follow the instructions). Hang products on a wide-padded hanger (metal ones will distort the shape), leaving a gap either side to allow for breathing. Never use a plastic cover as they dry the leather out. Retain the shape: stuff handbags with tissue, and use a shoe tree. Try not to wear leather shoes daily, as they will absorb moisture from your feet. Allowing shoes to dry will prolong their life. Avoid very humid or dry environments, as well as direct sunlight. If your garment gets wet - dont put it on the radiator! Allow it to air dry and use leather conditioner to restore flexibility. If the leather gets wrinkled allow it to hang out naturally, though you can iron it if you wish. Set the iron on the rayon setting, and use brown paper between the iron and the leather. Remove winter salt deposits by sponging them off with clean water. Dont spray perfume or hairspray near leather as they will stain or discolour it. Consider wearing a scarf with jackets to avoid your skins oils being transferred into the leather. If your leather does need cleaning, you can attempt it yourself using mild liquid detergent or saddle soap (making sure you try a hidden patch first). However, it is best to get it cleaned professionally. But even then, not all cleaners will know the correct ways of cleaning leather so make sure they do! And dont forget that professional cleaning includes refinishing the colour tint, as leather will lose some of its dye during the dry-cleaning process. Be prepared for a possible change in colour, and make sure that matching items are cleaned together.
