Istanbul by Gallivant

This feeling of an ancient city, but with a freshness, a modernity. An old luxury and a new confidence. East meets West.

Sometimes clichés are in the popular imagination for all the right reasons. This is the meeting place of continents and cultures. The metropolis at the crossroads.Coffee, creaminess. Leather. Suede. Spices. Incense. Waking up in Moda, crossing the Bosphorus and a balmy night in Karaköy.

“You have created some divine perfumes, presentation was terrific... you have something special.”
