To celebrate their new musical pairing 'DUO', lead singer of acclaimed band The Kooks, Luke Pritchard and his singer-songwriter wife Ellie Rose have joined forces with world renowned perfumer Antonio Gardoni of Bogue Profumo to create LiTA, a stunning unisex perfume in a collaboration of scent and sound. The perfume is named after their song 'Love in the Afternoon' and is inspired by the mood of Luke and Ellie’s upcoming album producing a dark and smoky aroma with raw ingredients including patchouli, ylang ylang and tobacco.

“Music and perfume share a lot of similarities like notes and structure, they both help set the mood and create atmosphere. Using Duo’s music for inspiration, I wanted to produce something that echoed their dark, smokey, lustful sound. This is a perfume about love. A tale of our inner demons, rising to meet, in a new world of their making. I chose benzoin and myrrh for sweet tears, vetiver for great depth, flowers for new romance, coriander and thyme for more freshness. At all times, the perfume oscillates between darkness and green tones, but remains warm. Balsamic, flowery and aromatic, this fragrance speaks of itself; top quality ingredients and dramatic contrasts. Shifting between sticky resins and luminous flowers, herbs and spices with a touch of fruit, the perfume dries down to a heart of darkness, hallowed by an aura of emerald green. Love has worked its magic." - Antonio Gardoni
