Introducing Coach Open Road, a new fragrance for men inspired by friendship, adventure and the optimism of a road trip along the American West Coast.
THE FRAGRANCE
The aromatic eau de toilette opens with crisp, refreshing top notes of juicy red apple and sparkling lemon Primofiore, reminiscent of the winds of adventure. These notes are accentuated by an energizing dose of spicy Sichuan pepper, followed by a vibrant blend of lavender and clary sage, transporting us to places so far from our familiar urban landscapes.
Finally, the fragrance dries down to a contemporary duo of patchouli, vetiver and the woody softness of cedarwood, a tribute to the landscapes we cross to reach our next destination.
THE INSPIRATION
Coach Open Road is inspired by friendship and adventure, and the feeling of spontaneity, optimism and endless possibility both evoke. Perfumer Jean-Christophe Hérault captures the vivacious spirit of driving down the West Coast in search of adventure, creating a dynamic scent that unfolds scenically over time. The spontaneous energy and nostalgic lens of the campaign reflects the fragrance’s dynamic blend of crisp and vibrant notes.
THE NOTES
Top: Sichuan Pepper, Red Apple, Lemon Oil
Heart: Lavender Accord, Lavandin Enfleurage Absolu, Clary Sage
Base: Vetiver, Patchouli, Cedarwood
THE BOTTLE
The bottle is crafted of transparent glass, while the fragrance itself has a grey-blue shade reminiscent of the coastal horizon. It is finished with a gunmetal cap inspired by the house’s iconic turnlock hardware, and an engraved “C” on the bottom, a detail that nods to Coach’s Signature.
THE PACKAGING
Featuring Coach’s iconic Horse and Carriage logo printed in gunmetal effect, the elegant box is finished with a subtle leather texture—a reference to the house’s heritage in leathercraft.
