On the return journey from Somerset in the Bentley Flying Spur, I pulled over for a zoom meeting with perfumer Ane Ayo to launch the new Bentley Momentum Unbreakable fragrance for men.
Ane Ayo is a huge star in the perfume firmament. Having created fragrances for Lalique and many other well-known brands. Ayo spent her childhood in Spain (she has a gorgeous Spanish accent still), then studied in the UK and Germany before settling in France.
