Lithuania is pioneering a new type of national symbol to convey the character of the former Soviet Baltic state in a fragrant way — with a bottle of perfume. http://buscatuperfume.blogspot.com/

The foreign ministry has already sent bottles of the new fragrance to all ambassadors accredited to Vilnius. “We wanted to create something special, representing Lithuania and the Lithuanian character,” Mindaugas Stongvilas, an expert in emotional communication behind the project, told the Lithuanian daily Vilniaus diena.

The perfume “Lithuania” is a blend of sandalwood, cedar and musk intended to connote the Indo-European origins of the Lithuanian language, as well as Lithuanian strength of character, he says.

“For Lithuanians to identify themselves with this perfume, we’ve added the smell of wood fires that can be associated with pagan rituals, as well as moss and wildflowers.”

The perfume was created by French perfumers Galimard.
