English saddlemakers in the Peris workshops of Hermés in the ’30s pave the nickname “ rug a barre,” or “rug with stripes,” to the saf- fran-yellow woolen horse blanket that was a hot seller with the gentry. Before long, the French craftsmen adopt- ed the name, which, with their accent, became “rocabar.” With Rocabar, the 161- year-old House of Hermes has bucked the unisex fra- grance trend by creating 2 scent that is decidedly mas- culine. Top notes of white cedar needles and juniper berries give way to a heart of cypress, red cedar and atlas cedar with a vase of balm and vanilla. The woodsy scent is encased in a clear glass bottle and enveloped ia a miniature rocabar blanket secured with a leather thong. The fragrance is exclusive to Holt Renfrew and Hermés stores in Canada, and avail- able in eau de toilette, after- shave lotion, alcohol-free balm and all-over shampoo. Price for the eau de toi- - lette, 100 mL, is $169. carefree summer! Just in time for summer, _ Dermal Laser Centre is having a 2 for I sale.
