Calypso St. Barth: Calypso Cares & New Fragrances
Continuing its Calypso Cares charitable initiative, which launched in 2012, luxury lifestyle brand Calypso St. Barth has partnered with online re-commerce site Fashion Project and the organization She’s The First to help girls in low-income countries become student leaders and break cycles of generational poverty. Through May 18, customers can bring in their like-new clothing to Calypso St. Barth at Royal Hawaiian Center, or make a monetary donation on the brand’s website, and receive a 20-percent discount on their purchase. All donations will then be sold on Fashion Project’s shopping and charitable online platform, with proceeds going to She’s The First. Calypso St. Barth also recently debuted two brand-new eau de toilette and candle scents, Casablanca and Figue. Casablanca, a carefully selected blend of coconut, labdanum and violet, and Figue, a fresh burst of Mediterranean wild fig, heliotrope and a touch of vanilla, join the brand’s cultfavorite scent Mimosa, an enticing blend of orange, rose and jasmine.
